The Adventures of Decen and Merrow

The Adventures of Decen and Merrow acts as a prologue in some sorts, and looks into Samuel Mason's old life, as Paladin Decen of Acadia.

The Paladins. A powerful breed of warriors, who served the mighty Acadians in the land of Acadia, a long time ago. Each Paladin stood for something innate to them, and as such, were feared and honoured by all those who are lucky enough to meet them... or unlucky enough to be targeted by them.

Strong, steadfast, and respected, each Paladin served the Acadians with an undying loyalty. But no Paladin was perfect. That was where their Guardians came in. Guardians assigned to serve as the companions of the Paladin, in an unbreakable bond. Guardians chosen to fulfill the Paladin in areas he or she lacks, and to become one unifying force to be reckoned with.

The most sought Guardians were the mighty beasts. The dragons, the wolves, the warriors, and the monsters. No man could stand against the mighty Paladin and their beast.
