The Dangerous Prophet

---

The enemy of our enemy is not our friend. This is what this war has shown us. While the OFS methods and goals are repugnant and sinful, since they have studied our enemy longer than anyone else, they may have information we can use. Asha is a general, a scientist, and a most accomplished mage. She operates not through the dictates of morality, but through a clear and innovative analysis of the information, she has available. With the knowledge the OFS has obtained on Ahnket, she could devise a strategy to defeat her. I have come to appreciate this approach, as I hope she has learned to appreciate the moral foundation of the Vigil.

Vigil help us! I have heard the rumors that Orphiel's life was a tangled skein upon Fate's dread loom, but to think that he is behind the Order of the Fallen Star sends a chill down my spine. I must meditate upon the omens that I am able to see and examine them for signs of his presence. Is this version of Orphiel his past or his future? Has he reformed, or does he fall further into villainy?
