The Road of the Paladin - Chapter 7 (fragment)

...The paladin stood in the middle of the road, looking firmly to the ground. He was so tired, sad, heartbroken. There was no quitting there like in the cabin where he awoke this morning. There was only a path back and another front. To the sides, nothing else then burned bushes, and the smell of putrid that came from the dead. -what now? -He asked himself-is this the path I should take? What if I go back? Where would I direct my steps? Why should I keep walking now?After all this years, the memory of my existence is probably erased from those I swore to protect. How would I become a paladin now, if there is no one to name me protector of the light? What has light brought me anyway? Deaths, confussion, despair. -a tear of frustration started to run by his chick. And then he lifted his head high and dried out the tear from his eyes. Alhor fix his eyes on the beautiful mountains decorating the land. Warm feelings of comfort fill his spirit. It was that tiny moment, one gaze, to what the gods had made for the world that put him together, and finally explained himself the purpose of walking the road. It was not the direction of his steps, but his actions when walking thru it. To illuminate the world, the true significance of what his elder master taught him when he referred to The Light. To illuminate those who where stuck in their darkest moments. That is the true road of a Paladin.

The Path

Wandering is walking the roads to discover and explore.

There is no favorite dream to follow, there´s just a dream

of finding a path at last,

to follow, to go somewhere,

the difference between anywhere and somewhere.

Not all who wander are lost...there are just trying to find a path.
