Sir Ewen wrote:Would it have been possible for the knight to position himself to die as we found him without assistance? Could he, mortally wounded, have composed himself in a manner appropriate to his hopes of pleasing the Lady of Paladins, just before shuffling off this mortal coil? Or did we find someone obviously positioned thus by some other?
Sir Ewen wrote:The stag is the charge on the arms of Dariune, BTW, which may be why we have associated it with Kaldor. But that's an entire stag, not just the head, so the arms here are completely different.
Sir Ewen wrote:Hard to think of a Harnic kingdom where a stag's head would raise eyebrows.
Imarë wrote:Matt did go out of his way to point out that the armor of the knight was undamaged. Unless it was a head shot (eater of eyes and all that). I did check to see if there was any damage to the bone around the eyes but there was none to be seen.
Imarë wrote:I think we do need to finish what we started with the mine, to answer questions and to render it useful to whatever purpose that Sir Ewen might desire. A nest of vlasta roaming about could really ruin someone's evening if they were called to the toilet in the middle of the night.
Sir Ewen wrote:The pristine state of the armor also needs to be pursued. An appraisal, as you suggest, might provide a clue to the identity of the knight, but might also reveal whether the armor exceeds in quality that possessed by Sirs Baris and Ewen. Unblemished armor suggests more than just a head-shot, no? Either the armor was newly acquired (sadly ironic given the knight's fate), or is perhaps strangely preserved due to unusually high-quality materials or a dweomer, I should think.
