"Siblings"-In-Arms, Pt. 1
Flashback to the year 170, the first year of the Divine Age.
Two gods were locked in a power struggle for supremacy in a little town called Lumbridge. The forces of Saradomin and Zamorak clashed sword against sword, spell against spell, and arrow against arrow for the sake of their god.
One of the combatants during that time was Sir Rowanius, a Temple Knight clad in gold-trimmed white armour back then. Among the ranks of the Saradominist army, he fought with zeal and distinction, wielding his longsword and shield while taking down numerous Zamorakian soldiers. However, things turned worse for him when a butcher demon from the Zamorakian side was summoned. The armoured fellborn rampaged through the Saradominist soldiers, slaughtering them in its path. Seeing that the demon was about to maim and kill a downed victim, a lady adventurer-mercenary described to have short, dark red hair, immediately, he rushed and shielded her. He may have saved her from the attack, giving her time to escape, but the force he took was too great that it injured him and broke his armour, putting him at a disadvantage.
It would have been death for the Temple Knight, had it not for a cadre of priest-soldiers of Saradomin wearing special armaments who warded the demon off and rescued the injured knight. For a week, he was nursed by the priests. During that time, the red-haired lady he saved, revealed to be Sarah Leaflansdotter, sat beside him and gave her thanks for his heroic act.
"Thanks for saving my life back there, kind Sir. I'd like to know who you are."
"Call me Rowan. And you?"
"Sarah Leaflansdotter. It's a pleasure to meet you, Knight."
From the time the war ended, Brother Rowan would remember his selfless deed of saving her from certain death. He wished that he would meet her again.
Then, a letter arrived via owl mail.
