January 17, 2010 - Royal Banquet
A Royal Banquet was held in Castle British to welcome the new Captain of the Royal Guard, Commander Christine Keel, and to knight a 'hero' known an Hercules. A large selection of delicacies from all over the realm awaited to tempt those invited.

Hercules: The Story Begins, by The Britain Post

As the guests talked with Queen Dawn, the new Commander of the Royal Guard, and Minister Grey, a suspicious looking woman dressed as a servant made her way through the crowd. Eventually, someone noticed that she had a hair dye stain on the back of her neck and that she failed to respond to requests. When confronted, the woman pulled a dagger before vanished from sight and has not been seen since.

When it came time for Hercules to be knighted, he was nowhere to be found. Several people questioned why this man was to be honored, while one, Galen, said he had evidence that Hercules was a fraud and a kidnapper. Dismayed by this news, Queen Dawn traveled to Delucia where Galen had found the golden hind in the stables. Apparently, the hind was in fact the missing zookeeper, Lady Artemis - once whe was returned to Verity Isle she said Hercules had put a bag over her head and brought her to the Lost Lands.

A drunken Hercules eventually stumbled into the banquet hall where he was confronted by many angry citizens. His rude and boorish behavior eventually landed him in a cell in the Yew Prison.

Commander Keel assembled the V.R.G. at the Britain Counselor's Hall so they could investigate Hercules' reported 'acomplshments' in Ilshenar and the Abyss.

The defeact of the Ilshnarian Ant Lion was to be investigated first, so the Guard headed to the gypsy camp south of the Compassion Shrine where a golden egg case had been seen. There the Guard encountered evil ant lions working with ratmen to terrorize the gypsies. Once they had been defeated, a book written by the creature slain by Hercules was recovered.

A Plea and a Promise, by The Ilshnarian Ant Lion

Hercules had slain a noble creature, placing the gypsies in danger. Seeking to rectify the drunkard's error, the Guards helped the ant lion's offspering to hatch. They then led it to the Wisp Dungeon where memory crystals had been hidden - unfortunately they encounterd several more enemies of the original ant lion
