Jumping on the Drabble Bandwagon

by whitecrossgirl

As the title suggests I have taken a running jump onto the drabble bandwagon but am only doing 7 because they're actually quite difficult to write. I may come back to them.

5. Embrace

AN: This is based on the prompt of 'embrace'. Basically something Arthur has to embrace to become a good king.

Arthur stared at the figure before him. It was hard to define any sort of characteristic to it. It shape shifted into different personas in the blink of an eye. When the figure spoke him, its voice was a melody of different pitches, paces, tones and accents.

"To become a great king Arthur Pendragon; you must willingly embrace me."

"What is your name? What are you?" he asked.

"You will know my name when you embrace me. When you know my name you will understand what I am Arthur Pendragon." The figure replied. Seeing no alternative; Arthur stepped forward and embraced the figure in its current form; a middle aged man. When he stepped back a moment later; the figure was that of a young girl; no older than twelve.

"Who are you?" Arthur asked, finally about to get his answer. For the first time; the figure smiled.

"Change."
