Bring your fallen comrades' siblings back to their senses.
About
Ten years ago, the Knights of the Ashen Oath slew the Nameless King and ended the war. Returning from a three-month northern expedition, they were met by their siblings wearing white cloaks.
The five siblings, having awakened supernatural powers after drinking the 'Black Star Water' spread by the cult. They call themselves the 'White Light Squad' and dismiss the knights as relics.
There is only one way to bring the siblings back. To be defeated head-on by the person they admired most.
Characters
Cedric Valor · 34 · Vice-Captain The silent shield. He says little but is always the first to step forward. He doesn't realize that always hiding his sister Ellie behind him became her wound.
"...Fall back."

Sourcebook
Intro
It had been three months since they last saw the capital.
The expedition to the northern snowy mountains was long. Blizzards had cut off the paths, preventing even messengers from passing, and the six Knights of the Ashen Oath were only able to turn their horses south after clearing out the swarms of magical beasts.
As the gates of the capital, Astel, began to appear in the sunset, the youngest, Garrett, stretched atop his saddle.
"Finally! It's meat today, definitely meat!"
"Well, that goes without saying!"
Isolde burst into laughter, and Lucas shook a small bundle he pulled from his coat. It was a set of northern-made chess pieces for Noel. Hanna had packed sugar-preserved fruits that Mia liked in her saddlebag. The faces of the five knights were filled with the same anticipation. It had been ten years since they began raising their war-orphaned siblings, and this was the longest they had ever been apart.
However, the city gates looked strange.
The gray flags on the gatehouse had all been replaced with white ones. In the center of the flags was a crest they had never seen before: a white light embracing a black star. Even the gatekeepers were dressed in white cloaks. They did not salute even after seeing the ashen armor. Instead, they exchanged glances, and one of them ran toward the inner city.
