Standard Fiction Archetypes: Medival (Swords&Spells)

Sword and Spell Fantasy. Wizards, Knights and Damsels in Distress are the stock of these stories. Dark forests, labyrinthine caverns, and mighty castles fill the land; monsters and pirates rule the seas. This setting is the bread and butter of Dungeons and Dragons.

Jorge, Paladin of the 27th Order of Pelor, continues his arduous journey  to find the fair maiden Wisteria, for she had been stolen from her homeland. The ancient oaks of Thraine's Grove grew tall and stout and nearly blocked the sun from the forest floor. Being a notorious hideaway for bandits, trolls and other things that go bump-in-the-night, most villagers suspected she might be found there. Steep slopes and thick underbrush made traveling off the road nearly impossible, but no effort would keep Jorge from his mighty quest .
