Title: Ye Will Rating: G Prompt: Feelings and Emotions Category: up to 250 Word count: 202 Summary: Alanna shouldn’t doubt herself so easily.
:::
Alanna shifted uncomfortably and yawned, her eyes drooping from sleepiness. She was accompanying Coram on his late night watch, as she often did. They sat in a heavy silence, Alanna brooding because fencing practice had gone badly. While her humiliation had not been as great as her first attempt at freestyle, Aram Sklaw still had laughed heartily as she failed to accomplish any drill.
Coram sighed heavily, breaking the silence. “Ye alright?” He asked quietly.
She shrugged. “Enough so.”
“Ye’re not, but ye will be.” Alanna looked at him, her eyes dancing with questions. “Lass, ye’re goin’ to master the sword, just like you conquered Master Ralon,” he assured her.
Alanna shrugged again, looking off into the Royal Forest. Coram sighed and rested his hand on Alanna’s shoulder. “Lass, ye’re working hard. I’ve seen it. Ye think any of them spend their mornin’s wielding a sword heavier than they are? Ye’ll succeed. They won’t know what hit ‘em.”
Alanna didn’t look up and Coram sighed again. “Ye’ll do better than them, don’t ye worry. Ye need time, that’s all.”
Alanna looked up into Coram’s eyes, hopeful. “You think?” she whispered.
Coram grinned. “Ye’re being silly again, lass. I don’t think. I know.”

Aw, they make such a great pair! Everyone should have a Coram when they get discouraged.
