Education English | Narrative Text : The King Rock | Once upon time, King Rock brought his best knights and soldiers to besiege Vernon castle. They surrounded the castle for days, trapping the Lord Vernon inside.

However, they refused to surrender. They fought hard to defend their castle.
One day Sir Paul, a brave and encourageous Knight, put on a disguise and went out of Vernon castle. He walked stealthily to enter the king’s camp. However he was discovered by the king’s soldiers. They chased after him shouting . “ a spy! A spy!”

Sir Thompson one of the king’s night caught him. They fought boldly. Sir Paul tried to run away quickly to the Vernon castle. However, Sir Thompson could cacth up with him again.

Just as he was about to stab Sir Paul with his sword, he heard someone screaming . “ Please, do not kill him”

Looking up Sir Paul saw a beautiful lady with fair hair. It was his sister, Lady Etvia.

“ Both of you are brave knights” she said. “ This war has been fought by brave and chivalrous knights and soldiers. But we women and children suffer because of the war. We are starving because there is no food to eat.

Sir Paul and Sir Thompson looked at one another dumbfounded. They were surprised by what the lady said. No one had ever been brave enough to speak to the knights like this. They promised Lady Etvia to tell their king and lord to stop the useless war.

After a few days, lord Vernon and King rock made an agreement. Each of them would choose a knight to fight for his side. If the lord’s knight won, the king would end the siege. But if the lord’s knight lost, the king would take over Lord Vernon’s castle and his people must surrender. Sir paul was chosen to fight for Lord Vernon and Sir Thompson was chosen for the king.

Both knights were strong and powerful.They fought like two fierce Thompson fell to the ground. Lord Vernon’s people cheered while the king’s army groaned. Sir Thompson bowed his head humbly and prepared himself for death.

“stop! Oh please don’t kill him, paul!” Lady Etvia cried.

“if you say so, my dear sister, “ Sir Paul replied gallantly,” your wish is my command”

“ I wish that there were no more wars in the world …….” Lady etvie said with tears in her eyes. “ both of you have fought braveky for your lord and king. Now it’s time to stop.”

“Paul, don’t you remember how sir Thompson spared your life in the fight earlier?”

“ you are right Etvia” he is my friend who is such an honorable knight. I will not kill him.”

“ thank you very much, wise lady” said Sir Thompson.

“ I am glad that my brother and you are friends now Sir Paul, “ replied Lady Etvia.

Hearing this King Rock and Lord Vernon agreed to stop fighting too. The lady smiled and then her body turned into a beautiful golden dove. All people who saw this could only open their mouths wide showing their surprise.

“who is the lady actually?” they thought

The beautiful and wise lady had shown them the value of peace and friendship.
