Shaking her head, Laiya looked at the man next to Mordain and said, "Friend, do not forsake your own soul as well. Step aside."

Having recovered from the spell, the guard captain and a group of his men stormed over to the monks.

"What is the meaning of this?" He demanded.
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

"It really is amazing; she killed Kelan Wealer, not that I am complaining, but then the order welcomed her as their new leader. It makes one wonder if I were to ram a blade down her throat, would the monks then follow my commands?" - Mordain Thaendil.

Kelan wheeled about on the captain and said, "Captain, do you fear evil? Do you fear for the salvation of your soul?"

"I fear evil, of course. And if it weren't for Lord Mordain, then evil would have claimed everyone in this city yesterday! Now what do you think you are doing?"
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

"The Will of Aracen," said Kelan. "Do not interfere; you and your men are no match for us, and you will be damning them all."

"Don't you dare threaten them!" roared Mordain, taking more steps forward.

The captain nodded to Mordain before continuing. "The monks of Aracen have no power. In the lands of the Order, perhaps, but not in Weissland."
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

"Things have changed, Captain," said Kelan. "Do not be so foolish so as to damn yourself and your men to Kilnor's belly."

"Prove it. If you're here to carry out the King's commands, and if you the authority to do so, where's the proof? Not that it matters, for me and my men stand with Lord Mordain regardless."

"Leave it be, Captain. This is not something you or your men can aid me with. Go now, before these zealous fools harm you." said Mordain, his fists clenched tight and his gaze fixed on the monks.
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

Nathaniel lowered his sword for the time being and stepped forward. He said clearly "Captain, it is best you do what Lord Mordain asks. I know that a great many of the refugees from the rest of Weissland came to this city when the Army headed north to Asulien. You and your brave men are needed to protect the people of this city, and the refugees as well."

He said "You do not know me Captain, but I am from Crint. Many people from there arrived here as well, I ask you as one loyal servant of Weissland to another, keep them all safe. These monks do not care for the lives of the people like you do."

"You presume to know what we do and do not care about," said Laiya. "You are wrong. We care more about the people of Weissland than you could ever know, being the athiest that you seem to be. Lord Mordain knew we would come after him; by staying here in this city, he is endangering the people here. Did you see what he did to Asulien in his rage?"

"The only ones endangering this city are you. No one died in my confrontation with the traitor Mordus, and every piece of damage caused pales in comparison to the death of Shaellana." responded Mordain.

The captain, though still uncomfortable, began to back off. "If you have need of us my Lord, do not hesitate to call."

That was all he said before taking his men and leaving.
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

"You knew we were coming," sneered Kelan. "If you wanted to protect those you claim to care about, you would never have come anywhere near civilization."

"And if you gave a damn about them, you wouldn't be chasing me in the first place. I have done more for Weissland than you could hope to achieve in countless lifetimes. But, caring about what matters, let alone knowing what matters, is far beyond the ability of you out-dated fools."

"Aracen is eternal, as is Kilnor," said Kelan. "Yes, you helped to save the body of this country, but we are here to save its soul. Those who believe still outnumber those who do not, and those who do not will not remain that way for long. Mordain, you are the one who is outdated now."

"My life has been lived for Weissland. Even now, after I have lost one of the only people I ever felt anything for, I will still serve it. That much I have come to accept. Like it or not, I will continue to exist and I will continue to serve. In Shaellana's memory, I will defend this land that she loved so much."

"You can best serve it by repenting and ending this, Mordain," said Kelan. "You must realize that."

"Don't talk to me on what I should or shouldn't realise. The depth of your delusion knows no end!" roared the Mage of Shadows. "I will best serve it by doing what Shaellana would have wanted me to do; fighting for it."

"This can only end one way," said Kelan.

Looking at the man next to Mordain, Laiya said, "Please, stay out of this; this is not your quarrel."

"The only way this will end, Kelan, is by you living just long enough to watch your heart stop beating!" said Mordain, taking another step.
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

Nathaniel added, looking at the female monk who had addressed him earlier "Do you know what Lord Mordain did to me recently? He arrested me, had me tortured and interrogated, put me on trial and held my very life in the palm of his hand, his judgement. And yet I trust him completely as a loyal servant of Weissland. I have served Weissland loyally for my entire life, my family has done the same for generations. I might trust Aracen, but I do not trust those he calls his monks at all. I have seen leaders of religions in other lands do some terrible evils in the name of religion, because they saw everything in absolute terms, one or the other, nothing existing in the middle. That is an evil in itself, and it is one you are displaying here."

Nathaniel continued "If a loyal servant of Weissland is threatened, I will aid him to my dying breath, with every drop of my blood. There are older and more powerful things in the world that have faced me and underestimated my resolve, to their end."
