About this listen
Short Story Press Presents Squire Ryanus by David Beaver.
"Squire Ryanus" follows the tale of a young man who’s been a member of the Order of Majestic Truth most of his life in pursuit of the dream of becoming a Paladin. There he has given up childhood, friendships, and family in pursuit of the dream to gain a title in the order. After years of strife, he finally receives an invitation from the council to finally gain his title. Becoming a Paladin will consist of more than a mere knighting ceremony, however. Instead he will embark on a journey alone in order to obtain the Shield of Light, a powerful artifact that has been stolen by the forces of evil. Initially alone, he must track the beasts to their lair and fight to retrieve the shield, possibly shedding his blood in the process. Along the way however, he will meet a cast of quirky and colorful heroes to aid him in the quest. An unlikely bunch to follow a Paladin around, the mad wizard, shifty ranger, and sneaky rogue will join him at the fortress of the gnolls. If he survives, he will achieve his dream of becoming a Paladin and no longer go by the name of ‘Squire Ryanus’.

Lifelong friends, they went their separate ways. Now they are together again, though each holds secrets from the others in his heart. They speak of a world shadowed with rumors of war. They speak of tales of strange monsters, creatures of myth, creatures of legend. They do not speak of their secrets. Not then. Not until a chance encounter with a beautiful, sorrowful woman, who bears a magical crystal staff, draws the companions deeper into the shadows, forever changing their lives and shaping the fate of the world.

Mankind has lorded over the land of Illian for a thousand years, building on the ruins left by the elves, as if it were their birthright. A thousand years is a long time for an immortal race to see the truth of things, a truth that has remained unsaid for a millennium - elves are superior. They are faster, stronger, and connected to the magical realm in a way that man could never grasp. Illian should belong to them.

The difference in their uncanny eyes could not be easily discerned. In the rays of the setting sun, both Aravel's and Morlan's eyes appeared gold. In the pale moonlight...yellow. Seemingly the same. Such inscrutable likeness is the way of things with identical twins. But all who knew the two brothers well noted unmistakable differences, peculiarities more experienced than seen.
