These are
the secrets of the Brulorian Order, the Sentinels who follow Brulor the Just
and honor Omnos the Creator. None outside our Order must ever be taught these
techniques on pain of death and everlasting damnation.
While
mounted combat is common among the various martial orders and private armies,
only the holy monks of Brulor have perfected the art; we are unparalleled and
unmatched, save for perhaps the Cavaliers of Blue Mount. When a Sentinel is on
his horse and prepared, he is an unstoppable mechanism of retribution.
One of the
greatest secrets of the Order however is that the techniques for riding can,
with some contemplation, prayer, and practice be applied to footed melee as
well. When you have mastered a particular skill of mounted combat, seclude
yourself from others and meditate on you and your horse as one being rather
than two. Absorb the movement of this unity, and pray to Brulor or Omnos for
understanding. Maintain this meditation in footed combat to your success.
Additionally
the experienced knights in the Order are able to call their steeds from realms
beyond, but it is said that some of the Cavaliers of Blue Mount chose instead
to form bonds with their horses of this world and those horses gained
extraordinary abilities thereby. Be not discouraged as the greatest of us know
techniques of summoning to place our otherworldly mount in use in any
battle. Once you have grown in faith to
the point where Omnos or Brulor grants you the ability to cure disease, seek
out the Book of Mounts from the seniors of our order or travel to the Citadel
to receive training on these penultimate techniques.
