Britain was silent, it was the dead of the night. The Baron's swordsmen kept looking for the hunter who eluded them in the tavern, but stopped to catch thier breath in front of the First Bank of Britannia. Suddenly a loud screeching cut the silence, and the knights looked around in fear.
"What be 'tis?"
"The knave summoned his demonic allies to end us all!"
"Hold thyself, thou are knights, not common wenches! At arms and slay whatever foul beast 'tis be!"
As the screeching metallic sound got louder, a splendor they never seen before has started appearing before thier eyes. A shape that resembled a blue outhouse has started manifesting just in front of the building, slowly becoming from semi invisible to completely solid. As the outhouse completely materialized, the sound stopped just as it started.
The swordsmen surrounded the blue box, hiding behind thier shields, holding out swords to meet whatever creature might emerge from it.
"Aaaaaaaaah it feels so sweet, never thought the re-processed air of the Cerberus Station would be so refreshing, oh wait a minute..."
The door of the blue box snapped open, and a red-headed young man wearing a blue overcoat and a colourful long scarf stepped out, looking at the knights with disbelief as his eyes ran around the scenery.
"Hello! I'm guessing you have no clue where is this place on a galactic scale, and why it isn't Cerberus Station" He grinned, pushing away the sword of the knight captain and stepping away from the box
"Let's see, medieval architecture, knights in shining armor" his eyes suddenly caught the young hunter, who has been watching the whole scene with growing disbelief, especially since the wierd man emerged from the box "Oh, and Jerek Stormgard, my old friend " He took a deep breath, seemingly totally oblivious of the knights now turning away from the box, unable to force the doors open after he closed them "Aaaaaah! Sosaria, the shining green world of the Garriot constellation! That's the reason for the cold welcome then, eh?" he turned towards the knights, sporting an oriental bow "Hello there, I'm... well, in this part of the universe I'm known as Kite! Kite Himuro! Hail and well met! Who thou might be, fair knights?"
The captain of the knights, now lowering both his shield and sword in disbelief, as the stranger changed accent and manner of speech.
"I be captain Arrass, and i be chasing a foul knave with me men when thine box appeared before our very eyes. You mayhaps be a wizard to command such power?"
"My craft mayhap be different from the magick you knoweth, but aye. It is magickal indeed" Kite grinned "Now if you excuse me, I'll be on me way. Mayhaps we meet again soon." he waved, and started walking down the street towards the tailor shop. The captain waited until his figure disappeared into the darkness of the night, then turned to his men
"I be damned if I know what we just seen, but this man, weird as he is, had no evil intentions. Yet I can't shake the feeling that he mayhaps not be a man at all..."
"What be 'tis?"
"The knave summoned his demonic allies to end us all!"
"Hold thyself, thou are knights, not common wenches! At arms and slay whatever foul beast 'tis be!"
