NOAH
Noah was a little surprised, in all honesty, that Deimos didn't latch on to his idea for strengthening Halo. While he hadn't given any specifics (though he had some in mind), it was unusual for the Sword not to dive headfirst into his militaristic thinking. So, Noah stayed quiet and listened to the people as they went back and forth.
After the arguing seemed to settle, Noah lifted his chin. "I believe that any fealty a region may declare could be...interesting." Red: dangerous. "We've all seen the way that Eirachi kept her grip here through Halo's historical biddings with her. While I firmly believe in the old gods and their care for this world, I'm not sure I see any true reason why we must pledge ourselves to just one." And -- if Noah had any personal say in it -- he wanted it to be Vi. Safrin was the next best option, of course, but his true and strong alignment held with the deity of life himself.

i'd fashioned my own cross
been crushed by its weight
there's no stronger message
than dirt in your face
