Talk about the new kid was the only news that could rival the announcement of one of Gloreth’s descendants beginning knighthood. (You’re still excited to be in the same class as a Goldenloin.)

For someone who was rather determined to become a knight, Ballister was shy.

So it wasn’t a surprise when you got the chance to talk to the commoner(?) and his long, dark hair covered about half his face.

At the sound of your footsteps, he looks up at you with his inky looking, curious eyes.
