Sworn Novice

Description

I can’t believe what Thorel has done to my brothers! Would I have become like this if I had stayed? I have one more reason to thank good Abbot Dorin - he saw this coming and got me out in time. Writing these notes is painful:

They are incredibly fast! But I must add that they tire quickly, though they soon regain their stamina. Be cautious, Aran.

I nearly fainted when I saw them slashing their own throats! Beware, for when a novice does this, they unleash a deadly spinning frenzy.

There is no hope for the novices. I’m relieved that Aran is cutting them down. Here’s my advice:

Strike when they are exhausted - it’s just a brief moment, but it can make all the difference.

They attack in groups and at full speed. Large, heavy weapons don’t seem to be effective against them.

I can’t bear to keep writing about my former comrades, it’s too painful. Here’s my final note:

The beheaded novices show no mercy. Their spinning blades injure everyone in their path, including their own comrades.
