Lady of the Lake | A 100 Word Story

#736 - King Arthur

The lake was calm this time of year. Calmer than usual considering the dark storm clouds overhead and the gale force winds rustling through the surrounding trees. Pebbles on the ground quaked. Something happened so catastrophic the earth was responding. All except the lake.

There was little time to say a prayer before the sword was hurled with great strength into the center of the lake. Enveloped by the water like a mother hugging her long lost child. And in an instant it was gone. Taken, with care, to the bottom.

It served its purpose, just as the world ends.
