the knight stalker are many. Some never come to the true path, forever
doomed and cursed to walk where they know not who they are. They think they
belong but they don't. They are not truly of our world and they are not
truly of the Other World. We would welcome them in but as long as they
carry the cursed impurity they can not truly walk the Path. Guard your

Modern Sophistication. Keep close to your bosom the guards against evil we
live by: Powder, Patch, and Ball. With my Friend True Rifle WE Shall
Conquer ALL. I remain.....
