The Sword Master
(Swords with Souls)
Cover by Darren Joy
Dark Fantasy Fiction
(Adult content)
“The prince has baptized you, Sir Ganbold,” the king says with a nervous laugh.
He is confused by what happens next. Blood splatters his face and others. He has a vague awareness of Sir Ganbold rapidly marching out of the hall.
There is absolute silence in the hall until the prince screams out, “My sword hand!”
He instinctively draws out his sword as he wipes the blood from his face. Sir Olaf draws his sword and steps before the king. Sir Afamefuna rushes to the prince. In one sweeping movement he cuts off a section of his tunic, places his sword on the floor, and wraps the prince’s stump.
From the middle of the room, he hears the queen wailing, and to sum everything up, the king, looking pale and shocked says, “What just happened?”
