Hello, my name is Christopher and I am 13 years old. My uncle has just told us that there will be another war. He wants to fight, but he is too weak to. Today I was just told that I must go in his place. Ooh! what a terrible thing. Wars are bloody and horrible. We have may knights why can't an extra one go in his place. I am terrified, I have been told that there is diseases out there and you have only a little bit of food, I mean there is so much one can die from. 
   My father wants me to be noble and courageous. I understand this. I also wish to be noble, strong, and brave. I will just go and be brave. I dont want to seem scared.
