It's Wednesday's challenge at Diving in the Word Pool again. 3 words to work into a 33 word mini-story. This week's words were dragon, fly, and knight. Here goes...
Father called the queen a dragon. In his hand she'd fly round the board, crushing knights and bishops. He always won. Until mother died. And then I found no triumph in my victory.

An amazing use of these words! You've created a very touching and poignant portrayal of a family torn - I'm really impressed - this is lovely!
take care

OOOOOOOO Those last few words hit hard! Very clever sense of setting and crunch line!
Very subtle Joanne. You deserve a large cheque, mate!
Aah, thank you.
