:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Topic: Knights :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: A once green and vibrant plain extends around you, its tall grasses now crushed and trampled, the green splattered with the debris of war. For as far as your eyes can see the field is covered with the dead and those few lucky survivors who wander around aimlessly as if shocked to be alive after such a fierce fight. One armoured figure in particular catches your eye as he kneels down and silently cleans his bastard sword on the cloak of a fallen foe. As the last of the blood is wiped from his blade the Knight rises to his feet, the leftover strain of battle slowing his movements, his injuries causing a grimace of pain. While you watch him, the look of pain fades from his face as he closes his eyes and seems to focus his thoughts on enduring his wounds. With a final bow of his head, to the memory and valour of his fallen foe the Knight remounts his sandy coloured horse and rides off to rally and aid the survivors. The killing is over but there is more to being a Knight than just the glory of battle. A Knight is a powerful warrior, but that power is sheathed within a code of honour. Any Knight is not perfect, nor expected to be, but they must always attempt to reach for that higher ideal.
