Hello there! So this is yet another Jack The Giant Slayer fic that is centred on Elmont. They are a number of short vignettes that I have written out that depict Elmont's journey to Knighthood, to becoming Princess Isabelle's guardian and beyond. Some will be longer than others, some shorter. I'm hoping that this will be an enjoyable read for you all. So here is the first chapter! :D
Born to be.
He was ten-years-old when he first held a broadsword in his hands, and the feeling was exhilarating. Whilst the sword was heavy, causing his fingers to turn bone white as they wrapped tighter around the handle and his arms trembled as the muscles inside screamed in pain, urging him to drop the sword, he still could not ignore the excitement, nor deny the pride he felt at his resilience when most of the other students around him dropped their arms or swords with an exhausted gasp.
To be a Knight one must be strong when grasping the broadsword. And he was strong.
The young boy with the light brown hair that changed into a reddish-brown when in the sun watched as the corner of his lips turned upwards into a smile that reflected back at him from the shining silver blade before him.
His lifted his jubilant blue-green gaze towards his mentor and captain, Araman, who smiled at him with pride. He took one look into the Knight's sparkling mahogany eyes and he knew:
He was born to be a Knight.
Was it any good? Continue to see more of Elmont's journey or dump it now, Jedi Kay? Let me know in a review please, guys. I'll love you all for it. :D
