Ved notices the text above the archway.

Ahh, hold here a moment. This is a paraphrase of a paraphrase of a translation of an ancient text.
'Know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
Know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.
Know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.'


Ved's hand touches the circlet on his head briefly. A moment later standing in his place is an muscular looking elf in blue leather armor with the crest of the Knights of the Alerion emblazon on the front. The tattoo on his left hand still exposed though with the change in his base skin tone the metallic red is more apparent.

Once the change is completed Ved will follow the others into the room staying near Kel.
