Story 79: The Knight's Tale

In the ancient kingdom of Shadowfall, where the line between myth and reality blurred, an old knight named Sir Alaric sat under the autumn-hued trees with a young boy named Ethan. They were nestled in a secluded valley, far from the bustling cities, where the eerie presence of the undead was a mere whisper on the wind.

Ethan, with wide, curious eyes, listened intently as Sir Alaric recounted tales of bravery and valor from the days when he was a valiant warrior. The old knight's voice was a soothing balm, rich with the wisdom of years spent in battle and the solace found in teaching the next generation.

"Remember, Ethan," Sir Alaric said, his voice a deep rumble, "knowledge and wisdom are our greatest weapons against the darkness."
