I
am a simple soldier
I
am not the strongest man, nor the fastest. I am not the best with the sword or
the bow. I am not the quickest to get
the point or the wittiest with a retort. I can lift a great weight, run fast,
spar with a sword, hunt with a bow, laugh at a jest and respond with a
pun. I am not the best or brightest or
fastest or smartest or most flippant. Yet I do well in all areas.
Not
being the best keeps me humble and inspires me to strive for better. While
being amongst the best gives me the confidence to always push forward.
I
joined the Kings Army directly from the farm the day after my Day of Majority
rite. I was not driven out for dishonest actions, nor did I run from abusive
parents. I did not hunger for great
adventure though I did become restless in the tedium of a farmers life. In the
end my choice was simple.
The
King called and I answered.
This
is my story.
