The Knights of White Moon
					Dragon Knight
     Lethan was a mere peasant on the plains of Daro on the planet Renkus. Renkus is an Earth like 

planet much like our own with 3 continents Everyone thought that Lethan was just a plain old boy 

who would grow up to be a peasant, but he had other plans. Lethan wanted to join the Knights of 

White Moon, the proudest and noblest order left on Renkus since the war against the gods of 

Death, War and Strife. because in the war the greatest order which was the Dragon Knights was 

destoryed .These knights rode upon great black dragons with a red stripe down their backs, since 

the demise of the knights none of these dragons have been seen but the green and red dragons are 

still around terrorizing towns. The Leader of the Dragon Knights knights had a flaming red sword 

that possessed great power but that to has vanished since the great war but now back to Lethan. 

Lethan had just turned 18 when he set out for the castle of White Moon for you had to be 18 to 

join the order and now begins our story.

     Lethan had just bid farewell to his friends and family and set out on the great road towards 

White Moon. The roads to White Moon never had any bandits on it because they were afraid of 

the knights. After a week of hard travel through Kering Woods Lethan had finally reached the 

gates of the pearly white castle that he had been seeing for days off in the distance. Castle White 

Moon had tall Ivory spires and a great keep in the middle where  King Dawen sat, the leader of 

the knights. 

     The guard at the gate asked,” Peasant, what is your business at castle White Moon?”

     Lethan replied,” I have come to join the knighthood.”

     The guard laughed,” You peasant, want to join the knighthood.”

     Lethan asked,” What’s so funny about that?”

      The guard replied,” Nothing except a peasant has never joined the knighthood before” 

     The guard opened the gates and let Lethan enter. Lethan looked around in awe of the great 

white castle. He looked at the tall Ivory spires and the pearly white walls but most of all he stared 

at the great keep. Lethan opened the doors to the keep and steped inside. He walked down the 

main entrance hallway which was adorned with great paintings of kings, heroes and wars. He 

continued on to the king’s throne room he opened the door to the room and went inside. Inside 

the room was golden and the 15 senior knights of white moon sat in their seats in the throne room 

just behind the king’s throne.

     Dawen asked,” What has brought you to us young peasant.”

     Lethan replied,” I have come to join the knighthood.”

     Dawen inquired,” And what is your young sir?”

     Lethan answered,” It is Lethan your Majesty.”

    Dawen said,” Well Lethan you wish to join us first you must complete a task that none have 

completed before.”

     Lethan wondered,” What is that your Majesty?”

     A Knight answered,” You must find the Red sword of the Dragon Knights.”

     Lethan asked,” Your Majesty why must I do this?”

     He replied,” Because you have no noble blood in you.”

     Lethan said,” Yes your Majesty.” With those 2 words Lethan walks out of the throne room 

and into the courtyard and out of the castle. 

    Lethan muttered to himself,” How am I supposed to find this accursed sword.” 

     Suddenly an old man in tattered rags appeared and asked,” And what is this accursed sword 

you seek boy?”

     Lethan said,” It doesn’t matter you and no one else can.”

    The old man said,” Perhaps I can for if it is the Flaming sword of the Dragon knights that you 

seek I know where it is.”

    Lethan asked,” Where is it then Man?”

    He answered,” It is hidden in a cave in the side of Mt. Handar which is through the Wangor Forest.”

    Lethan said,” Thank you man.” He was about to rush off in the direction of Wangor when the 

man stoped him and gave him a silver sword with a gold hilt

    The man said,” You’ll need it?” then he leapt into the bushes and disappeared.

    Lethan yelled out,” But I’ve never used a sword!”

     The old man’s voice called to Lethan,” It will help you.” Lethan looked around and then 

left.

    Lethan decided that it would be best for him to travel to Hofmor so that he could restock his 

supplies before going to Wangor. As Lethan approached Hofmor he saw a tiny little town with 

only a hundred or so wooden houses, it’s much like every other town in that area he observed. He 

entered Hofmor and went to the market to buy food. Lethan had only a little bit of money so he 

could only afford a enough food for a week which would be just enough so that he could reach 

the cave. That’s when Lethan noticed that his beautiful sword had caught the eye of many people 

in the market. He decided to go to the inn Wyvern’s Nest for the night before he got himself into 

trouble. The inn is not much to look at he noticed. But it’s the cheapest place in town he 

remembered 
 
    He entered the inn and the innkeeper said,” Rooms are 5 gold a night.”

Lethan gave the innkeeper his last 5 gold pieces. Then the innkeeper noticed Lethan’s sword he 

    inquired,” Would you be interested in selling it?”

   Lethan said,” No I wouldn’t be.” He marched off into with an angry look the tavern part of the 

inn. He grabbed a seat at an empty table and sat down. Off to the right in the rundown tavern 

there was a group of 3 soldiers sitting down. Then they walked over to Lethan. The first soldier 

     said,” Nice sword their would you like to give it to me.”

     Lethan replied,” Not on your life buddy.”

    The second one said,” Well then we’ll have to hurt you.” He kicks Lethan’s chair out from 

under him just as he stood up. The 3 soldiers drew their swords and Lethan drew his. The 3 of 

them rushed him and Lethan somehow parried each blow with ease. Then he heard a strange 

voice in his ear, “Block, attack, duck.” The voice was telling him how to fight and in a flurry of 

instances the 3 soldiers lay dead on the ground killed by Lethan. He walks buy them grabs their 

purses and goes to his room.

     The next morning Lethan departed Hofmor and headed towards  Wangor. After a day of 

walking he reached the edge of the grand evergreen forest and decided to camp there. Late into 

the night Lethan awoke in a start, he heard voices talking he drew his sword and ventured 

towards the noise. He crept up and saw 5 men holding a Black dragon in the middle of a clearing 

with ropes then, another came up and stuck the ropes into the ground with stakes. 

    The first man said,” This dragon will bring us a high price on the market.”

    The second guy said,” Yes it will, i want to br rich.” 

Then they set up camp. Lethan decided to wait in the shadows  until the men went to sleep. He 

snuck through the camp and went up to the sleeping dragon. He taped it on the nose and it awoke 

in a start. 
    
    It asked,” Who are you?”

     Lethan said,” No time for that now.” And he cut the ropes that kept the dragon tied down. 

Just  then one of the 6 men awoke and saw what was happening he woke up the others and then 

they got their weapons and charged at Lethan and the Dragon. The Dragon saw them coming 

opened it’s mouth a shot fire at the 6 men and burned them to a crisp. The Dragon said,” Get on 

my back.” Lethan hoped on and it leapt into the air. It said,” Where are you camped.”

    Lethan said,” Right at the edge of the forest.” The dragon flew towards the edge of the forest, 

and Lethan well he was having the time of his life riding Dragon back. The dragon landed at 

Lethan’s camp. 

    It asked,” What is your name and why are you in Wangor forest.”

     Lethan answered,” I am seeking the flaming sword of the Dragon Knights.” A strange 

expression appeared on the dragon’s face. Then Lethan asked,” What is your name?” Then he 

went over and started to build a fire, while he waited for an answer. 

The Dragon replied,” It’s Anthus.” 

Lethan looked at Anthus in the light of the newly made fire. That’s when he saw the red strip 

running right down his back. 

    Lethan exclaimed,” Your of the race of Dragon’s that bore the Dragon Knights,”

    Anthus said,” Yes I am but I’m tired and so are you so let’s get some sleep and talk about it in 

the morning.” The 2 new friends went to sleep.

     The next morning Lethan woke up and cooked breakfast. Anthus asked,” So do you know 

where the sword is?”

     Lethan replied,” Yes it lies in a cave in Mt. Handar.”

    Anthus said,” I know where that is I could fly you their in under and hour.” Lethan finishes his 

breakfast and hops up onto Anthus and then they soared into the air. 

Lethan asked,” So are there any others like you?”

Anthus answered,” Yes there are we all live on an island 10 miles off the coast hidden by a magic 

fog.”

Lethan said,” I didn’t know that.”

    Anthus said,” Not many people do the ones of us that survived the war went their but I wasn’t 

in the war I was born on the island.” 

Lethan was about to ask another question but that’s when he saw the cave, the whole object of 

his quest. Anthus descended and landed right outside the cave. The 2 of them stared in to the 

monstrous maw of the cave. A couple of seconds later  both of them entered the cave. They 

walked for about 10 minutes when they saw the case holding a gleaming red sword. Lethan 

walked over to the case and noticed that there was an inscription on it. 

     It said,” Only one who possesses the silver sword with the golden hilt may take this sword for 

it is  the essence of this sword.” 

Lethan drew his sword and touched the case with it then he picked up the red sword. He pushed 

the 2 swords into each other and then there was a flash of Red light.

When the lightshow was finished the sword was one again. Then the voice of the old man said,” 

Well done Lethan.” 

    Anthus had a puzzled expression on his face and the Lethan yelled out,” Who are you.” 

Then a specter appeared in front of him it is in full armor with the symbol of the Dragon Knights 

on it. The specter said,” Hail Lethan my descendent and Anthus son of my good dragon, I’m 

Kelbonus lord of the dragon knights I have guided you here so that you 2 would meet and revive 

the Dragon Knights.”

    Anthus asked,” But why are you here.”

    Kelbonus replied,” I have been waiting for you 2, you are destined to revive the Knights I took 

the swords essence with me when I died so that no one could take it but know that the 2 of you 

are here my spirit can finally rest, farewell.” 

Then Kelbonus vanished. The  of them exited the cave. Lethan yelled,” Anthus take me to White 

Moon!”

     Anthus said,” Yes Lethan.” Lethan hoped onto Anthus then they soared into the air.

     At castle White Moon one of the Knights was walking along the Ivory rampart when he saw a 

dragon  with a human riding it approaching the castle. He tried to warn everyone but it was to late 

the Dragon had just flown into the courtyard. The king exited his keep and went into the 

    courtyard and yelled,” What is the meaning of this?”

     The Rider said holding the flaming sword up high,” I’m Lethan descendent of Kelbonus lord of 

the dragon knights and I have come to revive the order.”

    Thus ends the first part of the knights of white moon the second part will tell of the revival of 

the Dragon knights inside the order of the White moon but also will tell of the great evil that 

threatens the planet Renkus.
