Hello, My name is Nathan. I am an explorer, Or I try to be. I have spent most of my time in Lumbridge so far, But I have been to Edgeville and Varrock. Now you could say That the gear I have on now isn't the best, And I would agree with you, But a full set of steel gets the job done. What am I doing now? Oh, Just finishing a little job the Cook sent me to do, He needed some ingredients for the Dukes cake, And him being busy and all, I decided to go make the ingredients for him. Not as hard as it looks.

I enter the castle kitchen and see the Cook has been waiting for me.

"Do you have the top quality ingredients I have asked for?"

I set the Milk, Egg, And flour in front of him and watched as he grew a big goofy smile on his face.

"Thank you so much! Here, Have this for helping me."

He tossed me a small bag of coins, It wasn't much but it would do. I waved at him as I exited the kitchen and walked into the castle hallway, I think I saw a rat in this part of the castle once but it was probably just my imagination.

Its a sunny day as I step outside of the old Castle. I look around I see a few people selling armor and weapon's, Not as much as Varrock would have but I guess they got tired of how crowded it was. I look back down at my leather clad hands carrying the little amount of gold the Cook gave me for getting his ingredients to make a cake for the Duke, I start to wonder what I should spend it on.

Don't really need new armor, Steel seems to be doing a great job. A new sword? Nah, I like my steel longsword. Maybe I should just put it in the bank? Seems like the best choice.

As I make my decision I start to walk down the long dirt path that goes to the Edgeville bank. I wonder what the Dukes cake taste like, Wish I had some. It isn't long before I see a large group of people all standing around one spot, What could this be about? I make my way towards the front of the group and see something strange. A man in some weird looking red armor with spikes on the shoulders, I think that's Dragon armor but I'm not sure. He also has a green cape with a fist on it, I have seen these types of capes before with different symbols but I never knew what they stood for. He seems to be pulling on something stuck in a large rock, it looks like a... Sword? But it doesn't look like any kind of sword i have seen, The blade is pure White while the hilt is Midnight blue with a symbol of... A horse thing with a horn and wings... A unicorn with wings. What would they call that?.

"Darnit! I cant get this thing out!" The man says in rage as he throws his hands in the air. " There ain't no one that could get this stubborn sword out if I cant!"

Challenge accepted.

I step out of the crowd and look at the man "How about you give me about 500 coins if I pull it out?"

The man looks at me for a second before bursting into laughter

"Pfft! Aha! Oh right, The big strong man in Steel armor is going to pull out the sword! Hahaha! I have the cape of ultimate strength and I couldn't get it out! Do you really think a weakling like you can!?"

"Yes."

The man erupted into laughter

I was getting a little bit annoyed by the mans laughter, It was time to show him who was the strongest.

"Be quiet! We will see who the weakling is after I pull the sword out!"

I walked up to the sword and put my hands on the hilt and started pulling, The sword didn't budge. I started pulling harder and harder but it still didn't move. If only I was Zezima.

I was thinking about giving up, But then I hear that laughter again...

Hes going down.

I started to pull with all my might, hoping that the sword would do something, anything.

At last, I heard a *crack* as the crowd and the man went silent, I heard another *crack* I'm doing it! I am actually pulling the sword out! I smirked as a heard a few more cracks. Finally there was a *shing* as I pulled the sword out of the rock. I looked at the sword for a few seconds noticing there was an aura starting to form around it, cool.

"Wh-What!? That's not possible! You cheated!"

I looked back to the man as he had a look of pure rage on his face.

"I demand you duel me, I will crush you!"

The man unsheathed a long red sword, It was longer than most other swords I have seen, Hopefully longer does not mean deadlier.

I started to realize that I didn't really have a choice in dueling him or not, So I raised my new sword hoping that it had some kind of magical force field or maby health regeneration.

The man started running at me as I readied my new sword, He was about to strike when-

*poof*
