Chapter Text
1.61 Knight tried to move, but felt himself sinking to the ground. No good. He had to stand. He had to be a shield. A Knight. He moved in an L-shape, but his name was more than that. He was a protector. A champion of the innocent. She had told him that. He remembered. He remembered everything.
2.42 “Oh, I’ve got [Advanced Crafting], and I only need a pairs for me and L—uh, I just need two. Toren can run pretty fast through the snow since, you know, he doesn’t get tired.”
3.00 E “That’s good. I heard you and didn’t want to interrupt, but I am in a bit of trouble. My name is Laken Godart.”
3.00 E “My name is Durene. How did you end up here, Mister Laken?”
3.00 E Mr. Laken? How odd. Is there any country I know of that uses that kind of title? I smile ruefully.
3.00 E “Here you are, Mister Laken. I’m sorry it’s a bit burnt.”
3.00 E “It smells delicious. And call me Laken.”
3.00 E That’s me Laken Godart, blind son to two fairly affluent parents, one a lawyer, the other a businessman. I’ve travelled more places than Durene’s heard of, and I’m blind. That’s a basic description, but the key to selling yourself is embellishment.
3.00 E “This is Laken. He’s a stranger to these parts.”
3.00 E “I have to go help, Laken. Will you be okay? I can take you there—”
3.00 E “That’s impossible! Laken! What are you saying?”
3.00 E “Hear my words, that they may be passed down for posterity. On this day, I, Laken Godart, declare myself Emperor of the Unseen, sovereign lord and ruler of all I survey. Not only Emperor; I declare myself Protector of Durene’s House as well.”
3.01 E “Oh yes. I’ve made a good spot for myself, Miss Yesel. And I can get everything Laken needs here—”
3.01 E “Durene? Why don’t you go fetch us some more firewood? I’m sure Mister Laken is feeling quite chilly.”
3.01 E I bite my lip as Durene rises without a word to do as Yesel says. Mister Laken is feeling fine, thanks. And Durene shouldn’t have to obey someone else’s order in her own home.
3.01 E “Durene is a good child, Mister Laken. Sometimes. But we put her out here so she wouldn’t cause trouble if—has she told you what she is?”
3.01 E “Laken? I—I don’t know. You did something just now. The kids—they’ve all run off!”
3.01 E “The kids say you did something, Mister Laken. They weren’t hurt none although they’re fair terrified. But we’d like to know what happened.”
3.01 E “Mister Laken, you seem like a nice enough young man. But there’s something you don’t know about Durene.”
3.01 E “You don’t understand the situation, Mister Laken. Durene’s our village’s problem, and she was easy enough to manage before this.”
3.01 E “I’m not doing anything! I just want to help Laken!”
3.01 E “You don’t belong with our kind. You help—but we keep you away for a reason. Remember your father? If his kind came back or you lost control—you’re not like us, Durene. And Mister Laken doesn’t know that!”
3.01 E “If that’s what Laken says, he stays. I’ll take care of him here. Now, you’ve gotta leave, Mister Prost. This is my house, and you’re not welcome here any longer.”
3.01 E “Laken. I—I’m sorry I lied.”
3.01 E “Laken! LAKEN!”
