Once you return to the Priory after obtaining everything except the Greaves of the Crusader and the Sword of the Crusader, Lathon returns to inform you that Sir Roderic has died questing for the Sword. He gives you the Greaves, previously recovered by Sir Roderic, and requests to be Knighted so that he may follow you into Underpall Cave and avenge Sir Roderic. If you do Knight him, he will follow you to Underpall Cave and, dependant on your level, either help you or get killed quickly. You can tell him to wait outside if you wish. If you choose not to Knight him, he will remain at the Priory, leaving you free to recover the Sword by yourself. You will be able to Knight him on your return, before proceeding with the storyline.
