KSBD 3-44
Chapter: 3
What makes a knight?
A shining blade or bloody battered steel?
Let us name the Orders Four and the truth within reveal.
THE GEAS KNIGHT unknown by name, the seeker proud and true,
His endless quest hath rent the stars yet known is he by few,
THE PEREGRINE, whose bell always rings the crack of breaking day,
It’s nameless peal will drive the ceaseless evil from the ways,
THE BLOODY KNIGHT, belligerent, her edge tastes skulls and lives,
The viscera of common men and royalty besides,
THE MENDICANT, the beggar knight, roughly clad and shod,
He lives as though he were a beast, but fights he as a God.
– Children’s Rhyme.
The downfall of the gilded age of tea and lilies lied in its most precious possession: peace. It is a toxin born of hate, luring those that fear the path to heaven with false enlightenment. Only suffering begets wisdom.
Reach heaven by violence.
They were like children wearing the clothes of parents, ignorant and foolish.Building a eden while not knowing the blueprints. Like fleas they jumped from world to world, sucking the life blood of a thousand earths.
May their memory disappear into oblivion.
With an open mind, seek and listen to all the highest ideals. Consider the most enlightened thoughts. Then choose your path, person by person, each for oneself.
Woe to them that masked me! Woe to them that named me! Woe to them, whose age is ended, whose knowledge of my secrets gave form to the red hunger called Dominion!
When the Wheel has turned and that-which-was becomes again the future, I will hold a great feast at my binding and its hidden seed of ruin.
How I enjoy this tale, uncle. How choice, how rare, the cacophony of voices amassed at your feet. Chirping and squabbling, but always to the greater glory of our growing web.
I love this damn comic 😛
Fear not a masked demon, for truly we are all demons when unmasked.
nice homestuck reference
Maybe we’ve been tricked by the font the title is written in? What if the goal isn’t to kill 6 billion demons, but actually only to kill 6 Biwon demons?
It’s actually a holdover from when once this was a more reader-driven comic where the main character was possessed by a sentient tramp-stamp formed from a god’s eye who was compelled to kill 6 billion demons for whatever reason.
Heheh, Peregrine and Mendicant. I get it.
To every action there is a action that rivals it. This is the law that even YISUN obeyed and defied and deified.
But where was the action that said “NO!” to the desire of dominion? Where did it lay?
WE HAVE BEEN DEFERRED
Wait, wait, wait. That girl in the last two pages.
Is that Noodle Lady?
