Comments: Please review . . . Oh, and I'm not sure if Kel was the first known lady knight in a hundred years or hundreds of years – if I'm wrong just humor me.

Movin' On

Said we'd never go far, baby now look where we are

Kel staggered out of the Chamber, a grim look of determination on her boyish face. She had done it! She had become the first known lady knight in over a hundred years – despite the names and rumors that had challenged her, despite the people who tried to make her page and squire years a living hell. She had proven to the world that a girl really could become a knight – without the Gift.

Movin' on . . . from all the things I can do without

from all the shit people talk about

from all the haters who put me down

just wanna tell you I'm still around

Movin' on . . . from all the people who waste my time

I'm gonna take back what is mine

from all those who told me that I'd be gone

I'm gonna keep on keepin' on

Her mother gently cried, not bothering to wipe her eyes, for her youngest daughter, the Lady Knight of Tortall. Kel's father embraced her – also crying, though more subtly than Ilane. Kel than moved on to her ex-knight-master and her friends – hugging all of them. Raoul pointed her to the king, who had moved to show three woman behind him – Queen Thayet, Commander Buri, and Princess Shinkokami, who held together a draped shield. The shield undernieth the cover had the Mindelan sign – a gray owl – and two things that separated Kel's shield from her elder brother's. A pair of glaives under the owl, and the border of the shield - two rings; the first blue, the second cream – the coat of arms for a lady knight.
