The Silver Roses

The Knighthood:                                                                                                                                                                                   The Order of the Silver Roses is a knightly order based in Watcher's Keep and serving under the command of Grand-master Daos, under sethrien law and in the interest of Sethris and her allies. The Order has been started recently and its numbers are still low, but they pride themselves on the masterwork of their fort , as it is made to withstand all kinds of attacks that would be detrimental to most other walled cities or fortifications. Its layered walls, reinforced inner keeps , large underground rooms are all made to withstand prolonged siege. The engineering of their forts and reinforcing of already existing cities has made them prized defensive planners and their slowly growing numbers mean that soon their order will see active wars and battles. The Void that resides in Watcher's Keep is currently being hold under control by the low number of knights using sethrien ice crystals and black-stone walls ,filling the wound of the earth with a silver mist, that has healing proprieties. The duty known as void-keeping was created for the grand-master of the order as a way to handle any direct work needed to maintain the healing processes of the bedrock, but not all things go well , and the occasional monster wanders out of the cracks , escaping the damned world of the void. Historical records show signs of massive void armies wandering out of larger void cracks, usually led by banished gods or great dragons. One of the more trustworthy creatures of the void are the draconblood, large , dragon-like humanoids who , while at first hostile , eventually understood the need for regulation on void related creatures. To join the order, one must agree to 2 rules, the first being the upholding of a moral code that supports the rights of all beings, no matter of their species , and the second is the upholding of an oath of loyalty. Followed by these 2 is the ritual known as "Silvering", a process that requires a rose and silvering water. To be an official member of the order, one must take a rose and place it in the water, all knights who uphold the 2 rules of the order will observe that their roses will undergo a slow and beautiful process where their petals and eventually the stem turn into a misty silver and grow out from their original
