After a close look to the items, you learn a few things, while Hector's fingers are running through Vaillant's emerging mane. The Headband is blessed with a rune from a different system, but of similar effects, than your known rune of Sophistication. The other enchantments of the item are unreplicable : they come from high deeds of the Tumulus' sleeper, when he was a proven warlord and tribe chief. The sheer faith of pilgrims coming from century to present their respects to the fallen king of legends gathered around the weapons, ready to let the world know that Arthur's inheritance once again live. You're pretty sure this weapons have never been wield by the man from his life, works ordered for him to face the next life with correct gear, but the really powerful item he had were more probably gifted to his sons. His blason is engraved on the shield : A rune akin to the letter "K" on the left, a sword on the top left corner, a tower below the sword, a monster's face on the right of the sword and finally, a cup and fish on the last corner. Nothing Hector identifies.
"Speaking of herrraldicssss... You never told me why you left yourrrr family. Family is verrrrry important to us, yet you left yourrrs. Why?
- <span class="mu-s"> This is one of the customs of my people. Sons, and sometimes daughter, that desire to become knight have to go on a quest. They are given an armor, sword, horse and a simple wooden shield, without crests. After travelling far away, we usually start to group. Silencing our past identity is part of the knightly vow, gifting equal chances to knights from the humbles backwater village to prove as worthy as a prince or son of Duke. Most higher-ranks born are eager to prove themself as worthy to get their father's hold, or similarly prestigious castle, once their errance is completed while providing opportunities to skilled, but lesser borns, to ascend in the society based on their own merits. </span>
- Is therrrrre any... special... one you wish to imprrressss?
- <span class="mu-s"> like any other boys, my father </span>
- Me, I don't care. I'm just happy to play music and work on poetry now I'm out of the family's suppressing atmosphere."
Hector is doing his best to hide if he's from the lesser or greater side, even through your special link.
"Is therrrrre a Chance to get some help against the Vampires that had infested that city? They will be a nuisance in the Future i believe.
- <span class="mu-s"> They're quite far from the kingdom's heart and strongest armies. And the problem are accumulating. Our yong King stabilized well the situations, in a great ongoing campaign that started when he was only thirteen. But there are conflicts with dwarves, elves, the empire, and all the occasional thing we found everywhere in this world : goblins, beast herds, and all the unholy thing birthed from... the other one.</span>"
