The steward eyes you up and down. "Stone?" You nod your head. "Very well. The King, his Royal Majesty Edward Geronos IV, Lord of the Falls, Keeper of the Flame, Seer of the Dawn, has called you here today to thank you for your actions on the morning of September the 15th. Do you remember that morning?" You nod again.
He eyes your clothes for a moment, then goes on. "Very well. Kneel down." You hesitate, then do so. A grizzled looking older man, wearing resplendent plate armor, approaches you with a sword, touching your shoulders with it as the steward speaks. "I hereby knight you, Sir Samuel Stone." The knight backs away, and assumes a gaze towards the middle distance. You think you recognize him from the battle, but are not quite sure. It has been several months, after all.
As you stand, the steward goes on. "Our King has also seen fit to grant you a small parcel of land to establish a new village for his glory. You will be a vassal to your current lord, Count Aaron Foles. You may choose on of three available plots. One is heavily forested, with several rocky outcroppings. The second is at the intersection of a hilly region and a large plain of grass. The final is on the banks of a tributary to the great river that runs through our land." He pauses for a moment, a hint of interest peaking into his bored eyes. "So, Sir Samuel Stone, what shall it be?"
