Some time after Hartley departs another power armored member of the brotherhood appears flanked by a pair of knight brothers. He is also followed closely by a rather mousy scribe who stands behind the paladin as he takes a seat. The hulking figure folds his his hands as he prepares to speak.
"I regretfully inform this congregation that Senior Paladin Hartley has suffered a nervous breakdown and has been deemed unfit to return. It's a shame that such a promising young paladin was broken by your aggressive strong arm tactics. Your tactics won't work on me as I have been sent here to ensure something gets done and I won't leave until l it is accomplished."
The paladin then shakes his head sadly, "All the Brotherhood has ever done is try to protect humanity from itself so as not to cause another great war. We will continue to take all technology until such a time when humanity is not in danger of trying to build more dangerous weapons. Which will never happen by the way."
"Your goals are similar to the Legion's, no matter how much you deny it we both strive for the same end goal."
