There once was a dragon who claimed a human boy as its own, saving his life. From then onwards, he was loyal to that dragon, an unwavering fear of it and confidence in its protection.
He became a prince when he was returned to the humans, all seemingly flocking to him for protection. For he was the beloved of the divine, who wouldn't want to stay near?
As he grew older and gained more duties, the rumors grew. Why was he always left unscathed despite all tragedies that happened around him? Why was it always him that got to get away free?
Unrest grew in the kingdom.
Yet the now human prince always had one loyal friend, his own personal knight. With him until the end. The one who would never betray him. He loved his knight. He cherished him with all his heart.
So on that fatal day, when he was hunted down and harmed. The dragon was enraged at its beloved human possession being harmed and vowed to decimate all in the kingdom with no discrimination.
The prince pleaded with the dragon, but its mind was already set. Humans are fickle. They worship and tear down those they place upon pedestals. They didn't kill him now, but who's to say they wouldn't try again in the future? Who's to say they wouldn't succeed? The dragon would not risk it.
At the very least, when the dragon came. The prince was devastated to find his knight trying to fight it. To save the people of the kingdom. His unwavering fear of the dragon now hinders him, consuming him, and he fights his own knight. If the knight did not die by his hand, then it would be to the blazes of the dragon. And for some reason, deep down, the prince hated that idea.
He knew he could not convince the knight with words to back down. To beg him to stand to the side to stay with him. There was nothing he could say to change his mind. To change his heart.
And the prince was bound to win. Under the protection of his dragon, whose claws wrapped around his heart and kept him imprisoned.
So, he kills his knight. With tears in his eyes and an extremely heavy heart. Then he watches the kingdom that was supposed to be his home burn down.
For the only one who made it feel like a home was gone now. Died to his own two hands.
