Back in Grimsbanne, although I interacted little with Sir Rufus, meeting him was inevitable. After all, Sam would join me in the garden daily, and he would get dragged away by Rufus.
That had been part of my daily life in the duke's mansion.
So, while I was with Fabian, I would sometime ask him about Sir Rufus. I asked just because I didn't want to get on his bad side, as he was always wary towards me.
But Rufus' story and how he ended up being Sam's knight was an interesting story to hear. At least for me.
It was said that, back when Grimsbanne was called Mock town, a place that was abandoned by the monarchy and a lawless land, a man ruled it.
Rufus.
They said that even though he was a human, his strength could par with those vampires. Thus, he gained the moniker as the strongest human in the Heart's Kingdom.
