The greenskin tilted his head to a side, interested on what the Ostiary had to say. Vigi had always been ready to help him and almost all of the knowledge Stern had derived from the teachings of the old man. He didn't know why Vigi cared for him in such a manner, yet his heart told him that he could trust him.

"Baeras... Wasn't it the Rune Carver?"

Vigi nodded, a proud smile forming on his lips as his student displayed impressive memory. "Indeed, Stern! I see you have kept reading the tomes I gave you."

Stern nodded.

"You see, Stern... Baeras was known as a giant among men, a valiant Thorn feared and respected by friends and foes... Tragically fallen on holy duty and ascended to the heavens. However, something of him remains here in Marin, a thing most powerful remains untouched beneath Mount SharpTooth... You appear to be a fitting heir to such power and the Order would be very happy to see a young knight who instead of resting, begins a quest to find a lost artifact..."

Stern couldn't understand the tone of the Ostiary, being used to a more direct approach free of subtle meanings or schemes.

"Brother Ostiary Vigi, you confuse me... But if I am the only one able to help the Order... I will depart for mount SharpTooth in two days."

Vigi nodded, bowing slightly. Stern did the same before heading to his room. 

It appeared that a new challenge awaited the paladin...

Tanyth Carven,
Village of Gorangrad

Tanyth sighed and looked toward the departing greenskin, "He's got his duties. We have ours." She smiled and kissed Mirian's forehead, "We will see him again. Come on, we've a long way to go." With that she began to lead her child away down the road to Taemar... The road of violence and revenge. But she would hide it all from Mirian, keep it secret and silent while she did her best to raise her to be a good and kind woman. 

Maybe this was a good thing, maybe she'd find lasting happiness in motherhood. She couldn't say, but she would try all the same.

Mirian Trunth, Village of Gorangrad

Mirian nodded. She didn't quite understand what was happening, but she was glad Tanyth wasn't ditching her. She held the hand that belonged to who she considered her new mother, and travelled along with her. She didn't know what this new life would entail, but she figured it would be alright as long as she had Tanyth.
