Roleplay from Godfrey Greybrook

Danger. Despair. Death. These are the words that came to mind of the young Sir Godfrey as he finished instructing his men to put down their weapons as they repaired part of the road that was damaged by a fallen tree which uprooted the earth. In an attempt to set an example, the knight of Rines began removing rocks away from an area which seemed to of caused a small waterlog from a nearby stream. At least half an hour past before Godfrey finally acknowledged the foul smell that came beyond the rocks. Curious and half expectant, Godfrey attempted to move a boulder from which the foul smell had come from. As much as he tried, the boulder would not move. Panting from the exertion, Godfrey chucked off his helmet as he sat on the ruined grassland. It was only then where he saw part of what caused the smell. Lodged underneath the landslide was the hilt of a weapon. Brushing the hardened dirt and mud away, more of what appeared to be a shortsword came to appear. After another 30 seconds, the weapon was above the surface. Looking down its sharp edge, it looked barely used and near perfect condition... This was when Godfrey saw a broken hand wrapped around the dark brown hilt, whose bodily host was still under the surface. The soldiers only saw their lord examining the unearthed weapon. Godfrey saw the plight of war and was shook to his core. He needed guidance. Danger. Despair. Death. Some time later, standing in a small village near the south of Glongin, Godfrey's eyes were full of zeal. After finding the dead body under the mud and dirt, Godfrey demanded to find out why this was not reported to the military. Several peasant inquiries later and some rather, "testing" interviews, Godfrey determined that the peasants of the village were guilty of attempting to pervert Obeah's justice. Therefore, in the south by a newly made river stood a row of more than twenty heads of peasants, daring to defy Godfrey and Obeah's justice. It was only the next day when the realisation of his actions were realised, almost like a drunkards daydream. Godfrey had regretted the actions of the night before. He was in no position to judge those peasants whose heads were now subject to only the crows. He had stepped over a line. Ashamed, Godfrey acknowledged the order to defeat the undead in Ardmore, hoping some military service would ease his conscious. The mental note was also made to meet a local clergyman for guidance in his actions.
