== History ==
About 6 months before the events of [[The Knights of Crystallia]], a delegation from the [[Wardens of the Standard]] arrived in [[Nalhalla]] and approached King Dartmoor about setting up and embassy and opening peace talks. While suspicious, King Dartmoor agreed.{{book ref|a3|6}} The draw of peace was strong enough that he was ready to give up [[Mokia]] in exchange (and had most of the other members of the council ready to do the same) when [[Grandpa Smedry]] returned.{{book ref|a3|4}}
 
He was about to sign the treaty giving Mokia to the [[Librarian]]s when Prince [[Rikers Dartmoor|Rikers]] entered the chamber of the Council of Kings and demanded the proceedings be halted. After hearing Prince Riker's story and seeing [[Fitzroy]] brought in bound, he interrogated [[Kangchenjunga Sarekgjakka]], aka She Who Cannot be Named, and refused to let her weasel out of the interrogation with half answers. After the interrogation he called for a second which left him as the deciding vote. After a brief hesitation, he ripped the treaty in half.{{book ref|a3|20}}
 
During the resulting battle, he drew his sword and stood guard over [[Draulin]] when she fell due to the corruption of the [[Mindstone]].{{book ref|a3|21}}

{{quote
|‘I will not be the king who was offered peace and who passed it by, Leavenworth. I will not be a warmonger. If there is a chance at reconciliation . . . But we should speak of this someplace outside the public eye. Let us retire to my sitting room.’
|King Dartmoor{{book ref|a3|4}}
}}
 
{{quote
|‘I find it telling,’ he declared to Swcbn, ‘that you cannot control your own people despite the importance of these talks! I find it disturbing that you would be willing to execute one of your own for joining a kingdom with which you claim you want to be friends. And, most of all, I find it disgusting what I nearly did. I want you Librarians out of my kingdom by midnight. These talks are at an end.’
