The tightly furrowed brows trembled slightly; the word "father" touched the softest part of Marshal Laco Aber's heart.
"Loyalty is the cornerstone of the Empire, whether it's loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor, the Empire, our forefathers, our family, or the people we protect... This young man named Roxey Colin is a nobleman worthy of respect."
Unlike those beasts in the Council of Elders disguised in human skin.
Those who clamored about tradition have long forgotten what tradition truly is, leaving only a hollow façade and a core that has been long decayed.
Saint Sis will not save them.
The great storm is their punishment!
On the contrary—
A truly reliable young man has been released from his "cage," right at this precarious moment.
No matter what outrageous deeds the Colin family did 500 years ago to deserve the abandonment of the Divine, at least at this moment, Saint Sis has chosen him.
Laco is willing to believe this is the will of the Divine.
