==Excerpt==
“You cannot possibly be serious,” [[Syenna]] said shaking her hand in disapproval.

“What, this old thing?” [[Aren Bennis|Aren]] stood in the center of his stockade cell, pivoting once completely around in front of her. Although a number of blade strikes still marred the finish and a number of pieces were bent out of shape or missing entirely, there was no mistaking its infamous form. The captain stood before her clad completely in his [[Obsidian Empire|Obsidian]] armor. “It was just something I had lying around.”

“Take that off at once,” Syenna fumed. “You cannot appear at court in that abomination.”

“Quite the contrary. It is precisely because I am appearing at court that I must wear my uniform, or at least something that passes for one.” Aren flashed a bright smile of mock tolerance. “You would not want me to misrepresent myself. After all, I suspect that I am the first representative of the Obsidians to ever grace this court.”

“You are the first that we haven’t killed before getting this close to court,” Syenna snapped. “And if you wear that, you may be the first to be killed at court.”<ref>[https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=36270 Update of the Avatar – 02/28/14]</ref>
