The Kingdom of Daventry; Monday [05/06] - Day ONE of the Tournament of Knights!

[pun_king]

It was a beautiful, gorgeous day in Daventry. Birds were chirping, the sun was shining, there was a touch of a breeze blowing through the thick canopy of trees that spread over the lush land, while adorable critters frollicked and played. It was just the sort of day to usher in the beginning of a great and exciting Tournament of Knights! The Daventry Inn was ready to open its doors to visitors from far and wide, competitors and spectators alike! Come one, come all, for the time had come, for the Tournament to begin.

Settled among majestic mountains and thick, mysterious woods, the Kingdom of Daventry called for the bold, the brave, and the wise, under the watchful eye of its impressive castle. The bridges over its many roaring rivers might be out, making journeying too far beyond the village and the castle grounds a bit difficult, but the call of adventure was in the air, and, in a few short days, there would be a new knight amongst their ranks. Who would find themselves with this new prestigious title? Only time would tell!

[[ it's time, it's time! Come one, come all (especially if you've gotten an invitation, but even then, the portal is very open! Day one of the tournament! NFB for distance, OCD is up! Today is mostly a lot of "interact with the NPCs and each other" day, with the exception of when I get the chance to post plot-related things later in the day. Huzzah! ]]

"Graham's pretty quick, at least," Libby said hopefully. "And I can't see him fighting in a way that isn't anything but knightly. I was asking him a little more about it; apparently, the last day is a random draw for who competes against who in the final tests: Wits, Speed, and Strength." She frowned a little, hating to say it, but it was true. "I think we know where his weak spot's going to be in those..."

Maybe he'd get paired up with the very short knight hopeful for that one? He looked like he could be scrappy, but Graham was easily taller than him by half!

Which gave him reach, at least!

"How do you figure out if a knight is clever, that's another question," Arden said. "Strong and fast are pretty easy, but witty..."

She paused. "If it's a pun battle, hand to the goddess..."
