Fires of Wrath
Fires of Wrath is a Freeblade Knight who took part fighting the Xalan Apostasy, where he famously developed an intense rivalry with the Freeblade Emperor's Voice. It began during the Apostasy's Battle of the Illuminated, when the Saint's Own Imperial Guard Regiment renounced their loyalty to the Apostate armies and rejoined the Imperium's forces to fight against them. While the Emperor's Voice openly accepted their defection, the Fires of Wrath considered all those touched by the Apostasy to be enemies of the God Emperor and considered them traitors still. The Freeblades soon clashed over the issue, as neither was willing to back down and admit their views were wrong. Though neither fell that day, hundreds were killed as they fought and their feud would become a reflection of the Xalan Apostasy and a warning to others of the unwavering principles a Freeblade can possess.[1]
