-Firno to his youngest son Argus

## Early Life

Firno was born on Paektu-Mountain in a time of relative peace, his early days was spent learning the ways of his Father. Spending days philosophizing about the future with his dear friend Savio, who was The Dux of House Strigo at the time just as he was The Dux of House Ignis. Firno was indeed the embodiment of his House, and he bore it with great pride. He excelled at politics and commanding.

## The Institute

As a son of one of the influencing houses on Earth, matched with his intelligence and prowess, Firno was given a lamb in his passage. Firno had always been a man of peace and yet he understood what was going to happen before the Proctor came and instructed them on the matter. It has never been a pleasant memory to Firno, it had to be done, but this only cemented Firno's personally philosophy; No matter the consequences, peace must be upheld. Firno walked out with the Minerva ring on his hand, his opponent was given a fast death. If death is the only way, be done with it fast. Never be ruthless.

Minerva did win that year. Firno was to be thanked, but he did not bathe in the glory. He was not the man who took the glory, even if he was partially to be blamed for their success.
