Panel 1

Closeup of the Knight's severed helmet/head as he picks it up off the ground

KNIGHT: Well met! A strong hit indeed!

KNIGHT: Now prepare thyself to receive a likewise blow.

Panel 2

Vangel and Jason reel back horrified.

VANGEL: Wait!! What??

VANGEL: That’s not fair!

VANGEL: You tricked me!

Panel 3

The knight places his helmet/head back where it's supposed to be, atop his neck.

KNIGHT: What speaks thou of trickery?

KNIGHT: The rules were plain, yet a killing blow was struck.

KNIGHT: This only fair.

Panel 4

Jason angrily points at his head. Vangel looks terrified as the situation sinks in.

JASON: Bruh! We kinda need our heads.

JASON: I use mine every day!

VANGEL: I-I...

VANGEL: No! I can’t!

VANGEL: I’m not...

VANGEL: I’m not ready!

Panel 5

The knight points at Vangel with his great sword as fallen leaves begin to swirl around him.

KNIGHT: The role of Paladin as liaison between the mystic and mortal realms is sacred.

KNIGHT: They must be trusted by both sides of the veil if peace is to be kept.

KNIGHT: A knight who does not keep her word is no knight at all.

KNIGHT: Still, I shall grant thee reprieve.

KNIGHT: Come to my sanctuary one week hence to receive all that thou has given.

KNIGHT: If thou cannot...

Panel 7

The knight has vanished, leaving a swirl of leaves behind him.

KNIGHT: Thou wilt never be a Paladin.
