So you steal from a nearby blacksmith, an evil being who tormented your father in earlier years. You go in steal a few weapons and find a lever. With no self-regard for your life, you flick it. Nothing happens. You continue stealing money but you see movement out the window. Thinking yo set off an alarm, you flee. But when you leave, you here the voice of the God Bane; 'You flee from your enemies, you are no worthy Paladin! You must defeat this foe before you are to become a warrior!' you now know that the only way for you to become a Paladin is to kill the Blacksmith.
