Nearby, a small crowd had gathered around Harknail.
The warforged's formal bow and archaic speech only seemed to deepen the mystery. Villagers whispered among themselves while children peeked from behind their parents.
Eventually, one little girl worked up the courage to approach.
She tugged lightly on Harknail's cloak.
"Master Harknail," She asked, looking up at the towering construct. "Are you a knight?"
Harknail goes down on one knee to bring his face closer to the child's eye level. "Nay lass, I doth be a simple town guard. Though the town I hath guarded doth not be this one. Praying to Helm ere these many years hath granted me blessings. So mayhaps I doth be more than a guard now."
