v.1.1.0
‘Ascan! As our Order’s Fire Hand, you should know better than to keep bringing this up!’
‘But Jeorn-’
‘Excuse me?’
‘Grand Protector Jeorn,’ the Fire Hand was on thin ice as the insistence on ranks left nothing to interpretation. ‘Their popularity is growing, if you would at least be open to recruitment-’
‘I must not be making myself clear about these Teachings of the Five Pillars…’
‘I’ve already discussed it with two of our Lily Generals, and-’
‘POLITELY CONSIDER OUR VOWS, FIRE HAND! The Knights of the Lily are sworn to protect The Equilibrium from The Ash or The Flood. Dismissed!’
The Grand Protector turned to his table for a final showing that they were indeed done.
‘Then I truly am sorry, Sire,’ Fire Hand Ascan calmly said while unsheathing his sword, lighting it ablaze with a single swift motion of his glove. ‘But don’t worry. When the time is right…’
A sharp sting went through The Grand Protector’s chest and his face warmed from the flames of the blade sticking out.
‘…The Ash will cleanse this world, and the worthy will remain.’
