Chapter II




I was in my room in White Tower, sitting on wodden chair thinking about what Zannein told me. I was ta'veren, she told me. ''An Aes Sedai never lies, but the truth she speaks, may not be the truth you think you hear.'' Last night, I had strange dream. I was in front of big mountain. I couldn't se it's top. I only know it's dark as tar. I heard voice in my head ''Serve me in life, or serve me in death.'' I knew who was that. I knew where I was. I was in front of Shayol Ghul, where prison of Dark One is. Dark One spoke to me.
''Light burn you Shai'tan!'' - I said to him when I made one step and fell into Pit of Doom... and then I woke up. I found out that I was covered in sweat. I haven't told Zannein anything, or even Sedrar. I kept this dream in secret, it was too strange to have a dream about Dark One. I don’t know if saying His name in dream would have same effects of saying it in reality. I do not want to attract his attention.

When I got out of my room, I saw Sedrar. As I approached him, I felt something strange. It was just for a moment… and it disappeared. What was that? I don’t understand. I should have talked to Zannein, but I decided to keep this a secret too. I saw a man walking through halls of White Tover. He was tall, and though sit hairs on temples, he looked pretty strong, and confident. He walked like warder, like Darlaan. Death followed him like a pet. He smelled like a death. I didn’t understood how can I smell death, but that is probably imagination. At other end of hall, Zannein stood, smiled to see this man.

‘’Lord Gareth Bryne.’’ – she said.

Gareth Bryne nodded ‘’Zannein Sedai. If you would excuse me, I am in hurry. My wife Siuan is kidnapped by Myddraals last night. I am preparing my cavalry for rescue.’’

‘’No need for that, Gareth.’’

He looked at her, confusion on his face. ‘’No need?’’

She nodded and replied. ‘’Leave it to me and my small group.’’ While talking to Lord Gareth Bryne, Zannein looked at me. ‘’Leave it to us.’’

--

In the end, what Zannein said to Gareth Bryne was true. We had to go and rescue Siuan Sanche. She is former Amyrlin, and strong Aes Sedai, more capable than many present Aes Sedai. While I was preparing my saddlebags, I heard from residents rumors that Shienar army led by Lord Agelmar and King Easar defeated trolloc five times bigger army at Tarwin’s Gap. It is said that Creator himself appeared there and smashed trollocs with his might.


--
Borderlands separated Westlands and The Great Blight. It looked like winter never ends there. Snow was falling even on spring. At Tarwin’s Gap we encountered a group of Whitecloaks, charging to fight trollocs. At same moment, I saw Darlaan charging at trollocs and Zannein firing fireball at one trolloc. I drew out my sword and charged. Trollocs were bigger then humans. When I charged, one knocked me out of my horse.



He swinged his sword tovards me, but I blocked his attack, as Darlaan taught me when he had free time. I spent some time blocking trolloc’s attacks, but in the end, he was the one to die.



That was first trolloc I killed. At the end of battle, which was won by us, Whitecloaks were preparing to attack Zannein, because they didn’t liked Aes Sedai at all. Darlaan knocked out few Whitecloaks, and when they saw his skill, they turned their horses and rode in unknown direction. Darlaan’s face looked like it was made of stone when he fought Whitecloaks.

In the meanwhile, we continued our pursue. We followed trollocs all the way to the Blight. We saw them entering one fortress. Darlaan showed me one big mountain few miles away.
Shayol Ghul.
I was afraid. I was never afraid as that day. In the night, we infiltrated the fortress. We separated in order to find prison faster. I had to sneak a lot, because I saw more than two hundred trollocs in fortress. I was first to find prison guard. He was a man, lucky man who didn’t got eaten by trollocs. Prison keys were hanged on his belt. He held big two-handed sword, forged by Forgers of Thakan’Dhar. I attacked him with my full strength. I swinged my sword, but he was too skilled and knocked me on the ground. He tried to pierce me, but I dodged and cutted his throat.

Darkfriend Prison guard charging at me



He fell on bloody ground. I took the keys and entered the prison. Siuan Sanche was standing on cold floor, looking at wall in front of her.

‘’Siuan Sedai?’’ – I asked.

She turned and nodded ‘’Thank the heavens you have come, young man. Lead me out of here, now!’’



Well, this is not the ‘’thanks’’ I ecpected, but better anything than nothing. When we got out of prison, I saw about ten trollocs standing before me.



‘’Use One Power!’’ – I yelled.

‘’I am too tired…’’ – she replied ‘’I am too tired. Try to kill them by yourself.’’

Damn Aes Sedai. She won’t help when she is most needed. But nevermind, I’ll kill them by myself. I charged at them, killing first, second, third…. In the end, all of them were lying on ground, dead. How I did this I didn’t knew. Somehow, I managed to lead Siuan out of fortress, and we, by that I mean Zannein and others, galloped out of Blight next day.
When we got to outskirts of Fal Dara, we set up the camp. Darlaan cooked rabbits he killed in woods. I was sitting on log next to campfire, eating my meal.

‘’Young man.’’ – Siuan said. I knew it was me, so I raised my look. ‘’I saw your skill how you fought trollocs. How old are you?’’

‘’19.’’ – I replied, maybe too fast.

Siuan smiled ‘’Did Darlaan taught you how to fight. He is one of warders Aes Sedai could only dream. Zannein is lucky she got him.’’

I nodded ‘’Every day I trained. I am ta’ve….’’ – maybe I said too much.

‘’Ta’veren!’’ – she widened her eyes. ‘’Ta’veren..’’-  she said second time more calmly. ‘’Interesting.’’ – she didn’t said anything after that.

After I fell asleep, I had a dream about Dark One again. This time, he introduced himself as Ba’alzamon.

Chapter I






----

I woke up.. I was still lying in bed. We were riding whole day from Emond's Field to Baerlon. It was first town I ever saw. So many people at one place. In one street, there was more people than in whole Emond's Field. I don't understand how can those people live. I didn't mentioned that food is much more expensive than in Emond's Field. Sedrar and I somehow persuaded Zannein to let us see how's town looking like.
We meet some Whitecloaks, Children of Light, fanatics. They would accuse you that you are Dakrfriend only because they don’t like you, and even If they have no clue that you are Darkfriend. I have always imagined towns with big white tovers, with cobbled streets, in which poor people do not exsist. Baerlon disappointed me a lot. Once I had a big opinion about towns…

Town of Baerlon


In the morning of same day, I learnt I am ta'veren, as well as Sedrar. Ta'veren is person, who is destined to bring change to the world. At first, I was surprised, and I didn't liked it at all. I know I always wanted adventures, but this adventure didn't seemed good. In the afternoon, we decided to travel to Tar Valon, residence of Aes Sedai. Well that's something I really didn't liked. First, there is so many Aes Sedai, as one isn't enough. Second, One Power is being used there, and since I saw how Moiraine Sedai healed Rand's father using One Power, my opinion about True Source decreased.

At evening, we arrived at village named Four Kings, which was attacked by Darkfriends, servants of Dark One. I cannot say his name, Light burnt him, because I'm scared. I will write in nearest future why's that.
Darkfriends were slaughtering villagers of Four Kings. Servants of Shepherd of Night, wore black tunic, and were holding or sword or night in each hand. I learnt reason why they attacked village. Once, most people of Four Kings were Darkfriends, but were exiled by loyal Andorans, and Darkfriends probably wanted revenge. Nevermind that, this was first time I saw Darlaan, Zannein's warder in battle. It looked like he danced. He killed about ten Darkfriends easily on his horse. But on his feet, he was even more amazing. So much spins and swings. I could barely see Darlaan, but I saw a lot of Darkfriends falling to ground, like a rain. I know they are Darkfriends, but this was first time I saw slaughtering. On smell of blood, my horse was nervous. Once, I could barely stop him to throw me out of saddle. I rode to the nearby hill, only to see Four Kings burns.

On my luck, few moments later, I saw Sedrar, Darlaan and Zannein Sedai riding towards me. What a relief. I believe I couldn't survive without them. We continued our trip and arrived at Caemlyn, capital of Kingdom of Andor. From Zannein I learnt Two Rivers were part of Andor. Two Rivers are backwater. Tax collectors weren't coming to Emond's Field, as well as nearby villages Devon's Ride and Watch Hill, except to Taren's Ferry, which was near to Baerlon.

On march 27th, we arrived at Tar Valon.

Tar Valon, residence of Aes Sedai



. I felt... I don’t know how to say it, but I just knew it is not good. So many Aes Sedai around. Zannein said that every year, number of Aes Sedai is decreasing, and that is not good. Who will fight in Tarmon’Gaidon, the Last battle. Amyrlin Seat, head of White Tover, invited us. When we got into her room, I opened my mouth, terriffied. It was Egvene al’Vere, girl I grew up with.
She widened here eyes when she saw Sedrar and me. I’ll describe our little talk

’’Sedrar, Altor! What are you doing here?’’ – she asked, confusion on her face.

’’Err, Egvene...’’ – I said, when Zannein interupted me.

’’Amyrlin Seat! You must say Amyrlin Seat!’’ – Zannein yelled.

I looked at her with confusion.

’’No, Zannein..’’ – Egvene said. ’’I grew up with him, it is okay. Now, why are you here?’’

Zannein looked at me with anger. ’’They are ta’veren, Amyrlin.’’

’’Too?’’ – She bursted. ’’It is enough that Rand, Mat and Perrin are ta’verens, but Altor and Sedrar too. What is happenning in this world?’’

’’What are we going to do, Egvene?’’ – Sedrar asked.

Egvene raised her look and said. ’’You are staying here.’’

’’I don’t want to stay at bloody Tar Valon!’’ – I said, when Egvene raised her brow. ’’I am sorry, I won’t swear anymore.’’

Even in Emond’s Field, Egvene didn’t liked when someone swore near her.
It was looking like we have to stay at Tar Valon, much longer than I thought

Chapter V: ''Tournament, assault and defeat''
June 7th- July 25th 1257

Morale of my army was low. Only thing that could cheer them up was fighting. So we marched to northern Calradian coast, on border between Vaegirs and Nords and started exterminating sea raiders. I was surprised when my men spotted pretty large groups. Every consisted  10-20 men, but still they were no match for my cavarly. I had about 15 knights, 3 man at arms and 2 khergit skirmishers. We charged at raiders and sliced them in half with our swords. Morale of my men was getting higher by every battle. They were satisfied.  In Rivacheg, I heard about large sea raider group named Sea Wolves. They were raiding outskirt villages of Rivacheg and Wercheg. Then a real hunt began. We spent 2 days searching for them, and finally in dawn of june 15th we encountered them near Rivacheg.

I told infatry and archers to advance ten paces and hold ground, while my cavalry and I will charge at them. We rode at full gallop. I swinged my sword and cut one’s throat, while I pierced another one. Even though they were famous bandit group, they were no match for my army.

Next day, while I was riding to Reyvadin, I saw a man on horizon carrying a letter. It was from our marshal Boyar Nelag adressed to me. I unsealed it and started reading.

’’Boyar Alexios, by my rights as a marshal, I order you to mobilise your army at Dramug castle. We are preparing military campaing. Sanjar Khan declared war and we are preparing to take Sungetche Castle by force. You have 4 days.
- Nelag, sworn vassal and leader of Vaegir army -

Finally some interesting news. We are going to take Sungetche Castle. When we arrived before walls of Sungetche castle I recieved news that Emir Tilimsan is looting my village. I rode fastest I can and arrived at Tash Kulun next day. When I arrived I saw Sarranids burning houses and raping women. I decided to put an end to this and charged at them. Now surprised Sarranids tried to repel our attacks, but we had no mercy. They died one by one. But, infidel Emir Tilimsan managed to escape. I didn’t know what to do to protect village. It was border village, and it will always be raided.

--
I returned to Sungetche and we started assault. I hid myself behind siege tower and waited until it hit the walls and we started climbing. We easily cut down unexpirienced Khergit soldiers and breach to the castle. 





There, my men and I killed last of the defenders. Victory was ours. King Yaroglek returned to Reyvadin and held a feast. All of nobles were invited. Also, a tournament was held.

I participated, defeated one or two participants in the first round and got knocked out. Fortunately, I proceeded to the second round, and even to third and fourth. I bet 200 denars on myself hoping I will win in the finals. I asked who is my opponent. I got excited when I heard it’s King Yaroglek.



I won my first tournament, yay!!


We started our fight, but simply, old man Yaroglek was not skilled enough to compete with me, and ended up being knocked out, but still he showed some skill. I won first tournament on this strange land after almost a half year. When I got on feast I met few more ladies. I didn’t mentioned before I met two ladies more, Lady Olakseia and Lady Valka. After tournament I traveled to Curaw and bought Iron for 1800 denars, and would sell it in Reyvadin for 3000-5000. Pretty good income, isn’t it? After trading I traveled to Dramug castle where I encountered 126 Khergit men, led by Charuka Noyan and another two noyans. I can’t remmember their names.

We are owerwhelmed!!

--

My army was surrounded. We charged, but before I tried to slice one Khergit, three arrows hit my horse. Poor animal fell dead. Sadness took me over, because I had that horse since start of my journey in Calradia. Honourable captain that brought me here gave me that horse. Without horse, I didn’t last long, as one Khergit hit me with mace in head. Everything went black, as a fell to the bloody ground.

--

I woke up to learn Khergits took me a prisoner. For three days, I was in their dirty hands. Somehow, while they were fithing Vaegirs, I managed to escape. Lucky me, I still had my weapons and armor, but I had no horse. I wandered border of Swadia, Khergits and Vaegirs in search for Reyvadin.

Poor me, without an army, and without a horse

--

I finally returned to Reyvadin after 2 days of walking. I was dead tired. First, in next morning I bought a horse, then I started visiting villages in searching for volunteers. I got about 15 Vaegirs and 10 Swadians to join my small growing army. First, I did another trade in Curaw and Reywadin. I had about 11000 denars now and went to training grounds to train recruits. This time, I wanted them all to become horsemen that will serve me in my conquests.

Author's notes:

As you can see, I got defeated by Khergits, but nevermind, I will be again the strongest and I hope you will continue reading.




Renown is cool!

And also, I forgot. Merchant was thrown out of town, so will you land him few hundred coins so he could continue to live. He helped you to survive. You should do the same. 

Well, I am not putting everything on strenght and ironflesh. I'm concentrating mostly on leadership, trade, prisoner managment and persuasion. Rest of free points I put in a strenght and other familiar skills

Chapter IV: ''Vassalage''
May 14th-June 7th

After training another 5 horsemen, Yarolgek asked me for another favor. This time he wanted me to collect taxes from Reyvadin, and my reward? Fifth of taxes! From a huge town?! Of course I accepted. In the morning of the next day I started doing my job as a tax collector. It took me 3 days to collect all taxes. When I finished my little job, I didn’t realised I was richer for almost 7000 denars. Meanwhile, I heard from local townsmen ot Khudan that King Yarolgek is at Khergit border, and is travelling to Reyvadin, so I decided to wait for him there. In palace of Reyvadin, I met a king, and after completing this task too, he asked me if I want to become Lord. A LORD??? Of course I want. Next day in the noon, mass gathered in front of palace, watching traditional ceremony. I knelt down before Yarolgek, as he made me lord. I became lord in this strange land, after starting as a beggar. Yarolgek gave me a village Tash Kulun, where I killed one outlaw I cannot remmember his name. Villagers don’t like me there, but they will, they will like me very soon. After I recieved a royal title, same day I departed to Tash Kulun.

--

When I arrived, I saw fear in eyes of villagers. I went to elder’s house and asked him about villagers. His answer terrified me. He said bandits are attacking them every week, and they have no manpower to repel them. I raised and told him I will train them. I will protect them from bandits. That’s my duty as a lord and protector of this village.

In the start, villagers showed to have no talent in fighting, but my training method made them men of steel. It took me nearly four days to train them. While I was training them, I saw Firentis running towards him, yelling ’’BANDITS!!!’’. That moment has come. I took my armor and weapons and charged at the enemies. I rode at the head of the column, and pierced 3 bandits easily in galop. Villagers showed pretty useful too, as they killed more than half bandits. I, Boyar Alexios of Tash Kulum had honor to pierce last standing bandit, through his heart.

Battle at Tash Kulum

--

That night, we celebrated. While I was drinking ale in honor of village and its villagers, elder encountered me, asking me if I could bring him 7 heads of cattle. The bandits drowe their cattle, and they couldn’t find it. ’’I will do that!’’, I said him, and saw a big smile on elder’s face. I rode to Khergit village Zagush, where I bought 7 heads of cattle for nearly 1000 denars. I am not a shepherd, so it took me time to learn how to drive cattle onwards. When I got to the village, giving them the cattle, I saw smiles on many faces, but also tears. I am happy because I made them happy. It looked like I am doing this job of protector of village quite well.

Alexios, Lord of Tash Kulum

--

That night, I couldn’t sleep. I had nightmares about day when bandits attacked me and took me as a prisoner. Ymira has gone. I went out to tavern in my village when I heard a group talking about Ymira. I rushed towards them and asked where she is. No one replied, but then I pointed my sword towards one’s throat. In the same time, he said to me she is in Shariz. I prepared my army as we rode to Shariz. I asked Firentis, where is that town. He replied me it is capital of Sarranid Sultanute, kingdom ruled by Hakim. It is town in desert. We were traveling to desert and this was my first time to see it. But on border with Sarranids, I recieved a message. Vaegirs declared war on Sarranids. Right on moment when I was traveling to Shariz. Damn it! I will wait until war finish. I had one more thing to do. I had to strenghten my army. From ranger Deshavi I met in Tulga, I heard about Rhodok crossbowmen. Also, I heard they’re best sharpshooters in whole Calradia, so I decided to train some of them. I went on border between Rhodok and Swadian kingdoms, to recruit few Rhodok tribesmen. I decided to go to Tash Kulun to see if there are any news, but when I got there, I saw many dead bodies. Village elder survived, but wih horrible wounds. His whole family has been murdered. Somehow, he managed to encounter me. ’’WHO DID THIS?’’, I angrily asked him, when he whispered name ’’Emir Hiwan’’, and passed out. That day, I buried elder along with all other villagers. I swore on revenge. Before this war finish, I will find Hiwan and kill him!

--

I rode until I got to Sarranid territory. Main features of my army were fighting spirit and high morale. We started search for Emir Hiwan, but instead of him, we encountered Emir Nuwas. When I encountered him for negotiations, I told him he is not my target, he is not the person I want to kill. ’’Who is he?’’, Emir asked me. I told him a name of unhonourable person. After he heard that name, he started to laugh uproariously, and ordered his men to attack.

Manouvre before battle




Alexios after battle
--

Battle was fierce. I was riding at the head of the column. Few mamlukes in Emir’s army were pretty threat. But, unfortunately for them, they were no match for my cavarly. I was swinging my sword cuting throats and piercing Sarranids. One soldier knocked me off my horse, and I had to continue battle on foot. Result of battle was next. Victory was mine. I had opportunity to kill Nuwas, but I did let him go. He wasn’t person I targeted.



Author's notes:

As you see, I defeated Emir Nuwas, and I'm currently trying to make my army stronger. Readers, pray for me to survive when I find Hiwan.

Nice indeed, please continue.

Chapter III:''A tiring month''
april 14th-may 11th 1257


I spent another night alone in Reyvadin. As I decided to go out I met Boyar Taisa. I could remember him from feast. After a short talk, he offered me to serve Kingdom of Vaegirs as a mercenary in war against Nords. He probably saw my bravery and skill at the tournament. I accepted of course, and started gathering men for my army. When I went to Sambuja, village where I killed Daynad of Halmar, I arrived right in the time to help villagers to fight off the bandits. I helped villagers, and we quickly killed all bandits. My relationship with village imrpoved extremely well, as 9 farmers wanted to join me. Of course I accepted

--

I decided to go to  Curaw to buy more Iron, but battle between Vaegirs and Nords was played near Sambuja. Somehow, I managed to get to Curaw, but when I bought Iron, I decided to follow the river to Ymura castle and get to Reyvadin safe. That way is much more safe, I think. I was right, as I got safe to Reyvadin. I sold all Iron and earned good 3000 denars. Now, my goal was to gather and train some men. I earned another 3000 denars after selling Iron I bought in Dhirim, in Kingdom of Swadia. On my way to Reyvadin I encountered King Yarolgek who gave me a task. In this task I need to find Yaroglek’s spy in Wercheg, a big city on northern coast of Calradia. Also, Yarolgek gave me a password, because I will need it to find a spy. As way to Wercheg is full by bandits, I followed Yarolgek’s main army to Alburq castle, and from there within one day I arrived at city

My journey to Wercheg

--


I have inflitrated city disquised as a beggar. I had a staff and 10 throwing knifes with me, just to defend myself. Then I started searching for spy. On my luck, I found him very soon. I left city with reports spy in Wercheg gave me. I met Yarolgek preparing a siege at Alburq castle. I gave him reports he sent me for. Another task complete. I’m getting myself into good light.

Spy in Wercheg

--

Meanwhile, I completed task Boyar Ralcha gave me. I returned 3000 denars Boyar Druli owed him, though I had to lose my own 540 denars. Nevermind, I still have more than 5000 denars with me. I had one more task to do. King Yarolgek wanted me to bring him 6 trained Vaegir Horsmen. I has two with me, so four more. While traveling to Reyvadin, a elderly woman encountered me, and gave me a letter adressed on me. When I opened it, my heart started beating faster when I read
It was from Lady Tamar. I visited her few days later. She was very happy when I opened a door. 


Rest of the month was tiring. I trained totally 11 Horsemen to serve Yarolgek, as he gave me same task two times. Also, I completed another bunch of tasks and met another lords. Before war between Vaegirs and Khergits ended, Yarolgek managed to conquer Malayurg Castle. Well, I think May will also be tiring, but I hope it will at least not be boring. Also, a good thing is that I became a friend with King Yarolgek. That was an of best things that could happen.



Author's notes:

Well, this is chapter 3. In next chapter I will probably become Yarolgek's vassal, and I hope anyone who reads this will continue to read this, if actually anyone read. This is it




Alexios' renown. Not bad after one in-game month




These are Alexios' stats. Give me hints if something is wrong or anything like that, that could help me in future.

Introduction was interesting. Looking forward to it. 

Chapter II:''Bounty hunter''
March 24th-april 4th 1257


After saving merchant’s brother, I had a lot of free time. First, a spent a night in Reyvadin healing my wounds. Wounds on my body were deep. It did hurt a lot. Because of that I couldn’t sleep, so I rode out of Reywadin when I encountered King Yarolgek, ruler of Kingdom of Vaegirs. That was a great opportunity to put myself into good light. I could remember some things nobles did to get auidence with kings and lords. That’s why I was able to get to King and talk to him a bit. We were talking about Calradia. It had six kingdoms. That were Kingdom of Nords, Swadia, Rhodoks, Sultanute of Sarranids, Kheright Khanate and Kingdom of Vaegirs of course. After a little talk, Yarolgek asked me for a favor. He wanted me to find and kill a lawless villain by the name of Daynad of Halmar. Also he told me he is last seen in Sambuja. I accepted and first went to Reyvadin to sell items I found at bandit’s hideout.



While I was walking the streets, two well armed man tried to rob me and kill me, but I killed them effortlessly. My next destination was Sambuja. In the noon of march 25th I went to village Sambuja and started searching for an outlaw. I asked villagers, but no one knew. Not too far from the village, I saw a man carrying a sword. I encountered him and asked him about Daynad of Halmar. Right at the moment, he started denying he didn’t killed anyone. I found him and quickly executed the law. Of course, villagers were not happy seeing their neighbour being killed right in front of them. I learnt that as one of them threw rock at me. I rode out of village fastest I could.

I found you, you dirty scum!!!





In the Reyvadin, I found King Yarolgek. I reported him about my success, and earned 300 denars. Sweet money I could say. After completing this task, I went to the guild master of Reyvadin seeking for more. He told me there are few band of looters terorising outskirts for Reyvadin. I said the guild master that I will try to do something about it. Before I started searching for looters, I went to local tavern where I met a young beauty by name of Ymira. She said to me she escaped from her home because of political marriage her father wanted. Also, she said to me she wants to join my small groving army. Of course, I accepted. I gave her proper battle suit. She will be better protected in that than in fancy dress.

First group of looters, which consisted 11 unexperienced bandits, I defeated easily same day. Then my band and I rested till dawn of next day when we continued our search. At end of the month I did put an end to four groups and earned 160 denars from guild master. Then I started trade tour from Curaw to Reyvadin. I bought a cheap iron at Curaw for only 70-90 denars, and sold it at Reyvadin for 250 denars. That was really good profit, as I earned over 2000 denars. After selling the iron, I participated a tournament where I got to even final round. But unfortunately, I was knocked out by a skilled warrior by the name Kradus. I hope I will meet him again in the other tournament.

First round of tournament




Luckily I was invited to feast. I had no ceremony suit, so I went there in my armor. In palace at Reyvadin, I met three nobles, Boyar Vlan, Neldera and Ralcha. In the short talk with Boyar Neldera, he gave me task to collect a debt of 3000 denars that Boyar Druli owes him. After I asked where Boyar Druli is, he answered me he is at Khudan, town deep in Vaegir terrytory. Of course, I accepted the given task. Not only Lors were at feast, but also lustful young ladies. I met one. Her name is Lady Tamar, sister of Boyar Crahask. She was young, only 21. After flirting with her, he said to me that she would like us to see each other. My heart started beating faster after I heard those words. Next day I departed to Khudan, but at halfway we were attacked by tundra bandits. They effortlessly defeated my men, and knocked me out. After I woke up, I realised I was taken prisoner. For two days, I was in hands of these bandits, then somehow, I managed to escape. I was all alone now. I had no other choice but to return to Reyvadin. Feast still lasted, but I was not allowed to enter because I was not lord, and if I want permission I would have to win tournament that is being held. Also, Boyar Druli was at royal feast, but unfortunately, I was knocked out in 4th round. My only hope to see Boyar Druli is to wait for feast to finish.

Stats are not that bad

Yeah, of course  I'm sorry about that, English is not my native language, I learnt it more from movies and internet than school
