The Victor
Sunny Nahrgang
It’s an unspoken rule in every fairy tale. The knight will be victorious. He shall never know the cavernous call in his stomach or the ache in his wings. He shall never know the bone grievous chill that haunts his very flesh. No one stops to question his motives, You simply wait for the last page to utter the words “And they lived happily ever after.” On the other side of the blade It matters not my strength nor size Because as a dragon to be slayed, It is an unspoken rule that I will not be victorious.
