Knight Lore will be the title of my Medieval Stories  when my mediaval set up is complete. I am sure nowhere near the quality and standards than Vauban has set with his stories but i will try my best . Being away from my Den and collection has allowed me time to write notes on the script of the story that will be running for at least 12 months with photos etc and will probably finish with an epic battle at the end  ( thats the idea ...) , the key characters wont be just King Iseroth , Sir Agnar and his son  but characters from the dragonland kingdoms, yellow dragons , magic , merry men and some townfolk, i will be running a main story along with a couple other in parallel i think, i am working on the main story ,characters and names now, mostly derived from Viking's name database and Dungeons and Dragons. This story will have no relevance to the map as i have my own yellow dragons etc and it will be set in a different universe still with Krull as the Empire of the LAnd and various other smaller kingdoms . it will run for at least a year and unless i have to use the den for something else ( which i doubt as i will have my playmo den number 2 in athens ready in sep) it might run even for longer as i dont think i will find easily the courage to dismantle my set up

I chose that name as a homage to one of the greatest computer pioneering games of all time and since in my story there will be  a quest for finding ingredients for a magic potion , a brave knight , his  love, a princess , an evil wizard ..... and lots of armies and dragons.... I estimate that  my story will commence in late June so I ask for your patience as i continue with my preparations.....and King Iseroth will be a wise, fair , just and peace loving Emperor respected and loved by all but with many dragon kingdoms as enemies ...... For the time being i shall present you with the cover of this tale....

I am pleased to inform you that my mediaval set up is 75% complete now, much progress has been achieved , however no pictures wil be shown til everything is ready and a  series of photostories wil be presented under the title Knight Lore, each photostory will be a chapter and i plan to have no less that 12 chapters in the Knight Lore epic, one of which will be a jousting tournament i hope!!! As  i am lucky to have a new playmoden from september in athens , i shall keep my mediaval set up , set for no less than a full years once its complete ( mid july) and i might even extend this to finish my stories . In  - not the final-  a chapter there will be a massive battle between Emperor Iseroth and the Empire ( in my world, Krull is an empire ) and the combined forces of the dragon kingdoms and the vikings...also in anotehr story there wil be a full scale attack of dragons to the city of krull, another story will be a massive attack from the empire to the  Big Forrest . I think i ahve said enough , i have written about 16 pages for the 12 stories , each will link to one another and follow a timeline. There are some very high standards in this forum ( such as the work by Vauban ) , all i can say i will endeavor to do my best ( i will use a professional camera for these stories etc ) and that there will be a lot of klickies in my stories that i will try and make them the best i can . All these stories will take place in the fantastic world of Krull and will have no association to the rest of the mediaval map , as in these stories, Krull is a planet , ruled by an emperor and has various kingdoms in it some loyal some enemy to Emperor Iseroth. What will be shown next will be my first photostory which is a lighthearted one in the city of krull , will be posted complete mid July i estimate.  Lighthearted doesnt mean of course that there will no violence and death , both elements will have a strong presence in Krull's tales !!!!!!  :knight: :knight: :knight: :knight:
