Two Swordspeople

We chose our path together long before we truly understood what we were doing. We could have thought about it harder, but at the time, we just decided that we both needed a partner to get us through a rough patch.

But then the rough patch became smooth sailing, and with things going so well, why change things? But then things got worse again. So we needed to stick out the bad times, and good times wouldn't last, so milk them.

This led to us sticking together until we couldn't survive without the other one.

Which our simultaneous deaths proved.
