''Many centuries ago, in Medieval England, there was a knight so invincible, that he was thought to be the toughest knight that ever lived. He was known only as Tommy. He lived in Cromwell, which was a settlement in Nottinghamshire, it was the location of Newark Castle, where King John, who he defended, lived with his daughter Luciana, who he adored. In many wars he fought for his king and never yielded to the enemy forces, and never was it thought that he would ever perish in battle. He, himself, never believed that he would ever die. But, during the commencement of a fight there was a vigorous yet peculiar gleam which was twinkling like a vanishing ruby, it teleported him to the twenty-first century, where he is considered a legend. In time, he discovered that King John no longer lived, his daughter Luciana was too considered a legend and all he knew were now long gone. The settlement of Cromwell perished in a fire, that wiped it from existence.''
