- "Sire, you know full well that I will follow you until the ends of time, correct?" Gravel tilted his rocky head. The fallen ruler sat on a warm stone, starring off at the mist that covered his once frolicking kingdom, now shrouded in a great evil he could not imagine. The ruler forced his eyes to the only solider left, the only soldier by his side. and nodded. "Why do you ask this, Gravel?" he said smoothly, his tail swaying in curiosity. Gravel shifted uncomfortably, dust jumping off his rocky exterior. "W-well, sire, why do we run? The kingdom seemed the same as it always was as we left. But you say there is a darkness...i do not see such darkness.." The rock soldier sat, allowing his back to absorb the sunlight peeking over the mountain tops. The king sighed, deeply, and remained silent four many moments. His tail curled up. as he looked over to his rock soldier companion. "Gravel, do you know why I chose you to be in my army? Out of all the Rock Soldiers that the gods had prepared?" he cooed. Gravel snorted, jokingly curling his spine to make himself smaller. "Because I'm a runt?" The king grinned, flicking his tail, and shook his head. "No, my soldier, not because you were small. Because I saw a personality. A hot-head, a ready fighter, but mostly I saw a heart of gold. A heart that fights darkness...let me tell you a story, my soldier...." - oo boy! I had so much fun with these two! I entered for King and Rock, and I plan to enter for more! (they will have a interconnected story!) I'm sorry If i changed them to much!! I will also add good refs for them in the next project!
