The Executioner.
In the court of the Head Priests, there are six paragons who are granted the power to serve the incarnation of Balangol;
The Lord, the Guardian, the Seer, the Songstress, the Keeper, and the Fool.
The Lord is the symbol of authority, the Guardian is the spear and the shield. The Seer is the eyes that see all, and the Songstress is the muse of death, with divine melodies that lead to the grave. The Keeper is the hammer and anvil.
But the Fool...
The Fool is a Fool. A being entangled in the threats of fate, made to dance like a puppet in a divine comedy played out by the gods.
However, the fool is also a special, rare card that can be dealt. Despite looking like all the others, it is also special. And if used in the right moment, then the tide of any battle could turn.
Duke Blackwater stared into empty space for a moment.
