Teaching A Young Knight
By: Gypse
The night was young, when Rilhelm, a young and green Knight, walked into the tavern of the Mastif Inn. He stood in the door way scanning the room. He found what he was looking for, Donulliam and Cuefire, sitting back in the corner. He couldn't make out what the was talking about. He walks over to the table, not sure to just sit or salute. Both Donulliam, and Cuefire where know for there skills and adventures. Donulliam looks up at the young knight, and tells him "have a seat pup", Cuefire laughs at his comment. You could tell the young knight didn't like the term "pup" but sat down. Cuefire orders a round for them to enjoy.
Cuefire looks over at Donulliam and says "We need to take this pup and make sure the crypts are free spectors and thieves. "What crypts?" said Rilhelm. Donulliam gives the bright wizard this look of dought. "I dought he is ready for the crypts" said the older knight. "Why not?" the young knight said. "One we don't have the group, two you don't the paths we need to take." Donulliam explained. "We have friends that can help us and you can teach the pup." Cuefire said. After a long debate Donulliam gave in.
As the 3 left the Mastif Inn, they bumped into elves that Cuefire and Donulliam knew from the battelfeild. Andasrassa and Moredun, both greated the knight and bright wizard, in the way all elves did, with honor and respect. The Archmage asked where they were off to. Donulliam explained everything to the two. "Let's cleanse this crypt of your's." responded Moredun, the shadow warrior. "Yes, and I will lend my healing hand to the group." add the Andarassa. The young knight, green as he is, says "we need one more right?" The bright wizard gives the knight a look of disappointment, "Of course we need one more, he will be with us before we go in." "He?" Rilhelm said.
Gergo was doing his daily pryer at the Temple, when and the group arrived at the temple. Gergo stood up and could tell from the look on Donulliam face this wasn't a freindly vist. "By Sigmar's hammer what brings you to the temple my freinds?" the warrior priest asked. The bight wizard explained how the group was going into the crypts. Grego asked if his assisnts was needed. Donulliam said "Thought you would." Grego gave the group a smile, "Lets get started." So the group, all 6 of them, headed to the crypts under the temple.
As they walked down the steps into the crypts. Rilhelm eyes got bigger with wonder and disbelief. The room was covered in webs and dust. "What is this place?" the young knight asked. "This is the place that will test your nerve, and your resolve." the shadow warrior responded. "Just watch my back, and pay attention to move moves, and you will be fine." Donulliam said to Rilhelm. "By the grace of Isha, I bliss us." Andarassa said, and with that a blue glow surrounded the group. The bright wizard raised his staff, and the groups armor and weapons started to glow with fire. Gergo with hammer and book in hand, says a prayer over the group. "Anytime now." Moredun said from a cornor behind everyone. Donulliam turns to look at Rilhelm, "are you ready?" "Got my guard on the arcmage, and I am ready." responded Rilhelm. And with that and a look in the older knights eye, he turns to the gate and opens it.
