只看楼主收藏回复

这是runescape第一本小说,本人看过,。觉得非常不错,最让人兴奋的是书中提到我们在游戏里的地方(比如:barbarian village, etc.)书的主要内容如下:The book begins during the winter of the Year 164, five years prior to the current events of RuneScape. During one of the season's blizzards, a statue near the entrance to the White Knights' Castle in Falador is shattered, forcing a number of white knights to leave the castle and retrieve its remains. Amongst these is Squire Theodore, apparently a young White Knight in-training.
As the statue is being brought into the castle, a young girl is suddenly teleported to a point near the entrance of the castle, apparently injured and near death. Theodore discovers her and, hoping to save her life, helps to carry her to the castle's infirmary. The head of the infirmary, Elise, attempts to save her under the supervision of Sir Amik Varze, the head of the White Knights and ruler of Falador since the Asgarnian King Vallance fell ill. The girl is found to have in her possession a sword made of an unknown metal, a mysterious white flower, and a shattered ring of unknown nature.
Meanwhile, outside Falador, terror ensues as a creature begins to feed on travellers traversing Asgarnia's roads. As refugees enter Falador to escape the monster, Theodore is sent to Taverley to investigate the nature of the items the girl had in her possession. Once in Taverley, he meets an elderly alchemist named Ebenezer and his young companion Gar'rth, alongside Theodore's old friend Castimir who had spent years training in the Wizards' Tower of southern Misthalin. With the aid of Kaqemeex, the druidic leader of Taverley, the group finds that the flower is a white pearl, a flower known to grow atop of both the nearby White Wolf Mountain, and the perilous Ice Mountain.
As this occurs, a violent group of men loyal to the H.A.M. cult enrage a group of peasants near Port Sarim, convincing them that the "monster" that has been terrorising Asgarnia is the dwarf Doric. Doric, having secretly leftKeldagrim some years before, is confronted by the drunken mob in his home north of Falador. They beat and rob him, finally burning down his house and leaving him for dead. The monster, before having planned to eat Doric, instead pursues the H.A.M. Speaker and his men, killing them in the night.
Theodore discovers Doric on his return to Falador, and offers to aid him in pursuing legal action in Falador. Doric reluctantly agrees, and both are forced to flee when they sense they are being chased by the monster. The monster pursues them, smelling on them "the scent it is looking for". Upon returning to Falador, they find that the girl, Kara-Meir, has awoken, and that the ring she had been carrying was one of a set of 50 rings of life once given to loyal knights of Falador. Sir Amik Varze, Sir Tiffy Cashien, Bhuler, and the rest of the council believe that the one that betrayed Falador some years before is involved. They speculate that Kara-Meir could be the daughter ofSir Justrain, a wrongly banished White Knight that had received such a ring and then travelled to live in the north.

    Kara-Meir, as she recovers, slowly shares her tale. Ten years before, in the Year 154, her small village in northern Asgarnia was raided by a group of Kinshra under a deformed commander named Sulla, slaying her entire family and leaving her the only survivor. She was saved from freezing by Master Phyllis, an elderly member of a dwarven clan, who raised her for ten years amongst the dwarves. She had only recently sought revenge upon Sulla, but was nearly killed when she was overpowered by him and his men. The ring of life had saved her, teleporting her to Falador. She shows an affinity for swordsmanship, defeating Theodore's rival, Marius, in a mock-duel.
    The monster, revealed to be a werewolf from Morytania named Jerrod, attempts to enter the White Knights' Castle, but is unable to due to mysterious magicks protecting the castle. He takes up residence in the home of a beggar, whom he eventually kills to hide his identity. Sulla, meanwhile, ascends to lordship of the Kinshra by assassinating their unpopular leader. He then begins to put into motion the events of the War of 164, in which he hopes he can gain control of Asgarnia. As he weaves his plan, however, he begins to have dreams of Kara-Meir, whom he believed dead after her failed attack. Because he has slain so many, he cannot remember her from the village raid ten years before.
    Jerrod eventually manages to kidnap a young White Knight peon named Bryant, whom he believes has information related to what he is chasing. During his interrogation, Jerrod bites Bryant, but tells him not to worry, as Humanscannot become a Werewolf by any means, though Jerrod is soon attacked by Doric, Theodore, and Kara-Meir, only narrowly managing to escape. Bryant, who had escaped ahead of his companions, is met on Dagger Alley by a fellow knight, whom he hopes can help him. He is killed, but apparently he manages to kill his attacker, Sir Balladish, before he can escape. Kara-Meir fights off Jerrod, cutting off two of his fingers and an ear. Bryant and Balladish are discovered dead, and Balladish is deemed the betrayer of Falador.
    Shortly after, Ebenezer, Gar'rth, and Castimir meet up with Kara-Meir, Doric, and Theodore. Ebenezer explains that, since finding Gar'rth, the child had been extremely ill and unable to speak more than a few basic sentences. The group travel to the Monastery near Asgarnia's north-east border, stopping in the Gunnarsgrunn to gain the help of the Fremennik priestess Arisha. While in the town's longhall, Gar'rth gets into a fight, and a nosebleed he receives during the fistfight is shown to be dark black. The group realises that Gar'rth is a werewolf, and that Ebenezer had been helping him to function in normal society since finding. Once in the monastery, Abbot Langleyoffers to help cure Gar'rth, as well as to help Kara-Meir research her father. Gar'rth does not fully succumb to the effects of an exorcism, but shows his desire to resist the effects of lycanthropy.
    Jerrod pursues the scent to the Monastery. While in the woods, he meets Sulla and a small army of Kinshra soldiers, all moving towards the Monastery to launch their first attack. Jerrod explains that the scent he pursued was Gar'rth's, and that he has been ordered by Lord Lowerniel Vergidiyad Drakan of Morytania to bring him back. The two agree to help each other, Sulla hoping to use Jerrod in battle and Jerrod hoping to capture Gar'rth and get revenge on Kara-Meir.
