So far this is the most original story I have read of this type here at Ficwad. Oh what a unsympathitic hero! A whiner and a complainer but Ya got a love him. Then Samaul the knight, he is not what one would guess a knight to be. Friendly to all but perhaps not as bright as he should be. The style of writting and the way things are discribed gave me a good feel of the time period for this story. You know the only bad thing I can say is a typo I found. You spelled Digger instead of Dagger.
