    Excerpt from 'De illustribus conditoribus ordinis equestris Sancti Ganeonis' ('The Illustrious Founders of The Chivalric Order of Saint Ganeo') by brother Dormitius


    In the year of Our Lord two thousand and second at the seventh day of December the saint Ganeo did from heaven descend and unto the noble lord Lucas* such he spake words, lowering the holy arm in which he held the chalice: 'Pious paladin and beloved son of mine. Take ye this very chalice and upon his flowing streams found ye this noble order'. This said, the saint extended the holy arm in which he held the chalice and bade him drink. When the noble lord Lucas received the last drop, the saint raised the holy arm in which he held the chalice and blessed the order.


    ** Lucas called of Three Towers aka des Trois-Tours, better known as chevalier des Trois-Tours or Lucas the paladin. Seldom the names Aetheoran and Cavalier Threetowers are also used with reference to this person. Among elves referred to as Rochir o Nelvarad or Roquen i Nelmindono. Rumour has it that Yrinnyn was also the same hero.

    I only have this one piece in reach. Some people will recognise it, but it has been less than mildly edited.

    ===================

    Excerpt from 'De illustribus conditoribus ordinis equestris Sancti Ganeonis' ('The Illustrious Founders of The Chivalric Order of Saint Ganeo') by brother Dormitius


    An angel did from Heaven descend and unto the evil minion such he spake words lowering the holy arm in which he held the Chalice:

    'Thou shalt perish, servant of evil and thy sombre heart be delivered unto fiery blaze of puryfying flame'

    This said the angel extended the holy arm in which he held the Chalice and gave the dying lord Lucas to drink.

    'Arise, treacherously stabbed knight and deliver justice unto him who betrayed thee.'

    This said the angel raised the holy arm in which he held the chalice and blessed the noble lord Lucas.

    'Confess thy guilts and ask forgiveness!' intoned the noble lord Lucas as he proceded towards the blasphemer, who did not utter a word and struck the noble lord Lucas with his unholy blade.

    'Thou hast chosen and shalt suffer what cometh of thy choosing. In the name of Good and Right hereby do I condemn thee to death to which thou shalt be committed.' proclaimed the noble lord Lucas and in one blow beheaded the servant of evil.

    Chevy, don't you do anything else than run around in armour and slay evil? Have you ever written anything not involving a high and mighty paladin?

    Actually I have, but I was ages ago... the last thing that didn't include anything blatantly paladinish was a year ago. Ten poems or something, everything got deleted when I lost my illusions about the subject of those poems ;)
