Here are three alternate prose sections to continue the story: **Version 1 (red)** <nc-section data-title="Version 1" data-color="red"> As I dismounted Thunder, Sir Roland approached me with a firm handshake. "Ah, young Frederick, welcome to the castle," he said with a warm smile. The red sun was setting behind him, casting a reddish-orange glow on his armor. He eyed my horse with a hint of interest. "I see you've got a sturdy steed there. Tell me, where did you acquire him?" </nc-section> **Version 2 (green)** <nc-section data-title="Version 2" data-color="green"> Sir Roland's face broke into a wide grin as he strode towards me, his green cloak fluttering behind him. "Ho there, lad! Welcome to the castle. I'm Sir Roland, the local knight. I trust your journey was uneventful?" He nodded towards my horse. "Thunder, yes? A fine name for a fine steed. Come, let's get him settled in and we'll get you introduced to the others." </nc-section> **Version 3 (blue)** <nc-section data-title="Version 3" data-color="blue"> The evening sky reflected in the still waters of the moat as Sir Roland approached me, his blue surcoat glinting in the fading light. "Frederick, at last," he said with a gesture. "I've been expecting you. The castle master, Lord Thomas, will want to meet you. He's been seeking a new apprentice, and I reckon you might just fit the bill." He nodded towards the stables. "Leave Thunder here, the stable hands will see to him." </nc-section> Please let me know which one you'd like to use to continue the story.
