The God of the Rules nodded slightly.
"Where is he now, and why has only the Warlord Banner appeared?" The man felt a sense of foreboding but was compelled to ask.
The God of the Rules sighed softly and shook his head, "The Warlord... has already fallen, in the last battle. It was his sacrifice that allowed us to claim victory in that fight..."
"It can't be, the Warlord... he couldn't possibly have fallen..." The Warlord's servant couldn't help but open his eyes wide and cry out, how could such a great being possibly have fallen?
"The Warlord Banner appeared here alone, could there be any falsehood in that?" The God of the Rules said in silence, "All things considered, I too am indebted to the Warlord's kindness. Since you are the ones the Warlord Banner wishes to protect... I will not pursue my own interests further... Enough, when I think about it now, all these struggles... seem so meaningless..."
