Mordred of Kaldor

Eventful day. Corwin is a Maul. And not a moment too soon. He was overly excited I guess and started picking on Shelly not in a bad way though. It eventually did lead ter them heading off fer a couple of duels. Never matter though. He did learn a very important lesson. The difference between a new Maul and a seasoned Veteran Maul Knight. No harm done. Once he gets used to the new armour and feels more comfortable with it I am sure he will be an even match for any maul. I have high hopes for that lad.

Trinsic was still under attack from these monsters. And the marksmen had set up what seemed to be a small outpost near the moongate. More like a camping site if you ask me but...an outpost with some protection nonetheless. The fool was there. I avoided him as much as I could. At some point we cross paths on the way to the Rose. All he said to me was "Good day." Even that was enough ter tick me off. I left before I did something that would violate my orders. Went to Trinsic. Fought a brief time with those creatures but I was no match for them.

I was just hanging around with Shelly when I get notified of an attack to Stonekeep. Most exciting news I had all day. Ofcourse the downside of it was that the marksmen were going with us. I simply paid no attention to them...

We reached Stonekeep. A good number of us. Stonekeep was underdefended. After a bit of running around we managed to get all the defenders. They were good no doubt about it. I saw Cecil talking to a young lass and we ended up taking her in. From her blabberin I found out she was the daughter of Klion. Grand prize indeed but she offered no resistance. I had my doubts. Whoever she may be she is a woman who did not fight back. She didnt seem to have much of a military training other. Although..sometimes looks can be deceiving.

Well she was important anyway. We were chased all the way to Yew moongate. Stopping and fighting all the time. We were not only attacked by militia though. We were attacked by some that were out of uniform. The faces where familiar but nothing more than that. We battled at the moongate. After a small break of fighting the rest jumped in. For some reason I could not. I was waiting for a while. Time would pass and eventually I would be able to get through.

I was struck by an arrow. Immediately armed up and went after my attacker. We fought for what seemed like hours. Curse those archers. When the got speed as well they are a real pain...It was an even fight. At some point though meh shield an sword where too heavy for me. My parry arm felt numb from all the hits it had taken. I threw them down and got my axe out. A gamble but this would have never ended any other way. Again after quite some time we where both standing. It was obvious that the winner of this duel would be the one that got that little extra luck. It was not me. Ah could see he was close to falling so I let down my guard and went straight for him. Two shots came through and I was face down. These archers are starting to turn into a problem.

Having lost the others and injured I came back for rest. We did get away with a good prisoner after all. Exciting day all in all. And I dont mind being struck down. I always learn. And I will find those archers weak spot. Well..the ones that are fast enough cause the rest cause no problems.
