A Zen master who was named by a local village girl as the father of her illegitimate child took the accusation in imperturbable fashion with the simple reply, "Is that so?"
Two years later, in a tearful recantation, she admited that a the local blacksmiths son had in fact been responsible, and begged to be reunited with her absent child.
In horror the Abbot sent for the Master who, having been sent down from his monestry in shame, had for two years cared for the child as if it were his own. On hearing the girls sorrowfull confession the Master, handing back the child to it's mother said, "Is that so?"

The truth is a Lion and does not need protection. Once free it will look after itself.
....and the glory of the world becomes less than it was....
'Have we not served you well'
'Of course - you know you have.'
'Then let it end.'
We are the Bloodguard
