CLARIFYING THE MISUNDERSTANDINGS An Official Response from the Hyspian Crown Issued by the Viceroyal Crown 14th of Horen’s Calling, 87 D.R. LET IT BE KNOWN, The Viceroyalty of Hyspia does not approve nor endorse the actions of Alexander Llopis and the Hyspian medic. Both missives are not official documents from the government. Neither Alexander Llopis nor the Hyspian physician are members of the Viceroy’s Council. Neither of them approached the government regarding these matters. Posting bounties without the approval of the Hyspian Crown is against the law. Taking official action without consultation and consent from the Monarch and the Consejo, is henceforth a CRIME. Thus, Alexander Llopis, charged on two accounts, and by the order of His Highness, Cesar II, shall be: I. Suspended from all active service duties in the Orden de Francisco for four Saint’s Weeks. After suspension he may re-enlist into the Order at the discretion of the Colonel. However, he shall be required to participate in the defense of Hyspia when called upon, as a citizen militia during this time. II. Required to pay a two hundred mina fine for his actions. This fine is due within three Saint’s days. Failure to pay will result in imprisonment for five Saint’s Weeks. III. Required to rescind all bounties on the capture of Paladins and the Knights of Xan. Furthermore, the Hyspian physician who published such a scathing missive accusing the Paladins of theft, shall be censured. The Paladins have been granted access in Hyspia at the approval of the Viceroyal Crown. They had offered their assistance in investigating the recent Darkspawn attacks that had befallen Hyspian citizens. The Order of the Saint Jude of Holy Mother Church is also providing assistance in investigating the Darkspawn. The Viceroyalty of Hyspia DOES NOT endorse the persecution of Paladins. No charges, nor accusations are brought against them on behalf of Hyspia. The Knights of Xan are still permitted to enter within the territories of Hyspia to assist us against the darkspawn threat. Signed, HIS HIGHNESS, Cesar II de Pelear, Viceroy of Hyspia, Duke of Pacazu, Baron of Arenisca and Del’mar, Lord of Ladorada, Lord of Niseep, Gereon's Hold, and Ciudad de Plata, Gran Maestre of El Orden de Francisco, Protector of the Hyspian People, Protector of the Farfolk, Patriarch of House de Pelear

The Fuentistas Resolve Scribed by Prescott Sands [!] Artist depiction of Jose Fuentes during his bout of illness. It has been three years since I’ve been left bedridden due to a bout of sudden illness that was plagued upon me after the Battle of Westmark. Since that time, there have been many things that I’ve disagreed with, but cannot find myself able to act upon due to my unstable condition. For this, I apologize for my inability to properly bear my duties as the Margrave of Coracoa. Yet now I will not bite my tongue. The recent accusations against the Paladins of Xan, a faithful ally of the Mother Church in their crusade against darkspawn, is blasphemous. Nonetheless, putting a bounty on faithful allies of the Church is simply irresponsible of the Regiment, though it seems this action was done by a militia. I can assure you that the Colonel, my brother Pedro Fuentes, would never go as far as to do such a heretical action. Thus, I, Jose Fuentes, hereby demand these actions to ensure that Hyspia’s reputation will not be tarnished: I. House Fuentes and their followers, henceforth called ‘Fuentistas’, demand the removal of the bounty on the Paladin accused of trespassing and burglary. II. House Fuentes and the Fuentistas ask the Crown for a report to be published based on the findings of possible Darkspawn lying in wait in Hyspia. III. House Fuentes and the Fuentistas ask for a formal apology to be issued to the Paladins of Xan for the slander done on behalf of government representatives. If these demands aren’t met, the Fuentistas will begin a series of protests that will negatively impact the region. This includes, but is not limited to; Refusal of taking up arms, Refusal to pay taxes, Refusal to do duties within the nation. This will not stand. Signed, 𝔍𝔬𝔰𝔢 𝔉𝔲𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔰 Margrave of Coracoa, Knight of Hyspia

To the lion that hides In which a dragon scribes a note, to the cat the sunlit cuck. May fire bless his name, and cure it of the disease he carries. X*n, why is it you fear him? Why is it you hide now? Are you not order? is that not what you claim, yet you make excuses? After excuse. Pathetic. He has risen, you know it, you hear it, you smell and feel and see his presence. You do not smite him, because you are weak, and scared, you hide in your realm refusing to sunder. And as you dare not meet the prophecies that were placed on the plane, tell me you have people who worship you. How pitiful is it, to see their master scared. Instead, you focus your personal hate towards A z d r o m o t h. More - towards ALL dragons, for no more than a personal act. Not for the Order you worship and suckle at like a worn-out teat, for even a lion knows not to tread ground near the dragon's cavern . . . I to understand your grief. And I understand your jealousy. . . That your beloved and most loved, someone who you’d place down your life for.. Left you. But can you blame them? For why couldn’t she, she saw something better, a creature of immaculate purpose and she loved it, she cared for it. How can anyone blame her? Dragons can be the most cunning creatures, if looked at right. Yet you hated this, that you could NEVER be that immaculate thing that she desired so much. Is that why you hate us? Claim that we are an abomination ? PAHAHAHAHAHA. Really how pathetic, I fight all the battles, I challenge thee The dark? It will be swallowed by my avarice flame. The light? My fire shineth brighter and burns ever more violently. It is not blinding, it is pure and not corrupted. What is it you have to offer? Then false power. NOTHING. You have nothing to offer. Then rid yourself, you have no purpose. You beg for worship, you are no better than the thing you fear. . . Dare I speak its name. It really must kill you inside, knowing that my beloved father, he who lacks no true rival. resides in his vast chambers, crying out with laughter ; Hahaha, knowing even if you did kill us all. That your hate will only grow. And we will exist forever. Blessed be Azdromoth our king, where he keeps the world upright on his ivory wings . . . “ALL HAIL GIVER OF FLAME. FATHER OF GIANTS. ALL HAIL THE TITAN.” “FIRST BORN. THEE ARCH-DRAKAAR. THE GREAT A Z D R O M O T H.” ALL HAIL. THE KING OF KINGS. LONG SHALL BE HIS DAYS.

Brotherhood of the Golden Lion Let it be known, the Paladins of Xan shall assist the descendants in their efforts to purge any blight that roams these lands. The Maker and his chosen Divine wills it! The Initiate’s Oath ‘I, namehere, do hereby swear that I shall walk upon the path of Xan, Aengul of Order and Guardianship. That I shall live righteously, and deny the sinful nature of my curse; for within my right hand I carry His hammer to strike away the Darkness. Within my left, his shield; holding firm to protect the Descendants of this realm. May those below take me, and those above shun me, should I break this Oath. For those who seek to betray their fellow brothers and sisters, a warning: As stated in the Divine Creed of the Lion, the punishment for Chaos sown is to be denied communion with our ineffable Lord. You have been warned. Ranks: The ranks descend from the Divinely appointed, to the humble Initiate. Prophet The Prophet of Xan, the Lion’s own voice within the realm of mortality. He is considered the spiritual leader of all who profess loyalty unto the Ivory King. Traditionally, this seat is reserved for those descendants of Xan himself, the Athna, though there have been prophets self-proclaimed. Keeper Keepers are the Avatars of Xan, as the Prophet is his voice. Upon his rebirth, Xan created for his service two beings to make his will manifest.. Thus are the Keepers of Guardianship and Order. To disobey them is to disobey Xan himself. Highlord The Highlord of Xan is the chosen leader of the Patron’s holy brethren. It is they to whom all ultimately answer to, and it is upon their shoulders alone that the Brotherhood’s direction rests. High Templar The High Templar is aide to the Highlord, serving as general and overseer. To become High Templar is to stand ardently by the Highlord’s side, handling the general operations of the Order. Templar Templars are those chosen few of Xan who have elected to take upon themselves the burden of instruction. It is they who are responsible for those apprentices taught, and it is they who conduct the final trial of an initiate. Master Vindicator / Master Wyrmstalker Those vindicators and wyrmstalkers who have beseeched the Highlord for a greater role, are the Masters. They are the assistants of the templars, leading the crusaders, initiates, and recruits upon their path. It is they who frequently lead the patrols that roam upon the lands, and rally a broken defense to stand defiant against the Deceiver’s legions. Vindicator / Wyrmstalker Those paladins who have completed their training, but have not yet felt the call towards leadership, are merely Vindicators and Wyrmstalkers. Honored for their devotion, they are the few who stand in direct opposition to darkness in all it’s forms, wielding the holy boons to devastating effect. Vindicator / Wyrmstalker Apprentice After being gifted with Xan’s holy boons, the newly christened paladin has risen to the Brotherhood’s meritorious service. The path of a paladin, be it wyrmstalker or vindicator, is determined shortly after connection by the apprentice themselves. Crusader Crusaders are those initiates who have been deemed ready and reviewed, but yet await connection and assignment to a Templar. Initiate Initiate is given to those recruits who have passed their tasks, and proven themselves fully committed upon the path. Initiates are assigned a Master to study under for combat training, history, lessons, and trials. When the Master deems them ready, they are brought before the Templars for review and connection. Recruit Recruits are those desirous of joining Xan’s Holy Chosen. They are given an interview, basic information about our Order, the duties expected of Paladins, and are given tasks to show their dedication. Application To those who wish to stand with us, we of Xan welcome you with open arms. Though it is no minor thing to pledge yourself thusly, know that all are afforded the tasks, it is only upon your willpower that you persevere. Seek out those Templars mentioned, or send a bird to Highlord Ianril the Waveharp with your name, gender, age, and a little about why you wish to commit yourself to this holy path. Those of you who seek to defy us, flee. You shall soon join Setherien within the annals of our long and prosperous history as but a footnote.
