Night Watch [Elyan]

[lucan]

With news that practically a whole village had been slain by creatures who appeared to freeze their victims to death, Camelot's guard was up. Tonight there would be patrols around in case of attack, and unfortuantly for Lucan, he had volunteered to patrol the town. Yvain had immediatly made it clear that he would not be joining him, choosing to guard the castle that evening - trust his friend to choose a place to patrol where there was practically more shelter. Now Lucan was heading down to the armory to find a few weapons that he could take to defend himself to some extent. If he had to go it alone then he would.

Heading into the armory he began to hunt around for a few weapons, whilst putting some back from that morning's training practice. Would a cross bow kill something that could freeze someone to death? Lucan had no idea, not actually having seen one of these creatures in action and not wanting to.

He ran a hand through his hair, picking up a fallen lance pole and spying a few maces. Mace the creature to death really didn't sound like it would work either. "A sword it will have to be" he rolled his eyes and pulled out his sword form his belt to study it. It was sure sharp enough, but wouldn't really go up against a Dorcha? had Gauis called it? All Luc knew was the extent of the damage that had already been done.

Although he'd never admit it to anyone, Elyan was terrified and that was the simple truth of the matter. The entire kingdom was in panic after the village he'd patrolled had been found to be practically a ghost town. All the villagers had been found dead, frozen in fact. He'd never seen anything like it and he hated the pain and fear it was burying into everyone's hearts. That's why he decided to volunteer to go on the patrol around the town. Despite the possibility they could encounter one of the creatures, he wasn't going to sit back and watch the kingdom fall.

Apparently nothing could kill these creatures; fire only cast them away for a short while. But he'd be damned if he didn't face them armed with a weapon. If he had to confront one of these...dorocha then he'd do it with a sword in his hand. Elyan went down the familiar route to the armoury. He almost smiled thinking about all the times he would sneak in and admire the weapons. It felt like lifetimes ago. He heard someone inside and peered in through the door to see one of the knights he was going to be patrolling with eyeing up a sword in his hand. He silently entered and picked up a sword from one of the racks. Elyan held out the hilt to the other knight, Sir Lucan, he thought his name was? Who'd only just caught sight of him. "I think this sword might be better," he smiled. "Although, I'm probably a little biased." The sword was his own handiwork, but that at least meant he knew it was made with high quality in mind. "Why don't you try it out?"
