You must have been protected by the power of the ring. Sometimes magic works in ways we don't understand. As if to illustrate Syovar's last comment, the Ring of Zork suddenly appears in mid-air and falls to the floor. Syovar picks the ring up and puts it safely in his pocket. There's a small banquet going on, and there'll be a play presented afterwards, I believe.
Today is also the date of the jousting finals, on the meadow outside the castle.
The competition begins in about an hour. But what I would most like to do, if you're interested, is go to my library and talk, and get to know each other better. I could tell you tales about the fall of the Great Underground Empire, and about the early campaigns against the evil Krill. Used with permission.
