 '''Wuaoi''': It is not as different as you might think. Do you know who [[Oflovak Rydon]] was?  Obviously he was a [[Fyros]], but do you know anything else?<br />

That will tell you how, during the Great Swarming, he was leading refugees away from the Kitin when [[Elias Tryton]] appeared to him on a hilltop and told him of the [[Rainbow Gates]] and told him further, that he was leading the refugees in the wrong direction.  He turned around and led the refugees to the [[Rainbow Gates|Rainbow Gate]] and safety in the refuge that was prepared.

-He worried about those left behind, those he had been unable to lead to the Gates.  He managed to leave the refuge and navigate his way back to the Old Lands using his knowledge of the stars.  He marked his path and then returned to the [[New Lands]], blazing a trail behind him to let other refugees follow. That was the Path of [[Exodus]], which still allows refugees to escape the [[Kitin]] in the [[Old Lands]] and come to the [[New Lands]].<br />

-Even more important to us, [[Oflovak Rydon]] was the person who first recruited the Homins who pledged to help lead refugees to the [[New Lands]]. Some of those refugees were the founders of what eventually became the Rangers of Atys.  He did not create the structure of the Rangers, nor determine our current missions, nor found our camps, that was for later Homins, but his actions in that alone would be enough to remember him.<br />
+<br />
-Even more, we should always remember that he started life as a simple adventurer and explorer, not as a leader. He turned his back on that life to work to save Hominkind from the Kitin, and then he spent six years of his life to find and mark the Path.  For that reason we honour his memory most when we fight the [[Kitin]] to preserve Hominity here in the New Lands, and we honour it as well when we turn our backs on simple adventures and simple loyalties, and pledge to work to aid all Homins.<br />

 '''Aspirant''': So the Rangers were not involved with the [[Rainbow Gates]]?  I thought they made the [[Rainbow Gates|Rainbow Portals]]  to reach the refuge during the [[Second Swarming]]. <br />
-'''Wuaoi''': No, those were created by a [[Trytonist]] Guild and were not the same sort of thing at all.  The original [[Rainbow Gates|Rainbow Portals]] were either made by [[Elias Tryton]] or simply discovered by him; the records are unclear.  Certainly the Rangers do not know the secret of making them.<br />

 <br />
 '''Aspirant''': [[Oflovak Rydon]] first discovered the Path of [[Exodus]]. Is this the Path that we are expected to preserve, according to the Precept of Preservation?<br />
 '''Wuaoi''': Yes, in part.  Keeping that Path open is a continuous task, since the growth of Atys continually threatens to close it.  It is one that we Rangers undertake on a regular basis. Protection is a part of it, too, protecting refugees when we come upon them and helping them to come here.  But if that were all, then it would be just a job description, not a Precept.
-However, if you consider the Precept in a deeper sense, it is the duty of the Ranger to preserve all paths. We are Pathfinders. The Path back to the original homes of Homins is a long one, and keeping that open is a task that is continuous. It is a one way path, so that we do not upset the Kitin in the [[Old Lands]]. However, keeping other Paths open to Homins through our actions in the [[New Lands]] is just as important, both the physical paths that we use, and the philosophical ones as well, and both of them can be two way paths. <br />

Following this meeting, he turned back and reached Les Arcs-en-Ciel and the safe haven that had been prepared there. But this is only part of the story.
		+
		+
		+	For he soon became concerned about those who remained behind, those he had not been able to lead to the Rainbows. He then left the Refuge and found, thanks to his knowledge of the stars, the path of the Old Lands, which he walked, leaving marks behind him, thus tracing a path that future refugees could easily follow. This way is the Way, the Exodus Way that still allows refugees to flee the Kitins of the Old Lands and reach the New Lands.
		+
		+
		+	Even more important for us, Rangers, [[Oflovak Rydon]] was the one who first recruited homins who swore an oath to help the refugees reach the New Lands. Some of them were the founders of what would later become the Atys Rangers. He did not create the Rangers himself, nor define their mission, nor found their camp - all this was the work of other homins who came after him - but his actions alone justify his being remembered.
		+
		+
		+	Let us never forget, finally, that [[Oflovak Rydon\|Oflovak]] began his life as a simple adventurer and explorer, not as a leader, and that he turned his back on that life to save the Kitins' homins before spending six years tracing and marking the Way. That is why we honour his memory as best we can when we fight the Kitins and protect hominities here in the New Lands, but also when, turning our backs on the facilities offered by this or that Power to selfish adventures, we swear to work to help all the homins.
		+
		+
		+	'''Aspirant''': Oh, so the Rangers have nothing to do with the Rainbows? I thought they had built the Rainbows to reach the Refuge during the second Great Hunger Test. <br />
		+	'''Wuaoi''': No, these are the work of a trytonist guild and were nothing like the first ones. The original Rainbows were built by Elias Tryton... Or, more simply, discovered them: the story is not very clear on this subject. What is certain is that the Rangers do not know the secret of their construction.
		+
		+
		+	'''Aspirant''': [[Oflovak Rydon]] was the first to discover the Path of Exodus. Is this the Way we must preserve, as the Principle of Protection tells us? <br />
		+	'''Wuaoi''': Yes, in part. Keeping this Way open is an endless task because Atys' perpetual growth constantly threatens to make it impractical. This is a task that we Rangers do on a regular basis. Protecting refugees if we find them and helping them to come here is also part of this work and part of the Protection. But if it were limited to that alone, Protection would be nothing more than a simple description of a task, not a Principle. <br />
		+	So let us try to consider the Principle in a deeper sense. We are scouts, «path finders», our duty is to watch over all roads. The path to the homelands is long and keeping it open is a continuous task. This is a one-way street, because we must avoid irritating the kitins of the Old Lands. However, it is equally important to keep open for homins, through our actions in the New Lands, all other paths, both the physical paths we use and the philosophical paths we follow. All these routes can be travelled in both directions.
		+
		+
		+	'''Aspirant''': I see. <br />
		+	'''Wuaoi''': Well, go now and build your skills and reputation. I need some rest.
