Vern Setser

Truth & Justice

The old man was sitting in the drivers seat of the rusty ole 1973 GMC pickup truck, the barn just in front of the truck was old, built by his great grandfather many years ago. His gaze fixed upon the family crest, an owl with a human skull clutched in its talons, an axe and sword crossed behind the owl. Hüter der Wahrheit on a faded ribbon at the bottom. He had been taught at a young age that those German words mean Keeper of Truth. He had always kept the family oath of Truth and Justice.
