+A [[the_immortal_knight_s_journey|book]], written by [[tarik_nowlin|Tarik Nowlin]], details a number of [[sir_faris|Sir Faris's]] incredible adventures. It documents his many travels, including his quest to travel through rifts to collect powerful artifacts. That journey eventually led him to the [[colosseum_of_ashes|Colosseum of Ashes]]. - Deathmatch at the Colosseum of Ashes (RPA-SQ1)
+>//Earning the rank of champion, the Immortal Knight was offered his freedom by the [[sylvian|Grandmaster]] of Games. Refusing, he demanded liberty for all combatants. Amused by this request, the [[sylvian|Grandmaster]] agreed to release one gladiator of the Immortal Knight's choosing. It was through this means that [[taron|King Taron]] was freed. After many more years in the [[colosseum_of_ashes|colosseum]], the Immortal Knight followed his lord back to [[ulos|Ulos]]. He found, to his dismay, that King Taron had built an arena of his own, subjecting combatants to the same cruelty he had witnessed in the [[colosseum_of_ashes|Colosseum of Ashes]].//
