As Vade approaches Thantos, the knight's horse Spike neighs softly, waking the resting knight.

"Well met Vade, I was wondering when you would show up!"

Sitting up the knight glances around and sees a few of the others had already arrived but were waiting at various places out of the distance of his warhorse.

"So Vade, as I was saying earlier, we are indeed a motley crew are we not? I think we will do well on this quest but we must watch and determine everyone's strengths and weaknesses in order to be most effective in battle."

"Ah, but enough of that for now, I will tell you a little about myself. I have been a full knight for over 5 years now, and even in that short time I have seen countless battles. My king's lands lie far away and are constantly under seige from the forces of darkness. We are a proud folk of warriors. My father was a knight of the kingdom before me as was my grandfather and his father. My father was killed 10 years ago in the great battle of Gardur. He and his devout knights were able to hold the line against an army of ogres and trolls long enough for residents of Gardur to flee back to Moonvale. Alas, he and most of the Knights of the Eagle Order perished in that battle. Since then I have strived to make him proud and bring the Eagle Order back to its full strength and honour. Since the Eagle Order is still relatively small and wouldn't be put into battle(recruitment to the Eagle Order is very intense and very limited) the King felt many of the knights should go on quests of learning to keep their edge sharp and to gain knowledge of different lands. I, therefore, was assigned to assist in this particular endeavour. "

"What about you my good man Vade, what is your story..If you wish to tell? Why have you decided to risk your life for the Duke?"
