Words Can Hurt
Posted by Preston on 09/26/22
The Faith appreciates that tempers flare during conflict, and we pray - and indeed call on all to pray - for honourable resolution in the Isles. We remind those so empassioned however that those who swear to the Gods leave behind the bonds of family, and just as they will not move to help their family out of any interest but the Faith's, so they also shall not bear their vendettas or conflicts.
If any should publicly utter threats against a Blessed of the Faith so loudly that they reach my ears, it would be regrettable. The Faith has no interest in playing a role in this conflict, if we are forced to then know that we do not step into conflict in half measures. Any House, from either side, that threatened the Faith or her interests will find their holdings soon have no stone sitting atop another except in accident, and our Seraphs will tend to the domain in neutrality until a recognised winner emerges.
But thankfully, I chose to spend today in quiet prayer so naturally I have heard no such utterances. And shall not, I am sure, from this day forth.
By my hand,
Sir Preston Godsworn
Carnifex of the Faith
Grandmaster of the Holy Knights of the Temple

And how lucky they are to have you defend them. It reminds me of when my father did the same for me.
