————————————————————
In a village near the castle.
"Good morning elder." ,-said a young boy coming back from his journey.
"Good morning squire Ryan." ,-said the Elder of the village. "How was it working in the fields over the summer?" ,-he asks
"Well it was tiring, but I also bulked up a little bit from the labor work." ,-said Ryan with more filled in muscles can be seen in his arms from the labor work.
Ryan is 16 years old, he went from a Paige to a squire at age 13. He used to live with his parents, but moved out at the time he became a squire still caring his family's name.
Now he works in making armor, follows Knights around who have no squires during the day, and takes care of the castle along with the other squires at night.
"Today is the grand celebration." ,-said the elder relaxing in front of his house.
"I know that's why I have to get to the castle as soon as possible a, bye wise elder." ,-said Ryan running as fast as he can towards the castle.
"These youngsters full of energy." ,-said the elder still sitting on his wooden chair watching Ryan run into the distance.
After half an hour of running with his maintenance equipment. He managed to reach in time just as he estimated.
"Looks like your early squire Ryan West." ,-said the castle guard, "your clear to go."
"Thank you very much." ,-said Ryan grabbing his stuff and heads inside the castle. Which it was three layers of internal walls surrounding it. As it was constructed on a hill.
Ryan walks fast towards the locksmith basement."Hello, Blacksmith?" ,-he opens the door and walking inside.
"He is not here." ,-said Squire Todd moving some tools to the workbench.
"Yes, he is out for today." ,-said Squire Goodman almost tripping over some equipment.
"Hey, lets been a few months." ,-said Ryan picking up the equipment that Goodman kicked on the floor.
These two guys are around Ryan's age as they want to the knights from an early age. Well everyone who enters as a squire here wants to become knights.
"Hello? I anyone here." ,-said a Knight walking in after Ryan settling in.
"What do you need?" ,-said Ryan talking to the knight.
"I guess the Blacksmith is not here." ,-said the knight looking around.
"Correct, What do you need?" ,-said Ryan waiting for the knight to answer.
"I need a much bigger shield." ,-said the Knight taking out his old shield, which was smaller than average and rusty.
"Hmm.... maybe this one will do, it has already the symbol on the crest of the kingdom in it." ,-said Ryan showing the Knight the shield much bigger than his original.
The Kingdom of Crolyra was just officially announced two weeks ago, but it has been in the making for over five years.
"That's would be perfect, I need to go the new king and queen will arrive any time." ,-said the new Knight sweating through his helmet.
"Wait, you need to pay." ,-said Ryan with a smile on his face as the knight almost walked out of the blacksmith shop without paying.
"Arg......alright here." ,-said the Knight leaving a few prices of gold on the counter.
"Thanks for doing business with you." ,-said Ryan as the Knight takes his new shield leaves the room.
"How can you talk to a Knight like that?" ,-said squire Todd baffled by the situation Ryan was in.
"Well this is a shop, their not going to get away from paying there things." ,-said Ryan, "plus he was in a hurry, so it worked well this time." ,-he said as they all went back working with molding and smithing metals inti swords and armor pieces.
"What are you doing Ryan?" ,-asked squire Todd after a few hours in seeing Ryan making something unusual with his armor selection.
"What? I'm making myself light armor." ,-said Ryan almost finishing his light chest plate, "it feels good." ,-he said adjusting his armor.
After a few hours of smelting and cooling down the brand new equipment and sets of armor.
"Finally it's all done." ,-said Ryan looking at the sets.
"Yes, now we can enjoy that festival the royal family are throwing." ,-said squire Goodman walking back into the shop followed by.
"Scratch that idea, you have a new duty today." ,-said the appointed royal knight walking into the blacksmith shop from Castle Hope.
"What happened?" ,-asked squire Todd to the Royal Knight needing assistance.
"We are short in Knights to do patrols around the villages." ,-said the royal knight.
"We are going on patrol?" ,-asked Ryan as the Royal Knight the new kingdom rounded up all the squires that have been left alone in the castle.
"That's what I'm asking, we are going to escort the king and queen to there new castle. Which you squires have been taking care of." ,- said the Royal Knight, "my name is Marshall, your job is to keep this section of land protected. Then we may decide your fate squires after this mission.
Soon the the squires have groups of six and in total there were 13 groups, 78 squires will test there honor and loyalty in there first mission.
"Alright let's go." ,-said Ryan as he carried a medium length sword and shield. Which light armor and chainmail under it and helmet.
"Where did you get that?" ,-asked Goodman taking out his spear.
"Just borrowed some equipment." ,-said Ryan adding some more armor. As he is a light armored soldier.
Squire Todd carries a long sword even if it may be long, it can take out multiple enemies at once.
Squire Goodman carries a long spear, he didn't have the proper training so he can only wield a spear and carry an wooden shield. May look older to other people with his beard.
Squire Oliver also has a spear, but also carries at shield and more equipped.
Both Squire Roy and Herbert carry crossbow and arrows on the side and a wooden/metal shield in their backs. Other units just have regular bows.
