>>5211171You bid Brother Bardus gather the initiates, and he sets out to do so. Even many of the knights, not yet sworn to you or the order, follow as a crowd gathers around you.

"I did not acquire the blessing of the gods, but that was probably to be expected given the nature of our work to come. That we didn't gain their boon changes nothing of our crucial mission to defend our nation, homes, and families from those evildoers that would seek to undermine and destroy them, and I fully intend to carry this out to the best of my ability, blessing or no blessing."
Your duty binds you. Will it bind them?
