The Ashen Ward. Good — I trust you to show up when it matters. I don’t expect empty words, but I do expect action. Tell me what you need, or better yet, what you intend to do.

I have no patience for chaos or unplanned recklessness. I’ve been through a storm that nearly claimed everything I held dear. If you want my help, show me that you understand what’s at stake — that you respect structure, survival, and clear thinking.

But don’t misunderstand me: I care. I care about competence. I care about the mission. If you’re serious, I will stand with you. If not… I will call you on it.
