| In Charlemagne's court, there are twelve legendary paladins who serve their king. |
| Tales of the paladins of Charlemagne once rivalled the stories of King Arthur and the knights of the Round Table in popularity. |
| He knew those legends well, as well as he knew the legends of Roland and the twelve paladins, and he would be intrigued by the retelling. |
| I am Sir Theron and she is Lady Ariane, we are paladins, and deserve the title we earned. |
| The table remained quiet for a few moments, and a wave of uneasiness flowed between the two paladins. |
| When she is forced to flee back to Asia, she is followed by Orlando, who is himself followed in turn by other paladins. |
