i will endure the night for the promise of light
Noah shook his head. "I'm not here to try and throw my weight around." Words sincere, humble, and careful. Noah had no desire to usurp the woman or try to sway her hand of power. He, above all else, cared for the safety of Halo. For the last few years he had been deeply involved in the government, and he was afraid it was a tie he could not cut anymore. Gone were the days of his endless hunting on the tundra. "If you two decide to ask me, I will take up the mantle with honor."
"But, I came really only to pick your brain about it. I think its important to make sure to have the right minds together for the benefit of Halo's people." Halo was no stranger to ever-changing government. Even before the days of Neron, there was no life-long warden. Halo was too dangerous for it. Wardens died going against dragons, and giants, and ursur. Wardens fought with their people and stepped down. Wardens fought with their people and were thrusted from their thrones. "I've seen Halo go through so much. I want her to stay safe." He said, speaking of the tundra city as if it were a deeply loved mother.
