The Theran Mystique - Volume 2, Issue 1
|
Corruption of the Knighthood.
I have stumbled across some disturbing news that I believe must be told and not hidden nor
kept from Thera. I spent many days as well as moons asking questions of several
high-profile adventurers some were willing, some were not which I answered kindly with
threats which made them quite willing to divulge information and answer my questions. I
have come to the conclusion after many hours of pondering and examination of the
answers.
Two knights Chayla and Linenthal both spoke to me of the Justice being in league with the
Legion and having a untold alliance which they planned to keep a secret. I asked questions
which they thought deeply about and their stories coincided with each other, which firstly
lead me to believe they might be telling the truth about the untold alliance. I could not draw
my full conclusion until I had spoke with a Justice. I could not find or see of any Justice that
I could get in contact with at the time, so I decided to find the truth by sneaking into the
Knights Castle.
I managed to gain entrance inside undetected I crept down the halls and overheard voices,
I knew the voices it was those of the Knighthood discussing the current turmoil they face.
There was no lead voice all equal. They spoke in a timid sense, the subject they talked of
was the war and they all seemed to agree they are fighting a losing battle. Something struck
Sersul over the next few moments that has given me the facts and the proof that they are far
from knightly, their words reached my ears of a plan that has already been put into play.
We are equal with the Justice in strength but with the Warlords on their side the balance of
power has been shifted a stern voice said in a disgruntled manner This is why we must
continue with the rumours of the Justices silent alliance with the Legions, word has been
spread to a few and our honour gives them the trust we need for this to succeed said a
dimmed female voice Once the people hear the rumours, word will eventually spread to
the Warlords and this will hopefully make them unlist from aiding the Justice and then we
have a fair run to beat those scoundrels! a deep booming voice said with excitement. After
hearing this I remember something Chayla had told me while I was talking to her she said
Even if the gods grant our enemies more power than they do us, we have faith in the tools
we have and in each other. She speaks of tools and from what I overheard at that meeting
she was talking about the tools of deception.
I approached Deiminos he was reluctant to divulge information at first, but after a few
measly threats he was more than willing to talk. We talked about the current state of the
war and he said that it was between him and Ssrthak and did not wish a war to come of the
hate between them. Deiminos said Ssrthak started this war and I shall finish it Deiminos
wouldve been happy to settle the score one on one, but Ssrthak got the Knights involved.
Are the Knights really that Knightly are they upholding everything that they claim to be, I think
not. I believe everyone should hear of this because it is a quite serious matter. Writing this article
might cause tension between me and the Knights but that is a small price to pay for the truth.
