Description

This is a Gallerlander chieftain, though it’s unclear which subtribe he was from. You can tell from the painting style that this was commissioned during the colonial era. The Gallerlander is depicted as a brutish character clinging to his primitive weapon. The Brintilians mocked the Gallerlanders’ general prohibition on using metal weapons.

Here, the chieftain displays the fire-hardened wooden spear-sword, which had almost no impact on the Brintilian heavy cavalry. Still, the Gallerlanders remained dangerous in their forests, particularly when swarming colonial knights with their superior numbers, and using tree running and other acrobatic tactics.

Master Arasemis has taught you and the other students how to use these methods, so that Candlestone is never defeated.
