[ This dawn, and every other, given in service to his Lord. Though Godfrey's own devotion to his calling felt a more intimate one than the childhood fervor Zevlor details, and though his own did not first involve soldiery and warfare, he knows what it is to be a child reaching to heights you cannot possibly understand - and to grasp on to it, once you are tall enough to brush your fingers against its possibility. ]
Forgive me if my saying so is impetuous, for my own oath is yet young. I think that to answer a call to protect is no small thing, and ought not be diminished by betrayal. Your continued dedication ought not be tarnished by machinations which none could have understood.
( same man, take ur time. i love when people match my freak (getting unpredictably existential and deep on tfln) )
