The Knight And Family
“We need to move out,” The knight said. He'd lost track of the
amount of times he'd told her.
The princess replied, “But he's the one who brought us together,
and without my Dad how are we going to going to live in a castle
without being someone's servant? We couldn't take him just anywhere!
Or do you not want him to be with us.”
The knight looked at his armor, and his sword next to it. He hadn't
been adventuring in awhile. If he moved out he'd have reason to raid
evil fortress, caves and lairs for wealth for his princess. Dungeons
of all kinds. Like the old days. However now he worked mundane
hunting jobs or cheap teaching jobs at the knight academy.
“It's not him...it's being here, in this place.” The knight
placed his hand upon the princess's in a chivalrous fashion. He
learned that gesture in his knight's school when he squired.
A loud thump shook the ground and a huge, green dragon fell down. “Howdy, howdy new
bro and sis! So old Sir James is getting bored of my big ol' castle?
How about I take him for a spin 'round the mountains?”
The knight sighed. His princess looked oblivious as did the dragon.
He knew how to fight beasts, though the dragon proved to civil to
fight when he found him, but he didn't know how to fight other kinds
of problems. Maybe while flying on the mountains with the dragon
he'll find a way to reconcile a life of the mundane with this new
family. Or maybe this adopted dragon could be a new adventuring
partner? Fighting monsters involved the simple action of stabbing the
thing with your blade. He couldn't stab anyone into agreeing with
him. When he leaped onto the back of the dragon he decided to take
adventures with others one step at a time.
