1. The Guard

A Knight's Tale

A story by Illogical

---

Alonzo paced around the corridor he was assigned to guard. He had recently been employed as a guard in Baron Edoardo's castle, and he was bored. He wasn't hoping to be attacked or anything, but he was still bored. He sighed.

"Become a guard they said! It will be filled with action and adventure they said!" throwing his arms into the air for emphasis, to no one in particular. He thought about the strange things that had happened around the castle. The shady characters, the man with the heavily armored guards carrying a foul-smelling bag. Alonzo had recently begun to think that the Baron was not all he seemed. "I wish something would HAPPEN around he-RRRCK!"

And everything went black.
