I spoke to Tethesis earlier today of the battles with Phelanyo.
Somehow, the conversation wound to focus on the Knight
Executor's beliefs and the goals for his Knights, so I shall
scribe them here. 'The Castle has been completely misunderstood for ages past,' he stated. What people have been believing thus far, is that Knights are a force for vengeance, in essence a Justice of the Light, meant to beat back the Darkness for the grievances it has made against the good people of Thera. No longer is this the case, if it ever should have been. Nay, the Knights are now commanded forth by their leader to set Evil in its place before any harm can be done to destroy the vestiges of uncouthness and malevolence before they can come to fruition. Merely walking in the path of the shadows now merits a death warrant at the hands of a Knight, or at the very least a battle, for as Tethesis says: 'If an evil is truly not evil, or a good person, he will convert, else, we must assume that his refusal to convert is his pledge to the darkness, or that some part of the shadows yet offers appeal to his eyes, and so he remains on that path.' And for those dissenters who split from his administration following his declaration of such? 'The incapable, or the unwilling - the beings who have not the heart to be a Knight: they have been removed. If you ever speak to them,' Tethesis continued, 'all they can say is that I am a liar. They will call Drayskel a liar, they will call me corrupt, and any other name they know. However the problem lies in the fact that when you ask them why, they have no answer. They only seek to defile my image, to assassinate my character, to cover for their own mistakes and shortcomings.' Undaunted by the retaliatory accusations of former Knights, Tethesis finished with this statement: 'What I have stated, what I have done, is right, and I have the backing of the Gods, the ultimate approval.' |
