Trouble brewing
« on: June 17, 2012, 19:54:21 »
Well, I took some pictures that look like the start of a story.
I hope this is a good place to post this. Here it goes...


Today, there was a buzz that the falcons were up to something. Ever since the son of Lionheart disappeared a week ago, Falcon Keep has been closed to all.
Only the howling of wolves could be heard from within the walls.

Suddenly, a lot of shouting and the sound of wood and metal sounded.
With a shrieking, the ancient chains let go and the mighty drawbridge fell down.
After the dust settled, this was the situation.

One could only wonder what had happened. Did the bridge fall by accident? Or was there more to come?
Then it happened: a sliding sound and the heavy doors were opened.
But what is this? Those are not Falcon knights!

Could the rumours be truth? Has the greying king Falcon sold his soul to the grim foes from the north? That would explain the howling.

Meanwhile, at the royal castle, king Lionheart and the kings daughter in law Gwen are watching as a closed wagon is preparing to go on a journey.
Looking at the amount of knights in the escort, the contents of the wagon must be valuable indeed.


---more to come, but I don't know when yet.

The Lion castle looks quite nice, I never really saw much pics of it yet.  :)

Also good to see the guards are staying in shape, one appears to be doing push ups on the tower.  ;)

I see the posting has been moved. Sorry for not placing it in the right place the first time  ;D
Oh and that sleeping guard will be dealt with in a future episode  ;)

I have to rebuild the castles and scenes every day after my kids have gone to bed. There may be some errors in pictures.
Also, as I do not have a good 'studio' place yet, the backgrounds will be full of non-story related things. I am just very glad my wife lets me keep the castles in the living room.
Oh well, on to the next part...

In the main hall of Falcon Keep, king Falcon and his son, Peregrine, were having a discussion.
"Dad, I am having serious doubts about this whole plan".
"Silence! Do not doubt your father and king! I know what I am doing. This is for your future as well.
Remember that you are just a knight that happens to be a prince. You should follow your king all the way
."

"If that fool of a Lionheart does not hold his end of the deal, my hooded friend will make sure he will regret it!"
Downstairs, a silent figure stood watching his large collection and finally made a decision.
"Yes, this one is fit for a king" he growled. The hood did not show it, but the man was grinning.

"Whats happening out there?" a young, but strong, voice sounded from within the tower, "did I hear wolves?"
The keeper of the keys looked annoyed.

He turned around.
"Silence, you silly man. Wolves in Falcon Keep? You must be hearing things. Now just sit there and relax. The king may or may not get his willing, but either way it will be over soon!"
The young, but strong looking man sat silently down on the little wooden crate. The chains on his neck were just long enough for him to reach it. Oh well, it was better than sitting in the dirty straw that was spread out on the floor.

Meanwhile, the grim foes from the North walked silently across the drawbridge. Only the heavy breathing of the wolves that were moving the mighty warmachine could be heard. There were only six foes, but everyone in the country knew that six was all that it would take to conquer any army that would oppose them

As the last of the foes cleared the bridge, the mounted Falcon knights let out a sight of relieve. They knew what their king had planned, but they were glad the foes had left.

Now all they could do was hope the plan would work...
