HOW || Actionspam

Unlike the grandiose nature of the squiring ceremony each Knight undergoes upon their initial entrance into the Knighthood, the graduation to Full Knight status takes place in a much more intimate affair, between the Knight, their mentor, invited friends, and the members of the sect to which they will be inducted. There's no pompous music, no stolid rank and file, no elaborate march.

Hasmed, Wynn, and Koraith wait up at the front of the room for Finnick to approach them, but the attitude of the ceremony is much more relaxed, full of smiles and light conversation on all sides. Of course, when Wynn speaks, people still hush. It's just how he rolls.

"Sir Finnick Odair, please kneel."

Maybe I just can't shake that I'm not supposed to be here. [He gives Wynn a wry, crooked smile.]

[wynn]

And yet the fact that you are is an opportunity that shouldn't be wasted. You have a chance to cause many more ripples than others.

[He chuckles.] You know just what to say to a guy.

It's an essential part of my work.
