Ser Imass nodded grimly when Kreig accepted. He was glad. It was always good to get a new brother in arms. The Knight knew that Kreig didn't have the proper education to understand fully what the Knights were about, but all he needed was a good Knight patron back in Syliras to teach him the ways of the order.
Putting a heavy hand on the man's shoulder again, Imass gave him one last piece of advice,
"Kreig, I know it may be hard to understand me, but have faith in me. Have faith in the order and it will guide your path. Come with us to Sahova, then return to Syliras for your proper training. I know you will see what I mean Kreig, I believe in you! Just stick with it and you will find a life long career!"After Ser Imass made Kreig say vows to return to Syliras to at least give it a try as a squire, the Knight wrote him a letter of recommendation. He even gave it a proper Knightly seal to make it official.
To Syliran recruitment and whomever this may concern,
From this day onward, Kreig Messer is to be considered a squire of the Syliran Knights. I have made him speaks vows of obedience and commitment. I have instructed him to present this letter to all who question him as well as the recruitment center on his arrival in Syliras.
It is this Knight's humble opinion that Kreig should be patroned by Ser Dontos the Bold and be trained to be a frontline soldier. He is tough, strong, and talented; I swear it on my own experience. He was meant to be a fighter.
Also, Kreig is liable to brawl, but he has the heart of a warrior.
