I've decided... Here it is.

I have decided to give you the first page of "Arthur." I hope you like it and that you will want to read more of it. I should be having it read by and English teacher soon. So now, to appease your curiosity here is the first page.


"Arthur"
By Avalon Swiftwind


         "He's merely a child!" exclaimed Feldearak. 
         "That's why we called upon you, Feldearak," Paloberis explained.
         "What do I know of children?" Feldearak asked.
         "Of Uther's son, you know more than you let on," Paloberis said, taking Feldearak by the shoulder. 
         Feldearak stared at the torch on the wall. "Uther's son, a king. Arthur Pendragon, King of Camelot." The reality of Paloberis' words was still setting in. "Uther's death is certain then?" Paloberis' silence was enough of an answer. "And what of Arthur's mother?"
       "It is still unknown."
       "Then the boy must rule." Feldearak paused. "There is no choice." He sat down at the long wooden table in front of him. "Does the boy know?"
       "Kildare has been instructed to tell him in the morning," Paloberis said from behind him. 
       "He will be mortified. Crushed," Feldearak said. "I should be there. He will need comforting."


Want to read more? Unfortunately I'm still writing. I'm going to have it proofread and hopefully published but I have to finish it first. Please let me know what you think of the first page. 


Feel loved and safe.
