Gameplay

Creature — Human Knight

First strike (This creature deals combat damage before creatures without first strike.) Protection from white (This creature can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, or enchanted by anything white.)

Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
