Under the right circumstances it could be quite moving. However my mind works in funny ways and I automatically thought of a parody of it. If you don't mind i'd like to share it with you :D!
"but sire, you can't die! there's still so much to accomplish!"
"then I guess *cough* you'll have to carry on *hack* the mission..."
"But I am unskilled in the ways of the sword!"
"nonsense... *cough* I've taught you everything I know, I know you can do it."
"But sire... you havn't taught me anything :("
*sire begins giggling*
"Then I suppose you're screwed!"
"Very well. but before you die, one last boon, my lord." *Rips out the blade in the sire's stomach, and the blade beside him*
"HEY! WHERE ARE YOU TAKING THAT?!"
"What... this sword in your stomach?!"
"YEAH >:("
"To... to fight people, so I don't die miserably like you did"
">:("
"FINE, HAVE IT BACK!" *jabs back into stomach*
"*URGH*"
"t-thank you, my servant. Take my sword, complete the trial, and rise to be the greatest swordsman in history! I-I know you can do it. i-its your destiny..."
"I thought keeping you alive was my destiny..."
"AND WE ALL KNOW HOW THAT TURNED OUT >:(!!!!"
"OKAY OKAY, I GET IT, NEW DESTINY!"
"Sire, I've always respected you and served you with all my strength. now I shall rise above you, if that is what you wish"
"go, my loyal servant. Oh, one more thing. my son is in these games too, please don't kill him"
"What is his name?"
"You would think I would know wouldn't you?"
"You don't know your son's name?"
"Ugly little bugger he was... G... GeeHeUgly I think I named him (coughs up blood, and dies)
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *lays over body and cries!"
Sorry, just had to ;) I hope you enjoyed the little parody, humor is the spice of life of course. Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!
