White Knight part 2
All the great and heroic men had missed the point in there wars for power, religion, position all forgot a simple rule, a rule I thought I lived by but…I now know it was just words to me. The people to not exist to give the nobility position, No the Nobility exist to Protect and Defend the people….
My vision again spun and I found myself on the cold stone floor, the wetness I felt were tears, I wept, deep in my soul I felt the lose, the lose of what we are, what we could have been, the sin’s of the Knight’s of the Chromatic orders, my Order failed, but we live. Of all the Orders only two survive, The White Order and the Black Order. I reached out to touch the Graal, though I am not worthy, when my fingers touched the metal I expected to be burned, instead a warmth spread through me, the emptiness in my soul seemed to be filled, and I knew what must be done. The Graal has chosen me to be it’s champion, I must first prove to myself I am worthy. In the North, below where the savages of Cern hold sway there is an Earl, his people trapped in the grip of plague, the Earl bleeds his people.
I draw my hand back, that emptiness again gnaws at me, rising I remove my armor to set it before the Graal, my sword as well. I walk from the chamber donning a dark cloak, knowing what must be done I set forth to the north, the people suffer….the time for war is over, taking up the sword is the same as failing. The time for war is past, now is the time for Lyonesse to heal.
