Cavalier

Cavalier

Two years had passed since the orcs invasions. The young man, for the courage he demonstrated, received the right of peerage and became a squire for one of the King’s personal knights. Since that day, the young squire trained everyday with the goal of one day being formally knighted.

But the war wasn’t over yet he thought as he helped his master put on his full plate in the camp. The older man studied his squire intently.

-“You have come a long way, you know. Once, I was like you too. Eager, and inexperienced.” He turned and put his hand on his squire’s shoulder firmly.

-“You will soon learn that the hardest part is not the battle, no, that part is easy. The hardest part is dealing with the nobles that send us to do their dirty work.”

As the young man nodded, the Knight put on his helmet and jumped on his magnificent steed. The squire was in awe, as he saw his master ride towards the battlefield, charging in that ever growing army of darkness. With knights like him protecting the Realm, there was no way they would lose that war.
