Forget George and the Dragon.
Forget Sir Lancelot and tales of Knightly exploits.
This is a mercenary knight as you''ve never seen one before.

Twenty eight florins a month is a huge price to pay, for a man to stand between you and the Wild.

Twenty eight florins a month is nowhere near enough when a wyvern''s jaws snap shut on your helmet in the hot stink of battle, and the beast starts to rip the head from your shoulders.

It takes all the advantages of birth, training, and the luck of the devil to do it.

The Red Knight has all three, he has youth on his side, and he''s determined to turn a profit. So when he hires his company out to protect an Abbess and her nunnery it''s just another job. The abbey is rich, the nuns are pretty and the monster preying on them is n
