The Watchers

Their seat is a mountain compound and their ruling body is the Conclave. The Quest of the Remnant meets them from Kofi's side; The Watchers tells their story from within, until the order splits.

Ward the light. Measure before judgment. Contain before ruin. Let fear serve vigilance, not appetite. Let certainty be earned.
The Vow, The Watchers, Part 1, ch. 1

"The Vow says ward the light. It does not say extinguish it."
Elinam, The Watchers, Part 1, ch. 6
