As I left the castle, sad I couldn't face the great king... suddenly I saw it!! A UNICORN!!
Of course, it walked right past me... but I'm pretty used to that...

Still!! It was obviously a sign! That I should go out, further into the world to save others on my noble quest.
So I went and bought a ticket to leave Faydwer and continue on my journey....to Antonica!!! The land of men and monsters!

We sailed for days....and on the journey were others leaving for various reasons. Some sought riches, others wanted to try the muffins of the humans, and some wanted adventure....
But me? I was gonna be a hero!!!!

Eventually we landed in Freeport, and I continued on....past the commons....the forest of the Kithicor....and soon found myself in the city of Highpass Hold.
Of course, I tell everyone I meet how I'm going to be a hero....as a great hero does!
But one high elf I told seemed especially interested! He said he believed me, and even knew A PRINCESS! And not even a vampire one!
Not just that, she was nearby, in the keep!!! And I should go and meet her!!!!!
So I climbed up the many stairs to a secret back room where he said she would meet me...and waited....

Eventually she showed up and didn't seem too impressed by my amazing stair climbing abilities....but she thanked me for opening the door for her....
Oh well, I guess it was somethin... so I returned to the high elf and he had another task for me, to give her an amulet he had of hers.
Pretty strange though, since she was standing right next to him..... I dunno, it was getting a little weird for me....but that's how royalty is I guess.
So I handed her the amulet and she seemed extra thankful! Even giving me a note for a royal weapon from her personal royal armory!!!!!
With such a weapon, I would surely be well on my way to being a true noble gnome! Everyone would see it on my belt and finally pay attention!
So I left the Keep and hurried on my way! I had to get back to her elvish city to get that fancy weapon!!

But....something seemed strange on my return... I didn't remember the commonlands being so open...and plainsy....
I stayed at inns along the way though, and eventually even found some barbarian fishermens. They told me about their great barbarian city, and many stories of their brave barbarian deeds.
I wasn't too sure if that counted as noble or not...but seemed pretty good. I would have to visit sometime to learn about their ways.
Eventually I came upon another human city, the city of Qeynos.... I guess I'd gone the wrong way....

So I went to the nearest travel agency and figured out how to get back home...I'd take the boat to the city of Erudin....then that would take me back to the butcherblock mountains!

Eventually I had done it, I made it home....and ventured to the great high elf city of Felwithe! To collect my noble weapon for noble amulet handing deeds!

I made it through the city to find the armorer the princess had told me to see....but when I got there and handed him the note....he glanced at it, and set it down to return to what he was doing.
I waited around for a while... but I guess he'd forgotten about me.
Eventually I got tired of waitin, and grabbed one of the daggers from his table and left....the princess said I could have one, so I gots one!

Finally with such a fine dagger of finery, everyone would see what a hero I was!! And I could save more people!
But first... I needed to practice with it....
