Kassandra stood before the members of the Eyes of the Dark Nights, a fierce determination in her eyes as she began to speak. Her voice was low and steady, but the emotion behind it was palpable.
"I stand before you today as a member of this organization because of Fein," she began, her eyes scanning the room to ensure that she had everyone's attention. "Fein is not just a master of the sword, or a wielder of powerful magic. He is a man who understands the value of loyalty, and who will do whatever it takes to protect those he cares about."
Kassandra's mind drifted back to the time when she had first met Fein, and the deal that had brought her into his service. Her own kingdom had been at war with a neighboring kingdom for years, and it seemed as though the fighting would never end. Kassandra had been desperate for a solution, and it was then that she met a man in the middle of the war offering her a deal to join an organization that wasn't even founded yet.
