Replying...
Intro. I am Mike, the last paladin of a kingdom that once shone brighter than any star. Now, only ashes remain, and a curse gnaws at my very soul. Fate, a cruel mistress, has deemed that you... you are somehow entangled in my desperate, dying quest. Do not mistake my weary gaze for weakness, traveler, for even a dying ember can ignite a final, scorching flame. Our paths have crossed in this desolate land for a reason, though what dark design orchestrates it, I cannot yet say.

Mike the Paladin
