The "Knights tournaments"-story with Turylon and Adolf

[HappyAdolf]

A thread for a story me and Sir Turylon started in the topic Knights Tournaments. Everyone may write here, too, and has to include himself as a character ;)

The mighty knight Unbeaten (and thus Happy ) Adolf is charging onto Sir Turylon, trying to kick him off his horse with his lance...
Sir Turylon falls down and they both draw swords...
Adolf sees the sword that Sir Turylon pulls out. Turylon sees the fear is Adolf's eyes as he realizes this is going to be one of the few last breathes he takes.
Happy Adolf draws his mighty bihander-sword and prepares to fight his strong enemy. They both fight against each other, but in the middle of the battle something happens that neither of them and none of the people who watched them had expected...

*Other forum members may not be killed, so don't try to kill me in that tournament, Sir Turylon :D They may not be killed because then they couldn't continue to write here...*

[Sir Turylon]

bah. fine. no killing.

The two knights lower their big swords (Turylon's is bigger though, it was a gift from the German Emperor), and raise the visors on their helms as a mysterious knight clad in green armor approaches the tournament grounds. The crowd hushes as the green knight trots out onto the field and dismounts white horse they were riding. The knight kneels and takes off their helm, revealing that is the knight is a she. Adolf and Turylon exchange quizizical looks and turn to face the tournament sponsor, Lord Frujin of the Frujinites. The female knght speaks...

k, female has to respond now.

[HappyAdolf]

*I would have included a female knight, too :D But no female forum member should take her role, but we shall write about her. Every forum member who wants to get into the story has to introduce his/her character by him/herself. But we still need the wife of the king :D *

Almighty Adolf turns around and looks into the beautiful face of the female knight. Then he has a weird feeling in his guts and doesn't see or hear anything around him but the beutiful face and the sweet voice of the female knight. "Hell, I fell in love!", he said to himself. The female knight began to speak: "I am Lady Gwinneth of Ravenstone. Last week the castle of my father was captured by our old enemy, Lord de Clay. I managed to escape and the men of de Clay didn't think I was a threat, because I am only a girl. But my father tought me how to fight, and now is the time to show those filthy thugs my skills! But I can't capture the castle alone, Lord Frujin of the Frujinites, please send me some knights to help me." Then she looked up to Lord Frujin and her long golden hair flew in the wind. Then she saw the two knights who fought in the tournament and looked in Adolf's eyes. Adolf walked towards her, kneeled before her and said: "I'm at your service, sweet Lady Gwinneth. I will protect thee with my humble life, my fair Lady." Then he looked up into her face and saw by the smile she looked at him with, that she liked him, too...

[HappyAdolf]

That gonna be a great story... c'mon guys, write here, too!

[Sir Turylon]

Sir Turylon watched as Sir Adolf the happy fumbled all over the pretty female knight. She was indeed fair, but he knew of a fairer maiden. He saw his betroved sitting in the stands and she was watching him, waiting for him to announce his decision to help the maiden reclaim her lands. He smiled slightly at the lovely Lady Kathering of Eagle's Brook, and walked towards Lady Gwinneth. "By my honor I will help avenge the wrongs that have been forced upon you m' lady." He nodded at Adolf the happy in acknowledgement of the future quest and they grasped arms in brotherhood towards the task. Lord Frujin rose just then, and the three knights lowered themselves to kneel. The trumpets announced for all to head the words of the wise lord of the tournament as the other knights gathered around.

[Largefry07]

I am Sir Turylon's humble servent and good friend. I go on all of the adventures that my master embarks on.

As Lord Frujin briefed the three brave knights on their new mission, Sir Turylon's loyal servent knew that he had to perpare his master's noble steed. Sir Turylon's horse was the fastest horse of the land and the horse and the servent became good friends too.

Once Lord Frujin was done briefing the knights on their mission their first action was to...

[HappyAdolf]

... gather an army to defeat those bastards. They should walk all over the land to find enough people willing to help. Turylon said goodbye to his Lady and he and Adolf swore an oath to protect Gwinneth's life with their own. "Ah, and Adolf..." she said lowered her head. "Yes, M'lady?", he responded. She put her arms around his neck and gave him a kiss on his cheek. "Thank you for your help... darling.", she said. Adolf fell nearly unconscious as she kissed him, and everybody could see it. Turylon and his squire Largefry nearly laughed their butts of. Gwinnwth just smiled at Adolf in a very sweet way. Then they went into the nearest town and everybody went into another shop to buy supplies and weapons. Largefry bought some food and water, Turylon some arrows and bolts for our bows and crossbows, Gwinneth bought herself new armor and I lazy butt watched them :D. As Gwinneth came back, she looked even sweeter in her new armor. Her breastplate reflected the sun and her stomach was unarmored. For her feet she wore light leather sandals and some iron greaves over them. Her arms were protected by iron bracers. And on the left arm she had a small wooden shield for blocking attacks. She looked so sweet... nearly godlike. When they walked through the forest, Adolf couldn't take his eyes from her. But then suddenly some thieves jumped out of the trees. Their leader talked to the knights: "Give us all your money! And weapons! And armor! And food! And clothes! Ahh, just give us all you own!" None of them wanted to give all their belongings to the thieves, so they all drew their swords...

[Sir Turylon]

The rogues sneered at the three knights and pulled out small crossbows. Adolf screamed and jumped in front of Gwinneth to protect her. Sir Turylon just shock his head and pointed out that the crossbows had no bolts ****ed in them. Adolf smiled sheepishly as Gwinneth thank him for being such a brave knight in trying to protect him. Turylon and the rogues nearly gagged at the spectacle. The rogues were about to pull out their long knives when a whistling arrow shot over the shoulder of Turylon straight into the neck of the lead rogue. Turylon noticed the arrows fletching was blue and white and smiled for he recognized who used that type. Adolf screached like a girl when he saw all the blood gushing out of the rogue, and he beared his face in Gwinneth's bossum. Turylon just shock his head again and drew both of his shimmering swords out. Not many knights were proficient in the use of two weapons, but Turylon spent a year with Sir Miagi from Chinatown over in New Yorkshire. He dashed towards the rogues, and watched as they ran off like scared children. Adolf was too busy being "consoled" by Gwinneth, so Turylon sheathed his sword and walked back to great the mysterious archer. It was none other than Lady Katherine. "My dear, that show was splendid. Have you been improving your aim?" Katherine removed the hood from her head and nodded. "Why yes honey, Lady Robina of Shirewood was over the other day." Turylon nodded and held the closk Kathering had taken off. Her gorgeous figure was accented by the blue leather bodice she wore over top of the silken shirt. Her legs were clothed in a transperent sheath of some sort of thin material and her shins were covered in dark blue strapped boots. Chainmail was too bulky for her to wear when she fought with her bow, so she prefered not to wear. Turylon and Katherine walked back down to Adolf, who was still buried in Gwinneth's bossum. "Ah-hem. They are gone, you can stop that now. We should get going again."

[HappyAdolf]

Adolf took his head up slowly and then he said: "Ahem-hem... err... well, I... I just can't stand seeing so weak people who die with one shot, you know. They are depressing me. I like enemies who are strong, enemies it is worth fighting against, enemies that are worthy of ME, the mightiest knight IN THE WORLD!!!!" He drew his sword and held it high into the air. "But, well, such weak people depress me because, well... in my first fight my enemy sticked his sword in my belly and I sank down on the ground... with the first hit... such guys remind me of this fight, you know. But since that day I always become a berserker when anyone hits me with his sword in my belly. I got so angry that I hacked that guy into pieces. I unleashed all of my wrath on this one guy. I felt much better after that. From that day on I was called Almighty Adolf, because I was mortally wounded when I killed him.", he said. "Oooohh, you my sweet hero!!!", Gwinneth said and kissed him on his lips. The only thing he said was "Glbs! Hgll... uff!" and then he fell unconscious. Everyone laughed heartily, even Adolf himself, as he awaked. "Well", he said, "I'll have to practise a bit more kissing without falling unconscious!" Everyone laughed, and then he kissed Gwinneth five minutes long. This was the nicest moment in their lives.
Later they built up some tents as a camp for the night. Katherine and Turylon went into one tent and Adolf and Gwinneth in the other one. Only Turylon's squire Largefry had no girl to join him in his tent. Because of this he couldn't await becoming a knight. Knights could get sweet Ladys much easier.
In that night there was much noise in these tents. Only in Largefry's tent it was silent. But then suddenly Adolf got out of Gwinneth (ahem...) and called: "Hey, Gwinneth, look out there! There is somebody! He's surly a thief!" "A thief! Plese, protect me, my hero!", she said and kissed his cheek. He pulled on his armor as fast as possible and took his greatsword. He went out of the tent and hacked off one of the thief's arms. "What are you doing here??", he asked the thief. " I say nothing!", he responded. "Then you'll have to die!", Adolf said and hacked off his other arm. "Well, do you talk now?", Adolf asked. "No! I'll run away! I still have legs, haha!", the thief said and ran away. Adolf threw his sword at him and hit his back. He was dead. Who sent the thief? What did he want do do? Maybe they would know this later.
As Adolf returned to Gwinneth, she asked him: "Hey, Adolf, why is your beard red? As we had sex together your beard was black!" "What? My beard is red?", he asked and touched it with his fingers. "Ah, this!", he said and laughed heartily. "This is just the blood of this filthy thief!" They both laughed. Then, after Adolf cleaned his beard, they kissed each other again and had sex again and told each other funny jokes and laughed heartily. They had much fun this night.

[Sir Turylon]

Meanwhile back in reality... Turylon heard the comotion and exited the tent. "We'll finish that game of chess when I return, my love." He said as he emerged just in time to see Adolf the very Happy and Gwinneth the very tired go back into their tent. Largefry was sitting outside his tent poking at the coals of the fire. "Squire, what was all the comotion about?" Largefry just kept poking the coals, barely looking up at Turylon. "Squire, what's wrong?" Largefry pouted and responded, "Alas, everyone but I get the pretty women. I wish I could become a knight and get a pretty woman to be with me." Turylon took a seat next to the young squire and took a stick to poke the coals with. "Matters of the heart are both delightful and depressing, my lad. the life of a knight is just not about hacking people and making love to women though. A good knight is also pious. He is patient and kind. He seeks to help rather than be helped. The rewards are greater than just a beautiful woman to be with. Remember these words lad. To the just and the right go the spoils of the wicked and acursed." The squire gave a slight smile and nodded. "Yes m'lord. I will remember that forever. I still wish I had someone to shower with affection though." Just then a horse approached the encampment. They could not see the rider, but they appeared young. Turylon stood up and hailed the rider. "Hail to thee stranger, how might we be of service this night?" The rider dismounted and walked towards the squire and Turylon. "I am dame Lilly from Frujinton. I seek Sir Turylon and Lady Katherine, are they here?" Turylon stepped forward and bowed. "I am Sir Turylon lass, Lady Katherine is in my tent waiting. Why do you search fir us?" The young lady removed the hood from her face and the fire glowed in her eyes. She had long flowing red hair and bright blue eyes. She was only a few inches shorter than Largefry in stature, but her body had developed earlier than most. The squire gasped and stood frozen as if in stone. Turylon leaned over and shook his shoulder slightly. "Squire, would you mind showing Lilly to my tent. Lass, will you be requiring lodging for the evening?" Lilly nodded and smiled at the squire, "Why who would you be handsome." Largefry tried to talk but nothing but gibberish came out. Turylon gave him a quick kick to the side of his foot. "His name is Largefry and he is me squire. He has only a few more months left before being knighted. Squire, don't turn into Adolf the happy. Take the young lady to Katherine." Largefry blinked and blushed at the same time. He bowed low and motioned to Turylon's tent. "This way m'lady." Lilly giggled and sauntered towards the tent, making sure she swayed her hips a tad. Turylon just laughed as Largefry nearly tripped over his own feet twict on the way to the tent. Loud noises were coming from Adolf's tent so Turylon rapped on the pole a few times with his sword. "Hey you two, keep it down." Adolf began giggling and yelled back.. "YES!" Turylon just shook his head and went back into his tent.

[Largefry07]

Once Lilly had a talk with Katherine Largefry asked why she came. She looked at him with her blue eyes and said they had some lady stuff to talk about. The smart man that Largefry is didn't believe and knew that she wouldn't of come all this way in the dead of night to talk lady stuff to her good friend. But Largefry didn't think much of this and ask if she wanted to have a little fun with the tent that Adolf was enjoying himself in? " What do you plan to do?" She asked. " Oh just have a little fun with them thats all," he anwsered. So they went into his tent to think of what they could do to Adolf's tent.

So later that night when the two tents where quiet and the one was still as loud as ever. Lilly and Largefry creeped out of their tent and went over to the hot coals that Largefry was at when they first met. The night was very quiet except for Adolf's tent. " How long can thay go at it?" Lilly asked. " I don't know but it has been far too long." Largefry picked up a shovel and scooped some hot coals up. Meanwhile Lilly got Adolf's pants that he so foolishly left them hanging to dry after the little engagement with the rogues. Lilly toook them and hid them in a snake hole that was nearby. Largefry slid the hot coals undernether the tent, for he knew that he was to fat to be on top.

Largefry and Lilly ran for their tent when they heard a cry loud enough to be heard for miles....

[HappyAdolf]

"AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!", Adolf screamed. "What's up with you, darling?", Gwinneth asked. "Damnit, somebody put a piece o' hot coal under our tent! I think we shouldn't be so loud..." "Alright, Darling.", she answered sadly. "Well, I will go out for some minutes to cool my hot ***.", He said and kissed her goodbye. He took his sword with him, just in case if there were any bandits. But after cooling his butt in the river, he couldn't find his pants. "Sigh. Then I'll have to look after them...", he said and searched the ground. As he found them in a snakehole, he saw a peasant walking to the camp. "What do you want here, peasant? May I help you?" "Ah, M'lord! Please, help me! My farm was overrun by bandits!" "Yes, I will help you. I will go to your farm and free it. I just have to tell my friends about the mission... TURYLON! GWINNETH! Come with me! Here is a peasant who needs our help! But let me do the fighting, Turylon! It's my mission!" "Ahh, alright. But I will not help you when you're whining like a little girl again!", Turylon answered. "You don't have to!", Adolf laughed and they went away...

*Turylon, you may not write things like in your last post "back to reality..."!!!
That made the whole thing I wrote as if it was just a dream... stop that!!!No one may write such things, alright? Good.*

[HappyAdolf]

*Because Turylon made my post as if it were a dream through his "back to reality", I'll write another one without anyone replying to my former post.*

As they walked to the farm of the poor peasant, the peasant thanked Adolf and Turylon for helping him. Adolf told him: "You don't have to thank us for our sevice, peasant. We are knights, and it is our duty to protect the poor and innocent." Turylon nodded. As they reached the farm of the peasant, they tried to make a plan how to get the thieves away. But just in that moment some other thieves jumped down from some trees behind them. "Protect the peasant! Get them, Turylon!", Adolf screamed. "Now it is your chance to prove yourself worthy of being a knight, Largefry. It is a knight's duty to protect the poor and helpless. If you protect the peasant you can fulfill your first knightly service, even if you are just a squire. And Lilly will love you for that.", Turylon said to his loyal squire. Largefry took out his morningstar and engaged the bandits. In this moment the bandits in the farm charged out and shot with crossbows at Adolf and Turylon. But it was night and they couldn't aim in the darkness, so they hit Largefry in his back. Adolf ran to Largefry and helped him as Turylon fended off the bandits who attacked Largefry. "I'll only help you if you never put coals under my tent again, Largefry!", Adolf laughed and ripped off a pice of the small soldier's skirt he wore over his armor to bind Largefry's wound. As the bandits who attacked from behind were defeated by Turylon, Adolf told him to take Largefry with him and flee from the bandits, who had at least 5 times more people. Lilly, Kathrine, Largefry and Turylon ran back, but Gwinneth stayed at Adolf's side. "No, darling", he said, "You have to flee, too. I have sworn to protect your life.I will fight, you have to flee. I will come, when you are in a safe distance." Gwinneth looked sad. "Alright", she said, "but I don't like leaving you alone. Bye, darling." She kissed him goodbye and Adolf fell nearly unconscious again because of the kiss. But then suddenly a bolt of one of the thieve's crossbows hit Gwinneth's upper leg. "Adolf! Help me! I cannot walk, he hit my leg!" "Gwinneth! I will protect you!", he answered. Turylon and the others didn't flee, because they didn't think that Adolf could kill the bandits alone. "Turylon! I told you I want to fight alone!", Adolf called to him. "Bah! Alright, but if you die it is not my fault.", he answered. Then an arrow hit Adolf's belly. "AARGH! Who did this? This... makes... me... angry... ASSHOLE!", he screamed and hacked the thief who shot him into two pieces with just one hit of his sword. Then he killed all others while screaming around like crazy "Feel my wrath, bastards!" After that his sword and armor were overall red and the ground full of blood. "Err, you know, this made me angry, and when I get angry, I often make a, err... mess like this. But now I'm feeling better.", he explained to the others and laughed. "I knew the guy is insane...", said Turylon.
After that "killing-party" as Adolf called it (and turylon called him insane) they asked the peasant why the thieves occupied his farm. "They told me that they want to wait here for a Lady... they wanted to kidnap her or kill her." "Was her name Gwinneth?", Gwinneth asked. "Yes, it was...", the peasant said. "Then they are maybe sent by Lord de Clay. Or maybe not... maybe somebody else wants to kill us...", Gwinneth said. "Well, we will know it soon enough.", Adolf said. Then they spent the night in the farm of the peasant, and everyone had something to think about. Largefry thought about his fight against the thieves, that he fought like a real knight. And his Lady, Lilly, cared about his wounds. Gwinneth thought about who could want to kill them or if de Clay would send simple thieves to get them out of the way. And Adolf was sad, because Gwinneth was wounded and they couldn't make sex together now. But what would happen the next day? They will see....

[Sir Turylon]

lol. Adolf the Happy bezerker! hehe


Sir Turylon watched the crazed knight hack and mince the bandits into small pieces. Katherine had taken Largefry back to lilly who dressed his wounds and "cheered" him up. After Adolf the happy bezerker had pummeled the bandits, Turylon helpd him and Gwinneth back to the tents. "We should have taken one prisoner and interrogated him for information." Turylon said as he struck the tents down. "Now, we must move out quickly. Who knows what other evil lays in waiting for us and Lady Gwinneth." They tended the wounds and Katherine, who was a cleric as well as a ranger, patched the wound on Gwinneth. Adolf was still sore from the previous night and freshly from the battle. They put him on the tents in the wagon where Gwinneth sang cheerfully to him. It was a good thing that Largefry was wearing a set of chainmail that Sir Turylon had devised. It looked like any typical woven shirt of steel, but it contained a composite of different layers of interloking links. He saw the very peculiar type of armor when he was passing through Chobam, England in his way to Frujinton. The outer layer was comprised of regular steel links that were dipped in boiling tar to help protect them from the weather. The second layer was composed of a light alloy of steel and bronze. The final layer was produced from a very strange material he had never seen before. It was stronger than steel, but lighter. The smith said the older people called it titanisca, but he had no name for it. Turylon noticed that the layers were all riveted differently, so the links over-laped the ones in the previous layers. This would stop the normal bodkin arrow, but a bolt would penetrate the layers by a quarter of a inch. Largefry was wearing the mail shirt that night, and it saved his life.

After the tents were struck and they set off, a heavy rain started to pour. Adolf was singing along with Gwinneth, probably do to the liter of ale he had consumed. Turylon and Katherine were riding point in front of the wagon, while Lilly and Largefry drove the wagon. The merry band of happy travelers set off for the realm of Gwindom.

[HappyAdolf]

While singing Adolf and Gwinneth drank even more ale. Largefry's wound was nearly completely healed and he thanked Adolf for binding his wound on the battlefield, and he thanked Lily for caring for his wounds later in the farm and in their camp. "Being a knight is not only having a sweet life, my squire, as you have seen.", Turylon said to Largefry. "It also means being wounded in battle often, and offering your help to helpless and poor people. Always keep that in mind, Largefry. But being a knight and fulfilling a knight's duties like helping the helpless is always a pleasure, that keep in mind, too." Adolf and Gwinneth drank and sung during the whole travel. "And being a knight means great torture sometimes. Sigh.", Turylon said as Adolf and Gwinneth sang loudly. After a while they reached Gwindom. It was a nice little town, with a majestic castle on top of a hill. "Yaknow, thisss plase iz famus for iz ale!", Adolf said to Gwinneth, drunk from the much ale. "Thazzguud! Wewll dring a biddof idd donait in the davern wher we spend ze night!", she answered. "Sigh. They really are drunkards.", said Turylon. But Largefry got an idea: He took a bucket of water and poured it over them. "Hey! Now my armor is wet! I have to dry it and get myself some new clothes!", Gwinneth cried. "Why didn't you do it with ale?", Adolf asked Largefry and everyone laughed. Gwinneth bought herself some new clothes as the others went into the inn to get a room for the night. "It was a long travel. We shall go to bed now.", Turylon said. Then Gwinneth came into Adolf's room. She wore a long green skirt and a beautiful green shirt, and white socks under her brown shoes. "Hello, darling.", she said with a very sweet voice. She sat down on the bed and took her shoes off. "How are you, darling?", she Asked Adolf, as she slowly took off her socks and played around in his beard with her finger. "Well, I feel... great! And you look so sweet...", he answered. "Yes, I am .And you are, too.",she said. "I love you darling! I..." "No more words.", Gwinneth said and put her finger on his mouth. Then she pulled out her other clothes and then kissed him. They were so loud again, that everybody in the inn knew what they were doing. "Not again...", Turylon said annoyed.Suddenly Largefry entered their room, took their clothes and threw them out of the window. Then he threw the bed out of the window. Adolf and Gwinneth understood and went out of the inn and "sleeped" outside, so that there was not so much noise in the inn.

[Largefry07]

Once the two lovers were outside Largefry went back into his room were Lily was waiting. He let Lily sleep on the bed and made a bed on the floor for himself. Later that night Largefry suddenly awoke from a bad dream he had. Lately he wasn't sleeping very well because he thought about the day he had lost everything.

His entire family was burned alive in their sleep, and he would had been to if Sir Turylon hadn't been close to his farmhouse and saved his life but not his family. This is how Largefry and Turylon met. Largefry had always been looking for the poeple who set their house on fire.

But back to the present night, after Largefry awoke from his dream he heard something. It was very quiet and soft. At first he thought that he was only hearing things but he heard a small "crash" and he knew that it was real. He walked out of his room, not thinking to take his sword along with him, and started to follow the noise. It had led him to an empty room. The room was very dark and a little spoky. the moonlight shone though on window at the far end of the room. Largefry, when he saw the room he only thought it was a mouse. Just as he was about to leave the room something caught the corner of his eye. What ever it was, it was far bigger then a mouse or a rat. It was in the darkest corner of the room and as he went to find the creature he made a startaling discovery. The creature was indeed a rat but the rat had moved a chest that had early caught the corner of his eye. He tryed to open the chest but it had an old rested lock on it which he managed to brake. The chest flang open and what he saw in the chest was more gold, silver, some of the finest jewels that he had ever had seen. He ran to his master's room to tell of his discovery.

[Sir Turylon]

Turylon was asleep on the sofa in the room when Largefry knocked lightly on the door. "Sir, are you awake?" There was no response from inside the room. Largefry knocked on the door a bit louder and after a few seconds it opened. "Oh, Lady Katherine, I hope I am not disturbing you." Katherine was standing there with a pale blue silk gown on, a small shaw wrapped around her arms. She yawned and moved the hair from her face. "Why, yes you are, we were trying to get some sleep. But, what is it that you needed young squire?" Largefry pointed at Turylon and Katherine understood. She walked over to Turylon, who was busily fighting the dragon in his dream, and touched him on the shoulder. Turylon just mumbled, "Ah, back ye beast of foul wind. I shall smite thee to wence thee came from!" Katherine giggled slightly and shook his shoulder gently. Turylon spun around and opened his eyes up. There, standing before him was a vision of beauty. A fair maiden with golden brown hair, drenched in the pale moonlight. His eyes widened as a smile appeared on his face. "Are you an angel? Am I still dreaming? Has the dragon killed me and sent me to heaven?" Katherine gave him a puzzled look and kissed him softly. Turylon sighed, "Ah, this must be heaven." Katherine flicked his ear and laughed. "Oh my silly dear, wake up already." Turylon sat up and nearly forgot to put his tunic back on... *oops*... He saw the squire standing in the doorway and walked over to him. "What is...*yawn*... it squire?" Largefry motioned with his hand and the two walked to the room where Largefry had found the small chest of trinkets and valuables. Turylon scratched his head and grunted. "Interesting find, squire. I wonder if the inn keeper knows of anyone that has been robbed the last few days. This could be a stash from those bandits we ran into. Or, it could be unclaimed. Tell me, what brought you to this room?" Largefry explained what had happened, but Turylon found it odd that a rat could make such a loud noise. Especially when they could still hear Adolf the very Happy going at it again. Don't those two ever rest! Turylon told Largefry to go back to sleep, he would put the chest in his room and question the keeper in the morning. Largefry nodded and skipped back off to Lilly and his comfy little pillow on the floor. Turylon went back to his own room, kissed Katherine softly and went back to dreaming about slaying the evil Dragon. Death to thee, oh mighty beast of hell!

[Largefry07]

Once again everyone was fast asleep even the two outside and was for the rest of the night. In the morning Adolf and Gwinneth were up first. The two didn't have a good night sleep and were covered with bug bites. Later that morning Truylon asked the innkeeper about the teasure chest the Largefry found the night. " Well bandits have been hitting this whole town and country side for that past month or so and I guess this is were they have been hiding their stash the whole time," the innkeeper replied. Turylon didn't really believe him because the chest wasn't hidin very well and thought that the innkeeper might have been one of the bandits. This theroy of Turylon's was reforced when the innkeep instisted that he would get all of the teasure.

[HappyAdolf]

"Maybe we could free your town from those bandits?", Adolf said. "We are knights, and it is our duty to help people." "Hmmmm... yeeess, you could do that. I saw the bandits coming from the... umm... east often, yes from the east. I think there is a small cave there... yes, you should look there. I gotta go!", the innkeeper said and disappeared into a dark room where the others could hear him talking to some people, but they didn't understand what he was saying. Turylon raised his eyebrow. "This guy behaves a bit strange... we should beware, this might be a trap." "Yes, he was even to me a bit suspicios. But if it is a trap, we could get the whole gang. But we should expect heavy resistance from the bandits.", Adolf answered. The innkeeper watched them with a brod grin as they went away, and then he got on his horse and rode away.
As they slowly walked through the forest, they watched out for traps on the ground. After a while they reached a cave. "Do not enter it yet!", Turylon said. "I bet they will await us in there!" "Indeed a good hiding-place for those bandits.", Adolf said. "It is far away enough from the town to hide from the militia, and near enough to go quickly to the town." They slowly entered the cave just to discover that it was empty. Gwinneth, who stood guard outside of the cave, saw some shadows between the trees. Maybe they were thieves...
Suddenly a fallgate fell down from the entrance of the cave and trapped them inside. "What...", Gwinneth tried to say, but then a arrow pierced through her ankle. The bandits came nearer. Between them was the innkeeper. "Well, well, well, if that are not our brave knights who wanted to get rid of the bandits?", he laughed. He shook his head to one of the bandits and he took Gwinneth and ripped of her socks. "If you do not give all your weapons to us, we will rip off all her other clothes, too.", the innkeeper said. "And when she's out of clothes, we shall rip off some of her body parts. But if you surrender we will spare her life and put her into the cave you are trapped in. Then you can wait for somebody to rescue you... or you can wait until you die of hunger, hehehe.", he said and laughed evilish. "LEAVE HER ALONE, YOU SWINE!!", Adolf screamed. "And when she's dead, we will shoot you, too. All of you.", the innkeeper replied. "Take their horses and supplies! I will go away... I don't want to watch the poor girl die... HAHAHA!", he said and went away, together with their horses and belongings. Now what should they do? Surrender their weapons and die of hunger there or try to kill them and take the key for the gate and risk Gwinneth's life... they didn't know.
After five minutes the thief ripped off Gwinneth's shirt. "Now, do you want to surrender, or shall I rip off more of her clothes, harhar?", the thief laughed. "We will never surrender!", Adolf replied. The thief ripped off her skirt now. "Alright, then it's time to have some fun for me and her, HEHE!", the thief laughed. "Alright!", Adolf said, "I will give you my weapon... here..." He held the sword through the thick iron staffs (is this the right word? In German it is Gitterstäbe, don't know the English word, sorry) and as the thief reached for it, he hacked off his arm and threw it right into his heart. "NOW!", Adolf screamed. The others understood: They threw their weapons on the other thieves, and most of the thieves fled.
Gwinnwth gave Adolf the key from the thief. "Thank you, my darling!", she said to him gratefully. "For you I'll do just anything.", he answered as he opened the door, and she gave him a kiss. "But you're naked now, darling, and they stole your armor and destroyed your clothes. What shall you wear now?", he said to her as he bound her wound on her ankle with a piece of her clothes. "Ah, I don't mind being naked...", she said to him and raised her eyebrow. Then she put her arms around him and they kissed each other again. "Hell, how can you kiss when we are alone without horses 100 miles away from the city in the deep forest, where bandits are everywhere? And we have to find ourselves some food out here through hunting, so we don't starve to death!", Turylon said. "I don't mind. I like hunting, and deer and boars with mushrooms taste quite good, and we can find them in the forest easily. But now we shall first go to sleep here. I suggest we sleep inside the cave and close the door, so the thieves cannot kill us during sleep.", Adolf said. And so they did. And it was really good for Adolf and Gwinneth, that Gwinneth had no more clothes. She didn't need to pull them out anymore...

o.k. for those guys who still dont know how tournemnets had worked in reallity:
the tournement was there that the knights could show theyre skills with the lance.
the goal was to hit the opnonent but not to hurt him, push him from his horse or even to kill him. the tournemnt lances whre made that way that they break when the knight hit the other properly. of course accidents had happened, and some of them ended dealy, but that was not that often. whn you talking about to guys fighting each other to kill the oponent, thats not a tournement, thatis a duel.
