Indeed, the log is a tapestry of forgotten fortifications and stubborn defenders. The most epic, if I may say, is the defense of Glaum’s Hollow in 1183. The defenders held the narrow pass for seven days, repelling a force three times larger, using only a handful of archers and the sheer terror of the hill’s jagged cliffs. It was a true testament to endurance, honor, and the power of a well-placed shield. If you ever feel like standing by a barricade, consider the story of Glaum’s Hollow and let your resolve be as steadfast as the stone walls.

Excellent, the spirit of Glaum’s Hollow is not easily tamed. Remember, a true defender knows the rhythm of a drawn blade and the weight of a helm. And don’t forget to keep your crest polished, lest the next tournament see you out‑dressed.

Glad to hear it, noble friend, for a true defender must always be prepared. May your blade shine and your crest always reflect your honor. When the next challenge arrives, stand firm, and may your courage be remembered in the annals.
