FROM THE DESK OF THE HIGH STEWARD HEAD OF THE DARKWALD ELDER COUNCIL Since our foundations, the Darkwald Order has acted as a stalwart defender against the creatures of darkness, providing a sword arm to protect those who cannot protect themselves. In taking up the mantle of the prime Demon hunters in the Empire, our Order expects our membership to keep focused on our purpose, and not to be led astray by pleasant words with darker histories behind them. Having dealt with the Witchblooded Duke Leufred du Briërust, now du Triege, and following our full independence from the treasonous nature of Duchess Milena du Briërust, now Cadieux, it would seem to be abundantly clear in our mind that the Darkwald Order has had enough with this bloodline, and anything related to their lineage is detrimental to our mission. Therefore, it comes at great concern that one of our own has been reported to not only have taken up the role of a paper pushing steward, not only in the service of one who has been deemed a heretic to Tirgunn, but also to one who employs the use of Mages into their service. This betrayal of duty, even if done wholly in ignorance, cannot be allowed to fester more than it has, and so we have moved accordingly to preserve the honor of our Order. We therefore order Sir Fulgore Fänger, Man-at-Arms of the Darkwald Order, to immediately cease his services to House Cadieux with all matters of haste. Should his Divinity, Lord Roul, prove to be aligned with the Purist Movement, we shall permit you to serve as his personal guard, though the position of this so called "Valet de Chambre" is one outside the scope of your property duties to the Order. You are a trained Knight that protects the good people of this Empire from the occult evils, and your honor begs greater prestige than to be the attendant of a nobleman. We also order all other Darkwald Knights within the Holy City to ensure compliance to our directive, per Regalian Knight Law 5. This concludes our public missive to the Order. Long may the Empire last, as we pray for His Imperial Holiness's swift recovery. @SomeRandomMan
