Towergirls Charts: Gen 4, The Squires of Corona (Patreon)
Content
In a land of adventure, whimsy, and terror there are many stories to be told. Often we focus on the generals, ambassadors, queens, and princesses. But there are other people who make those stories happen. Pages, Squires, Monks, Scribes, Mages, Alchemists and so on. People who live to serve rather than to do. Judging from the tales bards tell and from the stories written by scribes these people live quietly and unassumingly.
This is a half truth, while many do simply drift through life without any apparent drive others engage in great adventures of their own. Kings have met their end at the edge of a squire's blade, apprentice alchemists have made discoveries that eluded their betters, Woodsmen have slain dire beasts with axe and bow, but their stories are forgotten because it is not their place to stand at the forefront of history.
Do more than merely read the assigned texts, look for the inferences, the places humbles people did more than was asked. Look for the soldiers, the wood gatherers, the huntsmen and the potion makers. They're always there, just out of sight, making the world a better place in their own quiet way.
