Duty (Aragorn)
"Taking his oath"
He'd spent his whole life running away. Of course, the death of his parents when he was very young and adoption by the elves helped him ignore his destiny, and the throne that awaited him in the citadel of the white city, near the borders of the black lands. But the elves never truly let him run. They called him Hope, a constant reminder of what was expected of him, and pushed him forwards, re-forging the broken sword in yet another reminder of his heritage. His ancestry caught him eventually and so here he was, crowned and taking his oath.
Exactly 100 words. Thanks to Aria Breuer for this one. More prompts are very welcome (please use the form Theme, Character, "Prompt" e.g. Duty, Aragorn, "Taking his oath"). No OCs or anime-filler characters, please, but any other character, however obscure, is welcome.
Oh yeah, if anyone's interested I'm now accepting fic requests. More details are on my profile.
