AI Image generation – A knight’s Tale

Is anyone else impressed, excited and also kinda scared because of AI? I am!

I’ve been tasked on creating a story using AI generated images, so here goes my attempt at making an attractive one with Microsoft’s Copilot!

Let’s start with the general story:

Once upon a time, in medieval England, there lived an extraordinary hero known as the Knight of the Moon. His armor, bright as the moon itself, casts an ethereal glow wherever he went. But this knight was no ordinary warrior. He was the son of dragons, and his armor bore the mark of his lineage. His helmet resembled the fierceness of a dragon, instilling fear in the hearts of his enemies.

Bearing with a greatsword as sharp as the fang of a dragon and as big as 2 average-height males, he explored the lands. The sword was not just any weapon, it was crafted to resemble the claws and teeth of the mightiest dragons, imbued with their legendary power.

The Knight of the Moon was a formidable force, not only because of his dragon heritage but also because of the unique properties of his armor. Its shimmering surface absorbed the moonlight, granting him a supernatural strength and an imposing presence that commanded respect wherever he went.

Using the above text as a prompt, here’s my most liked Copilot’s result:

It even added a shield which resembles a dragon more than the helmet, but I still dig it.

Alas, not everything goes according to plan. Evil always manages to rise up. While our knight was walking a lonely road, suddenly the moon went red, he instantly knew what was going on; It was the rise of the Vampire Scourge! a sworn enemy of our honorable knight and who he thought was long gone.

This is the prompt i used: Evil always manages to rise up, he was walking a lonely road when suddenly the moon went red, he instantly knew what was going on; It was the rise of the Vampire Scourge! He’s a tall, long lustrous jet black hair, extremely pale skin with a blood lords outfit, More imposing, a bit more muscular and with a demonic gaze

Jeez! Someone give him a skincare routine!

Here, look at this cute kitty to forget about him for a while!

Back to our favorite knight’s tale.

They had a fierce battle, but it wasn’t looking too great for the Knight of the Moon, as the Vampire Scourge could sustain himself off of the nearby fauna, our Knight was holding up but it wasn’t going to be long before his body gave up. And so it happened, the Knight received a devastating blow by the Vampire Scourge which almost ended his life, but in a last-ditch effort the Knight decided to let his armor absorb the Blood Moon’s energy, knowing well it could corrupt him, but it was the only chance humanity had to be saved!

Quick parentheses, Copilot has a feature to upload a picture and use that as a reference, I used the picture above to have him kill the Vampire Scourge, but the results weren’t that similar!

Prompt used: Show him killing the Vampire King, who is extremely pale, buff, has long extremely black hair and has a demonic gaze

Our hero managed to end once and for all the Vampire Scourge, but the toll the Blood Moon’s absorption caused on his body and mind was almost irreversible, he didn’t go completely rogue, but was left in a numb and drone-like state, wandering forever the lands of his realm, hoping to gain back his memories, though he doesn’t exactly know what he’s looking for.

He still has a long journey ahead…

And here ends the Knight of the Moon’s story, giving up his own humanity to keep everyone’s save.

That’s it! In the making of this, i had to tussle a little with Copilot to give me the images i wanted, but it wasn’t too hard.

Hope you guys enjoyed!
