Editing Chevalier (section)

=====Background=====

When George Kellerman was 15, an out-of-control truck crashed into his family's car. George was the only survivor, and he was in a coma for three years.

In those years, however, George was not unaware. Instead, he dreamed. It was a lucid, vivid dream, entirely consuming in its reality, and from George's viewpoint, it lasted decades.

In his dream, George was a chivalric knight, protecting his kingdom from evil forces. A swordsman of great skill, he lived through countless battles and adventures. Ultimately, he faced a mighty wizard, who unleashed a terrifying spell. The magical energies struck the knight... and George woke up.

It was very disorienting for him, being back in the real world. It took him over a year to recover physically, and with his family gone, his dream over, what was he to do?

He missed the world of chivalry-- the world in which he was a hero. He wanted to make this world better, and, realizing that he didn't have powers, instead became a teacher at an inner-city school.

But that wasn't enough. Yes, he was doing good, but there was too much violence, too many dangers that teaching alone couldn't handle.

George Kellerman missed his dream more than ever... and then a student of his was confronted by gang members. He'd been taking gym equipment back from the field, and before he knew it, he had a baseball bat in hand, and was in action, driving the gangsters off.

He'd only dreamed decades of experience with a sword. But, somehow, his skill was real-- he was a master of the sword. Or, in the modern world, a baseball bat.

He knew, then, what he had to do. Perhaps the real world had moved long past the age of chivalric knights.

But it had one again.
