Roland met the man who would be his apprentice in Kalden, rescuing him from the fighting pits. The apprentice was an obstinate one—it was such obstinance that, in the apprentice's mind, caused Roland's death. As per Crusader tradition the apprentice took up his master's namesake, later reflecting on him fondly in a memoir. A Crusader named Roland (although not clear which of them) traveled with Inhora, Drakon and Haull, sharing knowledge and wine.
