Duke Hartman von Luxembourg sat upon his seat of power in the land of his ancestors. At the moment, the young man was twirling the white queen of his chess set in his hand as he prepared to make his next move against his old friend and mentor.
The man sitting across from the young Duke went by the name of Renault De la Roche. He was a Frenchman by birth. Yet, he had travelled into the heart of Luxembourg and swore his service decades ago to the father of the young man sitting in front of him.
Since then, he had looked after the bastard of Luxembourg as if he were his own child. Teaching him the ways of Chivalry, and the tactics that a Duke should know should he wish to be victorious on the field of battle.
