Drunken Parker

During the three days following the battle, Lord Parker remained in his mercurial amorphous phase, constantly shifting between his usual, rational self and that unhinged madman state.

It was like one moment he was the lord here, meant to command the troops and bring glory to his family. But the next moment he recalled his loss and turned tempestuous, finding fault at anyone and everyone nearby.

He was like a pendulum, constantly shifting back and forth between rationality and hystericalness.

And this unpredictability somehow made him even more dangerous than before.

Because think about. 

A mad dog you know to stay away from. But what about a dog who only occasionally has the fits?

The only thing to do then is either put it down or try and avoid getting in its bad as much as possible.

And the same thing was happening here.

Seeing Lord Parker's state everyone chose to give the lord a very wide berth.
