Bardtalk featuring Lord Inquisitor Seru
Written by Community Member glowsinthedark
From the network that brought you the Stanos Scandal it's Bardtalk.
Seana Marsinger*: Hi, I'm Seana Marsinger and welcome to Bardtalk. Today we have a very special guest all the way from Luclin. The man that single handedly shattered the Combine empire, General Seru!
Seru*: Ahem, General was my title when I was a pawn of the combine. My official title now is Lord Inquisitor Seru.
Seana Marsinger*: Fine, Fine, "Lord Inquisitor" Seru. So Seru, I think that what everyone really wants to know is how does a man as old as you still look so young?

The Rise of the Luminaries A Light For All to Look Upon
Not a lot of records from before Lord Triskian Seru’s reign have surfaced, and some of those that have were damaged and only partially legible. The following collection of missives and letters pertain to the Inquisitorial Guard at the End of the Age of War, from first-hand witnesses.
Lord Inquisitor,
I feel I must offer my resignation, though I do so with great pain, and wish it were not so. I have believed in the higher purity of this city and the rule of law that had provided security and sustenance for us, for as long as I can remember. It filled my spirit with contentment to be a part of the Inquisitorial Guard. Then the Treaty of Recuso was ratified.
We had seen the suffering of others. Our neighbors pain was ours, and all life on this world hung in the balance. The treaty was necessary, and it pleases me that it was agreed upon. So then, why do I write? I pen this because still we cling to the old ways. Still we require our citizens to shun the pains and suffering of certain races. Seems the scars of the great Empire split are still with us.
I have been tasked with presenting the Questions to a citizen by the name of Kurron Redember. I am not sure I can carry out my orders, My Lord. I cannot say I believe in them, any longer. As such, I see no other alternative, I must offer my resignation.

Day 1 --------- Today is a great day, so I shall begin this journal. The High Inquisitor has called for my skilled hand to create for him a set of armor, which cannot be pierced by any weapon. This is to be my last chance to be in good grace with Lord Seru, though I have denounced Katta I assume they can still sense that I miss my family.
