Nason's Passion

Nason, the Hero of the Paladin's Quest and also one of it's leaders... has a small quest with his friend Gelen against enemies, only to realize his insignificance to Nexus herself and expresses it to all he sees, as Gelen must speak sense into him.

:Nason the large, 6'4, muscular Hero walks through the FOTHL Grassy South Fields, it is 12:44AM...:
:12:45am... the three moons shine brightly in the sky, the grassy fields are large and spread long out upon the lands...:
:NEarby are the southern mountains which are connected to the Rekon mountains... but are impassable, the only entry is through the Rekon path:
:Nason walks nearby to the mountains..:
:He is approached by five, very large 8"7 Drehon Hammermen:
Drehon: It's dangerous around here.
Nason: Are you friend or foe? :Prepares his Ancient Sword:
Drehon: You'll find out.
~BATTLE!~

:Out of nowhere, Gelen the Magic Mage appears:
Nason: Following me again Gelen?
:Gelen is 28 years of age, light blue beard and blue hair, he has his Ancient Sword and Iron Shield in hands:
Gelen: You will get hurt without some assistance.

Nason: Why is FOTHL land being invaded like this?
Gelen: I told you Nason before... FOTHL Land protection to all borders is still new
Gelen: It is as if Zenon himself knows all about Rune's entries and borderlines...
Gelen: We must be ready for anything. These Drehons must have put on a good show for the guards!
:500 FOTHL Elite Calvary rush up:
Nason: ELITE CALVARY?
:The Elite Calvary General rides up on his golden armored white stallion with sword at hand:
General: These Drehons snuck by! Calvary, engage and slaughter them.
Nason: General, we can take them!
General: They engaged us first, attemping to thwart King Paulos' policies. Destroy!

-VICTORY!-

:The General rides up:
General: It is rather late for you all to be out?
Nason: I know, we just always want to help!
General: You do well Nason, be more careful. MEN, SECURE THE BORDERS!
:They ride off:
Gelen: I hope Paulos shall continue promoting me for my deeds to FOTHL.
Nason: I'm a Knight so far.
Nason: You were promoted to Squire, right?
Gelen: I'm just below you at Squire, yes.
Nason: All I want to do is reach Viscount.
Gelen: That's a high off rank.
Nason: That's all I really want.
FOTHL Ranks:Page, Ensign, Squire, Knigh, Captain, Major, Baronet, Baron, Viscount, Earl, General, Leader*, Marquis**, Lord***, Duke***
Knight*
Gelen: What should we do now?
Nason: The FOTHL General was right about it being late.
Nason: Let's go back to FOTHL.
:They head back to FOTHL:
:Long walk...:
Gelen: I think we should get horses.
Nason: Paladin's Quest are meant to be infantry.
Gelen: Someday we'll get horses.
:1:00am...:
:They approach the huge FOTHL walls that go on for miles, that not even Zenon himself can get by:
:They go through the main HUGE doors, and they close right behind them, leading them to an immediate huge FOTHL barracks that is right in front of the gate:
:Then, leads into the main Town Center of the whole kingdom itself, which is beyond huge:
:To the left, is the numerous Rich/Wealthy Townspeople families Townsman areas:
:In the middle are the villagers, the usual folk:
:Then there is to the right, the numerous peasant area for the semi poor:
Gelen: See you later Nason. :heads home on the main FOTHL road...:
:FOTHL is more than just a medieval city... it's incredible:
:So many huge buildings:
:Nason walks through the city:
:Some townspeople are around...:
:Nason goes to Townsman Area 2, which consists some of the wealthiest houses:
:He then walks into his two floor house:
:Nason opens door with key:
:Very nice designed house, painted red:
:He walks into house, the stairs nearby and the hallways to the kitchen/dining room/living room well set out:
Nason: :shuts and locks:
:A 21 year old woman stands at the stairS:
Nason: ..
Nason: Leia, I ah...
Leia: You're late..
Nason: I felt I should have checked the south.
Nason: Found some unruly Drehons, helped the FOTHL Calvary clear them out.
Leia: That is none of your duty.
Nason: Yes it is :touches the stair bottom: I am a Protector of FOTHL, and a leader of the Paladin's Quest.
Nason: Anything that is against FOTHL is my duty.
Leia: What about our children? What if you are lost in all that fighting?
Nason: Leia, I told you if anything was to happen to me FOTHL has the life debt bill.
Leia: You think I would rather have money than you?
Leia: While I could PREVENT it from happening?
Nason: This is a peak of a Heroes' life, and FOTHL's fate, no, RUNE'S fate hangs in the balance
Nason: Leia, :walks up the stairs:
Nason: If I can do something to just ASSIST in the cementing of FOTHL's eternal legacy
Nason: I will do whatever I must. That's what Pure Goods do, for Nexus/FOTHL... and Rune.
Leia: I'm surprised you never became a Holy Knight :walks through the hallway:
Nason: Leia I... am sorry to have made you worry.
:She goes into their bedroom:
Nason: ::sigh::
:Nason walks into the beautifully furnished bedroom, large bed with a few mirrors, closets/bookcases:
:Nason takes off his armor and changes to sleeping clothes:
:Leia in bed, watching him:
Nason: ..
Nason: What is that look, Leia, what is that look supposed to mean?
Nason: I'm a piece of dirt because I cannot solidify more of FOTHL's reign? Is that it?
Leia: SHUT UP! :sits up: It's not that at all, you are JUST OVER BATTERING YOURSELF WITH THAT.
Nason: I think I need a drink :Walks out:
Leia: .. :sobs and lays in bed:
:Nason walks down the steps, all annoyed:
EpyonDeathStar: darn
:Nason walks to the kitchen and takes a Ginger Ale from the ice box:
:He snaps the can open and drinks:
:The phone rings:
Nason: Damn phone at 1:08am
:Nason walks oveR:
Mantar247: *they had phones and soda pop?*
:Nason picks it up:
Nason: HELLO?
Man: Nason, you home safely?
Nason: I'm fine Gelen.
Gelen: Just checking.
Nason: GELEN I'M YOUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR
Nason: You would have seen me
Gelen: oh yes
Nason: I'm sharing myself a Ginger Ale and all burdened due to my insignificane
Gelen: ...ok... want me to meet you on the porch as always?
Nason: ...shit, sure. :hangs up:
Nason: ::walks out with a few more Gingers:
:He walks outside as Gelen walks up in his usual blue clothes:
:They shake hands and sit down, looking at the beautiful three moons:
:They sit on the white bench next to the door on Nason's porch:
Nason: Nexus is out there... battling a hell of a force.
Nason: And what am I doing... but sipping ginger ale.
Gelen: Nason...
Gelen: You overdo your insignificane
Gelen: You do what you can in your dimension
Nason: Paulos is a HERO, like me
Nason: I am supposed to be doing more like he did
Nason: If he would give me a mission, if he'd only give me a mission I would do anything for him and die if needed.
Nason: Just to prove my damn self :slams down his empty ginger ale can and grabs another, walking down the porch to look at the moons:
Gelen: Nason
Gelen: You're over doing it! Listen
GElen: I know all about Nexus as you know, I've studied for years
Gelen: Nexus if she would tell you to do something
Gelen: Or want you to do it, SHE WOULD TELL YOU, or PAULOS WOULD!
Gelen: Your fate is not decided, it's up to you.
Nason: IT'S NOT LIKE THE PAST WHEN OUR ANCESTORS HAD TEH CHANCEI N FOTHL JUST TO WORK HARD AND FIGHT SOME HORDES OF EVIL.
Nason: FOTHL IS BUILT fully and economically, and the FACT IS Now Evil is even WORSE THAN EVER!
Gelen: Nason..
Gelen: You just want to do your part so much eh.
:Nason scratches his blonde hair and walks around:
Nason: I feel I'm not doing enough, I don't think Leia understands my concerns either
Nason: I protect not just for FOTHL, Honor, Goodness, NExus and Rune
Nason: I do it for INNOCENCE!
Nason: Like my 4 children sleeping in that house
Nason: If they were exposed to evil, they would be slaughtered! I CANNOT LET EVIL PREVAIL!
Gelen: EITHER WAY THERE WILL ALWAYS BEA SOURCE OF EVIL, NASON!
Gelen: Maybe you don't know it... but evil will never be destroyed.
Gelen: No matter how good FOTHL becomes
Gelen: Nexus is no longer here to guide us
Gelen: ::places his empty can down:: Believe me... if she was, I would be glad :chuckles:
Nason: ::laughs too:: yes...
Gelen: Nason
Gelen: I suggest something to you
Nason: Eh?
Gelen: Go into your house, snuggle with Leia, tell her you love her more than anything and get some sleep.
Nason: ...thank you Gelen. :pats his shoulder: Thank you.
Gelen: Do not mention it, see you tomorrow at the HQ. :walks off porch:
Nason: ::picks up the cans and walks into the house with them and throws them out::
:Nason closes/locks door, and turns off all lights and hurries upstairs:
:Nason goes into his daughter's room to check on his 2 year old daughters, as they sleep, then he goes to his bedroom:
:Leia is in bed still, Nason snuggles into the nice bed:
:The beautiful blonde haired Leia looks to him:
Leia: Nason... I'm sorry about earlier
Nason: No... I am. Gelen made me realize my significane.
Nason: Not just to FOTHL, or Rune
Nason: But to this family and people
Nason: ::kisses her:: I love you.
Leia: I love you too...
:They snuggle, then fall asleep:
