<i> Cato is travelling from Ibyb to Sandalak city when he hears a man 
riding behind him.
Its a lone rider with too dark clothes and a black horse. As Cato lost 
all his men in the assault of Ikalak he has to be cautious and so he 
puts his arm on

his sword and prepares for defending himself. He is ready for the worse 
when the rider slows down. The rider looks tired but still a bit arrogant.
The rider stands still in front of Cato and asks:</i>

Traveller do you know where I could find Sir Cato de La Fere?

<i>Cato lifts his eyebrow and replies.</i>

Before I give you any answer I want you to introduce yourself and tell 
me what do you want from such Sir?

<i>The dark man starts to take out of his sword to teach that peasant 
some manners when he sees the de La Fere family emblem on the sword of 
the man.</i>

You peasant have the sword of de La Fere family! What you have done with 
ir Cato???

<i>The dark man starts to attack when Cato removed his cloak and smiled</i>

Renard is that you? Yes you really are Renard.

<i>Cato starts to laugh while he sees the dark man go red in face.</i>

Come here old friend how is the family doing and what news you bring to me?

<i>Renard hugs Cato and gives him a letter</i>

Sir Cato it is truly good to see you but I have to leave now without any 
news. All you need is in that letter. All I can say that all members are 
alive and

the whole family greets you. Your mother and father are still doing 
fine! They miss you... But you have some duties. Farewell my friend. 
Restore the family

honour and stay alive please! Farewell...

<i> Renard mounts fast on the horse after giving Cato a letter. He rides 
as fast as possible back to the dock of Ikalak city. Noone sees that he 
was weeping

all the way.

Cato being with mixed feelings sat on a rock nearby and started reading 
the letter.

Sir Cato de La Fere Emissary of the de La Fere family,

Greetings Cato,

There has been long time since we had heard from you. We even didnt know 
your location but if you are reading this letter it seems that we have 
reached you..
It seems that you dont have luck with finding the lost kingdom which our 
dear father ruled. I have some new information for you my dear brother. 
Its name was

Virovene...

Now I would like to talk about more serious matters. Our brother Louis 
ordered a move to neighbouring lands on defensive settings while he was 
marhsal. That

got the King mad at him and in an hour the King declared that Louis is 
not a noble, that he is a peasant. Also he removed him from his lordship 
position and

and from the position of marshal of an army. You cant believe how mad I 
am now... If he would have done something personal to Louis I wouldnt be 
mad as it is

the business of Louis.
But he got the nerve to call Louis a peasant which makes the mighty de 
La Fere family a family of peasants! I held a trial about it in the 
family mansion and

the overall decision was that the King who insulted the family must be 
killed in a death duel against the emissary of the family... sadly this 
is you...

So the orders from the family is that you as emissary have to kill 
Doombringer Deathkiller in a duel till death. If you fail then you will 
die and the next

emissary will get the orders.

I know it is harsh towards you. But I know that you as a true noble will 
understand the meaning of this!

I hope to hear from you my dear brother!

Forever Yours,
Raoul de La Fere
High Marshal of Minas Ithil
Count of Cantervern
Marshal of EF-the Swords of Minas Ithil


Cato read the letter 3 times as it was sweet to hear from his family. 
But still he was impressed and it took him time until it all got to him.
It was just so not possible that Louis was told to be no noble... Man 
who was a true noble. Even more noble then Cato thought of himself. 
though Louis was

always a bit diplomatic...

Once Cato digested it all through he stood up took his sword and yelled</i>

Doombringer Deathkiller you shall die if you are man enough to face my 
sword!!!

<i>Cato started running towards Sandalak city to arrive faster and cash 
his bonds to prepare for departure... </i>
