Title: Point of View Rating: General Prompt: Villain Category: Up to 250 words Word count: 106 Summary: It all depends on your point of view.
Ali Mukhtab watches the young prince of the North and knows him for an enemy.
He knows the grown man would march upon the Bazhir. His determination and strength, like wind, would wear away at them until they were gone.
415 generations of culture and knowledge lost. Everything he and every Voice before him had fought for.
Jonathan was an untried boy, but what he represented the Bazhir could not conquer.
However a war cannot be fought if there is only one side. He may never be forgiven, but Ali Mukhtab would ensure that the Bazhir and the people of the North became one.

Thankyou. The villain prompt is proving the hardest for me. I'm glad this one worked.

Wow that was incredible. No one writes Ali, you fit him perfectly. You did a good job of incorporating the Voice in there too.

Fabulous take on the prompt - not a perspective I've thought of before.

I'd pick a favorite part but then I'd just be quoting the entire ficlet back at you. This is awesome, and I love your Ali Mukhtab voice (oh god, the pun, it burnssss).

Great fic, I've never read one with this perspective before.
