Gawain is a proud, young knight. He follows orders without problems and walks the same path as his brothers, chasing their backs. There was never any other path for Gawain and he readily accepts all of his knightly duties. The next battle he needs to face has a bit more stakes. Its positive outcome could mean the end of war. For the first time, Gawain doubted his orders but did everything he could to protect everyone.
To win this battle sacrifices will be absolutely necessary. How will Gawain react to a battle that isn't fought by proper knightly procedure?
This is a short backstory for Gawain, a character featured in my and delirijumbaklave's Visual Novel:

Protector of the Crown
COMPLETED BOOK I was trained to be a weapon for the kingdom. I was forced into servitude to the King after my family was ripped from me. My new life was covered in the blood of my family...and now I had to protect the royal family who ordered my parents' death. They're all monsters, except for him...he was my charge and as much as I wanted to hate him, the prince was nothing like his vicious father. He was a warm light in my cold and dark world. I was supposed to be controlled, cold, calculating and deadly, but he made me crave freedom, warmth and all the things I thought died with my family. I no longer knew my path...but I knew it led to him. ****** Don't hesitate to let me know what you think of my book or if you see grammatical errors/plot holes! *16+ is recommended...sex is implied but not described (I came up with that little rhyme while I was brushing my teeth this morning!) and there are scenes of violence.Complete

Why do we Fight? - Volume I - For Honor
Good soldiers follow orders, but true warriors know what is right. Since the start of civilization, soldiers have been a part of every society. They are trained only for one thing: War. Though it is not necessarily a part of the human mentality, it has existed and ravaged over the millenias. Occasionally, a soldier would ask himself: "Why do they fight?" "Is it really worth the lives of our brothers and sisters?" ... "Does love bloom in the darkest of paths?" ++++++++++++++++++++ OC x Male reader insert Slow paced romance and may include in-game characters with actual personalities and interactions that I made myself, because come on. Naming NPCs without backstories? Makes the story kind of bland for me but meh, that's my opinion. Default name for the reader is 'Argen Lorderius.' Btw, I do not own any pictures and other stuff in the fanfic. Refer to the disclaimer on each chapter :/.Complete

Runaway! 1: The Boy Whose Name Rhymes With Fire
Yet another story that I cooked up, also based off of my experiences in high school, as well as my experiences with media, albeit... slightly more advanced experiences. 15 year old Jake Phyr is a knight of the nation of Vesturia, given the designation "monster hunter." And a high ranked one he is and should be, given that the nation of Vesturia is surrounded by many perils, hostile tribes, violent magical creatures and things, and people that can only be described as... "those that go bump in the night." But, in spite of all this, our hero manages... ... that is... ... until a strange mark is revealed to lie on his back. A mark that causes his entire nation, and more importantly, his entire life, to come violently chasing after him, seeking his end. The question is... can he get away? The story of the boy by the name of Jake Phyr. Enjoy! *** This is part one: The Boy Whose Name Rhymes With Fire. The great nation of Vesturia finds itself under attack from a strange enemy with an even stranger goal. However, and even so, luckily for Vesturia, our hero Jake is well on his way to administer justice upon the hooligans. And do so he does, of course, seeing as he is who he is. However, after...
