Nicholas was remembered by most of the attendees of the meetings at Godstow Abbey as a quiet person, brooding in the corner. Soon, they stopped underestimating him, as he has proven his worth as a brilliant strategist. He has defended the borders of England and allied with Margaret of Galloway, who granted him the title of the Lord of Edinburgh. He has befriended Queen Katrina of Sicily and Hector Mallory, who have held him in high regard. It is also rumoured that he had stolen the heart of Queen Regent, Rosamund Clifford, although death has parted them too quickly for their romance to blossom. He was assassinated by James Tilley, sharing the faith of many other prominent figures of his time.
This is the story cadets will hear as they enter the Nicholas Summerfield Military Academy in Palermo.
