Ostentum (Magic Knight Errant Quest)

But it would be so much more tale-worthy with a few fireballs thrown around.

That's a very pretty lad there

Plot twist: You are the escort. You just didn't know this until right now. :V

Hmph. What an edgy set of abilities.

It's okay, though. We'll pump power into the Exploding Fist until it starts exploding with the force of a fireball! That'll show them!

"Ancillas," you start simply.

"Hm?"

"I'm wondering. You're of high birth, correct?" You peer curiously at him as you open up your questioning.

"It...would not be wrong to say that." He nods slowly.

"Then surely you shouldn't wandering this far out into nowhere, completely alone. Shouldn't you have protection? Has something happened?"

"Ah..." Ancillas mutters, slight concern evident, "Yes, I am a bit worried about that myself..."

Your brow furrows at that. "What do you mean?"

"See, my memories are a bit...missing?" He drawls uncomfortably, "I remember I was at home, walking somewhere, then there's a large blank. I only remember as far back as suddenly being alone in the forest..."

...

"That's...worrying." You agree that he should definitely be worried about that, as it definitely does not sound normal. "Why would that have happened?"

"I have dealt with memory loss before, as a result of, well...magic overuse. It's the only explanation I can imagine, I think."

"Ah," you declare calmly, "You study magic?" He nods.

Well, you are aware that magic overuse can have effects like that, including many, many other terrible things. Memory loss may be one of the least dangerous of them. But in this rare situation, the missing memories are very problematic.

"Why would you have overused magic?" You wager asking, seeing if he has any thoughts on that.

"I don't know. In the past it was because I got carried away practicing, but...from what I do remember, before the gap in my recollection, I didn't have any plans to practice, or...anything of the sort. I think I was going to meet someone..."

He gulps quietly. "All I can remember aside from that is...when I 'came to', I had this sure feeling that I whatever I was doing, it was very urgent."

"Urgent?"

"Like...I was doing something very important, and that I was leaving the place for an urgent reason."

A conundrum if you've ever heard one. So for one reason or another, a young noble is lost, away from home and without memory of how this all happened, or why. It's certainly a good thing you found him when you did.

There are a scarce few reasons you can imagine this would have happened, but all in all, the more important thing is figuring out what you'll do about it now. He rides with you into the town of Fauge, and then...what? You part ways?

Speaking of the town of Fauge, you can see its walls in the distance. You're nearing your arrival, at last. And now, with regards to your passenger, you still haven't decided what to do when you get there.

[] Drop Ancillas off and wish him the best.

[] Find a place to rest with Ancillas, he does look exhausted. Maybe you could converse some more, as well.
-[] Write in things to ask/say

[] Find someone who could help the boy, surely there is some authority that can assist.

We're a Knight Errant so we gotta be gallant if we're going to claim our Knightly Virtues.

[X] Find a place to rest with Ancillas, he does look exhausted. Maybe you could converse some more, as well.
-[X] Offer our help. Our Knightly Virtues means we help those in need to our utmost, but we won't force ourself on him if he does not seek our assistance.
--[X] If he agrees, start asking for details of his past. What did his home look like? How about the people? Does he remember his family's heraldy or motto? Ask him for anything that would give you an idea of where he's from.
---[X] Once done, ask him if he needs refreshments and such. We'll see if we can do something about them while we go to the authorities for help.

We can't abandon our damsel in distress, of course.
