Tales of Knights Back Story
I'd always been a bit of a dreamer and whilst sharing an ale with friends one evening in the local tavern, I spoke of my high hopes for the future..
'I may not be noble born but I have a right to bear arms and can work hard to earn my place among the elite. I spent my early youth looking up at the powerful knights mounted on their steeds, the sun reflecting off their perfectly polished armour, blinding my sight with all their splendour. They are our hope against all that is rotten in this world. I vowed one day to become such a knight and be known as one of the finest in the land. There is a hall in the town that bears the names of the best knights of this land, in the fields of jousting, mining, strength, ranger arts and such competencies. I will strive to be placed among them and secure my name in those halls of fame for all time'.
At this point my father who had been listening closely from a nearby table jumped up from his stool, grabbed me by the scruff of the neck and threw me out of the door, shouting behind me:
'You'd better get started then, you useless layabout!'
This single event forced me to change my life forever, stop dreaming and start becoming. Nothing would be the same again and so my journey began.....
