In the second chapter of my story, this old man, past his eighties, a veteran tactician and scholar that have won countless battles for his country, now sulks in his tent, wants a change, thinking of becoming an educator instead and provide inspiration and etc etc. I've fleshed some other details about him as well.
The morbid events take place. And by the end of his POV, from his frail self, he feels younger and stronger.
Its really nothing much than that. But as a reader, for an important change toward a character, did I somehow 'rushed' that change for people to even care this old man was weak, fragile, and possibly senile?
His POV isn't even that long, about four thousand words only. What do you guys think? Any suggestions please? Thanks in advance.
