The Fight in the Knight (Beginnings)

A Heroic Poem

By N/APublished 6 years ago 1 min read

There was an unruly beast in the days of old

One that ravaged the lands wherever it went

It had claws as sharp as swords

And eyes as red as its blood

Hairs as long as the branches of the largest trees

And teeth as tall as a man

It killed, wrecked, and obliterated whatever was in its path

And one day, the kings of the 5 lands convened

To devise a solution to this horrid problem

One king said "let us move our peoples to new lands, so the beast may bother us no more!"

Another king said "why not send our best men together to fight the beast?"

The kings agreed this would be the best course of action, and so preparations were made

The strongest, the smartest, the bravest 4 knights from each of the kingdoms were selected

They gathered their armor and swords

Their food and water

Mounted their horses, and took off to where the beast resided

But what started as a simple quest to slay a beast

Ended up turning into a grueling adventure

And a struggle for survival...
