Subject  The Fall Of A Tyrant



It was a beautiful day out, The sun was blaring it beauty across the world. I
had of course been relaxing at Hepo's Health care taking obvious enjoyment of
the weather.

As I was relaxing I notice that Barniven, a hated enemy of my order comes
walking in with some knight. That in and of its self made me curious, but not
wary. I gathered up my things, and prepared for battle.

Well, needless to say I watched them hop in Glursocks monstrous machine and
head for a little out of the way town of Gerighelm. I shrugged, I was fairly
confident that the knight, being honorable would not interfere.

Upon landing in a trash heap in gerighelm, I noticed The knight standing there
waiting. I looked around looking for my enemy a moment. When the knight says
to me, I shouldn't interfere and that I was pathetic.

I was lightly taken aback by this Knights atitude, it was strange, He must
have been under the infulence of the Evil Conclave. I vaguely recognized the
knight, he was Tillov, I again looked around for my enemy.

Next thing I know i am under attack, Tillov attacked me unprovoked! I of
course defended myself.

After a Particularly powerful bash by Tillov I realized I was going to have to
strageticly retrat, recover from my wounds at the Cleric's and come back to
finish him off.

That of course was when Barniven decided to attack. Knowing I was out
numbered, I quickly fled the area, to regroup, to come at them again at a
different angle.

What change in the world I thought as I was waiting for the ship to take me
back to Palanthas, Mages, and Knights working in tandem! Not only that, a red
robed mage at that.

By now I was rightly furious at the obvious lack of honor from the knights,
Not only did he have more skill than I, he also attacked me when he rightly
knew I was not interested in him.

That reminds me of a conversation I had the other day with one of my allies,
he too, as he told me, was visciously attacked by this pair... According to
him, they jumped him in Lemish, I begin to ponder this as I wait on the ship.

Atlast, I arrive in Palanthas, Hunting my pray, I find the fool sleeping on
garnet way, just like one of the pathetic urchins in the street! Needless to
say, he did not last long.

I retrieved a few of the less valuable items from his person, seeings how he
didn't need them anyways. At the time, It should have dawned on me not to
attack him while in palanthas, next thing I know, Tillov comes Charging at me
like a mad Rhino! We spar back and forth, but he is too good. I make a
withdrawl in good order, and head back to the tower to relax and revel in my
Victory.

(I already posted a 24 hour note, this is just the story that goes with it. I
was too tired after last night to post it right away)
