Description
The White Knight struggled to look up. "In... credible. Despite your youth, you are powerful."

"Your words are greatly appreciated, my noble elder."

The White Knight sighed. "Noble elder. I believed my years would surpass thy youth, but it seems that hubris was my downfall. How ironic. Not even a mere month ago, I felt a surge of power. As if I was back in my prime. In my youth. I believed to be invincible. Maybe that mindset is why this old fool decided to accept thy duel."

"Be that as it may, you were a worthy opponent. Never did I believe one could be so powerful. I thank you for this honorable bout. I shall remember this victory to the end of my days."

"You speak as if your journey is at an end."

"I have defeated you, lord. You were my goal."

"I alone?"

"What are you implying, good sir?"

"My boy, I am not the only knight created by the grace of the gods."

"What?"

"There are nine other knights besides this old man you've bested. Do you wish to prove thy strength?"

"Yes."

"Then remember these nine names: the Knightshade, the Fallen Knight, the Elmwood Knight, the Dragon Knight, the Silent Knight, Raven Knight, Winter Knight, the Android Knight, and finally, the Rose Knight."

"If I were to best all of these noble warriors, I would be the mightiest of them all?"

"You would." The White Knight coughed. "Aah, so this is what an honorable death feels like. It's quite... fulfilling."

"The Rose Knight. You mentioned him last. Is he the mightiest of all?"

". . . Indeed. If not... the most tragic."

"What?"

"You will learn. Go. . . Follow your path. He who stands tall in the end is... righteous. . . May victory. . . smile... upon thee." The White Knight let out his death sigh.

The Green Knight knelt down and placed his hand on the White Knight, giving a silent prayer for the warrior. He then saw the sword the knight carried, buried the knight, and used the sword as a grave marker for the noble warrior.

Lifting his axe, a new resolve in burning in his soul, he set out to continue his quest, wondering what mighty warriors he may encounter in this journey.
