Title: Dove Crest Rating: PG-13 for child abuse because King Jasson is a terrible father. Word Count: 32 Summary: Roald dreams of having a dove crest. Notes: Written for mistrali’s “Dove” prompt. Thank you to mistrali for the inspiration. Dove Crest When Roald announced he would take a peaceful dove as his personal crest when he was king, his father slapped him so hard his lips cracked and stars swam in his eyes.

Sounds about right Poor Roald! This is so sad to read. Thank you so much for reading and commenting! My heart did break for poor Roald writing this. Roald’s desire for peace is something that I admire about him, and I can only imagine how much trouble the warmongering Jasson the Conqueror would have given him about that (and likely about not meeting Jasson’s ideas about what a tough man/leader should be like since I picture Jasson as a pretty terrible sexist). So I just wanted to write a piece that explored how hard it would have been for Roald to grow up as Jasson’s son and heir.
