The End of Sir Cearbhall Kingshield

by Cearbhall Kingshield

The legend recalling the second half of the Company's quest, detailing their adventures, trials and battles as they acquired all of the other relics, assembled an army, united the realm, crowned Martin, fought and defeated the Other King and set about restoring the realm before Sir Cearbhall's departure
 
It was then that Sir Cearbhall returned to Dojon. There he looked in on Mara, the wife of Sir Tawaka, and her child, making sure they were provided for and wanting for nothing. He visited the dojo and inspected some of the new students under the watchful eye of Sir Shang. Lastly he returned to the tea house in search of Ting but all he found was an upstairs room completely bare except for the green teapot and cups Sir Cearbhall had gifted her sitting in the middle of the room. Sir Cearbhall could do nought but smile.
 
With all of his farewells said, Sir Cearbhall returned to his ship and finally set sail away from the Great Realm. No one knows his destination or what became of him. Some say he enlisted a small army of the finest mercenaries in the land and, with a few more ships, sailed north and took the fight to the Simians, raiding their coast and even establishing a fortified outpost to ensure the Simians never sailed south again. Others speculate the he sailed to the Free Cities where he lived a life of wealth and leisure, becoming a pillar in the community. Some claim that he sailed into the Dreamlands and with his magical sword Foe Slayer at his side began to explore the mysteries of this unknown place. But there are those that think he simply returned to his mountain to live out the rest of his days in peace, content with the knowledge that his task was done and that is was now down to the next generation to forge a golden future.
 
Thus ends the tale and the life of great and noble goat. The end of Sir Cearbhall Kingshield.
