And thus enters Soth, Knight of the Black Rose

MidKnight

First Post
From the mists walks a figure.

It is covered from top to bottom with a large, long, black cloak. The cloak, although large, cannot conceal the bulk of a great suit of armor. Even though the figure strides down the path, not a sound can be heard from within.

As a young man speaks traditional greetings, the figure stops. It’s head raises as the cloak falls away. A black helm fully covers the entire head of the individual - all but the eyes. A feeling of pure dread enters his body and creeps through to the young man’s heart. There is no movement but yet he hears a hissing voice in his head, ”Greetings to you. I am Soth, Knight of the Rose. I am new to these lands and seem to be lost – could you please point me in the proper direction to a local town?”

The young man raises a trembling hand and points further down the path.

”Thank you…”

As the young man turns to make a quick departure, Soth draws his sword and in an unprovoked, malicious attack, cuts the man down.

”Cowardly fool.” Soth continues down the path towards town – towards destiny.
