The paladin let out a sigh and shook his head

“How unfortunate, that we must put our hopes into someone such as that” he thought to himself. “And even so, I doubt one man, ex hero or not, will make a difference.”

But then, a thought came to him, and he turned his attention back to the stone.

“But luckily, I know of those who could.”

He then took the stone and rubbed a wing shaped pattern onto its surface, causing it to once more light up and form a screen; before long, a man in his mid thirties with short brown hair came into view.

“Brother Mathias” Johnathon bowed with a smile.

“Brother Johnathon!” Mathias replied with a warm smile and a humble bow in turn. “It is good to see you my friend! Though I was not expecting contact from you in this manner. Have you arrived at your destination?”

“I have” Johnathon replied, his expression now turning grim. “But the situation is far more dire than any of us anticipated; which is why I must ask for Grand Crusader Thrane.”

The other paladin frowned and shook his head.

“Apologies, Johnathon, but the Grand Crusader is currently in Alta discussing matters of war with Prince Elias Torryn. Why? What’s happened?”

“The long predicted Demon Realm invasion has come. Tens of thousands of monsters have crossed the northern border, and are now threatening the entire region; and the forces here are woefully ill prepared.”

“Heavens preserve us….”

“Worse still, I believe that a Lilim might be leading the demon army, which is why I must request the aid of the chapter in my crusade.”

Mathias nodded in understanding.

“I will send for the Grand Crusader immediately, though it will be some time to reach him. And should he approve of a crusade, it will take far more time to reach you.”

“I understand” Johnathon said, nodding in understanding.

Mathias nodded in turn.

“Hold fast, brother Johnathon, and may the Lord Mother guard you!”

“And you, brother Mathias.”

And with that, the two paladins broke communication. Now feeling more confident, Johnathon left with a smile, as he went to seek out Elanor.
