I am Sable, quite misunderstood
Please let me explain as I would could and should
I’m both light and dark uniquely my own
There’s no one else like me so I stand alone
Black bleak and drab I seem at first glance
Yet hidden beneath rich colours that dance
I know on the surface I look plain and dull
But my heart is strong with magnetic pull
I give from my heart, show love where I can
I try to be courteous to my fellow man
I believe hugs given best given when warm
That only together do we weather a storm
Deep under each layer like layers of snow
Unfathomable depths difficult to know
And so I am sable look deeper and see
Like sable and layers there’s much more to me

The Guardian Chapter V
Alexander left his Coming of Age ceremony with Cronos and the elders with as many new questions as he had answers for his old questions. Cronos had confirmed his suspicions were correct. Not only was there a link between the Beast Masters and the inhabitants of the Citadel, but it was the Citadel's fault that the Beast Masters existed in the first place. Instead of banishing the law breakers which allowed them to wreak havoc on the rest of humanity, the Citadel elders should have stripped them of their powers before they became too strong. Now Alexander would need to battle the Beast Masters and the Jikininki. It would be difficult for him to forgive the Citadel Elders because their poor decisions led to the deaths of his parents and more than half the planet's human population.
