One Crest to Rule them All

Solaris sighed, “your words are kind My lady. I’d mine you may have overheard were harsh, but all that I do and have done for him has been for his good and well being. It may not seem like it but I care about Zuri as if he were my little brother and will protect him as such.” She said and turned to Darius. “Well.....two are better then one I suppose.@

She would clap her hands together in excitement as she smiled “excellent!” She moved towards them as she seemed to have this air about her that was warm and vibrant “I understand how much the boy means to you, he is after all the hope is the land and we all should be there to guide and nurture him.

Evenings he’ll be able to rest or do as he needs unless of course other classes or courses are needed. But yiu two plus the mage I assigned to him will be his teachers.”

Zuri blinked before pointing at himself "Swordsmanship in the morning and magic in the afternoon? Oh man my days just got crazy huh?"he said before balling up his fist charged up with energy "Alright I can do this! I wont let anyone down"he said with a determined looking on his face as his crest began to flash slightly as a warm air seemed to stir around him and the others

This kid seems intersting for sure"Darius said with a flash in his eye "He defintitely reminds me of the last King of Zulana...."he said before turning to Solaris "I think we can give it to him the best that way, his enemies aren't going to be Knights that honor their pride as Knights that's for sure. Bandits, thieves and assassins abound in Queen Evara's kingdom"he said shaking his head "She's raised taxes and the villages are suffering, discontent is growing amongst the citizen, the City Guard and the Queen's Knights are as much of the problem as anything else."he sighed

“I’ve seen some of their cruelty first hand. They only support her because those paying them support her. I think if we can stop the lords that support her the lackeys are sure to fall as well. But that is only a theory.” She said
