<nc-section data-title="Version 1: A Stern Welcome" data-color="red"> The gates creaked open as I approached, and there stood Sir Roland, his armor gleaming under the fading sunlight. His eyes, sharp and assessing, locked onto mine as he stepped forward. "Frederick, is it?" His voice was deep, almost a growl. "You’re late. Discipline begins now. Tend to your horse and meet me in the courtyard. Don’t keep me waiting." Without another word, he turned on his heel and strode away, his cape billowing behind him. I swallowed hard and dismounted, my hands trembling slightly as I led Thunder into the stables. </nc-section> <nc-section data-title="Version 2: A Warm Greeting" data-color="green"> As I dismounted near the stables, Sir Roland approached with a broad smile. His weathered face softened as he extended a hand. "Frederick, welcome to the castle. I trust your journey was pleasant?" His tone was warm, almost fatherly. I shook his hand, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. "Yes, Sir Roland, thank you," I replied. He chuckled and patted Thunder’s neck. "Fine steed you’ve got there. Come, let’s get him settled, and then I’ll show you around. There’s much to learn, but I’m here to guide you." </nc-section> <nc-section data-title="Version 3: An Ambiguous Meeting" data-color="blue"> The figure of Sir Roland emerged from the shadows of the stables, his expression unreadable. He studied me for a moment, his gaze piercing yet distant. "Frederick," he said finally, his voice calm but devoid of warmth. "Your reputation precedes you. Let’s see if you live up to it." He gestured towards the stables. "Take care of your horse. We’ll speak more tomorrow." With that, he turned away, leaving me standing there, uncertain of what to make of his words. Thunder nudged my shoulder, grounding me, as I led him inside, my mind racing with questions. </nc-section>
