[It was late in the afternoon and seeing as Flynn hadn't emerged from his room all day, Raven decided to invite himself inside. He wasn't expecting it to be completely bare. It took him by surprise for a moment. Flynn had been in Luceti for as long as he could recall, to suddenly disappear like this after all this time, it could be said that he felt genuinely sad by his absence.]

Hey, listen up for a minute would ya? [He really didn't want to do this, but someone had to and he knew once Yuri found out then he was likely to need some time to himself.]

Turns out Flynn Scifo's been sent home, all his stuff is gone. [Raven paused for a moment, so many from his world had been sent home these past few months, it was becoming hard not to feel discouraged by it all.] That's about it. Sorry ta anyone who knew him.

Slayin' dragons is not quite what Knights do...

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

... it isn't? I mean, I didn't know too much about the knights back in my world, but that's what they do in books...

[The knights in his world kind of sucked.]

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Knight are more complicated than they appear in books. Ya got the politics, the ethics, I mean, they live fer the people but there's also corruption and bias. They're meant ta good, Flynn does, but not every knight is reliable.

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah, I know all about the corruption...

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Oh? Enlighten me, I could do with hearin' a story. [And keeping the topic off himself.]

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Well... even though they weren't actually working for the group they said they were, a bunch of knights attacked my town because they wanted something a friend of mine had with her. They threatened to kill people and destroy the entire town if she didn't turn herself in.

[crisisrain]

Ya know, one of these days someone is gonna tell me a story about noble knights who do justice and save princesses. I'm sick of hearin' about all the corruption. Why can't they just be like the knights ya hear in fairytales? I guess that'd be wishful thinkin', huh?

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

I don't know. I really wanted to believe that knights were like what I read about in books, but... I'm sure there are some out there like that, right? We just haven't met them yet. Um, aside from Flynn, I mean.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Flynn is your token lawful Knight. He's just not all that bright when it boils down to it, but his heart in the right place. As long as there are people like him out there? Then I think we'll be ok.
