Seven chivalric orders reside within the Guild of Knights, eternally opposed in cause and at war with their peers.

And yet, seven chivalric orders are noble to each other, they do not mock the causes of their comrades, but hail them as equals. Seven chivalric orders are sporting to the others, they seek glorious contest, and do not shirk from conflict or snipe from afar. Seven chivalric orders are gallant to each other, and seek to inspire greatness in their foes by showing greatness in themselves, rather than stoop to the level of sneering partisans and the fruit-throwing masses.

You have written to myself and every Councilor seeking a place among the Guild, but you prove more with every word that you are not fit for it.

Penned by my hand on the 11th of Glacian, in the year 996 AF.
