<nc-section data-title="Version 1: A Stern Greeting" data-color="red"> As I dismounted near the stables, a tall figure approached, clad in gleaming armor. Sir Roland, the castle's most seasoned knight, stood before me with an unyielding gaze. "Frederick," he said, his voice sharp and commanding, "training here is not for the faint-hearted. Prove your worth swiftly, or you’ll find yourself back in the village before the fortnight is out." His words hung heavy in the air, and I swallowed hard, nodding in silent determination. </nc-section> <nc-section data-title="Version 2: A Warm Welcome" data-color="green"> I was brushing Thunder down when a kindly voice called out, "Frederick, is it?" I turned to see Sir Roland, his broad smile framed by a neatly trimmed beard. He clapped a hand on my shoulder. "Welcome to the castle, lad. We’ll make a fine knight out of you yet." His demeanor put me at ease, and I felt a surge of excitement for the journey ahead. "Thank you, Sir Roland," I replied, returning his smile with genuine gratitude. </nc-section> <nc-section data-title="Version 3: A Cautious Meeting" data-color="blue"> As I led Thunder into the stable, I noticed a knight watching me from the shadows. Sir Roland stepped forward, his piercing blue eyes studying me intently. "Frederick," he said, his tone measured, "training here will test your resolve. Do not take this lightly." His words were neither harsh nor warm but carried a weight of expectation. I straightened my posture, meeting his gaze. "I’m ready, Sir Roland," I said, hoping my voice sounded steadier than I felt. </nc-section>
