When you get to the bath house there are about 100 knights milling around the bath house some bathing other talking and eatting at eatery that have started around the bathhouse, all the knights are Knight of the Kingdom you notice 4 knights guarding the streets in all points heading into the bathhouse, several hundred squires are roaming and chatting, All stop when you past and give you a slight bow, a few knight pat you on the back and say congrat, Best man for the job, good work! excellent choice! some shake your hand as you enter into the bathhouse, and the room goes quiet as
Little Jimmy walk up to you and said, "Bad news Sir, we all voted 300 yays and 50 nays and 100 not present, and name you Grand Marshal of the Knight of the Kingdom, as was order by the King office that a Grand Marshal must be name by noon today or lose the order, That was a hour ago.

Giving him a smile and shaking his hand.

"Thanks I think. I didn't even get a chance to cast my vote. Which would have probably been for you."

Giving him a big smile.

"When I came in the gate. I was told that I have 4 hours to report to the king. I was worried about why he would need to see me. I'm thinking that this is what it may be about. I need to go take a bath and get ready I only have 2 hours left. Can you get with Lady Margetta and Daisy and then meet me after I take my bath. I'm curious to see if the three of you might be able to read anything into this. I know a grand marshal of the order was needed but I wonder why the short notice. Oh by the way this is my companion 'Shadow'"

I will let Shadow know that Daisy, Lady Kettleworth, Little Jimmy and my squire are my most trusted companions.

After a hour of soaking, being bath by beautiful women, they begin to cloth you in a formal suit you not wore before and the women said when the tailor down the street heard that there was to be a grandmaster he design and made the suit, he done some of your suits before and when he found out who won he adjusted it. after the women leave the chamber you look at the mirror looking at the suit made of silk and sewing with silver with the emblem of the order on the back of the cape and the honor metals you receive on your chest along with the crest of the kingdom, all in greens with black leather boots. You see a flicker of movement behind you from the mirror.

I will turn quickly to see what is behind me. Putting my hand on my sword just in case I need it. I will reserve an action just in case I will be in combat.

"The Land your King want you to build a pass through is our land, sacred to the Black Dwaves, We do not want your people on our land, The pass you have choosen is not to the lands you seek but to the Orc lands, If you open that way both of our kingdoms could fall.
The route you seek is south of there and we are willing to open the way for you but it will take 20 years to open a road passable to you humans into the Kingdoms of Spices. when done we will lease the road to you for 50 years with options of leasing for another 50 year for 1/2 the tolls you gain. But we will not allow any settlers on the mountain range but will allow defense posts.
In return you must not allow anyone to open the pass in our sacred area. you can either take our offer or we will consider war with the Land of the King." crossing his arms across his chest as a fail point.

Unless something else happens, I will quickly finish getting dressed, unless i'm already dressed. I will then head out quickly looking for little jimmy. "I just had a surprise visit from a representative of the black dwarves. He will be back in 5 days. He left by melding right through the walls. We will need to keep an eye out for more such breeches."

Unless anyone else has something for me. I will get an escort and head off to my visit with the king.

Little Jimmy seem pissed about the breach of security. Took you 10 min to to calm him down, and the building was search, he then insisted that 10 Knights in Parade gear to escort you to the King. When you seem to balk he insisted saying as head of the order it only fitting you be escorted in style.

"Don't go stomping up there acting like a men-at-arms greeting his Lord," muttering, "ye go in style and show the court that the Knights of the Kingdom are equal to any!" Wiping a tear," Remember sir! out of the hundreds knights orders, ours was the first order created 1000 years ago by the first king to give the people of this land safe conduct and to protect the land!" grumbling again "It is sad that the order was destroy by This king father as traitors to the realm! WE must bring back our honor!

"FOR HONOR!" he sais "FOR HONOR!" a hundred men stand in the room and shouted out drawing their blades above them
"FOR HONESTY!" they shout again "FOR HONESTY!"
"FOR HOPE!" They chorus louder "FOR HOPE!"

"WE THE KNIGHTS OF THE KINGDOM DO PLEDGE!" cheered and they sheath their weapons and turn to you and kneel as one.

I will draw my sword and raise it above my head.

"As you pledge yourself to me. I will pledge myself to all of you. And I swear by all that I hold dear that we will bring our order back to the glory it once held! TO THE KNIGHTS OF THE KINGDOM!"

I will then sheath my sword.

I will then wait to see what effect it has on the men.
