Ever since the beginning of time, valiant knights in shining
armour have followed in each other's footsteps demonstrating
their courage and military capability. Every one of them had been
taught strong values which ensured that whatever the outcome of
the battle, no knight would ever be defeated in his honour. The story begins at an unspecified time in the middle of two dark and obscure centuries with a little knight who was proudly riding his horse in a sprightly manner. He was both little by name and by nature. In fact, he was often mistaken for a little boy, but alas, it wasn't true - he was just small!
The funny thing was watching him ride his enormous horse (especially compared to him!). The beast was half blind yet vain, which is strange considering he was a makeshift horse. Just to mount the horse, Little had to use a lot of charm together with the help of a couple of knights always ready to hoist him onto the horse's back if everything went well.
However, it often happened that since Little made such a racket and the horse wouldn't keep still, instead of remaining in the saddle, the knight usually tumbled down and fell to the ground with a great thud. This would bring about great bursts of laughter from the other knights and the
horse would neigh mockingly in the background, as if that wasn't enough.
Little was so happy to be part of those brave knights who were on their way to defeat the Great Dragon and his master the Evil One.
However, he was extremely grateful to those knights for the wonderful fodder that they generously provided, especially on one occasion when he'd found it unattended and had stuffed himself
so much that in order to digest it had had to run non-stop for two days like a horse possessed until he'd eventually fainted two counties away.
