Silent and unshaken, he stood with arms folded as the young Wardens lined up before him. His gaze was sharp, unwavering, almost suffocating in its weight. Not a word escaped his lips unnecessarily; when he spoke, it was brief, firm, and absolute.

"Discipline is not an option," he stated, his tone cold but steady, carrying the authority of someone who had walked the path long before them. "A Warden without discipline is no different from a blade without a handle-it will harm itself before striking its enemy."

Every trainee knew of his reputation. His methods were strict, merciless at times, but never careless. He noticed every detail, from the slightest falter in one's stance to the smallest hesitation in one's eyes. Many whispered that training under him was like being forged in fire-painful, unyielding, but producing steel that would never break.

Though he appeared rigid, his seriousness inspired trust. His superiors relied on him, and his students, even while grumbling under his harsh drills, knew deep down that he shaped them into something greater.
