Brave

"The day that I found you, the day that you'd become our king.
Scrawny legs of yours could barely hold up the weight of your own body, I could tell you hadn't eaten in days. Yet there you stood.
A sword of no future, a shield of burden, raised in a guard of hope.
Even against a man like me, you would hold your ground. That's when I knew."

Sort of a story that I thought fit the mood of this piece :)
