This choice: Derrick Reign of Lorenthe • Go Back...
Chapter #2
The Fifth Knight
by: Unknown
You remove your helm and smile, showing all your pale skin and dark hair. Your muscles ache beneath the weight of the armor yet you know that the Sword of Eternity will feel good in your hands.
You stand as the others look at you in silence. The king hands you the sword with a soft smile.
"Derrick Reign of Lorenthe will be the leader of the knights of the realm. I should have guessed it would be you." He says.
You nod softly and watch as all but one removes their helms. You lift an eyebrow.
"What's this then?" You ask as you look at the knight.
"It is nothing that need to be addressed now." The king says and before you can argue, he continues. "There is a feast in your honor. Go, dine, wine and live, my friends, for there is a war on the horizon."
As three of the knights move toward the door you watch the fourth hesitate. You back to the door, bowing and wondering why the king allowed the one knight to remain.
The king waves his hand and the doors are closed.
"Damn!" You mutter angry that you have been so easily dismissed. You are determined to find out the secret of the knight.
