"And who are you?"
Just another sod on this site, staring at this screen with a dull face. My name? I'll tell you eventually. My age? one of those numbers. I've been roleplaying for about 2 years now, 1 and a Half years spent on the phone app 'Geeking' and just under 6 months on this site. What kind of roleplayer am I? I honestly don't know. Certainly not the advanced novel writers but above the casuls in the free section. High casual? Yeah, that works. I don't know what else to put here, maybe a friend list when I get some. As for now.....
Also, don't trust that Online crap. I'm not at this laptop.

History
Sir Galey,
As of receiving this letter you are officially relieved of duty in His Majesty's Blue Footman. Your armor and weaponry will be returned to quartermaster promptly, you will however be retaining your accolades. This is NOT a discharge. It had been brought to my attention when your regiment returned from aiding our allies that the regiment had came under surprise attack in the night. The ambush resulted in numerous casualties, and the loss of Commander Hendricks. However, when the Commander fell, you displayed exemplary leadership and aided in routing the enemy. After consulting the surviving Men, it was unanimously decided that you would be promoted to acting Commander. As of receiving this letter, you will head to His Majesty's Palace and receive your new blade. Your new armor will be awaiting you at the Royal Smith's forges, to be fitted. Congratulations, Commander.
Sincerely, Commander Idex
Commander Galey,
Yet again a Letter has been sent to your quarters, and only spanning the time of two years! Many doubted my official recommendation, but you've proven them wrong with proving yourself more than able of the role. Ah, but this letter has more important meanings rather than just idle sayings. Through careful deliberations and consulting His Majesty, I've decided to conscript you into His Majesty's Second Royal Guard, the regiment who is currently under my command. as you did two years prior, your weapons and armor will be returned to the quartermaster, and you will report to The Royal Palace to be bestowed upon the new title. However, I must warn you of something; the position is very...lax compared to your current position. Your duties are quite simply to accompany the Royal Family, and make sure no harm shall befall them. Unless Dall faces another war, which mind you is very unlikely, your duties will remain as such. Congratulations, Knight
Knight Galey,
By Royal Decree, His Majesty King Astius II has summoned you to the Palace to discuss matters pertaining to the recent discovery of the Old World city. You are to answer this upon receiving this letter.
--Steward Balm
Galey set the missive aside, pondering the reason he'd been summoned. He would answer it, as would any summoned by His Majesty, but with the print being so vague, deduction of the reasoning were nearly impossible. After a moment, he gathered his vestment, slipping it on and heading outdoors. The streets of Dall were bustling with activity as per usual, perhaps even more so than usual with the news spreading like a sickness. Soon, these streets would be lined would adventurer and sellsword alike, all seeking their own slice of fortune. Galey let a brief chuckle part from himself before setting off down the cobblestoned road towards the Royal Palace.
"Guardsman". Prompted a passing soldier, clad in armor akin to his but with a flowing purple vestment.
"Knight". He replied with a subtle nod, the ordinary means of addressing your fellow man. The passing man was of His Majesty's Regulars, assigned to patrol the streets of Dall. Keeping the peace was usually simple, save for the odd moment when thugs decided to test their prowess against one of them. They were, to put it simply, subdued.
Trekking just another few minutes, Galey found himself at the ornate golden gates of the Palace, and at the spears of the Guardsman. "State your business, if you have any"
"Answering His Majesty's Summons". Yet the guards did not ease off, instead pressing closer still with visages hidden behind elegant masques of steel. "Display the missive".
"I do not have it on me, I left it-""Then no entry shall be permitted. Step away from the Palace gates"
The puzzled look upon Galey's face soon faded to just a twinge of anger, pushing the spear tips aside with his gloved hand. "Are you stupid? Do you not see the emblazoned vestment I wear? I am of His Majesty's Second Royal Guard! Anyone could tell you that..".
"And anyone could also tell you that I don't give a damn. Now get going or you'll get stuck..". The pair sneered, shifting to a 'at ease' standing. "I see..". Spoke a voice from behind the pair. Baritone, yet with an underlying tone of leadership; a voice used to giving orders. "So the gate guards are completely blind, yes?". The voice belonged to Commander Idex, a stout man clad in imposing armor. His silvered hair was combed back today and his face clean shaven, atypical from the normally bearded man. This was obviously an important day.
"N-No Sir!". They stammered, turning to attention towards the commander. "Oh? But this man is a Royal Guard, permitted to walk the Palace grounds. Yet you forbid him to pass..". The pair looked to each other, both a cesspit of trepidation and nervousness. The one whom addressed Galey was the one to speak. "I- We know of this Commander. But we were told not to allow anyone inside without His Majesty's Approval or a Summons.." Idex regarded them with a soft chuckle. "Ways of the old, my friends! Ah, you see in light of the newest discovery, many men and women will be coming to these gates. All answering to the call of his Majesty. Those all ways will be..revised". Idex looked over to Galey, ushering him along.
They passed vibrant blades of jade, sturdy oaks with leaves bellowing in a dance with the wind, and all tied together with a marble fountain at the garden's centre; grandeur equal; to if not greater than the Palace.
The Palace had architecture like no other in the district. The reigning monarch some three centuries earlier had shipped in an architect from an overseas district. She knew his ideas, although perhaps common where he came from, would be sufficiently exotic in her kingdom to inspire awe in the populous. And so instead of the peaks in the roof, she had gold domed towers instead. She had an open porch at the front held up with most ostentatiously detailed pillars, painted in brilliant white. Inside there were no doors on the ground floor, only arches. The flagstone floor had been shipped in also and was made with a stone of soft blue hues that had never before been seen in the district. After completion it's designer had been executed to ensure he could never make a replica.
Despite however many time Galey had been here, the Palace still enthralled him so. The Guardsman here happily let the pair in, and they walked the noiseless halls, each footstep crying out in an echo. His Majesty's chambers lie just ahead and Galey took a moment to rake his hair for imperfections. Once they approached the door heavy breaths were taken, and they stepped inside.
And the King righted himself in his throne, a benevolent smile on his face. He had on an elegant long tunic of silk, embellished with interlaced strands of gold. His trousers were simply white and his shoes stained black. The chair was carved of a fine oak, crested with several jewels and decorative metals forming an elegant coat of arms. Galey and Idex promptly knelt, which was cut short by a simple gesture from the King.
"Guardsman Galey, you are aware of why I brought you here, yes?"
"No, Sire. I just received the missive this morning"
"Ah! I forget things sometimes I'll tell you then". He took a sip from his chalice before leaning forward some. "You are aware of our scouts findings, yes? Well, you'd have to be deaf not to. You see, I've issued a calling of sorts to all the Kingdoms, looking for avid adventurers to plunge into the ruins and recover old world artifacts.."
"I'm aware..but what does that have to do with me, Sire?"
"Well, who is to say that they won't take the artifacts for themselves? We both know of the..unsavory denizens of this land. Who is to say they won't take it to another Kingdom and sell it there?"
"That is something I did not consider, Sire.."
"Ah, it is something my steward thought of. He is quite the smart fellow. Anyway, I've decided that I would send one of my most trusted Guardsman to accompany whomever arrives to the ruins, Me and Commander Idex both thought that should be you".
"I am most honored, Sire. I will not let you down".
"Oh, I know you won't...and one more thing. There is a promotion riding on your success, Knight". Galeys heart beat wildly, enough to where it may have pierced his armor. "Commander Idex is getting pretty old, is he not?""Still younger than you..". "Oh hush! Anywho, he had been pondering retirement for quite some time now. And who better to take his place than his most trusted guard?"
Galey smiled like an idiot, wanting to hug the man but thought better of it."Come, Await the arrivals with me"
He stood on the Kings right, thinking only one thing. What a lovely day
