The elegant carriage arrives

[Rusty7x 114]

A slight haze in the sky with a slow and gentle breeze flew throughout Arethor. The day was warm bringing many people to the streets and market areas. Travelling along the windy passages would bring the peaceful and daily music of the merchants and customers bartering. It was the late afternoon to evening when a small cloud of dust was rising from the paths along the main road toward the empire capital. The convoy consisted of 4 mounted knights fully cladded armour ahead of a posh and elegant carriage, fit for royalty with yet another 6 mounted knights in the rear. The horses continuously trudging through the dirt and grit that lay the track whilst the carriage calmly glided over the paved surface of the road toward the empire.

The group slowly pulled up to the main gate of Arethor where the knights parted as the carriage came to a gentle halt. As the carriage driver stepped down from his seat he slid the door catch open and slowly opened the door. As it opened the passers-by could see the fine linen and silks layering the inside of the carriage and a lone figure sitting. The man stood slightly but only enough to move close enough to reach the door. As the currently unknown figure approached the exit a hand reached out and passed the carriage driver an elegant walking cane. The top encrusted with diamonds, the grip rich and thick leather and the rest an intricate pattern of dark royal blue colours and gold. After passing it over, the man steps down out of the carriage. Wearing his old naval uniform, the people quickly realised it was the mighty Elessar Silverblade. Once on the firm ground of the city the remainder of the knights disembarked their mounts and returned to Elessar’s side. Clutching his cane Elessar started to walk slowly but with a noticeable limp. With just nodding to a number of family and friends he continues towards the docks silent tired.

[so I’ve started to play a bit more now so this is just me arriving. Maybe I’ll have some good stories to tell you. One thing you can be sure of, is that my hatred of peasants will be present still.]
