My teacher was a knight. He taught me all that there was to know about combat. My teacher was a healer. He showed me the power that a healing hand can have. My teacher was fallen.
In a disagreement with his superiors, he was expelled from the army. All had had done was shown mercy to one who was weaker then him. This was a blatant disregard of his orders, and he suffered for it.
The person he spared was me, Joachiim. A weak person with a weak spirit, I knew nothing, and he saw that with his great wisdom. Even though I was a political enemy, he saw in me the weak soul and the potential for a great one.
My teacher took me in, and regardless of the fact that I had fought on the other side of the war, and was the cause of his exile. He trained me in books, the sword, and the way of the crystal. He showed me the power of wisdom, and taught me great will. But above all that, he taught me to always care for those who are weaker, and to always gain power to help even more, regardless of their personal alignment. For if all the world came under the care of one such as that, then there would be no pain, no one would be forced into exile for doing a good deed.
Unfortunately, my time with me teacher was short for soon after I came under his tutorship, some men from the group I had been with came back. They had found out that I was training with a former Knight you see, and believed that I had betrayed them. They came to kill me, but my teacher fought them off. They were many however, and when he told me to run, I saw him overwhelmed. But before he was struck down, he slew Aerken, the leader of the group, so that he could never follow me again.
I have named him father, and dubbed the misunderstood and great warrior the only name he will go by in the annals of time, so that his disgrace is never realized, by the name of the last deed he did, he is called Aerkensbane, and he is the true leader of the soldiers, for he was the one who taught me.
In the tradition of his great sacrifice, I have begun an army, but this army will not be like the one which exiled Aerkensbane. It will be one that will accept either side of a fight, as long as they give their first allegiance to the guild, and not to the other sides, and as long as they do not hurt another member of the guild. They will function as a whole, following the example of our master, helping the weak, and growing stronger to receive the respect we deserve and need to gain the power to end the strife!
Long Live the Soldiers of Aerkensbane
