-Qendroj City-

-Luroka Qendroj-

 

In what had once been the council chambers for the Mask Maker Pulse Vatten and his Guardians, Luroka sat rigid in his seat at the round table. Onua, the hulking Toa of Earth, stood beside him. Two figures sat across from them. One, a figure clad in rusted navy armor, was unfamiliar to Luroka – but the other, a Water Protector wearing armor with the sigil of House Vatten, was all too familiar.

 

“Why are you here?” he asked at last, breaking the silence.

 

“A creature stalks our lands,” the Protector said. “It feasts on every Protector that it finds.”

 

“The Barren is not yours to claim.”

 

The Protector smirked. “We live there, do we not?”

 

After exchanging a wary glance with Onua, Luroka shook his head. “Never mind that. We need more details. We’ve heard a few reports, but nowhere near enough for us to consider risking any action dealing with something that appears content to remain in the Barren… if it exists at all.”

 

“Do you call me a liar?” the Protector asked.

 

Luroka shrugged. “I’m simply reading the situation.”

 

The Protector snarled, pounding their fist onto the table. “I am of House Vatten! I do not lie!”

 

“You gave up your claim to the name of Vatten the moment you made the ludicrous decision to join the Brotherhood of Ata,” Luroka said calmly, noting with satisfaction that the Protector was already trembling with rage. “If it were up to me, Virndrung, I’d strip that sigil from your armor.”

 

“Shut your filthy mouth,” Virndrung spat. “You, who betrayed your kind and left them to be wiped out, who abandoned your home to be blasted into oblivion, would dare to lecture me? I am the last of my house! Who are you to claim me unworthy?”

 

“You may pretend,” Onua rumbled from beside Luroka, “but you are not the last your house.”

 

Virndrung scowled, leaning back in his seat and crossing his arms. “My sister does not count. She swore the vows of the Knights, married the Lightbringer.”

 

“She kept her name,” Onua said. “She keeps to the values of her father, and works for a higher purpose.”

 

“Pulse abandoned House Vatten’s values,” Virndrung said. “For centuries we worked alongside the Skull Warriors, serving Ata’s divine will, until my dear father tried to throw it all away. I am fulfilling House Vatten’s true legacy. I will not repeat his mistakes.”

Everything before was just prelude.

 

Season 3 launches tomorrow.
