Leon’s perspective:

I was out in the yard practicing again. I just couldn’t get the shield spell right. It kept blowing up to the size of the kingdom before popping. Suddenly the king summoned me. When I finally got to the main room I saw he was smiling a bit less than normal. “Welcome Leon.” I bowed and said “Thank you your majesty.” and then he got right to telling me what I’d been summoned for. I was being sent into the forest to fight demons. These demons kept stealing our crops and taking people to feed off of their Lust. I wanted to protest and say there’s no way I can go and fight those things but the king told me I would be given a horse, food that could last for a year, and a large bag of gold. Then he had the Guards take me outside and help me onto my horse. This was going to be a long journey.
