          "Kingship... is organised on the same basis as aristocracy: by merit-- either individual value, or birth, or distinguished service, or all these together with a capacity for doing things"

"stand behind me, bishop." the black knight's tone makes it less of a suggestion and more of an order. he is no general in this world, but he wears the same authority regardless. he does not mean it as a way to demean his fellow hero, however--caution is exercised well when one is not clad in steel. "arrows will do no harm to this armor of mine."

     The other’s words are not ones Saias finds offensive or insulting. How could he, when  speaks nothing but the truth? Between an archbishop who has never donned armour-- who has never taken to the front lines during battle-- and a knight covered in it, to the point where very little openings can bee seen from afar, it would be foolish to let him stay where he is. Had they been closer, perhaps the tactician would have voiced a protest or two out of fear of losing someone else who died keep him safe. Instead, Saias simply nods and allows for the other to do as he pleases for now.

          “Very well,”

     Should the situation change, at least more time has been bought for him to react and formulate a plan, no matter how short that may be. To voice that, however, could lower morale, or imply that the archbishop does not believe the Summoner’s strategy to be all that sound.

          “I will do what I can from here. Perhaps arrows may not harm you, but I doubt that is also the case for magic.”
