In a quiet wilderness in an ordinary estate lived an ordinary knight. He was poor and therefore went to wander the world. For a long time he walked and visited many cities, but his adventures began.
Rowan, that was the name of our hero. Rowan, as usual, was sitting in a tavern and drinking a tincture with herbs, when he suddenly noticed some bandits were pestering a woman with a cape. Of course Rowan did not stand aside.
- Gentlemen, please do not touch the lady, she is disgusted by your presence.
- Who else are you, her boyfriend or something, you don't order us to leave.
The woman was worried, she was in trouble.
- Well, it looks like I should give you a lesson, gentlemen.
Rowan slammed his fist on the nose of the same bandit who clearly wanted to hit Rowan.
- Well, you and ... - then all the bandits attacked him at once.
But Rowan, as an experienced knight, deftly parried with his sword and knocked down the bandits, since everyone was already lying.
- Well, it looks like the lesson has been learned, and now bring down where you came from.
- You can't wait, you bastard - one of the bandits almost plunged a dagger into Rowan, but the new acquaintance quickly reacted and the bandit was already lying dead on the floor.
Now there is no time for jokes, the bandits left spitting, taking the dead bandit with them and retired to the axis pile.
- Thank you, milady, Rovan Mirlan is at your service. Rowan sat down next to Milady and ordered two mugs of apple cider. "At my expense, I recently made good money by killing the leader of the local robbers.
- B.. thank you. I'm Seya, it's a pleasure doing business with you Rowan.
- Oh .. Elven, I greet you, a maiden from distant lands.
- Do you understand me? - Seya was surprised, because not everyone knows the elvish language.
- Yes, of course, I learned it in my travels, tell milady you can go with you.
"Yes, of course, well Rowan I see you are looking for something from life." Elves have the ability to see the hearts of other people.
"Yeah, it's Seya milady, I would like to continue my travels, because I'm stuck in this town.
- Well, congratulations, tell Rowan if you can help me.
- Of course, Seya, milady, I am ready to help such a kind soul. - Traveling, Rowan discovered in himself the ability to determine the good in a person.
- Rowan will you become my guide and guard in my wanderings, if necessary, I will repay you.
- I beg you Seya, I agree, for me already a trip, and even with an elf is the best reward.
- What's agreed?
Yes, we will be together from now on. Seya and Rowan shook hands.
Thus began the great journey of a warrior and a lady from a noble royal family.
