Cyrus, the clerk of Captain Balthazar, military advisor to the king, sat at his desk, gaping unbelievably at the assignment sheet before him. Did his master have a grudge on one of these knights? (although, other than Sir Khristopher they looked rather young to already have made grudges) It was such a stupid assignment! And HE would have to give it out, because the Captain was on a hunting trip...

Khris rushed in, and sat down on a bench near the clerk.

Wulf walked in casually, with ten minutes to spare, and sat down next to Khris. "Hullo," he said to the older knight.

The clerk checked the candle."All of the knights here, and with minutes to spare!" he said aloud. "This assignment is going to go well if you keep this up! But I'm supposing you'll want me to get to buisiness." Cyrus got up and shut the door.
"We recieved word a few days ago from Fief Dyani (in the hills) that bandits had attacked and taken a few things. What alarmed us, however, is that young Princes Iliara was there visiting her friend, Jesal."
Cyrus paused, and took a drink from a cup on his desk.

"The princess is safe, don't worry," Cyrus said. "Unfortunately, the bandits got away with her teddy."
"So, we're going on a quest for a stuffed bear," said Wulf with tones of anger in his voice.
"If you will be patient, Sir Wulf, I will continue," said the clerk.
"Unfortunately, Her Highness had somehow got hold of her formal crown, and placed it on the bear. The crown is a hundred and three years old and has been passed down through many generations. The bandits have the bear, allegedly named 'Barry', and also the crown. Reports say that Princess Iliara is refusing to sleep or eat, saying that she needs Barry. We are sending you knights to kill the bandits and bring back crown and stuffed animal unharmed. The bandits were last seen riding toward North Trobahn, and the assumption is that they have a hideout there."
Cyrus paused and wiped his brow, which was now sweating. "Any questions?"

"I've been told that you need to leave the city before tomorrow night," said Cyrus. "And the children were picked up by their watchers and ran away when they saw the bandits," he added.

"I've got to get my squire and my bags, but I'm all for leaving as soon as possible," said Wulf, his grief banished by hate and ridicule of the assignment. A bloody STUFFED ANIMAL. He was riding virtually half across Creon and back to find a STUFFED ANIMAL. Bloody hell. Wulf thought of various heavy objects being dropped on Captain Balthazar, and smiled at the thought.
