into the darkness
[attr="class","itdscroll"]It had been several months since Duke Gaspard had fallen to an illness of the lung. Nothing could stop the sickness ravaging his bodies but magic and conventional means helped him through the months but his time had come almost Six days before when the sickness took him from the arms of the living. Alexander had been assigned as the protector of Princess Guinevere during the occasion. He had wished to be apart of the Templar Honor Guard but since the Knight Vigilant was attending he could not lead such a thing. Guarding the Mage Princess seemed like a job for the veteran Templar but he would rather lead the Vigil or not be in it at all. So he was assigned to stand as the princess' Sword and Shield. It had not been discussed with her what would happen if she took the Throne. But the Council had convened almost Sixteen times and come with a impartial vote every time for the next Emperor or Empress. It was tense, Watching the Prince's men eye up the templars and back and forth. They knew if the Chantry strong armed their law and claimed that the Council was using the Anti-Mage population against the Princess that swords would be crossed. The Champions of the Just against the Knights of Legend. Alexander had struck conversation with several Noble's including his siblings. And stood by when the Princess wished to talk to someone. She was a pretty woman. He had been both the Knight in charge and the man who would of wielded the blade if she was possessed. He wore a black doublet with the Orlesian Templar Sigil brooch on his chest showing he was the Knight Commander. Alexander was a handsome man and the Youngest Knight Commander in Thedas, At 24 he had done much for the Order and fought for the Inquisition with valor and skill till he became a Captain and then a Commander. He was recommended for the place by several people within the Inquisition and took it without hesitation.
He worked closely with the Uncle of the Princess and the Brother to the former Emperor. He had denied a place in the running for Emperor. Despite his liking for power Alex would never compromise the order. He had brothers and sisters that he loved more than his own siblings. They were people that had trained under him and raised to the Order beside him. He took council from both Senior Templars and the First Enchanter had more power over the running over the circle. "Princess Guinevere, I am sorry for your loss. Your father was a stern but a good man. I hope you will be able to carry his legacy on." Alexander spoke softly as he took his seat next to her. "But we will speak of his legacy after this feast in the name of your father's legacy." He said as he smiled at her and poured her a goblet of wine for himself before he filled his own.
