Untill I'm told otherwise from my Lord, I'm pretty sure
that those in the order of Rahn are members of the true
order of Rahn. Noone claimed to have learned anything,
noone claimed to be even close to the perfection this
order strives for - what has been claimed however, is
that the Black Hand or the Fira et Lumina is not the
order of Fire, and therefore the acts of either
organisation should not reflect on the other one,
unless there actually is something achieved by both
together. Up to now, no such teamwork has been taking
place.
Another thing that has been claimed, not necessarily
in the context of Fira et Lumina, is that the order of
Fire and the Path of Rahn is no about being good,
evil, of the light or of the darkness. All those are
merely single aspects of the path of Rahn, of the
path to Perfection, and every member of the order
can decide for him or herself to follow one aspect,
or not. perfection can contain those aspects but
is by no means limited to them. In other words, if
you equal following Rahn to being a Luminary or a
Daru, you only see part of the truth. If you see
only Good and Light in the path of Rahn, you
might try to learn a little more about
Rahn, the Lightbringer, who brought back the
sunlight when Amairgen had darkened it, the Lord
of Fire, Lord of Pain --- The Lord of Perfection.

In any case, I would say the Soulsmith of the order
of Fire has definitely come to a point in his
studies, where he has every right to make certain
claims, and Lord Rahn will certainly take it upon
Himself to correct his follower if need be. Be sure,
it would be made known if any wrong claims had been
made in public. Unless this happens, the Soulsmith is
absolutely right and speaks for the order of Fire.

Sincerely,
