A Ragnarok Excerpt; Dedicated to Lightbringer's Father
Years after the disbandment of the Rose Croix Protectorate, it's soldiers have gone on their own lives to tend to what raised them to be able to reach where they are: home.
Home is where everything begins, and though for some who never knew their past, like the assassin Lee Jung Hyun, he finds himself in a situation wherein it is best not to know his past. . . for in the passing of none, no grievance shall be made.
The assassin, not knowing the identity of his parents, stares at the paladin who is rarely seen to kneel or drop his shield. Jeus bows his head as the rest of his familygrieves with him, his brothers and sisters embracing the cold steel of his armor, letting their tears flow down the metal to reach the earth where the casket was to be buried, in hopes to quench the thirst of their father in his new journey to, hopefully, a better world.
Further behind the flank of the Lightbringer family stands sympathizers from the guilds of Ouroboros, Alagad ni Kalantiao, Metaphysical Adobo and the Knights Templar...
It was even rare to see some of the leaders of these guilds to come into one place again, ever since Rose Croix was disbanded before the worlds were merged peacefully by the Gods themselves after the wars of the Undead, the Demon World merger and the Reign of the Machine Empire.
Yet after so many conquests, it stands true: everything begins at home, and it is here on the glades of far northern Al De Baran where the sire of the house of Lightbringer shall lay, where one of the greatest Paladins in the world of Fenrir will bear a weakness and a source of strength for this moment as Jeus Lightbringer bids his final farewell to one of the former officials of the Government of the Pronteran Republic, that was borne from the secession of the Pronteran Kingdom, a soldier, a husband, a brother and to Jeus. . . his father.
And as the casket is lowered into the ground, gusts of snowflakes marry the raining rose petals that once flourished throughout the heavily defended walls of Virchbruek.
Virchbruek, where history was made and a part of the power that made history was from the house of Lightbringer.
