"Rodney Dukke of Beladim will be the leader of the knights of the realm. I should have guessed it would be you." He says.

"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 what the knight intends.
Before you can think of a plausible reason to remain, the king waves his hand and the doors are closed.
