Golden Children (Arthur & dragon gen, PG, 100 words)
When Arthur was six, he faced down a dragon with a wooden sword.
The dragon (a monster as big as a mountain!) took one look at his toy sword and snorted.
"You don't scare me, dragon! Knights always kill the monsters in the end!"
"Prince Arthur Pendragon," the dragon said, as if Arthur had not spoken. "The world will kill and eat you. But not if you eat the heart of the world first."
Arthur frowned. The dragon wasn’t following the storyline.
"Two golden children sharing one destiny."
In the morning, he would think that it was all a dream.

merlin100's sword prompt & writing_game's exasperating promptThe dragon's prophecy is inspired by Sylvia Plath's poem "Mary's Song" ("O golden child the world will kill and eat.")
