The Knight's Legacy

With grit and determination, a daring knight sets out to cement his legacy by defeating monstrous leviathans, discovering forgotten kingdoms, and even dabbling in the art of romance.

Meanwhile, a girl with just the same amount of determination is set on leaving her small village and discovering the world beyond its borders. Her heart is cold from a past loss, but could it be warmed? Could her desire adventure be quenched?

And how will this collide when the two find themselves at the feet of a cunning enemy?

This is being written as a fun exercise where two authors swap between each chapter. Chapter one written by bug, chapter two written by spinach, and so on until the last chapter, where both authors collaborate on the ending. There may be some exceptions.
POV switches in (nearly) each chapter.
