Summary
The Cat King might’ve thrown a whole two-day tournament for Edwin, but knight errant Charles was the one who won it for him.
Charles had been able to ignore the swelling and the ugly purple bruises for the rest of the tournament through sheer bloody-minded determination. He’d used the same grit that had got him out of bed and reporting for duty as a squire at dawn even when his dad had beaten welts into his back the night before. But the soreness radiating up from his knee and out from his shoulder was getting harder to put aside, now he didn’t have the next match looming ahead. Now he didn’t have Edwin’s honour to defend.
Written for Payneland Week 2026 Day 5: Devotion.
