But the cleaned and dressed carcass of the boar was strapped to his horse, and he knew his lord would be happy to have boar for dinner. Dismounting and unstrapping the package, Edoryan smiled and called out to two of the youth's in the yard. "Markos! Mattos! Hail! I've got a job for you boys. Get this boar to the kitchens, and we'll have a nice feast this night." The ranger chuckled as he watched the two boys carry the heavy load across the yard, and turned to head to his rooms.Pausing before the entry, Edoryan turned his eyes skyward. "Nonios, here," he called, and with a shriek and flap of wings, the eagle descended to perch upon his arm. The ranger scratched the bird's head and entered the keep, making way to his room. Outside the door he met a bonded courier, thanked him graciously, and retired to his room to pour over the letters. "Looks like I am to be appointed as one of the Stewards of Rosedown," he says to the eagle, smiling. "A new land to learn and love, new game to hunt...it should surely be an exciting adventure."Taking a seat at his smallish writing desk, Edoryan took quill and ink, and quickly penned an answer to his letter."I would prefer men trained in skirmish tactics, and accurate with the longbow. Men that can survive off the land, and know how to hunt. Men of stout heart, that will not break and flee with faced with a rabble of goblin raiders. Mobility is key, and thus they should have chain shirts and bucklers for protection. Composite longbows crafted to suit each man, longsword and warhammer for close combat. Light horses, trained for war, are preferable as mounts." The letter written, the ranger again turns his gaze to the eagle. "Well my friend, I believe it is time to discuss these events with Lord Bainard. He'll be sad to lose us, I'm sure...but since it was his idea to apply for the position, he'll be happy as a lark tonight. I see far too much wine and ale in the near future..."[sblock=Gear]Masterwork Chain shirtsBucklers Masterwork Composite Longbows (mighty, if the men have the STR for the bonus)Longsword WarhammerIf warhorses aren't doable, that is fine...Edoryan has handle animal, and can train them himself if need be.[/sblock]</blockquote>
