The Death of a Dream...

It was a soft winter evening. The sun was out, and the old man had come to park with his ten year old grandson. Walking along the path on hardened snow, he was telling his grandson the story of the Knight of Azkalan. The glorious battle of Zendoch, where it was his small battalion of a one and twenty men fought the mighty Lord Danrodius of Prasille.
About how the brave knight led his men from the front, motivated them with his speech, guided them with his experience and set an example with his character! It was his qualities as a man who could bring out the best in his men, of a visionary that made him a great knight.
On the way home, and whilst in bed, the young boy was still dreaming about this great knight who could achieve great things, and somewhere deep within him, a belief took root that even he could achieve great things in life, and with sincere effort and hard work, great tasks can be brought to fruitful completion!
