The Scarlet Paladin

Greeting Claire inside the kitchen was her birth mother, Eve. Claire received most of her physical traits from her mother, making Eve look like an older version of Claire. Scarlett red hair and green eyes with a plumper body. Years of homemaking allowed her to let herself go somewhat, one of the few villagers with a bit of a belly. One thing Claire did not receive was her breasts, her mother was gifted with double D breasts that Claire always envied. 

“Hey Sweetie,” Eve said looking up from the stove. She was making breakfast for the family. The smell sent Claire in a trance, finally noticing how hungry she was. “Jane’s outside and could use some help with the cows”

Claire nodded and walked outside to her other mom, Jane. Jane was Ryley’s birth mother, and the fulfilled the dad role of their family. She had dark brown hair and tanned skin due to constantly being in the sun. Her toned body was forged with years of farm work and manual labor. Claire entered the barn and found her milking one of their cows. 

“Hey Ma, need anything?” Claire asked.

“Yeah, could you get me more buckets?” She said while milking the cows udders. She pointed to a lone cow. “Will be done faster if you help with Bessy over there”

Claire sighs and grabs the buckets her mother asked for. After handing them over, she grabbed another and headed towards Bessy. The smell of hay and manure hit her nose as she got close and she let out a gag. She began the process and got into the rhythm of milking. They sat in silence for a long while until the buckets they needed were filled. Jane got up before Claire and left the barn, this confused Claire as she didn’t even take the buckets. In bewilderment, Claire headed to the door. Right as she opened the door though, she was hit with a surprise.

The whole village was gathered outside the barn. ”Surprise!” they all shouted in unison. Claire jumped in shock, her heart skipping a beat. She looked around at her village, the Twins and their mother, the Carpenter family, the Chief and her wife, the local alchemist and blacksmith. Then to the person that made her heart nearly stop, Jasmine, her mentor. Short of words, she stuttered to say anything, finally taking a deep breath and smiling.

“Thank you everybody.” She said, hugging Eve and then Jane. Jane took her hand and led her to the outside table. There was a small feast set up, breakfast, lunch and dessert with a big cake. Claire’s mouth watered as the smell became intoxicating and her belly groaned in agreement. “Smells amazing, thanks Mom”

The village all began sitting down and gathering food. Claire sat at the head of the table with Eve on her right and Jasmine to her left. After Claire gathered her food, she began a toast. She raised her glass and declared.” To the village and prosperity of us all” and then she took a long gulp of her wine. A mix of bitterness and sweetness hit her tongue, she did her best to keep a straight face. Every other woman followed suit and clapped. Congratulations was given for reaching her 18th birthday, presents were given.

The carpenter family got her a whole new set of dresses, the Twins and her mother gave her a new hair brush, the elders gave her a bottle of wine. Then her mothers were up. Jane gave her a new sword made by Daphne, it had a simple, yet pretty handle. Its blade is short enough to be wielded alongside a shield. It fit well in her hand and looked razor sharp. Claire hugged Jane and kissed her cheek in thanks. Eve, however, gave her something that she kept hidden. Lingerie. ”When you find your Jane.” Eve whispered in her daughter’s ear. Embarrassed, Claire hid the lingerie under the table.

Finally, after overhearing Eve and laughing at the gift, Jasmine gave Claire an ornamental knife. An emerald in the hilt of the red wood handle. Pulling the blade from its sheath revealed the unmistakable patterns of Damascus steel. Gold filled in the grooves of the blade. She turned to the woman and studied her. Jasmine was a slim athletic woman with black short hair, and her deep gray eyes that Claire got lost in quite often. Her smiling face caused Claire to stutter,” T-thank y-you, this l-looks beautiful” 

Jasmine nodded and began explaining,” It was in a shop I found a while ago. The red handle and emerald gemstone reminded me of you and I just had to get it for today.” As she said this, Jasmine moved closer to her. Claire’s heart started to race and face turned red. Pointing to the blade, Jasmine continued, “This blade was hard to make apparently. Lining the blade with gold took the smith awhile, Daphne doubts she could do it herself.”

Claire was in danger, the proximity and smell of Jasmine was getting to her. Her eyes wandered to her body and then to her hips. The curves she’s been obsessed with since she was 16 and then back up to her gray eyes. Thanking the gods for being sat down, Claire’s cock began to rise, causing more panic for Claire. She gulped hard as she responded,” Incredible, I don’t know what to say.”

Jasmine giggled, causing Claire to swoon and her cock throbbed in agreement. “Don’t worry, I got it especially for you. You did well with your training so you deserved something this special.” Claire finally looked around the table and realized everyone was staring at them. Elsie, the older twin, laughed hard at Claire, causing a deeper blush. Jasmine laughed as well and then looked back at Claire. “Sorry, should let you guys eat,” she said.

With that, they began to dig in. Eve had roasted a turkey, mashed potatoes, eggs, toast, and bacon all spread out on the table. Claire loved her mother’s cooking, the spices and quality made her feel like a queen. It was one of few things that could cause her to stop focusing on Jasmine. Thankfully, stuffing her stomach allowed her cock to calm down enough to stand. Breathing a sigh of relief, the main event was about to begin.

“Claire, if you’ll follow me” the village chief, Elizabeth, said. She was an older lady with gray hair, her body showed her experience in combat with a more athletic build than expected for her age. “We’ll get your class sorted out”

Claire’s ears perked up and her mind went back to her dream. She knew that she was a paladin, but for who? What would her stat sheet tell her?
