S2 Bonus 4: The Knight Before

Returning from what may be his final hunt, Arthas joins his clan in a celebration. Tomorrow he begins his apprenticeship under the Aerir, the elder who is responsible for maintaining and remembering the histories of the Giant-kin. Unlike his friends and family, however, the celebration holds no joy for Arthas.

Just as a storm begins to roll in, Arthas hears the sound of metal clanging and hoofbeats clapping against the stone. Heading up toward the cave where his people dwell, Arthas sees a man riding a strange beast. This man, named Yancy, claims to be a knight and asks for food and shelter from the storm. Yancy is granted leave to stay until the storm passes, and Arthas is anxious to learn all about the wide world beyond his cave. What he and Yancy discuss alters the course of Arthas’s future.
