[QUOTE="HolyMan, post: 4848840, member: 84167"] The estates of Lord Bairan Doovan (Bear-AN DUE-van), lay far on the western edge of the Five Kingdoms, in the valley of Pesh. So news of the war against the Treylor Empire was slow in reaching the Keep of the Bear. Lord Bairan was not slow in the moblization of his men, and along the way he had recuriters go to every farmer, wayhouse,and keep as he headed east. Adding to his regular troops and volunteers what some like to call the irregulars. Men and women from all over some not even Peshmen, but merchant guards and some merchants themselves heeding the High King Haspen's call. You have signed on and been regulated to the irregulars and now stand among a cluster of small tents, lean-tos, and bedrolls laid about. As you look about for a spot to call your own a cry raises in the camp [COLOR=seagreen]"The Bear!, The Bear!",[/COLOR] cries out in a hundred men's voices. And there he is Lord Bairan astride a massive horse and trailed by a dozen or more mounted men, and the white banner with a dark blue bear running in the wind behind him. He raises a guantleted fist to show the men he is ready to fight to die for the Five Kingdoms. Just short of the inner camp (that houses Lord Bairan, his followers, and bodyguard) he draws his horse in making a slow circle inspecting the camp. Soilders flock around him instantly to see what he has to say. After a small conversation with the man beside him, Lord Bairan takes voice. [COLOR=blue]"Heed me! heed me!, Peshmen nay[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]countrymen one and all. We are all Five Kingsmen who serve the Great King and serve we shall.
