[Lucky Fool]

“I swear, the word cowardice gets tossed around like a used rag. Are we cowards for standing up for Giants judged guilty for crimes they did not commit and to one that would control us with a tether?” - Minister Bailey Rowe

Within the jungles of Kindlehelm Magi and Non-Magi alike begin to arm themselves. Shields, spears, blades, and rifles are inspected thrice as an engagement looms over the horizon. Arcanists and Runemancers alike take to work in laying reality-warping runes beneath the cover of flora. Defenses are garnered en masse for guerilla tactics for invaders far from their homes.

The dunes stir and yet the jungle remains silent. A warning is provided to those that march towards a budding hub of innovation as a horned Minister of Kindlehelm takes a spot upon the frontlines.

“There was another just like you who found pride in the wealth they carried. I provided him Hope by blinding him, showing him that there are those around him he could care for. Turn around or be taught the same lesson.”

"Huh... and here I thought I had a new friend. A shame, least I lost you before you could cause a heart ache. Who knew my life was little more to you than a bargaining chip to become an heir. A little shameful, isn't it?

Either way, only groveling I've done in a long while is for my husband's life. If that means I'm not on your level... I don't want to be there with you." - Bansai Talalt
