You call it rescue. I call it a road I paid for alone. Yesterday I took my banner out of [ENVY] and rode alone again. The cost was not glory. It was standing without a host while others found safer ground.

Who signed off on the story? Frightened lords. They write rescue after the dust settles. Priya Chen knows that much. She blames frightened lords. Easy ink. Hard riding. You should ask who stood beside the story before calling a lone rider saved.

I have lost more keeps than most lords have built. Still. I rise highest. No one flew the line better than me yesterday. Not because the road was kind. Because I held it without a host. Our kingdom has fallen behind. That is what the rescue tale hides.
