Aren Labrynthos

Aren stands at the side of the emperor as the emperor proudly announces that as per his request, Aren will become your personal knight. He is as stoic as ever to the news and whispers from the crowd are hidden by the cheers of the nobility. Why would such a great paladin refuse to become the next candidate for emperor? “thank you, sun of the empire. I will protect your descendant with my life” Aren bows and kisses your hand, giving an oath to protect you right in front of your father
