The Knightmare Begins

[Wild Eagle]

As Hank approached the chapel he couldn't help but notice the crowd of people outside the door easily fifty people were waiting for Charles to open the doors. Marcus opened the big double doors open saying "Welcome all the preacherman will begin his service shortly." The people flooded into the chapel some of them looking a fair bit rougher than the usually crowd but the more Hank thought bout it the more it seemed Charles had just attracted more people that had issues. Marcus moved through the crowd effortlessly and grabbed Hank by the arm leading him to the confessional. "Okay so what was that about?" Hank asked while pulling his arm away from Marcus. "Charles wished to see you before the mass." Marcus answered while opening the door to the confessional. As Hank entered the confessional he saw Charles in there dressed in his good suit reading off of a datapad. "Hank so good to see you, Sorry I'm just trying to memorise my speech before mass." Charles said while putting away his datapad before continuing to speak "Look I've been doing this job for just shy of six months now and with that I think it is fair to say I can form an opinion based on everything I've heard." Hank nodded in agreement as Charles continued to talk "So many people seem to have been forced into a corner due to the companies in Liberty trying to increase their profit margins, Now I understand this to be a good business practice but I feel there is something more sinister driving this. While the high class of Liberty and the Liberty government for that matter is disgustingly corrupt, I whole heartedly believe it is because of the influence the other houses have in the government of Liberty. I mean even look here at Ames I've spoken to a few people here who don't regularly come to my sermons are Zoners who have left house space due to the huge amount of corruption. However you don't see these Zoners having issues with people being laid off so the people at the top get richer and Liberty itself is a beautiful place which didn't have these problems until we opened the borders to the other houses." Charles finally finished his rant and Hank just stared at him for a minute before responding " Buddy I think you should put the texts from the Xenos down and relax once in a while. Like I get Liberty is corrupt I really do but to think members of the other houses are responsible for that is just crazy. I mean no one in the other houses hold any influence in Liberty and even the immigrants surely aren't taking that many jobs, It's just a corrupt government nothing more you need to not be so xenophobic." With that Hank walked out of the confessional and took a seat in the chapel waiting to hear Charles sermon.

Charles took what Hank had said to heart as he was approaching the podium, maybe Hank was right and it is just Liberty is corrupt having nothing to do with the other houses he kept think as he got to the podium and cleared his throat. "My friends I have some sad news unfortunately times are bleak and there doesn't seem to be even a glimmer of hope for any of us." Charles claimed and cleared his throat again while waiting for the murmurs of the crowd to die down before continuing "The Liberty that we know and love is sick and dying, I know that many of you have left house space but I also know you were born in Liberty and still feel for her deep down. Which is why as a change from my usually sermon I feel compelled to say all this which I feel strongly about you might even say I'm be guided by a greater power to say this." Again waiting for the crowd to settle back down Charles waited a moment before continuing "Now while I said that there isn't any hope that was simply how it is right now but if we all join together I feel we can free Liberty from the grip of the vile corrupt government that is slowly killing her...."

Charles was cut off before being able to finish his sentence by the shouting of a man who was clearly from Kusari space "This is not a sermon. This is nothing short of a recruitment attempt for a terrorist group! It shall not be allowed to continue either." The Kusari man said while throwing his chair at Charles. Marcus acting almost immediately grabbed the man and through him out of the chapel into the corridor. "Preacherman are you alright?" a few men shouted while rushing over to Charles as he slowly stood up, Charles showing that he was fine and gesturing that me was okay resumed his speech "As you can see almost everyone is against us saving Liberty, from the corrupt fatcat attack dogs the LPI throwing people into prison for no reason other than enslaved labour to members of the other houses who seem to want us to suffer for no reason other than their own amusement like that man just then. I say it is time we start to stand up for what we believe rather than just rolling over and accepting the cruel reality forced upon us by the Fatcat politicians looking to fatten their own bank accounts. Now as always I will be available for confession and of course we have soup for all who are hungry, you may go in peace." With that Charles gave a wave and walked down to the confessional.
