A Knight's Tale

In the makeshift chapel hidden in the narrow city back street, a lone knight keeps vigil on this, the eve of his calling. He kneels, broadsword clasped between his hands, his head bowed.

“If this be my destiny, grant me a sign.” He raises his eyes to the niche containing a plaster angel, lays the blade across his palms and offers it in service to the unseen entity ever present in this sacred place.

The door behind him swings open; a voice, carried on the wind, speaks.

“Behold Drogyn, Demonbane Truthsayer, I name thee 'Keeper of the Deeper Well' hereafter.”

Thanks. It was one of the first drabbles I ever wrote so choice of details was crucial.

Might I take this opportunity to persuade you to bring one of your genfics over here and post it? Miss Kitty springs to mind, I'd love to provide her with a basket on the comm.

Heh. I was just opening gmail to ask you whether one of my drabble series was gen enough. It does have pairings after a fashion, but is most definitely not romantic.

I was planning on posting Miss Kitty (or at least the first chapter), and Spike in Wanderland (not to be confused with The Vorpal Blade).

I thought I would start with a drabble or two first since I'm about to take off for the day, and probably won't be able to post anymore until late this evening.

I'd really like the whole of Miss Kitty here if you can bear the thought of re-posting a chapter at a time. It's such a unique style and so very different from anything that's been posted to date.

I'm not sure about the room drabbles. You might run them past shinodabear before you start posting.

Meant to say - Spike in Wanderland also has a place waiting for him.
