The blond was gripping a little silver plaque in his hand, on which laid two dragons, and a huge green 'M' letter. Under the dragons were three word, written in Latin, saying Sanctimonia Vincet Semper.
Pureté sera toujours conquerir;this was written on the backside of the little plaque, which meant the exact same thing, only, it was written in French, rather than Latin.
The man sighed, as he gripped the badge a bit tighter than before. For him, this was a moment of goodbye, a moment of change, and a moment of sadness. This was where he decided to deviate from a path he was assigned to when he was born, this was the time when he would throw his family's beliefs away.
It felt kind of bittersweet, because while his childhood memories weren't exactly the brightest, it was still home, and for the longest time, it had given him a false sense of security. But all of that was over now, and it while it seemed frightening and a little bit sad, he knew it was the right thing to do.
And so, he buried all his fears and bad memories when he dropped the plaque on the grass and muttered an inaudible spell to which it exploded into a million green and silver pieces.
Soon after, he felt a tiny hand as it grasped his own, and without any remorse, he smiled faintly at the brunette standing next to him. He didn't know what the future held, but he was ready to face it.
