DvividaFAQs
It says Dvivida’s head was smashed by the club-blow, blood streamed like red ochre on a mountain, yet he arrogantly ignored the injury.
The comparison highlights the vivid sight of blood flowing over his body, like mineral-red lines on a mountain face, emphasizing the intensity of the combat.
Unchecked pride can make a person ignore clear consequences; devotion and humility protect one from the self-destructive insistence on ego.
