Video Post : un:Crusader08
[ An rather large older man settles before the camera, his face utterly serious. Those who know him usually see him with a huge smile and a ready laugh. They aren't there, which means he means business. He takes a breath and starts ]
With all this talk of dragons coming back from the dead and what we need to do about it, I am wondering. Have we considered how we will protect the people? Should the worst come to pass, we need a way to make sure that the citizens of both cities can flee in a safe and orderly manner. The last thing anyone needs is panic in the streets.
We need an evacuation plan and a place for everyone to go after. For both cities. We need the rulers to insure that such a plan is in place and that the proper support is given to it.
I might have an idea, but I need to know who here knows how fight in a shield wall. Who has shielding magic. How many of us can, even for a few moments time, block an attack to buy time? Because I am proposing that we line an escape route with a shield wall so that the women and the children and the old and the sick and all those that do not wish to or cannot fight can get out safely before everything is burned.
A town can rebuild from ashes. But only if the people survive to do so.
Thank you for your time.

He wishes this conversation were in person. He decides that's as good a place to start as any.]
I wish you were saying this to my face. But...thanks, Reinhardt.
[He takes a breath before continuing. Sappy shit is hard for him, and he's sure it's not what Reinhardt wants, so he tries to keep it focused on just the two of them.]
For being you, despite...or in addition to...everything. I'm glad you're still here and fighting.

You know where to find me, ja? And now you know how I came to be missing an eye. But it was his dying wish that I "be their shield" so I will be. As long as there are people that need a knight and so long as I have breath, I will fight.
[ Even when he can't stand anymore he will. ]
And I am just glad to know that there are other strong and noble warriors that will fight for honor and for the people as well. You said you would stand with me and that makes you one of those warriors. So don't discount yourself, Dylas. You might not be knighted, but in your heart, you know what is right.
So should the dragon come and should we stand on the field of combat, I will count myself fortunate to know I stand next to a warrior like you.

[He just needs to point that out. But continuing on with the rest of the statements, he's still...not sure what to say. Reinhardt has shared something deeply personal with him. Should he share something back? He would, if he was asked to, but...]
I'm not cut out to be a knight, so that's fine. But I don't mind being a warrior, if you think it'll be useful to you. Or a horse warrior. Whatever the situation calls for. Just help me stash some clothes somewhere first, alright?
