<nc-section data-title="Chapter 1: The Arrival" data-color="red"> The horse's hooves clattered on the cobblestones as I reined Thunder to a halt near the stables. A tall, broad-shouldered knight in chainmail approached, his face weathered from countless campaigns. "You must be the new squire," Sir Roland's voice boomed like thunder over a battlefield. His gaze was sharp, missing nothing as he looked me over. "The stables are no place for idle hands, boy. Tend to your mount, then report to the armory. We begin at dawn." With that curt dismissal, he turned on his heel and strode away, leaving me to wonder what harsh trials awaited. </nc-section> <nc-section data-title="Chapter 1: The Arrival" data-color="green"> As I dismounted, an older knight with a kind smile and greying temples emerged from the stables, brushing hay from his tunic. "Frederick, I presume?" Sir Roland's voice was warm as summer honey. "Let me help you with that saddle." His calloused hands moved with practiced ease as he showed me how to properly care for Thunder. "A knight is only as good as his steed," he said gently. "Tomorrow we'll start with the basics, but tonight—rest. The road has been long, and a full belly awaits you in the great hall." </nc-section> <nc-section data-title="Chapter 1: The Arrival" data-color="blue"> The stable doors swung open as I was loosening Thunder's girth. Sir Roland stood framed in the doorway, his expression unreadable, eyes the color of winter ice. "The castle has been expecting you," he said, his voice low and measured. He reached out and ran a hand along Thunder's flank with surprising gentleness. "This is a fine animal. Treat him well, and he may save your life someday." He studied me for a long moment before adding, "Meet me at the training grounds at first light. Do not be late." He turned without another word, his blue cloak swirling behind him like a storm cloud. </nc-section>
