~Dictated by the Scribe of Lord M.Si'Talvace~

Sir Kinilan,

You profess that the amount of times you have been granted a title makes you a better professional of the business. I am not one to really proclaim my past, as it has created an interesting situation of a quarter of the realm holding hatred, a quarter holding admiration, and half indifferent, but I lets play this game, shall we?

Exiled on the day of my accolade from Cyrene originally, this should sound familiar.

Ordained by the Three Successor Houses, to become the First Knight of Hashan and offically allow them the ability to promote other Knights.

Raised to the rank of Lord by my Mother Goddess, to become one of Her Sun Knights, and Defenders of the Faith.

Rebuilt the Order of Ithmian Knights

First Knight of the Thorn, Holder of Her Eternal Thorn, of the Gaian Knights.

So, by my count, that is three Houses, and two Gods.

So please, continue to puff thy chest, and proclaim your greatness, but have respect and honor for those that strive to uphold chivalry in a world filled with indifference and apathy.

That's all, I have no need to puff myself, as I am completely indifferent myself to the politics and the agenda of Knighthood, as long as the dedication, honor, and respect those that have earned it are given it.

That is all, you may all carry on with your squabbles.

Oh, wait, on a side note. I do not believe in the concept of 'renouncing' or 'removing' titles. I believe what a person, man or woman, has earned is indeed, earned. But I do believe in the Guild, and I stand by them regardless. I have watched them grow from when it was simply the Council, into the Knights Council, into the Guild. I am proud of what those that have put forth the effort has accomplished, and if you were any sort of Knight, outside of your own greatness, you would be proud to see its tradition carry on as well.

Toodooloo,
Lord M. Si'Talvace
Knight of the Realm
