Quote:                                                 " I think, therefore I rat."

                                                   "The rat learns, it accepts nothing that it's not self-evident."

                                                   "[i]The rat evolves, it knows to always divide problems into their simplest parts "

[i]                                                     "I become more than a rat, I become a father. [i] "

[i][i][i]                                                     "The father gains a name and a purpose, it knows what it must do.[i] "

[i][i][i][i][i][i][i]                                                     "Sir.Gurd knows that it's all for him, all for the fair father.[i]"[i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i][i]            [/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i][/i]

In the early hours of Serenity, whilst the flames of resent and pain still linger. While the threats of the outside, and fears within; fester like a rot, a Cowpoke made his way to the square. The air is heavy with uncertainty. Morale flickers like a dying candle.

Three of Serenity's best lay dead, whilst another is ravaged beyond belief. Truly, half-the-man that he was. Even with the prosthetics, the Klein was not the man he was. No longer, so fast. No longer, so quick-witted. Dour, and dreary--caught in the same miasmic dread that overtook many.

Quote:"I almost died. Arguably, I should be dead. My body was brought to a desecrated spot, amidst those sands. My wounds, ought of left me nothing more then a foot note. I couldn't even bear witness to the valiant effort of those many brave souls in th'north. And honestly? I feel ashamed of such. That I could not stand with them. That I could not bleed beside them. That I could not shoulder their burdens, together."

Upon that Field. I failed my duty.

"I ask myself, still, now. Why do I still live? Why was I saved? Why do my lungs yet-work, why do I yet find the strength to hobble in these arcanium limbs? Why was I one of the few to see the next sunrise, after that dreary night? Why am I alive?"

I still don't know the answer. Why fate's path had been orchestrated so, that I made it out. That I can still see some future, on the horizon. That my heart still beats and my blood still bleeds crimson for my home. Why, am I alive, Serenity?"

Because my duty is not yet-finished."

White Oil.
Of which, the Klein partakes...as the scars seared upon him, all-but-vanish. As the cane used to hobble him into the square is dropped, and his limbs seem to return; fueled by the divine energies of the Aetherblossom. It's a miraculous--once in a lifetime Second Chance. One the Cowpoke does not waste as his words grow hearkened with fervency. Now standing on his own two feet.

Quote:I yet live, by the Grace of Rued Silvanas, and now? I yet hold the potential to fight again--by the Grace of the rightful heir, Daire Silvanas. By their name, has my duty been allowed to continue. And by their name, am I goin' to keep fighting!! 

Our duty remains, even when those who gave it to us do not.
We exterminate the Fel.
We stand against that which goes Bump in th'Night.
And we stand as a Bulwark of the West, even when our legs have grown tired.
We have not failed. And we ain't Finished!
So stand, Serenity. For our duty yet-calls to us.
And the Sage has blood to pay for.

• You were raised with the basic teachings about the sisters, and you may delve deeper into this in the future if you so wish. Your faith 'essentially' unfolds within the laws governed by our universe – your respect lies fully in the Constants, especially in Mortyl.
  

• Due to the education given by your father – An 'intellectual' level and a yearning for the pursuit of knowledge are expected, as this is essentially the foundation of your upbringing. Discernment and a matured mindset are expected, even in your youthful age.
  

• Due to the education given by your mother – A fundamental knowledge of combat for your own protection is expected. Wisdom in choosing your battles, and strategy. You grew up with game boards and always had a combat instructor at your disposal.
  

• You grew up hating demons and anything tied to the Fel; your moral compass regarding humanity, stemming from the apathy inherited from your family, may result in your indifference toward people.
  

• You were raised alongside and grew up with the children of Christophore Garijn and Tate Brier, who are a few years younger than you. On that note, you will have coincidental access to Christophore Garijn, Mavethkar’s Grandmaster Artisan, spiritmancer, wayfinder, order and chaos mage, arcane mage, and general know-it-all.
  

• Your mother is an excellent cook and general hoarder of things. You will have everything you need provided for you. Your father is an artificer as well, and will be able to provide any equipment needed for you. Alchemists are not a part of the immediate family, but you would be aware of several that you are related to indirectly.
  

• There are two slots available, twins were mentioned but not required. You are simply born at the same time. You can fight amongst each other to be crowned eldest. You will be a drakanite or a human. Your mother has green eyes, your father has white eyes. Both have black hair.
  

For over a hundred years, we have advanced.

Quote:"I'm sorry, Sahra, Piers and my dear 0C.. Our legacy comes to an end upon a grim page of the history. As our city, our home, is gone with the wind.
 
However there are those who still remain, I will see how far they will reach now, or if their fate shall be the same as ours."
