I was blessed to be a very young man (or child) when this order was founded and grew up watching some of the most amazing deaths upon the field. I can only say that I found it profoundly inspiring. To me this was an amazing example of honor and dignity upon the field. When your opponent 'kills' you I have come to personally feel that the quality of the death that you give them shows them a deep respect for their prowess on the field. I will continue to strive to show this personal form of respect to all of my opponents in all tournaments if they manage to best me.
 
As a senior member of this order I am now empowered to make new junior members of the order and I will be watching and hoping to be able to share this wonderful award with people across our great Kingdom.
