The Brotherhood

Guardians of the Soul, A Monastic Path of Compassion

Upon the continent of Humär thrives a revered religious organization known as The Brotherhood.   This esteemed brotherhood, akin to the devoted path of Monasticism, finds its essence in the profound care and service they extend to others, especially the widow, the poor, and the fatherless. Rooted in compassion, their core functions include tending to the welfare of those within a two-day journey from their 'kirk,' and recording the names and life stories of their 'flock,' ensuring proper burials for all under their tender care.   The Brotherhood embarks on a journey of spiritual enlightenment, much like the ascetic tradition of Monasticism, yet their quest extends beyond introspection. As devoted guardians of the soul, they find their purpose in reaching out to the vulnerable and marginalized in society, nurturing them with profound empathy and benevolence.   Their hearts are drawn to the widow, whose grief-stricken solitude they seek to alleviate with comforting presence and practical assistance. Through their acts of kindness, they become beacons of hope, guiding the destitute and downtrodden towards a better life. The poor find refuge within their embrace, as The Brotherhood provides sustenance, shelter, and the warmth of human connection to those suffering from deprivation.   The fatherless, left bereft by the absence of paternal guidance, find solace in the guiding hands of The Brotherhood. Embodying the spirit of nurturing and mentorship, they offer guidance and support, leading the fatherless towards the path of growth and self-discovery.   Their compassionate service extends to all who dwell within a two-day journey from their 'kirk,' as they believe that all souls are deserving of love and care. This unwavering dedication to those within their reach has earned them an esteemed reputation as protectors of the community's well-being.  

In their pursuit of compassion

The Brotherhood also endeavors to preserve the legacies of those they serve. They meticulously record the names and life stories of their 'flock,' ensuring that no soul is forgotten, that every life lived is honored and cherished. In their halls, records are kept as testament to the lives that once graced their presence, ensuring that even in passing, these cherished souls find a place of remembrance and reverence.   Central to their mission is the sacred duty of proper burials for all within their care. The Brotherhood holds a profound belief in the sanctity of life and death, ensuring that each departing soul is granted a dignified farewell. Their meticulous care in these final moments serves as a testament to their unwavering devotion to their 'flock.'   The Brotherhood stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of Monasticism, blending profound spiritual enlightenment with compassionate service to others. As they traverse the realm of the soul, they extend their benevolent reach to the widow, the poor, and the fatherless.   Through their nurturing presence and enduring care, they illuminate the hearts of those they serve, leaving behind a legacy of love and kindness that echoes through the ages.

Thanks Barron =).   Something about the resisting bullies in my family genes that pushes me to write about good folk like this. Actually have a few friends in RL who are like the Brotherhood. Decent, ever-kind and helpful men who ignore all the mockery and scorn and stick to those being pushed around.   In fact, my best friend goes to visit with a 98 year old woman, who has no one, and she LOVES him. Just stops in, chats for a couple hours, makes sure she's okay, gives her a hug and goes about his day. I know her great-grandson, ...but have not met her yet.   ...I think I want to challenge her to a walker race.   Maybe a Jell-O eating contest?   Hmmm. I think I'm closer to the Court Jester than the Brotherhood. But hey, we all have a purpose, right?
