Sunlight shines upon a child standing in a large yard just behind the celestial castle which shines brightly with gold . there stands the statue of a knight wearing an armor made of diamonds wielding a so called legendary sword which is rumored to be forged by the combined effort of the Elf king and the king of the Dwarves combined making the strongest sword wielding the power of the moon magic of the elves.
There stood a boy in awe of the legendary statue. As he is approached by his servant who has been looking for him all day.
"Young master, there you are. I've been searching for you all day you know." Said Lawrentius as he bows to the young boy
"Ah, Lawrentius is it time for the event yet?" Asked the young prince
"Not quite my lord, we are still an hour away from the event sir" answered the servant
"I see. Then, can you tell me the story of the knight again please?" Asks the prince
"Very well my lord, although i'm quite curious as to why you're always entertained by the story and not get bored with it as i have told it a lot of times" said Lawrentius as he raises his head
"It's just so entertaining to hear" replied the prince
"Very well, i shall start" sitting down together with the pince under a tree near the statue
"It all started 15 years ago before the celestial castle is build and the alliance between the elves, dwarves and human are formed"
He continued "at the time war raged between the 3 race fighting over power,lands and resources with each race trying to prove which of them is best. With the elves using magic and dwarves using machines of sorts. Although in a perspective humans does not have anything to show we have one thing that rivals the dwarves machine and the elves magic."
"And that is?" Asked the prince
"It is courage of course. Human's courage is the fuel for our fight against the other race as we wage war against both of them" answered the servant
"As the war is fought all three sides lost many of their people due to the war. Despite this all three sides keep waging war against each other. That is until another race step in. The orcs as you know it wanted destruction over our realm. Despite this as well all three tribes keep attacking each other. Until the human king at the time, king Azeroth decided to end the war realizing that this will only bring more casualties and that we must unite in order to fight the orc's race. But no, He is not the man whose statue stands before us."
"King Azeroth managed to only create a treaty of peace between the dwarves, elves, and humans. Although there is still a lot of people of each tribe wanting vengeance over one another and so the treaty does not hold long. That is until a sentry of dwarves are under attack by the orcs and are overrun."
"On that day none of the leaders of the human race helped the dwarves stationed in the sentry. Until a captain of an elite force stepped up defying orders from his general and charge against the orcs attacking the sentry and freed the dwarves risking his life for it."
"The captain is my father right?" Asked the prince
"Yes, the captain of the elite force that charged the orc army to save the prisoners. Yes, he is your father." Answered the servant proudly
