The villagers pick up their weapons, and I prepare to join them in the fight… until I see that they are vastly outnumbered by the dozens of bandits who charge inexorably through the town, slaughtering as they go. But as I leave, I hear shouting in the distance. I look forward to moving on to my next quest, a warm feeling in my belly from a job well done, and a village saved. Nevertheless, I only needed to train six of them, so I carried on – another five groups later, I’m done. At the end of each session, I have a short battle with the pupils who I feel have taken my lessons on board – but I’m so rubbish at teaching them that only one pupil from the first group is worth testing. As the training sessions begin, I remember that I only put one skill point into ‘Teaching’, and things go predictably badly. The village elder is overjoyed, and says that if I can train six of his men, they should be safe from the bandits. I tell the village elder that I can train his men to fight. None of the villagers know how to fight, so they just offer up their goods so as not to incur the bandits’ wrath. I ask him how things are going, and he tells me that the village is a mess because they keep getting raided by bandits. I look around for a bit, and I find the village elder. Doesn’t really matter now, for reasons you’ll understand shortly.
