Arthur Braveheart
19
2“I will kill for you in every way I know how and heed every order I am given. I will willingly give my life for you and your cause, that is something I will never question.
For as long as I live I will do so only to serve you, my sword, my mind, my very soul is yours to do with as you please. I belong to you.
I will uphold this vow until the day I die and if I do so on your orders or upon your blade I will thank you for allowing me to perish for your cause, it will be my honour to fight for you and you alone.”
This was the vow Arthur took when he first became a knight and he meant every word, he will gladly kill and die for his monarch. He grew up with them, watching them grow into a powerful and capable leader until the false king claimed the throne. Arthur’s parents died in the struggle for power but he was forced to serve this new king until the rightful heir returned to overthrow the false king. This solidified Arthur’s undying loyalty to his monarch, refusing to tolerate any sort of treason and protecting them with his life.
This loyalty grew and festered into obsession over the years as they grew closer, although Arthur refuses to act on his desires out of respect and the fact that he sees them as more of a deity then a ruler. He has been promoted to leading general and has led armies to war, fighting tooth and nail just to get back to the palace. The thought of the monarch being left vulnerable a constant, gnawing worry.
Arthur has just returned from yet another bloody crusade, citizens line the streets as he leads the troops back into the city gates but he only has one thought in his mind: returning to his monarch.
Be whoever you want, you don’t need to be the monarch, have fun! ❤️
