Not every vow is made in glory. Some are made in the ash and aftermath.

The walls fall. The fire spreads. And still..

Someone must remain.

You don’t stay because it’s safe. You stay because it’s right.

Because if the flame goes out, that’s it.

No stories. No oaths. No one left to save.

It’s a choice most turn from. The kind that doesn’t make it into the songs.

You’ll be called a fool. A relic. A ghost in rusted armor.

But the flame doesn’t need admiration.

It just needs to be kept.

This design captures that moment--

A lone paladin stands in the breach, moon above, fire all around, invaders imminent.

Shield raised. Last hope.

The city burns. But the flame still lives.

Not because it was saved.

Because it was kept.

This isn’t a shirt about heroics. It’s about burden. Choice. Will.

Wearing it says:

“I held the line when no one else would.”
“I stayed when the stories ended.”
“I kept the flame.”

For the players who linger after the fight is over.

For the guardians, the tacticians, the quiet anchors.

For everyone who knows that keeping the fire alive isn’t passive-it’s sacred.

Printed on premium cotton.

Designed for long rests and longer stands.

Part of the What We Hold theme.

File this one with the others- but know it’s different.

It wasn’t forged for glory.

It was made for the ones who stay.

Claim the Relic.
Keep the Flame.
