Why so?Mentok: I was wrongly stripped of my knight hood and have been force to become a mercenary.William: I see...I'm glad I retired when I did. The king was older than I was and he was slowly losing his grip on reality if you ask me.

This should be fun!Mentok: Thank you I *Walks forward and trips over the chest plate and fell over* UMF.William: *laughs* In the meantime, you might want to get your eyes checked!Mentok: *Moans* That might be a good idea.William: *walks off* Oh that poor man...and I thought my eyes were bad!

Mentok: *Throws a spear into a target 50 meters away.*William: Ah...excellent aim!Mentok: Thank you Sir William. *grabs another javelin*William: I've been speaking to a contact of mine in Ostia...Mentok: and...what did he say if it does not intrude. *Lowers the javelin on his foot.* And they say mettle boots wouldn't be useful.William: We may be able to arrange something, but we'll have to make an audience with the ruling family. I apologize. I haven't been there in...almost fifty years now. I'm not so sure who's in power.Mentok: It's still house Ostia though It's a distant cousin of the leaders you may have known.William: I shall see what I can arranged then. Hopefully, given a week's time, I'll be off to see what I can negotiate.Mentok *Bows* thank you sir WilliamWilliam: No need for the formality. I'm just a rancher now. No more Sir for me.Mentok: A knight is knight, with or without a house to serve.William: I suppose that's true, but all the same, I gave up that title quite some time ago. Old man will do rather than Sir.Mentok: Yes Sir... I mean just William.William: There! That's a man! Now, is that so hard? But I might ask that you accompany me on my voyage. My eyes aren't as good as they used to be and I might get myself lost.Mentok: Why thank you William, it would be an honor.William: Honor? *laughs* Think of it as community service!Mentok: If you insist.William: You're so proper! *laughs* Guess it takes a while for the training to wear off...Mentok: I must be ready to reenter a lords service at all times.William: As is the way of the knight. But...if you ever have a family...don't let that get in the way of them.Mentok: I have no familyWilliam: Just a friendly word of advice if you change your mind.Mentok: I prefer to leave the subject.William: Of course. Of course, Well, I should probably be home then anyway. My boys will start to think I've gotten myself lost again.Mentok: Then later William.

William( *holding an old axe* Hm...maybe I should bring this along just for good measure...Mentok: *Knocks on door* William may I enter?William: Hm? Oh yes yes! Come on in.Mentok: *Came in with a huge sack and a bushel of spears on his back* thank you.* Enters and closes the door behind you*William: Ah! Don't you look ready?! *smiles*Mentok: *bows* Thank you.William: Are you ready to get your job back then?Mentok: *Stands at attention* Aye!William: *salutes* Well then, we best be off. *stands with some effort and straps his axe onto his back*Mentok: do you need any help?William: No no. I'm old, but I can still fight with the best of them. *chuckles*Mentok: Oh course, have you already spoken with potential captains or will we figure that out in port?William: I've spoken with a few of my old buddies. They should be making arrangements as we speak.Mentok: Exelent.William: I hope that this works. If not, I'll try something else.Mentok: If does not then I will still be grateful for your charity.William: Don't mention it. Being a knight used to be my life. If that had been taken from me, I don't know what I would have done. There are some wrongs in this world that deserve to be righted.Mentok: Thank you for aiding me in my plight.William: Once again, it's no problem. It's my...duty! As a knight of Svelto!Mentok: as it is mine to aid those who need it.William: It's good to see a young man who respects honor. Nowadays, I've seen so many knights who prefer the glory. That is not what it's about though.Mentok: Glory means nothing if you have no honor to back it, besides becoming a freelance knight is a humbling ordeal,William: That's what everyone needs is a little humbling. I think you could easily give most of these young knights a run for their money.Mentok: It would be an honor to teach the next generation of knights,William: You're definitely qualified for the job.Mentok: Thank you William you humble me.William: *chuckles* You're already humble enough as it is.Mentok: that I am and almost to a fault. I am sorry but I have one last order of business to attend to and then I;ll head to the docks.William: *laughs* I'll probably be there by time you're finished.Mentok: until later my friend.
