Dusting off his coat, Aaban stepped away from the podium. He maneuvered his way over the corpses, chanting words of prayer as he reached Iggy. Now that the battle had come to an end, it was time to move forth. "You remind me of a scripture in the book of Psalms. It said that God will make his messengers winds, his ministers a flaming fire. Then again, you have not the characteristics of a minister, more of those of a child" he stated, putting away his weapon back into the holster in his coat and giving a faint smile. 

He then removed a metal flask from that same coat and poured its clear substance into his hand, after removing his glove of course. With that same water, he cleansed his face of all impurities, blood, dirt, etc., and continued to wait for the group to assemble. It seemed that Iggy was the captain of the group, which in Aaban's opinion, did not make complete sense. Iggy did not meet the requisites God set in the holy bible. It states that an overseer must be above reproach, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money, but Aaban followed this kid for his courage. Yes, sometimes he questioned Iggy's decisions, sometimes he would see Iggy's choices as childlike or incompetent, but overall, Iggy had that spark in his eyes. He had the spark of a great warrior who was in search of peace through unintentional war. He not only fights for his own freedom, but that of others. God is said to not forsake the strong and courageous. He will forever be with you, do not fear of be in dread of the darkness; these were his teachings. 

"From here our path will only get darker, but through faith God's light will show us the way. But at times, though God is always at our sides, darkness prevails. I do hope you have a plan Iggy Dragneel, for if not, I only see despair in our near future. If not, I will condemn you unworthy of leading this union. Jesus Christ was a disciple of our Lord, for he sought out God's vision of the future. I know you seek to vanquish this darkness that compels us, but if your vision is clouded beforehand, you are limited to your own sight. Therefore, what is the next step, remember that the heart of man plans his way, but tis the Lord who establishes his steps." 

To many, Aaban seemed to be a little over the top with his sentence structure and way of speaking, but to those of the church and religion, he was a genius and uprising disciple of the teaching of his Lord. He could have been a great minister if the darkness had not overcame the region. He could have lived a life of harmony and peace as he taught others the way of the almighty father. Mankind became inspired by the sinful ways of Lucifer, they've fallen in his grasp as they searched for what only God himself could provide.
