Only such deaths are befitting of a martyr.
A martyr lives forever in death, they live as something far greater than what they might have been in their life before death.
Even in death, they still serve a purpose, as a source of inspiration for generations to come.
You might well be the most intense person I've never met.
Well, in todays world, my words sound rather intense. But in the old days, our mothers would dye the hair of their sons with red henna, when going to battle, so that they would become martyrs.
The deal with the henna is, that usually a sacrificial animal unto god is dyed with red henna, and mothers would do so as to sacrifice their sons unto their people, by sending them away into battle with red henna on their heads, whether they died in battle or came back, it was the intent that mattered.
