The rolling, verdant hills of France had given way to rolling dunes of sand with not a speck of life visible as far as the eye could see. The heat was also not something Amélie had properly prepared herself for, but as a missionary of the Chevaliers de Lyonesse, she wouldnt show any weakness. So even as sweat dripped down her skin, she remained stoic on her journey, reminding herself that no matter where she went, the same blue sky where God resided would watch over her.

Zion was a sight or sore eyes as the towering walls loomed in the distorting distance, even more so as the divine energy that kept the city cool and livable washed over her. Pouring from the cart along the rest of the recruit, Amélie was quick to gather up her meager belongings. There was little use of material possessions in the Chevaliers de Lyonesse.

Once at the gate, she couldn't help but glare at the guard that halted her. It seemed like the name of the Chevaliers de Lyonesse carried little weight in these foreign lands. Let through, she made sure to shoulder check the brute with enough force to send him stumbling backwards. [color=4766ec]"Je vous montrerais un peu de plaisir... Au bout de ma lance."[/color] She muttered under her breath as she quickly disappeared into the crowd funneling into the city. It was far from the silent, stoic treatment a Chevalier de Lyonesse was known for, but then Amélie had never quite been a textbook example. Not that she did a bad job, she was a rising star after all, but some might consider her a little too... inquisitive about the world outside of France. Which is exactly what brought her here today.

The Chevaliers de Lyonesse were the strong arm of the French church, both a symbol of its military might as it was their enforcers. While not an arm used in open warfare, the Chevaliers de Lyonesse were nonetheless still trained rigorously and had access to the finest arms available. They were the knights in shining army that would pierce the darkness of God's adversaries! 

None of that fame carried over into this foreign land though, and where once people made way at the mere sight of the iconic blue and white garb, here Amélie constantly found herself walking into other people. With that said, she couldnt help but marvel at the strange architecture of the city, a far cry from the ancient city of Lyonesse. This must be the youngest city on the planet, considering it was build specifically around the Abyss.

The order to assemble came as Amélie was simply taking in the sights of the city. Without wasting a second, she hoisted her bag up high and marched her way over towards the staging area. The fifth crusade was about to embark and Amélie would make sure that it would be the last and the light of God would finally be able to shine unimpeded.
