Summary
On my other side stands Valla. Wearing her white tunic and plain brown pants. Isn’t she a Paladin? “Aren’t you a Paladin?” I can’t stop myself from asking. She nods and readies her massive tower shield in front of her. She holds in her other hand a unique axe that looks more like a musical instrument but with a wicked blade at the end.
“Yeah, I’m a Paladin,” she replies, eyeing the crowd with distaste.
“Then where’s your armour?” I’ve seen many Paladins, I’ve even trained under some of them, and they all stood proud in gleaming plate armour.
She looks at me briefly and smirks, the bell rings, “Honey, I am the armour,” and she’s off.
