Kin (Théodred)
"Would have been king"
He liked his family, was proud to call the king his father, and the orphans his cousins. One shone brightly through the dark times – more a sister than a cousin – while the other stood strong, prepared to defend their country however necessary – more a brother than a cousin. Of course, the one thing that set him apart from them was that he was the heir to the throne and as such was expected to act differently. The ambush by orcs – orcs of their ally no less – put an end to his short life when otherwise he would have been king.
Exactly 100 words. Thanks to DarylDixon'sgirl1985 for this one. More prompts are very welcome (please use the form Theme, Character, "Prompt" e.g. Kin, Théodred, "Would have been king"). No OCs 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.
