So, I picked up the gauntlet and accepted
hermitknut's challenge to write a series of drabbles based off Simon Armitage's translation of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. This is 1 of 5 that I did for the challenge.
Each drabble was to be based off a four-line rhyme taken from the larger poem This is the fifth:
He bowed to take the blade
and bared his neck and nape
but, loathed to look afraid,
he feigned a fearless state.
