You’ve come of age, a little bird now fully plumed.&lt;br /&gt;

           Little Swallow, Little Swallow&lt;br /&gt;
           Little Swallow, Little Swallow&lt;br /&gt;
Break of day starts your journey, through the lands you will go.&lt;br /&gt;
There may be some danger, but from its passing you will grow.&lt;br /&gt;

Never drink whiskey from a Krolvin with blue hair.&lt;br /&gt;
And beware of the Dhe’nar that can do naught but stare.&lt;br /&gt;
            Remember this, my Little Swallow&lt;br /&gt;
            Our words to guide, but will you follow?&lt;br /&gt;
Just listen to the Halflings, for they have the biggest hearts.&lt;br /&gt;
But stand clear of the Faendryl, masters of the darkest arts.&lt;br /&gt;
             Little Swallow, Little Swallow&lt;br /&gt;
             Wisdom we give, but will you follow?&lt;br /&gt;
Grease will be upon you, if a gnome you should befriend,&lt;br /&gt;
Be wary of the Nalfein, for that’s a tragic, deadly end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But always remember…&lt;br /&gt;

All we wish for you are…&lt;br /&gt;

Of humans we are split, they are the great mystery.&lt;br /&gt;
But remember Alandalor, from your history.&lt;br /&gt;
             Dear Swallow, of this you must decide.&lt;br /&gt;
             Please use these words as your true guide.&lt;br /&gt;
The ways of the Erithi can bring tranquility.&lt;br /&gt;
Guidance from the Giantkin will teach virility.&lt;br /&gt;
             Dear Swallow, of this you must decide.&lt;br /&gt;
             Please use these words as your true guide.&lt;br /&gt;
Father Stone can guide you, through the tunnels of the Dwarves&lt;br /&gt;
Mother Earth with cradle you when you’ve got shaken nerves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But child, remember…&lt;br /&gt;

Your Father would ask you to not wear the Winged-Ones clothes.&lt;br /&gt;
Your mother would ask you to find peace in glades and meadows.&lt;br /&gt;
            These words, Little One, are our gift.&lt;br /&gt;
             Let them save you, if you are adrift.&lt;br /&gt;
Your Uncles reminds you to wear boots in the Vipershroud.&lt;br /&gt;
Your Aunts reminds you that you are Sylvan and should be proud.&lt;br /&gt;
             These words, Little One, are our gift.&lt;br /&gt;
             Let them save you, if you are adrift.&lt;br /&gt;
We elders wish you swiftness, safe journeys and good travels.&lt;br /&gt;
Remember all your teachings, you are strong and fragile.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But child, remember that…&lt;br /&gt;

Autumn leaves are burning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Past the Cairnfang river, around the bubbling bend –&lt;br /&gt;
Nature’s breath is blowing, a chilling breeze it sends.&lt;br /&gt;
Through the woods it passes with hues it lends.&lt;br /&gt;
And by kissing leaves, rainbow’s palate Nature blends.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Passing through the lands these fickle winds of change-&lt;br /&gt;
Take a winding path, from the Dragonspine they range.&lt;br /&gt;
Their tickling breath predicted and nothing quite so strange –&lt;br /&gt;
As Summer’s kiss and Winter’s tryst, an annual exchange!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Falling&lt;br /&gt;
	Falling&lt;br /&gt;

Autumn leaves are burning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Brother Summer dances, a grin upon his lips.&lt;br /&gt;
Sister Winter dances with scarves upon her hips.&lt;br /&gt;
As they play, across their land, they traipse and trip –&lt;br /&gt;
Bringing verdant lands, a colorful Autumn eclipse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Merry laughter trickles across the painted leaves –&lt;br /&gt;
Soon summer fades away faster than you perceive.&lt;br /&gt;
Yet chilling winter winds should not lead you to grieve - &lt;br /&gt;
They predict toymakers for those that still believe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Falling&lt;br /&gt;
	Falling&lt;br /&gt;
		Falling&lt;br /&gt;
Twisting leaves are turning.&lt;br /&gt;
Falling&lt;br /&gt;
	Falling&lt;br /&gt;
		Falling&lt;br /&gt;
Autumn leaves are burning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the last leaf tumbles from their bowing catches -&lt;br /&gt;
Tighten up your windows, batten down your hatches -&lt;br /&gt;
And watch Winter’s snow as to the land it latches –&lt;br /&gt;
Clinging to once green and sunny summer patches.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
When the leaves are gone, think not that aught’s amiss -&lt;br /&gt;
Only Winter’s slumber, not some cold dark abyss.&lt;br /&gt;
In the icy nights, warm memories still exist –&lt;br /&gt;
Of the gold rays of Phoen’s Autumn good-bye kiss.&lt;br /&gt;

Tuilinneth Yridhremben was raised by someone she calls Nonna, a grandmother within the rovers of the Lassaran D&#039;ahranal.  It is unclear if this is an honorific or if she is truly Tuilinnneth&#039;s grandmother.  She expresses a great deal of respect to the woman and credits her for her wandering closer to &#039;civilized&#039; lands as part of her rites of passage into adulthood.  Though still young by sylvan standards, Tuilinneth displays a mixture of naivety and wisdom that are at times at odds with one another.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her nickname is Little Sparrow, though she does not share how she came by it or why.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A mustachioed swift follows her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Appearance==&lt;br /&gt;
You see Tuilinneth Yridhremben the Rover.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be a Sylvankind of the Lassaran D&#039;ahranal.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She is shorter than average.  She appears to be very young.  She has almond-shaped jade green eyes and soft, creamy white skin.  She has very long, copper-tinged ginger hair woven with a multitude of tiny looping lapis-beaded braids and a cobalt blue leather tricorne displaying a trio of iridescent fairy wren feathers worn at a jaunty angle.  She has a dainty face, a small nose and slightly upswept pointed ears.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She has a pair of lapis lazuli earbobs set along the slender tips of her pointed ears.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She is holding a white silk journal in her right hand.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a braided silk-strung orb, a frayed broadcloth cloak with tone-on-tone feather patterns, a white birch-boned vest over an off-shoulder saffron chainsil tunic triple-banded from bicep to wrist in lapis ribbon, some feather-embossed leather brigandine accented with indigo lacings, a golden topaz studded copper armband, some spiked silvery kidskin handwraps painted with indigo blossoms, a lapis and white birch belt, a cord-strung chainsil coin purse, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a pair of bloused cornflower blue pantaloons with saffron cuffs, and a pair of reinforced kidskin sandals with indigo blue bindings.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I found myself back in Solhaven Bay,&lt;br /&gt;
Went over the bridge and sat on the quay,&lt;br /&gt;
Then looked at my boots with their soles worn away,&lt;br /&gt;
My mind wandering as I picked at the fray. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I’d traveled so far from this loving place.&lt;br /&gt;
I’d moved beyond the snow of Ice Mule Trace.&lt;br /&gt;
Broken inside, with guilt written on my face,&lt;br /&gt;
And removed myself from the Elanthian race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From demons and lovers my feet had run,&lt;br /&gt;
I hurt inside and felt that I was shunned,&lt;br /&gt;
Because of the deeds that I’d gotten done,&lt;br /&gt;
But even in darkness, I longed for the sun. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now I found myself back in Solhaven Bay,&lt;br /&gt;
I moved from my perch on that lonely quay,&lt;br /&gt;
Walked the streets my memories to allay,&lt;br /&gt;
And wondered if maybe this time I could stay. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nothing much changes in Solhaven Bay,&lt;br /&gt;
Not sounds, or smells, or shells or the Grey,&lt;br /&gt;
Walking brought to mind those bright golden days,&lt;br /&gt;
When hot summer nights went by with a daze. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From alley to temple and both archways,&lt;br /&gt;
The cobble and the mortar always stays,&lt;br /&gt;
And the tea is the same in the familiar cafes.&lt;br /&gt;
As I moved about town not an eyebrow was raised.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I looked at the faces and some were the same,&lt;br /&gt;
Easy laughter and smiles, no words of blame,&lt;br /&gt;
And hope crept in, my sad heart it’s to claim,&lt;br /&gt;
For refueling fires was not part of my aim.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Market from memory lit up with banter,&lt;br /&gt;
From pious invoker to laughing enchanter,&lt;br /&gt;
And even a pair of Hathlyn ranters,&lt;br /&gt;
Whose jabs I largely left unanswered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From Mabel that was stooped with age and frail,&lt;br /&gt;
To the sailor too drunk to be let near a sail,&lt;br /&gt;
And the wishes that hoped I was still hail,&lt;br /&gt;
I began to relax and the sweet sea air inhale.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It wasn’t as bad as I feared and had thought,&lt;br /&gt;
My stomach was easing and gone was the knot,&lt;br /&gt;
The fear was leaving with which I’d been fraught,&lt;br /&gt;
And no one seemed to remember the battles I’d fought. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh, I found myself back in Solhaven Bay,&lt;br /&gt;
Gone were the clouds of my yesterdays,&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I think this time that I just might stay,&lt;br /&gt;
Back in my home of sweet Solhaven Bay.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
Moonlight cast its silvery glow upon the window pane and brought with it a light zephyr that set the window sheers to fluttering.  The cooler air was welcome to the half-elf that tilted her head against the smooth wooden pane, her wild hair clinging to the surrounding fabric.  At her side was the ever-present mastiff, his front paws upon the window’s ledge and his chin rested between them.  His tail would wag every once in a while when he caught sight of something in the yard beyond, but otherwise, he was silent.  She toyed with the tufts of fur near his ears, her fingers lightly playing with the folds there and occasionally flipping the ear up onto his head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was feeling pensive tonight.  It had been months since her last bout of mania, which troubled her slightly and made her wonder, once again, if perhaps Zelia had abandoned her and this was her new life, her new way of living.  The upside of the lack of manic moments was that there hadn’t been the corresponding fall into despondency in some time either.  It wasn’t an open wound anymore, it was something she could poke at and analyze.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the years since the changing of her life, she’d seen very little of her brothers but she remembered the night that she’d received Drigore’s forgiveness and would wear it like a badge in her sorrow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I’m sorry. She had said to him.  And before she could say more, he kissed her on the forehead and left her side.  He didn’t need to say more.  Fleckle and Ghrym were gone, no one knew where and the heartbreak of their departure had long ago been healed.  The last she had seen of Nyrithorn had been the night that she gave up her vambraces and moved to the Nations.  He had been true to his word and removed them from her so completely that she’d not been able to find him for a very long time.  But then, she’d put a mountain between herself and them just so that she could withdraw from the darkness that was seeking to steal her soul.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her Elf was her constant companion during those first harrowing nights and nearly every day beyond that, except on the rare occasion that he had business and she could not follow him.  And they had traveled beyond the borders of the places she had known.  Their feet had carried them everywhere that the land could lead them and sometimes by boat.  She had always enjoyed it but always asked that they never travel to two places: The Sand of Fire and Solhaven.  She had mastered the elven language under his tutelage, her accent nearly evaporating over the time they’d spent together and her knowledge of the cultures of Elanthia had exploded.  His travels had taken him to so many places, his business dealings requiring that he honor so many different customs, and through it all he had taught her everything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the years passed, she became accustomed to wearing sage green robes and bloused pants with sandals.  Her weapons were only needed on the roads and she carried only a single dagger on her while indoors; even forgoing it sometimes when they were alone in their home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Their home... she mused.  It truly was their home now.  He had opened it to her when she was wounded and in need of shelter, but left it open to her all these years.  They had never formalized their relationship, there was no need.  Each of them accepted what they had for what it was, or at least she had.  This was home, this was a sanctuary, and it was hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But now she stood at the window, watching the moonlight on the grass and she thought of another home.  The thought of it was so strong that she had taken her old clothing from their storage bin and donned them.  Her viridian and copper vest lay over the linen tunic, the old copper belt clung to her narrow hips, and her many strapped trousers were accented by her hidden and unhidden sheaths.  Glancing at the corner, her fingers toying with the key that hung around her neck, she stared at the boots and wondered if today would be the day that she put them on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was a familiar longing.  One that she had thought was long dormant and that perhaps she’d never feel again.  If she closed her eyes and tilted her head just right, she could hear the gulls and smell salt in the air.  If the breeze flowed just right over her skin, then it almost felt like it was coming off the bay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She’d attempted to puzzle out the sudden return of the yearning.  What made her long for that far-off place, what made her long for those old familiar faces, but even more importantly, what stopped her from ever wearing those silly boots and going back?  Back to ‘Haven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chewing on her tongue, she played the scenes over in her mind.  Who would be there?  What if no one remembered her?  Worse, what if they all remembered her?  What if they hated her, hated that she’d left so completely, or worse that she’d not stayed gone?  What if they wished she’d not returned?  The questions swirled in her head and she felt the pull of despondency once more, that tug like an undertow threatening to pull her down into the depths.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mastiff nudged her, forcing her unfocused eyes to fall upon his chocolate brown gaze, and she smiled.  No, today was not the day but perhaps soon.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Charna2.jpg|thumb|Charna as rendered by [[Tymelorde]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Appearance==&lt;br /&gt;
You see Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be a [[Half-Elf | Half-Elf]] from [[Talador | Talador]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.  She has shoulder length, shaggy rust-red hair plaited into two braids with some soft viridian ribbons woven through them.  She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a moonstone-set translucent crystal, an antique golden key hung on a black silk cord, a fur-lined viridian wool cloak, a leaf-trimmed soft viridian houppelande, a pair of simple copper armbands, a series of slender linden bangles set with sea glass cabochons, a crystal-set etched silver ring, a cinctured coppery leather belt, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a small black suede back sheath, and a pair of soft elk hide ankle-boots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.

She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a moonstone-set translucent crystal, an antique golden key hung on a black silk cord, a fur-lined viridian wool cloak, a leaf-trimmed soft viridian houppelande, a pair of simple copper armbands, a series of slender linden bangles set with sea glass cabochons, a crystal-set etched silver ring, a cinctured coppery leather belt, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a small black suede back sheath, and a pair of soft elk hide ankle-boots.&lt;br /&gt;

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;JADE123: /* Schedule for the Allies of the Grey */&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Formerly known as The Gypsy Troupe, the [[Allies of the Grey]] was created in 5099 at the end of an event at [[Willow Hall]] when the wandering gypsy Darlita found a band of adventures with the Gift of scrying.  Impressed with their talents, she founded the group and joined them together in a bond that would span years.  Their numbers had at one point swelled, and then at other times diminished but many of them still believe in the Gypsy Darlita&#039;s ways and use her lovely devices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allies of Today==&lt;br /&gt;
Created under the Player Run Organization system, the Allies of the Grey flourishes by offering Fortune Telling Services to adventurers during festivals and events.  Fortune Telling, however, is not their only talent as they also offer Constellation Classes, Translation Classes, and sell Scrying Devices through their shop Celestial Wanderings in Solhaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Schedule for the Allies of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Upcoming Events&#039;&#039;&#039; will be posted here.  Should you wish to request a class, festival presence, or private divination, please contact us at &#039;&#039;&#039;alliesofthegrey@gmail.com&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gazing into the Future&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Date:&#039;&#039;&#039; 7/29/23 at 7pm ET &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Location:&#039;&#039;&#039; Haven of the Grey, in Solhaven &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;	&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Details:&#039;&#039;&#039; Come join the Allies of the Grey at the Solhaven Seafarer&#039;s festival as they dive into the world of scrying and foretell your future. Members will work with each individual that arrives on a first come, first seen basis and provide basic divination services using their preferred method of divination. Some members may even ask you to pick your choice of methods that could range from gnomic runes, halfling slats, scrying crystal, and more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Symbols of the Order ==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Allies of the Grey ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Allies of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; are broken into two subgroups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Oracles of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the seers, sakers, and diviners of the order.&amp;lt;BR&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Guardians of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the people that guard the Oracles as the path of neutrality can make an Oracle a target to those that decide to live in either the Light or the Dark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oath of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to respect the gift of foresight and the Arkati who granted it to us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to revere and obey the laws and customs of whatever town or region we are in, and to incite respect and reverence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow, by our present words and by our future actions, to render Elanthia not less but better and more beautiful than it was before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;All these things we do freely swear, in the name of whatever each one of us holds sacred in his or her heart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--Adapted by [[Nofret Hrist]] from the oath taken by the young men of Athens at the time of Pericles (5th-century B.C.E.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenants of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night in our distant past, the (formerly known as) Gypsies gathered together in Lady Anghosina&#039;s House in Wehnimer&#039;s Landing for the first time.  Looking around at all of those gathered there, we knew we had found a home for our beloved talents. To preserve the unity we felt we set the task of creating tenants that would match the Directive we all felt. Lady Nofret was the one to formulate them for us and to this day they still stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Our Directive&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The Gypsies of Elanthia are a group of players that share a common talent, we foretell the future. Most of us have been doing this in our lives both in and out of the lands. We have endeavored to bring this joyous talent to you for the purpose of entertainment and enjoyment only. We are under the guidance of Darlita but are by no means favored by her. We rent a wagon to bring these talents to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenets of an Oracle of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
(the Gypsy title is now called oracles)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the Oracles of the Grey, have banded together for the purpose of offering our skills to the people of Elanthia, so that they may if they choose, learn what they can about what the Fates have in store for them. We, each of us, offer what skill and knowledge we each possess without regard to profession or race, seeking only to serve the greater whole as we wander the Lands of Elanthia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Admittance to our band requires much of the person who would choose to join us, as we feel the whole is served best by those truly dedicated to their art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we are associated with Madame Darlita, we pride ourselves on being able to maintain and practice our arts without undue assistance. We hone our skills to such point as we are able to read fortunes anywhere in the Lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, we set down the following tenets for ourselves:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We exist to offer our skills and will not be unduly rude to anyone desiring our services. Those waiting patiently for their turn will be treated with kindness and consideration. Any outright rudeness by an Oracle of the Grey to a client will be cause for review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will not turn away any client, although a client may choose to ask a particular member to tell a fortune should there be more than one oracle in the room at any one time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will accept tips for our services, realizing that the wealth of individuals vary widely. We will not be rude to a person because they do not tip as much as the next may.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect the skills of our brethren gypsies and not publicly contradict an interpretation of a fortune that is given by another of our band, for each of us has our own special gift. If advice is asked for in interpretation, it may be given publicly or privately as the circumstance dictate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect that our brethren have scheduled a time for telling fortunes and will not attempt to read fortunes ourselves unless invited by the member who has scheduled that slot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will strive to maintain our characters and not needlessly chatter aloud about other world concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will, to the best of our ability, strive to be present for meetings and be on time for events. Repeated failure to inform the chair of a meeting or event that one cannot attend may cause a review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We understand that our positions and participation are voluntary, however, communication is vital to our plans and if otherworldly concerns keep us from our troupe it is only polite to inform the rest of our dilemma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will maintain what is discussed amongst ourselves, between ourselves, realizing that because of the nature of magic and because we respect the right of each member to their opinion, confidentiality is required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will agree that any fortune-telling items granted by Madame Darlita are a privilege and not a right. We also realize that Madame Darlita keys the magic of such items to each of us and attempts to give away or sell such items will cause them to crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will use such items ONLY during scheduled events. Use of such items outside events is strictly prohibited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We agree to pay Madame Darlita ten percent of our tips for the use of her wagon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Prospective Members:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A prospective member will read, understand, and follow the tenets we set down here:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member must demonstrate the following traits: skill in fortune-telling, courtesy, patience, and consideration for all people regardless of profession or race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member shall be interviewed by at least two Allies and demonstrate a method or methods of fortune-telling. The proposed new member may use any items suited to fortune-telling that they wish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Examples of items include, but are not limited to, such things as runes, cards, sticks, orbs, tea leaves, bones, or crystals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of Oracle member availability to be present in-lands, it will also be acceptable for one member to log an interview and present it via e-scroll to all other members. With an Oracle vote, the prospective member may be granted an apprenticeship in the band. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member, upon demonstration of such skills and temperament will gain the title Apprentice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will be added to the general mailing list and receive missives concerning meetings and fortune-telling events. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will tell fortunes at least two events under the guidance of a member Ally so that they can be evaluated and given advice as necessary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Once the Apprentice has demonstrated skill with handling clients and skill with telling fortunes, he or she will be voted on by the Oracles and told the results of the vote with all due haste. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Voting may either happen in-Lands or via e-scroll. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If two Oracles state and give good evidence why either a proposed new member or existent Apprentice should not be admitted then their application will be terminated. The proposed new member or Apprentice may reapply after six months if they so choose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An Apprentice who is voted into the Oracles of the Grey is eligible for any item Madame Darlita may choose to supply. (depreciated as Madame Darlita has left the lands.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allly Judges&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If at any time there is substantiated cause for concern about any Oracle member&#039;s actions a review panel of three Oracle judges will be gathered to rend a verdict on the particular case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The members of the panel will rotate their positions amongst the total members of the troupe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allies of the Grey Meetings&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Enormous wings spread from the back of the body to arch in a downward sweep that brushes the long, sinuous lion’s tail as it encircles a cat’s-eye crystal ball. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Formerly known as The Gypsy Troupe, the [[Allies of the Grey]] was created in 5099 at the end of an event at [[Willow Hall]] when the wandering gypsy Darlita found a band of adventures with the Gift of scrying.  Impressed with their talents, she founded the group and joined them together in a bond that would span years.  Their numbers had at one point swelled, and then at other times diminished but many of them still believe in the Gypsy Darlita&#039;s ways and use her lovely devices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allies of Today==&lt;br /&gt;
Created under the Player Run Organization system, the Allies of the Grey flourishes by offering Fortune Telling Services to adventurers during festivals and events.  Fortune Telling, however, is not their only talent as they also offer Constellation Classes, Translation Classes, and sell Scrying Devices through their shop Celestial Wanderings in Solhaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

During the cold winter months, life trapped within the confines of our home stifles our imaginations and leaves us craving for the open sky.

== Allies of the Grey ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Allies of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; are broken into two subgroups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Oracles of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the seers, sakers, and diviners of the order.&amp;lt;BR&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Guardians of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the people that guard the Oracles as the path of neutrality can make an Oracle a target to those that decide to live in either the Light or the Dark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oath of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to respect the gift of foresight and the Arkati who granted it to us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to revere and obey the laws and customs of whatever town or region we are in, and to incite respect and reverence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow, by our present words and by our future actions, to render Elanthia not less but better and more beautiful than it was before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;All these things we do freely swear, in the name of whatever each one of us holds sacred in his or her heart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--Adapted by [[Nofret Hrist]] from the oath taken by the young men of Athens at the time of Pericles (5th-century B.C.E.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenants of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night in our distant past, the (formerly known as) Gypsies gathered together in Lady Anghosina&#039;s House in Wehnimer&#039;s Landing for the first time.  Looking around at all of those gathered there, we knew we had found a home for our beloved talents. To preserve the unity we felt we set the task of creating tenants that would match the Directive we all felt. Lady Nofret was the one to formulate them for us and to this day they still stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Our Directive&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The Gypsies of Elanthia are a group of players that share a common talent, we foretell the future. Most of us have been doing this in our lives both in and out of the lands. We have endeavored to bring this joyous talent to you for the purpose of entertainment and enjoyment only. We are under the guidance of Darlita but are by no means favored by her. We rent a wagon to bring these talents to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenets of an Oracle of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
(the Gypsy title is now called oracles)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the Oracles of the Grey, have banded together for the purpose of offering our skills to the people of Elanthia, so that they may if they choose, learn what they can about what the Fates have in store for them. We, each of us, offer what skill and knowledge we each possess without regard to profession or race, seeking only to serve the greater whole as we wander the Lands of Elanthia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Admittance to our band requires much of the person who would choose to join us, as we feel the whole is served best by those truly dedicated to their art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we are associated with Madame Darlita, we pride ourselves on being able to maintain and practice our arts without undue assistance. We hone our skills to such point as we are able to read fortunes anywhere in the Lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, we set down the following tenets for ourselves:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We exist to offer our skills and will not be unduly rude to anyone desiring our services. Those waiting patiently for their turn will be treated with kindness and consideration. Any outright rudeness by an Oracle of the Grey to a client will be cause for review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will not turn away any client, although a client may choose to ask a particular member to tell a fortune should there be more than one oracle in the room at any one time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will accept tips for our services, realizing that the wealth of individuals vary widely. We will not be rude to a person because they do not tip as much as the next may.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect the skills of our brethren gypsies and not publicly contradict an interpretation of a fortune that is given by another of our band, for each of us has our own special gift. If advice is asked for in interpretation, it may be given publicly or privately as the circumstance dictate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect that our brethren have scheduled a time for telling fortunes and will not attempt to read fortunes ourselves unless invited by the member who has scheduled that slot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will strive to maintain our characters and not needlessly chatter aloud about other world concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will, to the best of our ability, strive to be present for meetings and be on time for events. Repeated failure to inform the chair of a meeting or event that one cannot attend may cause a review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We understand that our positions and participation are voluntary, however, communication is vital to our plans and if otherworldly concerns keep us from our troupe it is only polite to inform the rest of our dilemma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will maintain what is discussed amongst ourselves, between ourselves, realizing that because of the nature of magic and because we respect the right of each member to their opinion, confidentiality is required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will agree that any fortune-telling items granted by Madame Darlita are a privilege and not a right. We also realize that Madame Darlita keys the magic of such items to each of us and attempts to give away or sell such items will cause them to crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will use such items ONLY during scheduled events. Use of such items outside events is strictly prohibited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We agree to pay Madame Darlita ten percent of our tips for the use of her wagon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Prospective Members:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A prospective member will read, understand, and follow the tenets we set down here:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member must demonstrate the following traits: skill in fortune-telling, courtesy, patience, and consideration for all people regardless of profession or race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member shall be interviewed by at least two Allies and demonstrate a method or methods of fortune-telling. The proposed new member may use any items suited to fortune-telling that they wish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Examples of items include, but are not limited to, such things as runes, cards, sticks, orbs, tea leaves, bones, or crystals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of Oracle member availability to be present in-lands, it will also be acceptable for one member to log an interview and present it via e-scroll to all other members. With an Oracle vote, the prospective member may be granted an apprenticeship in the band. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member, upon demonstration of such skills and temperament will gain the title Apprentice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will be added to the general mailing list and receive missives concerning meetings and fortune-telling events. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will tell fortunes at least two events under the guidance of a member Ally so that they can be evaluated and given advice as necessary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Once the Apprentice has demonstrated skill with handling clients and skill with telling fortunes, he or she will be voted on by the Oracles and told the results of the vote with all due haste. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Voting may either happen in-Lands or via e-scroll. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If two Oracles state and give good evidence why either a proposed new member or existent Apprentice should not be admitted then their application will be terminated. The proposed new member or Apprentice may reapply after six months if they so choose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An Apprentice who is voted into the Oracles of the Grey is eligible for any item Madame Darlita may choose to supply. (depreciated as Madame Darlita has left the lands.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allly Judges&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If at any time there is substantiated cause for concern about any Oracle member&#039;s actions a review panel of three Oracle judges will be gathered to rend a verdict on the particular case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The members of the panel will rotate their positions amongst the total members of the troupe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allies of the Grey Meetings&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Any full member of the Allies of the Grey may call a meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*General meetings will be announced at least a week before they will take place and a reminder notice sent to all the day before the meeting will take place&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Emergency meetings may be called by any member, realizing that because of short notice not all may be able to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Business of the Allies of the Grey may be discussed and settled via e-scroll due to the varied schedules of troupe members.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;quot;We vow to respect the gift of foresight and the Arkati who granted it to us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to revere and obey the laws and customs of whatever town or region we are in, and to incite respect and reverence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow, by our present words and by our future actions, to render Elanthia not less but better and more beautiful than it was before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;All these things we do freely swear, in the name of whatever each one of us holds sacred in his or her heart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--Adapted by [[Nofret Hrist]] from the oath taken by the young men of Athens at the time of Pericles (5th-century B.C.E.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenants of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night in our distant past, the (formerly known as) Gypsies gathered together in Lady Anghosina&#039;s House in Wehnimer&#039;s Landing for the first time.  Looking around at all of those gathered there, we knew we had found a home for our beloved talents. To preserve the unity we felt we set the task of creating tenants that would match the Directive we all felt. Lady Nofret was the one to formulate them for us and to this day they still stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Our Directive&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The Gypsies of Elanthia are a group of players that share a common talent, we foretell the future. Most of us have been doing this in our lives both in and out of the lands. We have endeavored to bring this joyous talent to you for the purpose of entertainment and enjoyment only. We are under the guidance of Darlita but are by no means favored by her. We rent a wagon to bring these talents to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenets of an Oracle of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
(the Gypsy title is now called oracles)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the Oracles of the Grey, have banded together for the purpose of offering our skills to the people of Elanthia, so that they may if they choose, learn what they can about what the Fates have in store for them. We, each of us, offer what skill and knowledge we each possess without regard to profession or race, seeking only to serve the greater whole as we wander the Lands of Elanthia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Admittance to our band requires much of the person who would choose to join us, as we feel the whole is served best by those truly dedicated to their art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we are associated with Madame Darlita, we pride ourselves on being able to maintain and practice our arts without undue assistance. We hone our skills to such point as we are able to read fortunes anywhere in the Lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, we set down the following tenets for ourselves:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We exist to offer our skills and will not be unduly rude to anyone desiring our services. Those waiting patiently for their turn will be treated with kindness and consideration. Any outright rudeness by an Oracle of the Grey to a client will be cause for review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will not turn away any client, although a client may choose to ask a particular member to tell a fortune should there be more than one oracle in the room at any one time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will accept tips for our services, realizing that the wealth of individuals vary widely. We will not be rude to a person because they do not tip as much as the next may.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect the skills of our brethren gypsies and not publicly contradict an interpretation of a fortune that is given by another of our band, for each of us has our own special gift. If advice is asked for in interpretation, it may be given publicly or privately as the circumstance dictate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect that our brethren have scheduled a time for telling fortunes and will not attempt to read fortunes ourselves unless invited by the member who has scheduled that slot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will strive to maintain our characters and not needlessly chatter aloud about other world concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will, to the best of our ability, strive to be present for meetings and be on time for events. Repeated failure to inform the chair of a meeting or event that one cannot attend may cause a review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We understand that our positions and participation are voluntary, however, communication is vital to our plans and if otherworldly concerns keep us from our troupe it is only polite to inform the rest of our dilemma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will maintain what is discussed amongst ourselves, between ourselves, realizing that because of the nature of magic and because we respect the right of each member to their opinion, confidentiality is required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will agree that any fortune-telling items granted by Madame Darlita are a privilege and not a right. We also realize that Madame Darlita keys the magic of such items to each of us and attempts to give away or sell such items will cause them to crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will use such items ONLY during scheduled events. Use of such items outside events is strictly prohibited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We agree to pay Madame Darlita ten percent of our tips for the use of her wagon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Prospective Members:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A prospective member will read, understand, and follow the tenets we set down here:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member must demonstrate the following traits: skill in fortune-telling, courtesy, patience, and consideration for all people regardless of profession or race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member shall be interviewed by at least two Allies and demonstrate a method or methods of fortune-telling. The proposed new member may use any items suited to fortune-telling that they wish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Examples of items include, but are not limited to, such things as runes, cards, sticks, orbs, tea leaves, bones, or crystals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of Oracle member availability to be present in-lands, it will also be acceptable for one member to log an interview and present it via e-scroll to all other members. With an Oracle vote, the prospective member may be granted an apprenticeship in the band. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member, upon demonstration of such skills and temperament will gain the title Apprentice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will be added to the general mailing list and receive missives concerning meetings and fortune-telling events. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will tell fortunes at least two events under the guidance of a member Ally so that they can be evaluated and given advice as necessary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Once the Apprentice has demonstrated skill with handling clients and skill with telling fortunes, he or she will be voted on by the Oracles and told the results of the vote with all due haste. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Voting may either happen in-Lands or via e-scroll. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If two Oracles state and give good evidence why either a proposed new member or existent Apprentice should not be admitted then their application will be terminated. The proposed new member or Apprentice may reapply after six months if they so choose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An Apprentice who is voted into the Oracles of the Grey is eligible for any item Madame Darlita may choose to supply. (depreciated as Madame Darlita has left the lands.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allly Judges&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If at any time there is substantiated cause for concern about any Oracle member&#039;s actions a review panel of three Oracle judges will be gathered to rend a verdict on the particular case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The members of the panel will rotate their positions amongst the total members of the troupe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allies of the Grey Meetings&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Any full member of the Allies of the Grey may call a meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*General meetings will be announced at least a week before they will take place and a reminder notice sent to all the day before the meeting will take place&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Emergency meetings may be called by any member, realizing that because of short notice not all may be able to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Business of the Allies of the Grey may be discussed and settled via e-scroll due to the varied schedules of troupe members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Guardians of the Oracles ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Oracles of the Grey are a group of individuals who are gifted with the “Sight” and offer free to all their ability to Foretell.  It is our duty, as their Guardians, to ensure their safety at all times.  While the Oracles, hereto referred to as Our Wards, must need to answer their call to scrye, it is our duty to defend them, as they are unable to when bound to their foresworn duty of foretelling. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Symbol of Guardians&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A silhouetted chimera symbol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Darkly pigmented, this silhouetted creature bears three heads wrapped in a loose banner of deep plum; a gapping beaked hawk, a crested dragon, and a horned goat.  Meeting the body of a horse, which is reared back on its hind legs with its front legs pawing at the open air, the trio of heads stares ahead with piercing eyes.  Enormous wings spread from the back of the body to arch in a downward sweep that brushes the long, sinuous lion’s tail as it encircles a cat’s-eye crystal ball. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==The Guardian Oath==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure and maintain the peace of all gatherings of our Wards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To at all times maintain the positive image of the Allies of the Grey, and never use force unless absolutely necessary in the defense of our Wards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Written by Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039; Kav before the first Conclave of the Allies of the Grey.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Guardian Tenants==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are united under the Allies of the Grey banner so that our Wards may freely use their sight, and therefore are charged with finding and maintaining a peaceful atmosphere for our Wards to work within. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with the care and well-being of our Wards should they fall Ill as a side effect of their ability to use their “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with the defense of our Wards should any wish them Ill, and to never leave their side. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with ensuring our Wards remain untouched by any client while they are using their gifts of “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with being ever vigil, ever watchful, and ever silent while our Wards work with their clients. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with the defense and guardianship of our Wards, who are defenseless during their use of their “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will ever be respectful of our Wards, and the gifts that they use. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will always be prompt, well-groomed, and in good health for each assigned duty so that we may always be able to offer our Wards the utmost care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will always be respectful of all and any clients that our Wards may have, as they must use their “Sight” for all and any that request it.  As such, we will always place our personal feelings for our Ward’s clients to the side so that we can better guard and fulfill our Duties.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will maintain guardianship over our assigned Ward no matter their deeds or actions while using their “Sight” if for any reason at the end of the assignment we find that we can no longer Guard our assigned Ward, we are given the right to request a re-assignment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We understand that our Wards are a neutral party and as such are separate from all political and worldly influence.  We swear to keep them safe from the manipulations of groups that would seek to steer them from their path of neutrality and remind them of their duties to their “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We swear to ensure that ALL Wards of the Guardians have one of our Ranks at their side at all times to the limit of our abilities and powers.&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Charna2.jpg|thumb|Charna as rendered by [[Tymelorde]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Appearance==&lt;br /&gt;
You see Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be a [[Half-Elf | Half-Elf]] from [[Talador | Talador]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.  She has shoulder length, shaggy rust-red hair plaited into two braids with some soft viridian ribbons woven through them.  She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a moonstone-set translucent crystal, an antique golden key hung on a black silk cord, a fur-lined viridian wool cloak, a leaf-trimmed soft viridian houppelande, a pair of simple copper armbands, a series of slender linden bangles set with sea glass cabochons, a crystal-set etched silver ring, a cinctured coppery leather belt, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a small black suede back sheath, and a pair of soft elk hide ankle-boots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Formerly known as The Gypsy Troupe, the [[Allies of the Grey]] was created in 5099 at the end of an event at [[Willow Hall]] when the wandering gypsy Darlita found a band of adventures with the Gift of scrying.  Impressed with their talents, she founded the group and joined them together in a bond that would span years.  Their numbers had at one point swelled, and then at other times diminished but many of them still believe in the Gypsy Darlita&#039;s ways and use her lovely devices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allies of Today==&lt;br /&gt;
Created under the Player Run Organization system, the Allies of the Grey flourishes by offering Fortune Telling Services to adventurers during festivals and events.  Fortune Telling, however, is not their only talent as they also offer Constellation Classes, Translation Classes, and sell Scrying Devices through their shop Celestial Wanderings in Solhaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Schedule for the Allies of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Upcoming Events&#039;&#039;&#039; will be posted here.  Should you wish to request a class, festival presence, or private divination, please contact us at &#039;&#039;&#039;alliesofthegrey@gmail.com&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

== Allies of the Grey ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Allies of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; are broken into two subgroups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Oracles of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the seers, sakers, and diviners of the order.&amp;lt;BR&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Guardians of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the people that guard the Oracles as the path of neutrality can make an Oracle a target to those that decide to live in either the Light or the Dark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oath of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to respect the gift of foresight and the Arkati who granted it to us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to revere and obey the laws and customs of whatever town or region we are in, and to incite respect and reverence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow, by our present words and by our future actions, to render Elanthia not less but better and more beautiful than it was before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;All these things we do freely swear, in the name of whatever each one of us holds sacred in his or her heart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--Adapted by [[Nofret Hrist]] from the oath taken by the young men of Athens at the time of Pericles (5th-century B.C.E.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenants of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night in our distant past, the (formerly known as) Gypsies gathered together in Lady Anghosina&#039;s House in Wehnimer&#039;s Landing for the first time.  Looking around at all of those gathered there, we knew we had found a home for our beloved talents. To preserve the unity we felt we set the task of creating tenants that would match the Directive we all felt. Lady Nofret was the one to formulate them for us and to this day they still stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Our Directive&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The Gypsies of Elanthia are a group of players that share a common talent, we foretell the future. Most of us have been doing this in our lives both in and out of the lands. We have endeavored to bring this joyous talent to you for the purpose of entertainment and enjoyment only. We are under the guidance of Darlita but are by no means favored by her. We rent a wagon to bring these talents to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenets of an Oracle of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
(the Gypsy title is now called oracles)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the Oracles of the Grey, have banded together for the purpose of offering our skills to the people of Elanthia, so that they may if they choose, learn what they can about what the Fates have in store for them. We, each of us, offer what skill and knowledge we each possess without regard to profession or race, seeking only to serve the greater whole as we wander the Lands of Elanthia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Admittance to our band requires much of the person who would choose to join us, as we feel the whole is served best by those truly dedicated to their art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we are associated with Madame Darlita, we pride ourselves on being able to maintain and practice our arts without undue assistance. We hone our skills to such point as we are able to read fortunes anywhere in the Lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, we set down the following tenets for ourselves:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We exist to offer our skills and will not be unduly rude to anyone desiring our services. Those waiting patiently for their turn will be treated with kindness and consideration. Any outright rudeness by an Oracle of the Grey to a client will be cause for review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will not turn away any client, although a client may choose to ask a particular member to tell a fortune should there be more than one oracle in the room at any one time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will accept tips for our services, realizing that the wealth of individuals vary widely. We will not be rude to a person because they do not tip as much as the next may.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect the skills of our brethren gypsies and not publicly contradict an interpretation of a fortune that is given by another of our band, for each of us has our own special gift. If advice is asked for in interpretation, it may be given publicly or privately as the circumstance dictate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect that our brethren have scheduled a time for telling fortunes and will not attempt to read fortunes ourselves unless invited by the member who has scheduled that slot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will strive to maintain our characters and not needlessly chatter aloud about other world concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will, to the best of our ability, strive to be present for meetings and be on time for events. Repeated failure to inform the chair of a meeting or event that one cannot attend may cause a review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We understand that our positions and participation are voluntary, however, communication is vital to our plans and if otherworldly concerns keep us from our troupe it is only polite to inform the rest of our dilemma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will maintain what is discussed amongst ourselves, between ourselves, realizing that because of the nature of magic and because we respect the right of each member to their opinion, confidentiality is required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will agree that any fortune-telling items granted by Madame Darlita are a privilege and not a right. We also realize that Madame Darlita keys the magic of such items to each of us and attempts to give away or sell such items will cause them to crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will use such items ONLY during scheduled events. Use of such items outside events is strictly prohibited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We agree to pay Madame Darlita ten percent of our tips for the use of her wagon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Prospective Members:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A prospective member will read, understand, and follow the tenets we set down here:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member must demonstrate the following traits: skill in fortune-telling, courtesy, patience, and consideration for all people regardless of profession or race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member shall be interviewed by at least two Allies and demonstrate a method or methods of fortune-telling. The proposed new member may use any items suited to fortune-telling that they wish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Examples of items include, but are not limited to, such things as runes, cards, sticks, orbs, tea leaves, bones, or crystals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of Oracle member availability to be present in-lands, it will also be acceptable for one member to log an interview and present it via e-scroll to all other members. With an Oracle vote, the prospective member may be granted an apprenticeship in the band. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member, upon demonstration of such skills and temperament will gain the title Apprentice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will be added to the general mailing list and receive missives concerning meetings and fortune-telling events. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will tell fortunes at least two events under the guidance of a member Ally so that they can be evaluated and given advice as necessary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Once the Apprentice has demonstrated skill with handling clients and skill with telling fortunes, he or she will be voted on by the Oracles and told the results of the vote with all due haste. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Voting may either happen in-Lands or via e-scroll. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If two Oracles state and give good evidence why either a proposed new member or existent Apprentice should not be admitted then their application will be terminated. The proposed new member or Apprentice may reapply after six months if they so choose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An Apprentice who is voted into the Oracles of the Grey is eligible for any item Madame Darlita may choose to supply. (depreciated as Madame Darlita has left the lands.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allly Judges&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If at any time there is substantiated cause for concern about any Oracle member&#039;s actions a review panel of three Oracle judges will be gathered to rend a verdict on the particular case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The members of the panel will rotate their positions amongst the total members of the troupe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allies of the Grey Meetings&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Any full member of the Allies of the Grey may call a meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*General meetings will be announced at least a week before they will take place and a reminder notice sent to all the day before the meeting will take place&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Emergency meetings may be called by any member, realizing that because of short notice not all may be able to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Business of the Allies of the Grey may be discussed and settled via e-scroll due to the varied schedules of troupe members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Guardians of the Oracles ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Oracles of the Grey are a group of individuals who are gifted with the “Sight” and offer free to all their ability to Foretell.  It is our duty, as their Guardians, to ensure their safety at all times.  While the Oracles, hereto referred to as Our Wards, must need to answer their call to scrye, it is our duty to defend them, as they are unable to when bound to their foresworn duty of foretelling. &lt;br /&gt;

A silhouetted chimera symbol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Darkly pigmented, this silhouetted creature bears three heads wrapped in a loose banner of deep plum; a gapping beaked hawk, a crested dragon, and a horned goat.  Meeting the body of a horse, which is reared back on its hind legs with its front legs pawing at the open air, the trio of heads stares ahead with piercing eyes.  Enormous wings spread from the back of the body to arch in a downward sweep that brushes the long, sinuous lion’s tail as it encircles a cat’s-eye crystal ball. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Guardian Tenants==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
We will maintain guardianship over our assigned Ward no matter their deeds or actions while using their “Sight” if for any reason at the end of the assignment we find that we can no longer Guard our assigned Ward, we are given the right to request a re-assignment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We understand that our Wards are a neutral party and as such are separate from all political and worldly influence.  We swear to keep them safe from the manipulations of groups that would seek to steer them from their path of neutrality and remind them of their duties to their “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We swear to ensure that ALL Wards of the Guardians have one of our Ranks at their side at all times to the limit of our abilities and powers.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Formerly known as The Gypsy Troupe, the [[Allies of the Grey]] was created in 5099 at the end of an event at [[Willow Hall]] when the wandering gypsy Darlita found a band of adventures with the Gift of scrying.  Impressed with their talents, she founded the group and joined them together in a bond that would span years.  Their numbers had at one point swelled, and then at other times diminished but many of them still believe in the Gypsy Darlita&#039;s ways and use her lovely devices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allies of Today==&lt;br /&gt;
Created under the Player Run Organization system, the Allies of the Grey flourishes by offering Fortune Telling Services to adventurers during festivals and events.  Fortune Telling, however, is not their only talent as they also offer Constellation Classes, Translation Classes, and sell Scrying Devices through their shop Celestial Wanderings in Solhaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Allies of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; are broken into two subgroups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Oracles of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the seers, sakers, and diviners of the order.&amp;lt;BR&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Guardians of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the people that guard the Oracles as the path of neutrality can make an Oracle a target to those that decide to live in either the Light or the Dark.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;quot;All these things we do freely swear, in the name of whatever each one of us holds sacred in his or her heart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--Adapted by [[Nofret Hrist]] from the oath taken by the young men of Athens at the time of Pericles (5th-century B.C.E.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenants of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night in our distant past, the (formerly known as) Gypsies gathered together in Lady Anghosina&#039;s House in Wehnimer&#039;s Landing for the first time.  Looking around at all of those gathered there, we knew we had found a home for our beloved talents. To preserve the unity we felt we set the task of creating tenants that would match the Directive we all felt. Lady Nofret was the one to formulate them for us and to this day they still stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Our Directive&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The Gypsies of Elanthia are a group of players that share a common talent, we foretell the future. Most of us have been doing this in our lives both in and out of the lands. We have endeavored to bring this joyous talent to you for the purpose of entertainment and enjoyment only. We are under the guidance of Darlita but are by no means favored by her. We rent a wagon to bring these talents to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenets of an Oracle of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
(the Gypsy title is now called oracles)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the Oracles of the Grey, have banded together for the purpose of offering our skills to the people of Elanthia, so that they may if they choose, learn what they can about what the Fates have in store for them. We, each of us, offer what skill and knowledge we each possess without regard to profession or race, seeking only to serve the greater whole as we wander the Lands of Elanthia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Admittance to our band requires much of the person who would choose to join us, as we feel the whole is served best by those truly dedicated to their art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we are associated with Madame Darlita, we pride ourselves on being able to maintain and practice our arts without undue assistance. We hone our skills to such point as we are able to read fortunes anywhere in the Lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, we set down the following tenets for ourselves:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We exist to offer our skills and will not be unduly rude to anyone desiring our services. Those waiting patiently for their turn will be treated with kindness and consideration. Any outright rudeness by an Oracle of the Grey to a client will be cause for review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will not turn away any client, although a client may choose to ask a particular member to tell a fortune should there be more than one oracle in the room at any one time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will accept tips for our services, realizing that the wealth of individuals vary widely. We will not be rude to a person because they do not tip as much as the next may.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect the skills of our brethren gypsies and not publicly contradict an interpretation of a fortune that is given by another of our band, for each of us has our own special gift. If advice is asked for in interpretation, it may be given publicly or privately as the circumstance dictate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect that our brethren have scheduled a time for telling fortunes and will not attempt to read fortunes ourselves unless invited by the member who has scheduled that slot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will strive to maintain our characters and not needlessly chatter aloud about other world concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will, to the best of our ability, strive to be present for meetings and be on time for events. Repeated failure to inform the chair of a meeting or event that one cannot attend may cause a review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We understand that our positions and participation are voluntary, however, communication is vital to our plans and if otherworldly concerns keep us from our troupe it is only polite to inform the rest of our dilemma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will maintain what is discussed amongst ourselves, between ourselves, realizing that because of the nature of magic and because we respect the right of each member to their opinion, confidentiality is required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will agree that any fortune-telling items granted by Madame Darlita are a privilege and not a right. We also realize that Madame Darlita keys the magic of such items to each of us and attempts to give away or sell such items will cause them to crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will use such items ONLY during scheduled events. Use of such items outside events is strictly prohibited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We agree to pay Madame Darlita ten percent of our tips for the use of her wagon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Prospective Members:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A prospective member will read, understand, and follow the tenets we set down here:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member must demonstrate the following traits: skill in fortune-telling, courtesy, patience, and consideration for all people regardless of profession or race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member shall be interviewed by at least two Allies and demonstrate a method or methods of fortune-telling. The proposed new member may use any items suited to fortune-telling that they wish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Examples of items include, but are not limited to, such things as runes, cards, sticks, orbs, tea leaves, bones, or crystals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of Oracle member availability to be present in-lands, it will also be acceptable for one member to log an interview and present it via e-scroll to all other members. With an Oracle vote, the prospective member may be granted an apprenticeship in the band. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member, upon demonstration of such skills and temperament will gain the title Apprentice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will be added to the general mailing list and receive missives concerning meetings and fortune-telling events. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will tell fortunes at least two events under the guidance of a member Ally so that they can be evaluated and given advice as necessary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Once the Apprentice has demonstrated skill with handling clients and skill with telling fortunes, he or she will be voted on by the Oracles and told the results of the vote with all due haste. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Voting may either happen in-Lands or via e-scroll. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If two Oracles state and give good evidence why either a proposed new member or existent Apprentice should not be admitted then their application will be terminated. The proposed new member or Apprentice may reapply after six months if they so choose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An Apprentice who is voted into the Oracles of the Grey is eligible for any item Madame Darlita may choose to supply. (depreciated as Madame Darlita has left the lands.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allly Judges&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If at any time there is substantiated cause for concern about any Oracle member&#039;s actions a review panel of three Oracle judges will be gathered to rend a verdict on the particular case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The members of the panel will rotate their positions amongst the total members of the troupe.&lt;br /&gt;

It is our duty, as their Guardians, to ensure their safety at all times.

&lt;br /&gt;
Darkly pigmented, this silhouetted creature bears three heads wrapped in a loose banner of deep plum; a gapping beaked hawk, a crested dragon, and a horned goat.  Meeting the body of a horse, which is reared back on its hind legs with its front legs pawing at the open air, the trio of heads stares ahead with piercing eyes.  Enormous wings spread from the back of the body to arch in a downward sweep that brushes the long, sinuous lion’s tail as it encircles a cat’s-eye crystal ball. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Formerly known as The Gypsy Troupe, the [[Allies of the Grey]] was created in 5099 at the end of an event at [[Willow Hall]] when the wandering gypsy Darlita found a band of adventures with the Gift of scrying.  Impressed with their talents, she founded the group and joined them together in a bond that would span years.  Their numbers had at one point swelled, and then at other times diminished but many of them still believe in the Gypsy Darlita&#039;s ways and use her lovely devices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allies of Today==&lt;br /&gt;
Created under the Player Run Organization system, the Allies of the Grey flourishes by offering Fortune Telling Services to adventurers during festivals and events.  Fortune Telling, however, is not their only talent as they also offer Constellation Classes, Translation Classes, and sell Scrying Devices through their shop Celestial Wanderings in Solhaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Schedule for the Allies of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Upcoming Events&#039;&#039;&#039; will be posted here.  Should you wish to request a class, festival presence, or private divination, please contact us at &#039;&#039;&#039;alliesofthegrey@gmail.com&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;

== Allies of the Grey ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Allies of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; are broken into two subgroups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Oracles of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the seers, sakers, and diviners of the order.&amp;lt;BR&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Guardians of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the people that guard the Oracles as the path of neutrality can make an Oracle a target to those that decide to live in either the Light or the Dark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oath of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to respect the gift of foresight and the Arkati who granted it to us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to revere and obey the laws and customs of whatever town or region we are in, and to incite respect and reverence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow, by our present words and by our future actions, to render Elanthia not less but better and more beautiful than it was before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;All these things we do freely swear, in the name of whatever each one of us holds sacred in his or her heart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--Adapted by [[Nofret Hrist]] from the oath taken by the young men of Athens at the time of Pericles (5th-century B.C.E.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenants of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night in our distant past, the (formerly known as) Gypsies gathered together in Lady Anghosina&#039;s House in Wehnimer&#039;s Landing for the first time.  Looking around at all of those gathered there, we knew we had found a home for our beloved talents. To preserve the unity we felt we set the task of creating tenants that would match the Directive we all felt. Lady Nofret was the one to formulate them for us and to this day they still stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Our Directive&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The Gypsies of Elanthia are a group of players that share a common talent, we foretell the future. Most of us have been doing this in our lives both in and out of the lands. We have endeavored to bring this joyous talent to you for the purpose of entertainment and enjoyment only. We are under the guidance of Darlita but are by no means favored by her. We rent a wagon to bring these talents to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenets of an Oracle of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
(the Gypsy title is now called oracles)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the Oracles of the Grey, have banded together for the purpose of offering our skills to the people of Elanthia, so that they may if they choose, learn what they can about what the Fates have in store for them. We, each of us, offer what skill and knowledge we each possess without regard to profession or race, seeking only to serve the greater whole as we wander the Lands of Elanthia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Admittance to our band requires much of the person who would choose to join us, as we feel the whole is served best by those truly dedicated to their art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we are associated with Madame Darlita, we pride ourselves on being able to maintain and practice our arts without undue assistance. We hone our skills to such point as we are able to read fortunes anywhere in the Lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, we set down the following tenets for ourselves:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We exist to offer our skills and will not be unduly rude to anyone desiring our services. Those waiting patiently for their turn will be treated with kindness and consideration. Any outright rudeness by an Oracle of the Grey to a client will be cause for review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will not turn away any client, although a client may choose to ask a particular member to tell a fortune should there be more than one oracle in the room at any one time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will accept tips for our services, realizing that the wealth of individuals vary widely. We will not be rude to a person because they do not tip as much as the next may.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect the skills of our brethren gypsies and not publicly contradict an interpretation of a fortune that is given by another of our band, for each of us has our own special gift. If advice is asked for in interpretation, it may be given publicly or privately as the circumstance dictate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect that our brethren have scheduled a time for telling fortunes and will not attempt to read fortunes ourselves unless invited by the member who has scheduled that slot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will strive to maintain our characters and not needlessly chatter aloud about other world concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will, to the best of our ability, strive to be present for meetings and be on time for events. Repeated failure to inform the chair of a meeting or event that one cannot attend may cause a review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We understand that our positions and participation are voluntary, however, communication is vital to our plans and if otherworldly concerns keep us from our troupe it is only polite to inform the rest of our dilemma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will maintain what is discussed amongst ourselves, between ourselves, realizing that because of the nature of magic and because we respect the right of each member to their opinion, confidentiality is required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will agree that any fortune-telling items granted by Madame Darlita are a privilege and not a right. We also realize that Madame Darlita keys the magic of such items to each of us and attempts to give away or sell such items will cause them to crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will use such items ONLY during scheduled events. Use of such items outside events is strictly prohibited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We agree to pay Madame Darlita ten percent of our tips for the use of her wagon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Prospective Members:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A prospective member will read, understand, and follow the tenets we set down here:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member must demonstrate the following traits: skill in fortune-telling, courtesy, patience, and consideration for all people regardless of profession or race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member shall be interviewed by at least two Allies and demonstrate a method or methods of fortune-telling. The proposed new member may use any items suited to fortune-telling that they wish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Examples of items include, but are not limited to, such things as runes, cards, sticks, orbs, tea leaves, bones, or crystals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of Oracle member availability to be present in-lands, it will also be acceptable for one member to log an interview and present it via e-scroll to all other members. With an Oracle vote, the prospective member may be granted an apprenticeship in the band. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member, upon demonstration of such skills and temperament will gain the title Apprentice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will be added to the general mailing list and receive missives concerning meetings and fortune-telling events. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will tell fortunes at least two events under the guidance of a member Ally so that they can be evaluated and given advice as necessary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Once the Apprentice has demonstrated skill with handling clients and skill with telling fortunes, he or she will be voted on by the Oracles and told the results of the vote with all due haste. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Voting may either happen in-Lands or via e-scroll. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If two Oracles state and give good evidence why either a proposed new member or existent Apprentice should not be admitted then their application will be terminated. The proposed new member or Apprentice may reapply after six months if they so choose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An Apprentice who is voted into the Oracles of the Grey is eligible for any item Madame Darlita may choose to supply. (depreciated as Madame Darlita has left the lands.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allly Judges&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If at any time there is substantiated cause for concern about any Oracle member&#039;s actions a review panel of three Oracle judges will be gathered to rend a verdict on the particular case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The members of the panel will rotate their positions amongst the total members of the troupe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allies of the Grey Meetings&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Any full member of the Allies of the Grey may call a meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*General meetings will be announced at least a week before they will take place and a reminder notice sent to all the day before the meeting will take place&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Emergency meetings may be called by any member, realizing that because of short notice not all may be able to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Business of the Allies of the Grey may be discussed and settled via e-scroll due to the varied schedules of troupe members.&lt;br /&gt;

Impressed with their talents, she founded the group and joined them together in a bond that would span years.  Their numbers had at one point swelled, and then at other times diminished but many of them still believe in the Gypsy Darlita&#039;s ways and use her lovely devices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Allies of Today==&lt;br /&gt;
Created under the Player Run Organization system, the Allies of the Grey flourishes by offering Fortune Telling Services to adventurers during festivals and events.  Fortune Telling, however, is not their only talent as they also offer Constellation Classes, Translation Classes, and sell Scrying Devices through their shop Celestial Wanderings in Solhaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Allies of the Grey ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Allies of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; are broken into two subgroups:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Oracles of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the seers, sakers, and diviners of the order.&amp;lt;BR&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Guardians of the Grey&#039;&#039;&#039; - these are the people that guard the Oracles as the path of neutrality can make an Oracle a target to those that decide to live in either the Light or the Dark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oath of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to respect the gift of foresight and the Arkati who granted it to us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow to revere and obey the laws and customs of whatever town or region we are in, and to incite respect and reverence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We vow, by our present words and by our future actions, to render Elanthia not less but better and more beautiful than it was before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;All these things we do freely swear, in the name of whatever each one of us holds sacred in his or her heart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--Adapted by [[Nofret Hrist]] from the oath taken by the young men of Athens at the time of Pericles (5th-century B.C.E.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenants of an Ally of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night in our distant past, the (formerly known as) Gypsies gathered together in Lady Anghosina&#039;s House in Wehnimer&#039;s Landing for the first time.  Looking around at all of those gathered there, we knew we had found a home for our beloved talents. To preserve the unity we felt we set the task of creating tenants that would match the Directive we all felt. Lady Nofret was the one to formulate them for us and to this day they still stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Our Directive&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The Gypsies of Elanthia are a group of players that share a common talent, we foretell the future. Most of us have been doing this in our lives both in and out of the lands. We have endeavored to bring this joyous talent to you for the purpose of entertainment and enjoyment only. We are under the guidance of Darlita but are by no means favored by her. We rent a wagon to bring these talents to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tenets of an Oracle of the Grey==&lt;br /&gt;
(the Gypsy title is now called oracles)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the Oracles of the Grey, have banded together for the purpose of offering our skills to the people of Elanthia, so that they may if they choose, learn what they can about what the Fates have in store for them. We, each of us, offer what skill and knowledge we each possess without regard to profession or race, seeking only to serve the greater whole as we wander the Lands of Elanthia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Admittance to our band requires much of the person who would choose to join us, as we feel the whole is served best by those truly dedicated to their art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we are associated with Madame Darlita, we pride ourselves on being able to maintain and practice our arts without undue assistance. We hone our skills to such point as we are able to read fortunes anywhere in the Lands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, we set down the following tenets for ourselves:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We exist to offer our skills and will not be unduly rude to anyone desiring our services. Those waiting patiently for their turn will be treated with kindness and consideration. Any outright rudeness by an Oracle of the Grey to a client will be cause for review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will not turn away any client, although a client may choose to ask a particular member to tell a fortune should there be more than one oracle in the room at any one time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will accept tips for our services, realizing that the wealth of individuals vary widely. We will not be rude to a person because they do not tip as much as the next may.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect the skills of our brethren gypsies and not publicly contradict an interpretation of a fortune that is given by another of our band, for each of us has our own special gift. If advice is asked for in interpretation, it may be given publicly or privately as the circumstance dictate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will respect that our brethren have scheduled a time for telling fortunes and will not attempt to read fortunes ourselves unless invited by the member who has scheduled that slot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will strive to maintain our characters and not needlessly chatter aloud about other world concerns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will, to the best of our ability, strive to be present for meetings and be on time for events. Repeated failure to inform the chair of a meeting or event that one cannot attend may cause a review of the case by three oracle judges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We understand that our positions and participation are voluntary, however, communication is vital to our plans and if otherworldly concerns keep us from our troupe it is only polite to inform the rest of our dilemma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will maintain what is discussed amongst ourselves, between ourselves, realizing that because of the nature of magic and because we respect the right of each member to their opinion, confidentiality is required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will agree that any fortune-telling items granted by Madame Darlita are a privilege and not a right. We also realize that Madame Darlita keys the magic of such items to each of us and attempts to give away or sell such items will cause them to crumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We will use such items ONLY during scheduled events. Use of such items outside events is strictly prohibited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*We agree to pay Madame Darlita ten percent of our tips for the use of her wagon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Prospective Members:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A prospective member will read, understand, and follow the tenets we set down here:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member must demonstrate the following traits: skill in fortune-telling, courtesy, patience, and consideration for all people regardless of profession or race. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member shall be interviewed by at least two Allies and demonstrate a method or methods of fortune-telling. The proposed new member may use any items suited to fortune-telling that they wish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Examples of items include, but are not limited to, such things as runes, cards, sticks, orbs, tea leaves, bones, or crystals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of Oracle member availability to be present in-lands, it will also be acceptable for one member to log an interview and present it via e-scroll to all other members. With an Oracle vote, the prospective member may be granted an apprenticeship in the band. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The proposed new member, upon demonstration of such skills and temperament will gain the title Apprentice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will be added to the general mailing list and receive missives concerning meetings and fortune-telling events. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The Apprentice will tell fortunes at least two events under the guidance of a member Ally so that they can be evaluated and given advice as necessary. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Once the Apprentice has demonstrated skill with handling clients and skill with telling fortunes, he or she will be voted on by the Oracles and told the results of the vote with all due haste. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Voting may either happen in-Lands or via e-scroll. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If two Oracles state and give good evidence why either a proposed new member or existent Apprentice should not be admitted then their application will be terminated. The proposed new member or Apprentice may reapply after six months if they so choose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*An Apprentice who is voted into the Oracles of the Grey is eligible for any item Madame Darlita may choose to supply. (depreciated as Madame Darlita has left the lands.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allly Judges&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*If at any time there is substantiated cause for concern about any Oracle member&#039;s actions a review panel of three Oracle judges will be gathered to rend a verdict on the particular case.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The members of the panel will rotate their positions amongst the total members of the troupe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Allies of the Grey Meetings&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Any full member of the Allies of the Grey may call a meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*General meetings will be announced at least a week before they will take place and a reminder notice sent to all the day before the meeting will take place&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Emergency meetings may be called by any member, realizing that because of short notice not all may be able to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Business of the Allies of the Grey may be discussed and settled via e-scroll due to the varied schedules of troupe members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Guardians of the Oracles ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Oracles of the Grey are a group of individuals who are gifted with the “Sight” and offer free to all their ability to Foretell.  It is our duty, as their Guardians, to ensure their safety at all times.  While the Oracles, hereto referred to as Our Wards, must need to answer their call to scrye, it is our duty to defend them, as they are unable to when bound to their foresworn duty of foretelling. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
A silhouetted chimera symbol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Darkly pigmented, this silhouetted creature bears three heads wrapped in a loose banner of deep plum; a gapping beaked hawk, a crested dragon, and a horned goat.  Meeting the body of a horse, which is reared back on its hind legs with its front legs pawing at the open air, the trio of heads stares ahead with piercing eyes.  Enormous wings spread from the back of the body to arch in a downward sweep that brushes the long, sinuous lion’s tail as it encircles a cat’s-eye crystal ball. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Written by Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039; Kav before the first Conclave of the Allies of the Grey.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Guardian Tenants==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are united under the Allies of the Grey banner so that our Wards may freely use their sight, and therefore are charged with finding and maintaining a peaceful atmosphere for our Wards to work within. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with the care and well-being of our Wards should they fall Ill as a side effect of their ability to use their “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with the defense of our Wards should any wish them Ill, and to never leave their side. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with ensuring our Wards remain untouched by any client while they are using their gifts of “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with being ever vigil, ever watchful, and ever silent while our Wards work with their clients. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are charged with the defense and guardianship of our Wards, who are defenseless during their use of their “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
We will always be respectful of all and any clients that our Wards may have, as they must use their “Sight” for all and any that request it.  As such, we will always place our personal feelings for our Ward’s clients to the side so that we can better guard and fulfill our Duties.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will maintain guardianship over our assigned Ward no matter their deeds or actions while using their “Sight” if for any reason at the end of the assignment we find that we can no longer Guard our assigned Ward, we are given the right to request a re-assignment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We understand that our Wards are a neutral party and as such are separate from all political and worldly influence.  We swear to keep them safe from the manipulations of groups that would seek to steer them from their path of neutrality and remind them of their duties to their “Sight”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We swear to ensure that ALL Wards of the Guardians have one of our Ranks at their side at all times to the limit of our abilities and powers.&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Charna2.jpg|thumb|Charna as rendered by [[Tymelorde]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Appearance==&lt;br /&gt;
You see Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be a [[Half-Elf | Half-Elf]] from [[Talador | Talador]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.  She has shoulder length, shaggy rust-red hair plaited into two braids with some soft viridian ribbons woven through them.  She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a moonstone-set translucent crystal, an antique golden key hung on a black silk cord, a fur-lined viridian wool cloak, a leaf-trimmed soft viridian houppelande, a pair of simple copper armbands, a series of slender linden bangles set with sea glass cabochons, a crystal-set etched silver ring, a cinctured coppery leather belt, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a small black suede back sheath, and a pair of soft elk hide ankle-boots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The sun sank in a sea of reds, Liabo growing brighter in the painted world of dusk. She sat with her back against the worktable with tears drying on her face. A war of emotions was waging inside of her, some as familiar as her hand was to her and others as foreign as the faces in the city beyond.  She wasn’t sure what to make of them and was even less sure that she wanted to be feeling them. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was back where it began, some eighteen months ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The telescope had moved, the Lady putting it into place when she had not been able to and was now staring into the heavens. The moons were up there, all of them. Zelia’s moons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She paused for a moment, her fingertips upon her brow freezing in place before they could pull the strands from her eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zelia’s moons, she repeated to herself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Laughter touched the air, a silly kind of laughter that was filled with raw emotions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna quietly said to herself, “Liabo, Lornon, what does it all matter? They are all Zelia’s anyway.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She hummed for a moment and then her mind seemed to explode with voices and face all lost in time and memory only to finally have meaning and worth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I could have told you that myself, “ She had said only moments ago, “But you wouldn’t have believed me.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“No more Fear,” he had said and then squeezed her hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then we will find another way,” came the other’s simple reply.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I can not help you, but I can tell you this. You have what you need with you already.” He had spoken from his cloak of invisibility but he had been right, just as they all had.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Masks and shadows, Moon lass, Masks and shadows.” Was the last thought before a quiet settled over her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She tilted her head up to look at the sky, new tears on her cheeks as she stared at the white orb of Liabo. She was laughing again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Ye know,” She said very slowly, her eyes falling to where her hands were busy at work rolling up her sleeve. “I’m tired o’ this scar. I think tha’ its time I let ye heal right.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Taking a drink of the wine she always carried in a flask, she eyed the discoloration on her arm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I donnae hate ye, Fox, I donnae pity ye ‘er really feel anythin’ fer ye anymore.” She said through a chuckle. “I’m nae e’en ah fraid o’ ye anymore.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She pushed her bangs from her eyes again, hearing Nyrithorn tell her that it was all just an illusion and none of it real. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yer right, “ she yelled to the domed ceiling. “Ye might be ah rat bastard o’ ah brotha’ at times but yer right!”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lowering her eyes to her scar she said, “An’ I donnae believe in ye anymore.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pulling her dagger from her harness, the dagger she had made for Azorack and that Turinrond had carried for a while, she pressed it to her forearm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cried again, but this time from the pain of cutting into the diseased scar on her arm. The scar she had hated and hidden in shame, the scar that she had long cradled and feared. She wasn’t afraid anymore, just alone but for once being alone wasn’t so bad. She wasn’t sure she wanted anyone to see her do this.  Besides, the moons were on her and that was enough. Zelia watched, Zelia knew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cleaned the dagger on a ribbon and carefully placed it away.  Then layered some ambrominas leaf upon her forearm over the wound she had created.  Using her teeth to draw the ends tight, she tied a ribbon to her arm to bind the leaf into place. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every so quietly she whispered to her arm, the physical remains that she had always thought was the source, “G’bye Fox, I donnae believe in tha’ shadows anymore.”&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.  She has shoulder length, shaggy rust-red hair plaited into two braids with some soft viridian ribbons woven through them.  She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a moonstone-set translucent crystal, an antique golden key hung on a black silk cord, a fur-lined viridian wool cloak, a leaf-trimmed soft viridian houppelande, a pair of simple copper armbands, a series of slender linden bangles set with sea glass cabochons, a crystal-set etched silver ring, a cinctured coppery leather belt, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a small black suede back sheath, and a pair of soft elk hide ankle-boots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The Definition of Evil&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lay quietly in the soft furs and layered pelts that had always fashioned her bed and listened to the soft song that rolled through her head.   It was always there now, drowning out the screams and memories of war. It sang louder than the nightmares that plagued her, and even muting the Shore of Dreams as they cajoled to sleepers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now that she had learned to control the hunger, and taught the shadows that they were hers to bend -- Not, as some had thought, that she was there’s to bend – she had found a new, fresh outlook on life.  And the possibilities that spread before her seemed endless.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She felt truly free for the first time in a long time.  She was alive again and oddly disconnected from the petty things that happened around her.  Fear was behind her, her pain gone as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like a butterfly discarded its chrysalis, she felt that the child was gone and a woman had finally emerged in its place.  Still wide-eyed and wondering, but somehow less naïve and stronger than ever she had thought possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She had thought at first when the war had ended and she felt hollow inside, that she’d never know what it was to be her own person and to feel like she belonged.  Now, in the caress of the shadow’s song, she knew she didn’t need to belong anywhere.  She was who she was and nothing could pull her from that, nothing could shake it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As if to acknowledge that thought, the shadows twitched around her and she knew the cold of the grave.  She didn’t shiver, the cold wasn’t to be feared, but smiled instead. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the night of the scythe, the night of deaths and freedoms, she’d feel inexplicably drawn towards a place that was right and true.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Balance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How could such a simple word convey the depth of what she felt?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yet, it did.  All around her, she had come to find shadows and chaos and within its rolling churning tides, she had found balance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She knew she was inherently good and had once feared that her own heart would draw her too far over the edge.  But the Goddesses on her side had brought to her the very things that would keep her aligned to the grey.  The song rose, dispelling the first hints of dark memories and times, and laughter spilled from her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, they had drawn to her the dark vambraces whose song she lingered in and whose hunger, once sated, had threatened to sicken her from lack of true nourishment.  But the Goddesses knew how to care for their vessel and it was through Cosain that she had managed to maintain her own body, their link ever tight and powerful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then they had brought her a cursed blade, its grip and shadows binding to her as strongly as the other but her conviction to not be claimed by these powers drove her to master them and she found within herself the greatest power of all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her own&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, she was still Zelia’s and gifted with the sight and laughter that could carry her through Chaos and out the other side unscathed, but also, she’d earned the favor of death.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 And Gosaena smiled on.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Charna2.jpg|thumb|Charna as rendered by [[Tymelorde]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Appearance==&lt;br /&gt;
You see Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be a [[Half-Elf | Half-Elf]] from [[Talador | Talador]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.  She has shoulder length, shaggy rust-red hair plaited into two braids with some soft viridian ribbons woven through them.  She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a moonstone-set translucent crystal, an antique golden key hung on a black silk cord, a fur-lined viridian wool cloak, a leaf-trimmed soft viridian houppelande, a pair of simple copper armbands, a series of slender linden bangles set with sea glass cabochons, a crystal-set etched silver ring, a cinctured coppery leather belt, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a small black suede back sheath, and a pair of soft elk hide ankle-boots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
A roll of ivory-hued vellum bound by a simple grey ribbon and sealed with a crescent-shaped smudge of black wax&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fashnos 16th 5105&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mo Muinteoir,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I deliberated long on how to start this letter, and even now with those words, I know that they may remain unread.  If there were a form of magic, some elemental that I could cajole into sending these words to you then I would beseech them.  Even now I wonder if this ivory vellum will lie in the orange flames of your hearth, curling slightly at the edges before they are consumed.  With luck, or perhaps a bit of my hard-won hope, I will find these words before your eyes and you will read them in full.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I began the letter with words of my mother’s tongue.  I know that some few of them have become familiar to you, but these perhaps not.  Mo Muinteoir. My teacher. As the days of this war progress, turning into longer nights filled with sweat, blood, and the screams of the dying, I find that I still learn from you.  In my mind&#039;s eye, I can see your right eyebrow rise in skepticism but it is true nonetheless.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your lessons echo in so very many things that are done here, done to preserve a town that I know you abhor.  I now carry no less than seven weapons on me.  My Storm Bringer is still at my side, her blade worth more to me by presence than by simple damage. Yes, I still have my weaknesses.  I carry Death’s Call with me as well now, she is a beautiful axe carved into the image of Goseana.  Her blade is wide and flat, the larger beasts cannot sustain a blow to their legs with her.  I also carry a slimmer blade that is coated in poison, even a knick with her on a beast, beyond my ability to handle or not, does enough damage that later in a fight I can take him while he is weak with her sickness.  And lastly, I have a slender short sword used to do finer damage.  There are many eyes in this battle that saw her flash of light and then nothing more.  They are not alone, hidden throughout my body are three daggers.  Each sharp and quick.  I found myself not long ago devoid of my larger blades and only the daggers to guard me.  It was the echo of your words to me, your lore that drove me to gain more than the one, for what would I do should the one become stuck in the body that presses in on me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your shadow lays ever-present upon my arm, it is lighter than any shield yet still strong.  It is more than just the defender of my body, but in part, it reminds me of what I came from and how I got there.  With it in my hand I hear a people that are not my own, calling and singing me to battle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In your absence, I have flourished, though I stand amazed at what has come to be and what is yet to do.  Had you not provided the stones, I could not have found ground with which to stand upon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two things during this season of war have left me in awe and I feel that you, my teacher, should know.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first found me standing alone, as I have been wont to do of late. I have grown quiet, some have seen me and say that I am a shadow of myself but I know I have become the watcher.  There is little that I miss that passes before me, though I still feign a youth that has long ago bled out of me from this long war.  I feel old, though I am not more than twenty-four winters out of my birthing.  Something has gone missing deep inside of me, and only through the preservation, I learned at your hands do I survive it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I stood there, watching the way the urchin’s hands slipped in and out of pockets with ease and practice, Subarashi came to me.  She bade me join her and I did, eager to be away from the crowds that I have come to hate.  We sat together, me feigning merriment I did not feel, while she related the tale of an event that happened up North.  Secret rooms within Leya’s Shrine were found and the tale of her first amazons spilled forth to glitter like rubies in a dwarven vein.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When her tale was all told, she placed within my hand a dagger that was ancient in making.  A moonstone glittered at the hilt while the etching of a steed showed in sharp relief, still fresh and new, upon the long blade. The blade belonged, in days long since passed, to one of the original Amazons of Leya.  It was a beautiful piece.  I admired it dutifully, as she spoke the words that were found upon the walls of the shrine room.  &lt;br /&gt;
“Those you fight to defend the weak and show honor in battle should wield this weapon as the Amazons once did”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am sure you smile now for, as you probably know, I tried to deny the words.  I expressed to her that I do what must be done.  Nothing more.  If anything my words drove her to smile wider.  The blade now numbers among the three that I carry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second thing that has come to pass is that I have found a will I did not realize I possessed and have striven to unbind myself to the laws that once bound me.  I have challenged the Gleeman and begun to stand for my own.  During an officer&#039;s meeting of my own calling, I challenged him. Either he returns my rank to me or I would resign.  He could not run HERT without me, it took me a while to realize this but it is true nonetheless.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What else could he do, pinned as he was between losing me at his side or me gaining rank? I am now Captain of HERT’s Fighting Forces.  There are several that were going to leave because of the gleeman’s rule, now there are several that flock to me. It is a strange thing, though I know it is, as you would wish it to be. This is what you molded me for; this is what you shaped me to be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have been told that with me at the lead of HERT, or as one of the leads, the Fury may join the Elanthian Alliance.  May, not certain but possible.  General Valicar trusts his troops under my leadership but not the Gleeman’s. It is all so strange to me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general speaks of you, speaks of how he wishes to draw you back into the Fury. I think he wishes in vain.  Though I could be wrong, I often am.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I could wish that I was born in another time, of another race.  I am finding that the lessons you taught are coming to me late, late because I am too human at times and too naïve.  That naivety seems to be washing away like mud in a storm.  I have many flaws, to name them all would be a waste of this scroll. You are more intimately aware of them than anyone I know so let me not list them but instead apologize for them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have failed you even as I have achieved your goals in me. You sought a kindred spirit in me, someone you could truly name as a friend and I have failed you in that.  Even though our minds have touched, sharing things deep inside of us that the other could never speak. No excuse I can give word or pen to can ever take that away.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My intent with this letter was not to blather on as I have but instead to speak to you on behalf of another man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His name is Denrit.  He is a strong man, a struggling leader.  When no one else would step forward.  He seeks to learn, to understand. He seeks what you can give.  He has asked me to teach him all that I know, but I am  not the teacher that you are.  No one is. I can start him on a path but only you can get him into and out of the forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Teach him, please. I will not beg you but I would not have another man fall beneath the will of another. I would not have another that could surpass me fall by the wayside.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Perhaps through Denrit I will be able to start on the road to forgiveness with you. It is my hope.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sincerely,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna, your sister in the Lok Iluve.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Appearance==&lt;br /&gt;
You see Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be a [[Half-Elf | Half-Elf]] from [[Talador | Talador]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.  She has shoulder length, shaggy rust-red hair plaited into two braids with some soft viridian ribbons woven through them.  She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is in good shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is wearing a moonstone-set translucent crystal, an antique golden key hung on a black silk cord, a fur-lined viridian wool cloak, a leaf-trimmed soft viridian houppelande, a pair of simple copper armbands, a series of slender linden bangles set with sea glass cabochons, a crystal-set etched silver ring, a cinctured coppery leather belt, a linen-lined dark suede sack, a small black suede back sheath, and a pair of soft elk hide ankle-boots.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guarrin,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am not sure what rumor has reached your ear or what facts have come to you, and since we seem to pass one another much like the Morning Dove missing sunset, I decided to write you this letter and leave it with the temple clerics in hope that they would see you before I did.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last night was hard; once again this war forced me to be covered in the blood of a friend. I’m so weary of it. Everywhere I turn I find myself in a situation where I must do what has to be done. And at every turn, I find that the price for it is more anger from people around me. I am sure that Raelee will be furious with me for a time to come, her precious knowledge lost and her, of course, blaming me and the Sickle’s Heart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let me go back for a moment, my mind is a jumble and I want to make sure I tell this to you in the proper order.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last night when I met with Sickle’s Heart, to speak to him of the death of Cerisago, we came across the Magus. He seemed weak and wane, unusually disturbed by the headaches that were plaguing us all. We quickly realized that something was amiss and drew him off the streets into the Café where we could keep quiet watch over him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was there in that Café that Harith tried for control over Deshian by using the Magus’ love for her and his god as a power source.  We tried to stop it from happening while sparing the Magus his life. We called for the Lady and she came with the Deacon but it did not help and in the end, Sickle’s Heart spoke a prayer to his Lady and claimed the Magus’ life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was at the moment of his death, and because she had bonded with him so completely thus almost succeeding in her designs, that Harith and Deshian died as well. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I raised him then, feeling the pressure of his god upon my wrists with the act of linking souls, and brought him back by Zelia’s grace. I hope it soothes his soul as she has soothed mine, though I am unsure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I feel sorry for what has come to pass. I have done my duty to the town and her people by aiding in the destruction of the Whip and once again it has come at the cost of another’s pain. There are days when I wonder if I am a vessel of Mularos’ for the pain that I deal out instead of a vessel of the Resistance. Then again, the Resistance for the most part denies that I am one of them. I am alone in this war, Guarrin. You have your Gryphons and your VOLN. You are embraced within the folds of the Elanthian Alliances and I am on the outside looking in. Always doing what must be done and forever scorned for my actions in it, even when they are right and true.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have lived by the mandates set before us by the Prophet, a man who is widely scorned by so many nowadays that it pains me to listen to. I have done all that I can to see that Havenites are kept safe only to scoff at as much as the Prophet. I am tired. Tired of the war, tired of justifying my actions, and tired of being hurt in my heart. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last night a friend told me that in this war we all had to use the tools that were given to us. He was and is right. I hope that one day people will come to understand that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The scribe over my shoulder is starting to annoy me. He has corrected no fewer than eight of my misspellings and it makes me nervous to have someone reading how I am feeling.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope this letter finds you well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By my hand on the 14th day of Koaratos in the year 5104&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Cerisago was dead. Part of me felt like I had somehow failed and yet, deep down inside I knew it was a task that had to be done. It only served to remind me of just how much this war made us all do what we had to do. I hated it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had my answers, I had gone across the spine to get them but they were already the ones I had known. Maybe I watch too much, I do not know.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last night, I had called out to the Sickle’s Heart. I did not know if he had found out about the death of Cerisago, or the Gardener, but I wanted to tell him. I wanted to pass the words to him from me. He deserved it. We had met her together, in the Landing, and had tried to always do the best by her. At least, I thought we did.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were standing on east bridge when the second wave of headaches ran through us. I grew frantic, I could not do this again. I simply could not. Harith had dug her claws into my skull before, extracting from me not even I know what. She had tied into the base of my skull and created a link that would cause waves of pain to coarse through me when I thought on the net. I would not relive Illistim of past, my failings there, or my sorrow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was at this time that the Magus came by us. We congratulated him on his victory at the Bardfest, his performance had been truly disturbing and memorable. He seemed distracted and distant. Repeating himself often and losing our conversation. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are certain men that fairly preen when complimented, their very demeanor changing under the gentle words of appreciation. The Magus, normally, is not above such attentions. His shoulders square off when speaking of the Arts, his is held high under compliments and his smile is quick. He showed none of these signs last night, but a kind of frantic anxiety; anticipation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sickle’s Heart and I shared a glance, there are rare moments in life when you can look to someone you know and instantly have them understand what you are thinking and feeling. This was one of those times. As he returned my glance we seemed to move as one. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We offered him tea away from the streets and away in the café. It only seemed right to get him out of the main thoroughfare. We were concerned for our friend but we were always concerned for something larger and bigger then the three of us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Little Ring had wandered by at this time and began to watch us. I have worried for her over much lately, though I try to not let her know lest she pulls away. I see in her something that I do not think she even bears witness to. She has grown, in her absence from Jastev’s Temple, melancholy and morose with a bit of viciousness to her. She is more like her Patron when he is in his darker moments than she realizes and, unfortunately, has taken it to mean something else. I fear for where my eyes find her when she is alone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A wave of pain ran through our heads at this point, different from the last and more intense. As a whole, we groaned but the Magus took on a different light, he seemed paler and drawn. He was fanatical in his response to the pain, though he is one of Mularos’ children this seemed beyond that. After he lost the thread of the conversation for far too many times, amongst several collapses, we finally got him to join us for the café.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With Little Ring in tow, we set off for the Bank then the Café only to have the Magus collapse in the lobby of the latter. He writhed in a mixture of feverish delight and vicious pain. I went to his side to aid him but he was upon his feet before I could more than pull his head from the tile floor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We made our way to the café, his tastes for tea revolted by what we offered him. Another cup was offered to him and we moved to the patio. Here there were no patrons of the small establishment and we hoped to monitor him.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The waves of head pains came again, the intensity more than the last and I was forced to my knees. How I hate what she can do to my mind. The Magus grew frantic and began speaking not to us but out loud to someone else. He drew a bracelet blade out of his wristlet and began to crave upon his flesh. The Sickle’s Heart attempted to remove the blade from his hand while I admonished Little Ring to move away from harm and blocked the patio door with my body. I was sweating.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His grip on the blade was so strong that Sickle’s Heart could not draw it free. The blood that was covering the Magus’ robes and the tiles was becoming alarming. In a panic, I glanced at the Sickle’s Heart and called out to the only person I could think of for aid. The Lady was swift in her response to my mental thought and by our side in a matter of moments. The Cleric of Koar was with her as well, though I do not know that Godefroy trusted the Sickle’s or mine plea.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Lady acted without pause and swiftly set herself into action. He was blinded by the Light of Lady Oleani’s Graces and at that moment, blood frothed up from his mouth. I was more concerned for him than before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the exact moment that the Lady’s spell took effect upon the Magus our minds erupted in a showering blaze of pain. The cry of a male voice echoed within our skulls as if it would never stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I gag and fought to keep myself from falling.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Magus seemed to shake off the effects of the spell far too quickly and he too began to scream. I have never known a man to be of such breath to allow a scream to rip through is body in such a way for such a long time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both clerics cast at him this time, I believe watching how the Magus writhed in his agony and called out to the Whip was finally the proof that he needed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It did nothing this time, he seemed to shrug off the effects as though they were nothing and continued to carve of his flesh. He was calling out to her more, giving himself to her fully. The Sickle’s Heart drew his blade and I knew, at that very moment, it was what had to be done. I bade him make it swift and painless but I think he was too lost in his own prayers to his Lady to even notice my admonishments.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The strike was swift, the death quick and painless. At the exact moment that I witnessed the Magus’ death, I felt two others fall with him. Deshian and Harith were dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wilted then, the tension so high that my body could contain it no more. The pressure within my skull was gone with an abruptness that was nearly blinding and my friend was dead. I was numb when they dragged the Sickle’s Heart away for his crime.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I drew the Magus’ broken body close to me and placed his head upon my lap. I wept with relief but also with no small amount of sorrow for this man. Sometimes it really doesn’t matter what side of the line you sit on. Sometimes it does not matter who is what to whom. Witnessing a loss of this magnitude in a man is heartbreaking, especially when that person is a friend. I smoothed the hair from his face, his skin was so cold and there was blood splattered all over him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A crowd was gathering that was begging answers for what had passed, I could not speak but left the answering to the Lady and Deacon. I waited for the Sickle’s Heart to return, at a loss for what to do until he guided me. I was beyond thinking on my own.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Time passed slowly while I held the corpse of my friend, his whispers of loss mingling with my tears of mixed relief and sorrow for him. Perhaps I am given too much to compassion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the Sickle’s Heart returned he bade me raise him when I asked him what I should do. I tended his wounds and withdrew the parchment from my hip-satchel that would bring him back to life. As our souls touched I felt a pressure, most intense, upon both of my wrists. Was this a warning? Or a means of thanks from a God who gives pain for his gifts? I did not know, nor do I want to. I whispered to my Lady and bade her bind his spirit to his body with the soft caress of her laughter. She answered my call and he left us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were many talks after that, no small amount of arguing and much guessing. I did not stay long.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I really hate doing what I have to do.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

The Magus seemed to shake off the effects of the spell far too quickly and he too began to scream. I have never known a man to be of such breath to allow a scream to rip through is body in such a way for such a long time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both clerics cast at him this time, I believe watching how the Magus writhed in his agony and called out to the Whip was finally the proof that he needed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It did nothing this time, he seemed to shrug off the effects as though they were nothing and continued to carve of his flesh. He was calling out to her more, giving himself to her fully. The Sickle’s Heart drew his blade and I knew, at that very moment, it was what had to be done. I bade him make it swift and painless but I think he was too lost in his own prayers to his Lady to even notice my admonishments.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The strike was swift, the death quick and painless. At the exact moment that I witnessed the Magus’ death, I felt two others fall with him. Deshian and Harith were dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wilted then, the tension so high that my body could contain it no more. The pressure within my skull was gone with an abruptness that was nearly blinding and my friend was dead. I was numb when they dragged the Sickle’s Heart away for his crime.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I drew the Magus’ broken body close to me and placed his head upon my lap. I wept with relief but also with no small amount of sorrow for this man. Sometimes it really doesn’t matter what side of the line you sit on. Sometimes it does not matter who is what to whom. Witnessing a loss of this magnitude in a man is heartbreaking, especially when that person is a friend. I smoothed the hair from his face, his skin was so cold and there was blood splattered all over him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A crowd was gathering that was begging answers for what had passed, I could not speak but left the answering to the Lady and Deacon. I waited for the Sickle’s Heart to return, at a loss for what to do until he guided me. I was beyond thinking on my own.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Time passed slowly while I held the corpse of my friend, his whispers of loss mingling with my tears of mixed relief and sorrow for him. Perhaps I am given too much to compassion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the Sickle’s Heart returned he bade me raise him when I asked him what I should do. I tended his wounds and withdrew the parchment from my hip-satchel that would bring him back to life. As our souls touched I felt a pressure, most intense, upon both of my wrists. Was this a warning? Or a means of thanks from a God who gives pain for his gifts? I did not know, nor do I want to. I whispered to my Lady and bade her bind his spirit to his body with the soft caress of her laughter. She answered my call and he left us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were many talks after that, no small amount of arguing and much guessing. I did not stay long.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I really hate doing what I have to do.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
She appears to be very young and shorter than average.  She has expressive, ebon-flecked hazel eyes and lightly freckle-dusted skin.  She has shoulder length, shaggy rust-red hair plaited into two braids with some soft viridian ribbons woven through them.  She has an angular face, a freckled nose and high cheekbones accentuated by slightly-pointed ears.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She has a trio of twisted copper hoops wrapped in silver wire set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, and a beribboned maidens tattoo on her thigh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place among her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Swaddled in a cocoon of comfort, she lay in slumber for days.  She would stir briefly at odd times of the day as she subconsciously strove to ensure that she was safe.  Always the familiar presence of the mastiff at her side would lull her back to sleep, secure in the fact that if he was near and resting all was well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sounds from the street beyond the small cottage never drifted near enough to her, and as such she never woke with a start of panic that she was back in the Elven city she hated so very much.  It was the first sleep she’d had in days, weeks, perhaps even months.  Certainly, the first peaceful sleep that she had enjoyed since the war had ended and the running had begun.  If she were honest with herself and awake enough to acknowledge that honesty, then she’d admit that it was probably the first peaceful sleep she’d known since the Bardfest and her last night of dancing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her sleep was not completely peaceful during those long days and nights.  Sometimes, her mind would open itself to Ronan’s realm only to be rebuffed and cast away.  Other times, it would be invaded by the talons of Sheru and she would be forced to cast his attention out.  During each of these times, the comfort of the bed would calm her, while the strength of the mastiff and one other would aid her during her horror or sorrow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the early hours of her sleep, when her mind was still lax, she found that she didn’t care who was with the mastiff.  Clearly, he trusted them.  Later, as the ache of her shoulder and the mending of her ribs grew itchy and intense, she would wonder who it was that administered the cool drops to her lips and softly cooed her back to sleep.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the fifth day, she lifted her lethargic gaze to the windows that were framed in silk sheers and watched the sun wink out.  She did not move or breathe for the longest time, her eyes transfixed by the way that the sheers moved in the breathy breeze that sent its chill tendrils through the air.  At her side, furthest from the window, the mastiff was stretched out and pressed against her thigh and hip.  His head rested lightly upon her pelvic bone, but he did not stir.  She knew, without a doubt, that he was awake and probably more than she was.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moments stretched as her sleepy mind came to terms with her surroundings.  Slowly, and with great care for the pain in her shoulder, she lifted her arm from the heavy blankets that covered her slight frame.  She gently touched the mastiff’s head and felt his ears lift slightly.  His breathing changed, she felt it against her thigh just as she felt his tail suddenly take to motion against her feet.  Thump, thump.  Thump, thump.  His tail seemed loud in the quiet room.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She silently struggled to not let the tears she felt building in her eyes spill and swallowed against the burn they created in her throat.  The peace of the growing night surrounded her and she felt security, a calm that she had thought would never come.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gently petting the mastiff’s head, she allowed herself a small cry and felt the relief of it make her limbs weak.  Exhausted at the end, she fell into a deep, healing slumber that lasted only a few hours.  When she woke a single candle burned in the room’s far corner and illuminated the face of her benefactor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Motion beyond the book propped on his knee drew his attention, pulling his gaze over to the bed where the girl had laid this past week.  He slowly replaced the tattered ribbon he had been using as a makeshift bookmark and closed the tome, laying it down on the small table at his side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He rose and strode forward slowly, drawing his long hair back and tying it loosely at the nape of his neck.  The girl stirred, her head shifting to one side letting her eyes meet his.  He resisted the smile that fought for control of his lips and stepped lightly to the far side of the bed, her gaze following him slowly.  She looked tired, which was not unexpected, but she still had that fierce determination lurking deep in those hazel orbs.  Good, he thought.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Perching lightly on the edge of the stuffed mattress, he brushed the stray hairs from her eyes, raising some color in her cheeks, and pressed the back of his hand against her forehead with a distant look of wondering on his face, then slid it down to her cheek and finally to her neck.  He pulled back at the loosely laced neckline, probing the dressing on her torn shoulders gently. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not meeting the girl&#039;s gaze, he pulled back the blanket which she laid beneath.  He lifted the silk shirt she still wore, exposing the bandaging across her abdomen as he bent close, his hand pressing lightly at her wounded side.  The girl winced slightly, absently shrugging and pushing the shirt down with her free hand. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re healing well, better than I would have expected,&amp;quot; the elf said, pulling the blanket higher again.  &amp;quot;Your arm?&amp;quot; he asked, indicating the shoulder he had no checked, &amp;quot;How does it feel?&amp;quot;  The girl gave him an odd look, shifting the arm slightly and wincing again. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Hurts, but wha’ doesnae kill ye…,&amp;quot; she said in a casual tone leaving the rest of the proverb to trail off.  She gave the elf that quizzical, childish look that was so characteristic of her to which he merely nodded.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;ve been sleeping for nearly a week,&amp;quot; he continued coolly, straightening his back and looking toward the open window, &amp;quot;I was not sure if you&#039;d wake, but I had faith in your strength.&amp;quot;  He stood again, moving to the window and pulling away from the long drapes.  A chill gust of fresh air ruffled their edges, sending the flame on the candle dancing shadows across the walls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Misconstruing his movement, she hoarsely said, “Dun close it, please.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her hand subconsciously rising from the mastiff’s head towards the elf causing her to wince in pain.  Feebly, she lowered it back to the waiting mastiff’s head and began to take stock in her surroundings.  The place was new but had a feeling of old to it that was oddly comforting to someone so young.  Her eyes slipped closed as she carefully drew her fingers to the neck of her shirt.  Trailing her fingers down her slight frame, she began to realize she wasn’t dressed in her normal clothing or even anything that she possessed.  The garment that draped her was far finer than anything that she had, or probably would ever own.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her body tensed, she half-heartedly stifled a groan and lifted her eyes to the other.  A bit of alarm showed in the edges and her face was a careful mask of forced joviality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He continued to stand at the window in the path of the breeze that was gathering strength as the weather changed and shifted.  His long hair was quickly loosed of its recent bindings and began to dance about his head in a strange halo created by the ethereal fingers of air that invaded the small bedroom.  Beyond the open panes, the sky darkened ominously as rain traversed the sky.  Sporadically, streaks of lightning played hop-scotch in the stratosphere and illuminated his features in a pale blue light.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Comforted by his quiet, and the way he did not rush towards her or stare at her, she swallowed the rising panic.  She’d been asleep for a week, she was still hurt, but not in ways that should cause her distress.  While it was true she wore clothing not her own, she rationalized, he was a man of honor and would never dream of doing anything untoward to her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Swallowing again, she quietly asked, “Whar ‘er my weapons an’ clothin’?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She glanced at the mastiff at her side as she spoke, and watched as he ducked his head beneath his paws.  Moments later, and before the elf could reply, he lifted his head from them again and seemed to wink at her.  Surely, no harm could have been that great if the mastiff was trying to play hide and seek with her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He turned to her, brushing his now loose hair behind his ears, and motioned toward the large padded chair next to the bed.  She in turn followed his gesture.  Piled clean and blood-free and perhaps cleaner than they’d been while in her possession, were the familiar tunic, boots, and longcoat that once adorned her.  Dangling from the back of the chair was her harness showing not only tell-tale signs of recent polishing but the bulge of her weapons.  She immediately recognized the form of her khopesh within its length, and a soft sigh slipped from her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tilting her head towards him once again, she purposefully sought to link with his cool steel grey gaze.  “How,” she began quizzically, her brow arching in wonder.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;{{creative-work | title = Whistler&#039;s Pass Epilogue, 5108 | type = short story | author = Selandriel | author-displayed = player of [[Selandriel]]}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elf caught her easily as she pitched forward, gently cradling the girl&#039;s head as it rolled freely on her limp shoulders.  Sweeping his free arm around her waist, he slowly lowered her to the ground, a deliberate care apparent in his movements.  She was still, save for the occasional rise and fall of her chest indicating she still drew breath.  He placed the back of his hand against her forehead and put an ear to her mouth and nose for a moment before drawing his face away from hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Concern crept across the elf&#039;s features as he started to inspect the girl&#039;s wounds, closely eyeing her dislocated shoulder and the opposite shoulder which displayed claw marks that trailed down to the upper arm.  Pulling aside her cloak, he frowned at the dark crimson staining its fleece lining and the tunic beneath.  Patches of the darkly stained tunic glistened with a slick coating of fresh blood, and the girl&#039;s eyebrows twitched slightly as he slid the tunic upward, revealing rent flesh that slowly oozed dark crimson. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wound was bad, but not the worst he&#039;d seen, and not beyond any help he could administer.  He rolled back onto his feet and stood, eyes sweeping his surroundings.  Where had he left his pack, and his cloak?  Some motion in his peripheral vision drew his attention, and he turned to see the mastiff stirring, slowly getting its legs underneath it again.  He smiled at the sight, One less friend to worry about, at least, he thought as he spotted his discarded cloak and satchel.  Fetching them, he returned to the girl to find the mastiff lying near her, his head inches from her own. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elf crouched next to the pair, dropping his belongings and running his hand over the mastiff&#039;s head, and scratching lightly behind its ears.  &amp;quot;Worry not, puppy.  She shall be as well as you soon enough,&amp;quot; he said in a soothing voice, perking the mastiff&#039;s ears momentarily and drawing a lazy wag from its tail.  He continued to pet it for a while, glancing over it to be sure it wasn&#039;t seriously injured and decided the mastiff looked well enough.  Much better shape than its companion, in any case. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a short exhaled sigh, the elf knelt down next to the girl, moving his satchel aside and spreading his cloak out on the ground beside her.  He carefully slipped his hands and arms beneath her, shifting her limp form onto the garment, cautiously brushing any offending snow from her back and hair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He pulled the satchel closer now, unfastening its clasp and throwing back its flap.  He rummaged through its contents briefly and removed a large leather canteen and a number of large rolls of narrow linen bandaging from within.  He neatly arranged these next to the girl before drawing forth a handful of plainly shaped vials from the kit at his belt, adding them to the rest of the items.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Reaching into his boot, he withdrew a murky silver vial and unstoppered it.  The vial was tilted over the girl&#039;s mouth where he allowed a few drops to fall.  He slowly rubbed the liquid over and inside her lips to aid in her absorption of it.  He restoppered the vial and slipped it back into his boot.  Resting his hands on his thighs, the elf waited.  Hopefully, you will not wake up in the midst of all this, now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The rise and fall of her chest grew more and more steady as the elf watched until finally he leaned forward and found it to be more rhythmic and controlled.  He then slipped his hand to his belt where the empty mouth of a dagger sheath protruded from beneath the folds of his shirt and met only air.  He glanced around belatedly remembering he had hurled his daggers at the creatures and spotted one still protruding from a prone creature’s neck, the other near to it still covered in this red-black blood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A frown found his face.  Those won&#039;t be any good, at least not until I can have them cleaned properly.  He straightened his back, hand reaching subconsciously to a third dagger he carried concealed from prying eyes.  No, that one won&#039;t do either.  Likely it would cause more harm than good, he thought, his hand stopping short.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The faintest of smiles brushed his lips as he leaned forward again, gingerly slipping his hand beneath the girl to the small of her back.  &amp;quot;I wonder,&amp;quot; he said, groping blindly.  After a moment’s searching a satisfied smile spread across his face and he pulled his hand out holding a small faenor dagger.  &amp;quot;Well played,&amp;quot; he said to the girl, testing the edge of the blade carefully.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, but you&#039;ll hate me for this,&amp;quot; he said, lifting her coat open and leaning forward again.  He brought the blade to the coat&#039;s seam, easily cutting through the stitching that ran its length and along the sleeve.  He tossed aside the fabric he had cut away from the coat, leaving her arm and the tunic beneath exposed. He repeated the process on the coat&#039;s other half.  The tunic followed and the vest beneath after as well, seams cut and crimson-stained fabric tossed aside.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elf inspected the wound in her side again, more closely with his now less obscured view, and cut away the hastily applied bandages loosely covering the area.  The bleeding was minimal, and the wound looked relatively clean, though he thought it better to be safe rather than sorry.  Who knew what kinds of pestilence those creatures&#039; claws carried.  He unrolled a generous length of the wider bandaging and soaked it with water from his canteen, wadding it up and gently cleaning the wounded area.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Satisfied, he repeated the process with her wounded right arm and shoulder and then finally set aside the soiled bandages.  He shifted his attention to the other arm, the shoulder now showing some swelling and discoloration.  With a deliberate intake of breath, he slowly lifted the arm into his hands and braced his knee on her chest just below the pit of her arm.  With a quick snap and a loud pop, he pulled the arm outward, setting the shoulder properly.  The girl&#039;s brow twitched slightly, but she did not wake.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;{{creative-work | title = Whistler&#039;s Pass III, 5108 | type = short story | author = Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav | author-displayed = player of [[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]]}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clouds shifted unnoticed through the sky bathing half the valley in a dull grey shadow that was punctuated sporadically with the golden light of dawn well on its way through the skies.  The puffy clouds, laden and cold, released their light white burden, which immediately began to float on the odd air currents that riddled this part of the world to the already icy cold ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Below, upon the valley floor, a macabre dance had begun in earnest.  Several victims to its play lay scattered upon the ground, the dark liquids of the life forces seeping from their prone forms to taint the fluffy white purity that lies beneath.  Within a ring of four tall trees, three figures were all that remained of the dance – an elf, a girl, and a beast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her lids were heavy, and the relief at seeing the elf join the battle had nearly overwhelmed her.  A quick glance at the limp mastiff lying twisted against a nearby tree trunk aided her in her resolve to fight on.  She struggled to rise in the slick ground, aware as she did that much of the crimson stain within the snow was her own blood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Placing her arm beneath her, she attempted to stand for what seemed like the millionth time.  Her left arm still would not respond and the sensation of pain was not dulling; it beat like an angry drummer to the rhythm of her heart.  Warily, she kept one eye upon the beasts as the elf cleaved through the second.  Time was ticking away on her and she knew she had to stand or all would be lost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Issuing a quiet apology to her khopesh, she stuck the blade into the ground and gave herself a mighty heave to her wobbly feet.  The groan that fell from her lips was nothing compared to the angry growl that shivered up her spine from the beast before her.  It gazed balefully between the girl and the elf, its hatred, and rage palpable.  Breathing deeply, she attempted to call upon the power of nature to aid her one last time in this battle but the words would not come.  The shock was beginning to coarse through her veins, and a fine tremor that had nothing to do with the cold was causing her lips and teeth to chatter.  Clenching her jaw, she stabilized her stance as best as she could and put her bad arm nearest the elf where she knew he would shield her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These were not times for formality.  No greetings passed between them.  Silently, they stood shoulder to shoulder and watched the beast seethe before them.  The seconds stretched between heartbeats feeling for the entire world like minutes bleeding into hours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beside her, the elf remained in his low, loose stance and never allowed the distance between them to grow greater than the span of one hand.  He stared ahead, waiting for the right moment to move.  In his mind’s eye, the potentials of the impending combat played rapidly over and over, like some morbid dream of death.  He skipped through myriad possibilities, each branching into another result, yet none seemed probable.  Clarity, at last, seeped into the blurred collection of thoughts, and the elf knew with certainty that the creature would move to his right – towards the girl.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then, the moment of movement was upon them.  Lunging forward with teeth and claws, the jackal grasped for its prey.  The elf, however, was ready and pivoted his body towards the girl bringing them both into a spin of evasion that placed his back to the creature and caused it to tumble past them.  His eyes met hers as they faced each other for the first time since his arrival, and he noted the heavy fatigue that discolored the flesh of her face.  His nose brushed past hers and he locked his strong gaze with hers.  Their irises expanded slightly in the shadow of their sudden proximity and cast the world around them in a strange hazy glow that allowed it to briefly melt away.  Eternity spilled through time and froze them for the shortest of seconds while his blue-grey gaze locked onto her glittering hazel orbs in silent communication.  Trust me, they bespoke her.  Parting his lips slightly, he allowed the briefest of grins to touch them, and then suddenly he was gone and open-air greeted her senses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Panic threatened to choke her, and her heartbeat in an odd, alarming staccato in her chest.  Narrowing her gaze through the empty space that suddenly left her wounded side naked and bare, she struggled to double grip her khopesh with her useless left hand.  It swung limply at her side in response.  Before her, the creature’s stumble had halted and his gaze, still filled with shock at the sudden absence of the offending elf, glittered with blind hatred.  Its lower lip twisted upward into a sneer that caused foul green saliva to spill froth from its blackened mouth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Steeling herself for the creature’s approach, she widened her stumbling stance in the fresh snow and willed her weary reflexes to respond. Her mind kept repeating a soft litany of hope over and over, but her flagging spirits were finding it hard to believe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He would not leave me, he would not leave me, it said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thrusting her khopesh into the intervening space, her arm throbbing, she stood ready to play her part in these final moments; no matter what they might be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its howling challenge jarred her body and caused her to jump despite her experience.  Charging at her, she watched it suddenly stumble in the snow.  A trail of crimson splattered across the pristine snow accompanied by its yowl of pure agony.  The beast was driven to its knees and skidded the last few feet towards her.  Issuing her own cry of challenge, she lunged with all her might and impaled the still moving beast upon her khopesh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shock registered briefly upon its features before it sped into action and attempted to wrestle the weapon from her grasp.  Its strength was beginning to outweigh her own, the strain pulling along her shoulders and back.  It won out, however, when it began to slash wildly at her with its black talons.  Its wicked claws scraped down her side and limp arm, reopening wounds and create fresh ones as it rent her flesh  She skipped backward by instinct and watched in growing disbelief as it frantically clawed at the blade protruding from its chest.  Gripping her hilt with slick, twisted hands, it wrenched the khopesh free, removing most of its chest and heart with it, and then keeled over in a growing pool of its own blood and waste.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other side of death stood the elf, his blades poised and bloody. He casually relaxed his stance, an easy grin finding its way to his lips.  It was only then that she saw the grizzly gashes in the beast’s calves and thighs.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He had not left her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Numbly, she moved forward in a wounded shuffle.  Her right arm still responded, the left dead at her side, but was rent from shoulder to the elbow.  She lifted her hand towards him and watched in growing fascination as blood dripped from her fingertips.  Were it not for the elf, she’d have fallen face-first into the recently deceased beast at her feet.  He caught her as her legs gave out beneath her, and her body succumbed to the growing shock that gripped her system.  Blackness began to cloud her vision and into its welcoming arms she whispered, “Thank you.”&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;{{creative-work | title = Whistler&#039;s Pass II, 5108 | type = short story | author = Selandriel | author-displayed = player of [[Selandriel]]}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warbling softly in the predawn hours, a single lark made its way across the skies of the sleepy city.  It flew gracefully among the still-lit glaesan orbs that illuminated the glistening cobbles and twittered softly at the magnificent city’s citizens as they began the remedial tasks that kept the bustling city functioning.  Leaning into the gentle undercurrents and airflows, the lark drifted towards its favored perch within the city walls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The lush garden rose high in the air, the third story of a prominent and favored inn.  The crimson glow of Tilaok reflected off of the glaesan skylight set in the center of the garden and briefly illuminated a lone figure gazing outward upon the sleepy city.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Back winging in surprise, the lark’s song was reduced to a startled squawk at the elf that stood before him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling slowly, a hint of amusement in the man’s eyes, the elf lifted his hand towards the bird and spoke gently.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You will find no harm here, little lark.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The lark, not amused by the intrusion in its pre-morning flight, tilted his head at the elf and chirped.  He then promptly turned his back on him, drawing out a small, throaty chuckle. &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
The elf stretched, running a hand idly through his long, raven-hued hair.  He&#039;d fallen asleep on the bench in the garden again and felt the resulting twinge in his lower back keenly.  Casually rubbing the last sands of sleep from his eyes, he rolled his shoulders and shrugged away his grogginess into the night now passing. &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
He gingerly stepped up onto the bench and gazed out over the city of Ta’Illistim, drinking in one of its better views.  A stiff wind blew past from behind him, causing his grey cloak to dance lightly around him.  It smelled lightly of snow.  A smile crept across his face as he thought of the trip through the mountains he would shortly be embarking on.  He was going home. &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
Home was not something he considered any one place to be, having been very prudently on the move for so many upon many years.  The last time he had such a place to call when he was still but a child in the eyes of Elves, disaster struck and continued to haunt him along every step.  His gaze shifted down to the golden key that had found its way into his hand, the one whichever hung around his neck.  His thumb absently traced its contours and etchings, the tiny flowing script along its stem.  Home was something he could not afford to have. &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
Stepping back and down off of the bench, he reached for the faded grey leather satchel sitting on its edge and shouldered it in one smooth motion.  He swept from the rooftop garden, down the ladder through the trap door, and out of the inn.  His face was drawn as he refastened his cloak so as to hide his form completely.  Indeed, he was going home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commoners were slowly moving about the streets and making their way towards their places of employment.  In their midst traveled a scatter of scholars either too poor to house libraries of their own, or too eager to garner knowledge from their peers to await the daylight already began to pinken the horizon.  The glaesan orbs illuminated their companionable faces as he passed them on his way down the var towards the city’s gates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The path was a familiar one for many, but it was with a certain amount of relief that he passed through their pennanted arches and out into the trails that ambled away from the more inhabited environs.  All around him life began to stir as the city and its supports wakened.  As he traveled further from the city itself and domestic life, he felt his shoulders easing with the calm that traveling into the wilderness brought.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the time he crossed the last domesticated bridge and was well on his way beyond the passes that lead to Cysaegir, the sun had begun to trickle through the branches of the trees.  A warm golden haze hung upon the horizon accompanied by the sweet song of whippoorwills and robins.  Rainbows clung to the humidity that rose high above a waterfall, and he paused briefly to drink before continuing on his trek.  The desire to be home was flooding his limbs and he was eager to see it come to pass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He passed into darkness for a time, the peaks of the high mountains surrounding Whistler’s Pass not quite willing to release their cling on the night.  The air began to change around him as the more frigid portions of the journey surrounded him and he welcomed them with an absence born him by his elven heritage.  As the snows began to thicken the bird songs that surrounded his journey began to be punctuated by the clean sounds of snow crunching beneath his feet.  In the darker, colder valley he paused occasionally to enjoy the flora that managed to cling to life but largely, he moved forward at a steady if sedate pace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At some point during his descent he noticed that the air seemed thicker as if the woods were holding their breath with anticipation.  He realized, suddenly, that the morning chorus had ceased its pleasant songs, and that the light buzz of insects was oddly absent.  Lifting his head to the sky, he noted that the sun was slipping past the peaks and kissing the treetops.  That’s when the howl reached his ears, shattering the stillness of the path.  The chill sound of the canine voice sent a raging challenge through the air.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elf began running, stepping lightly between the tightly packed trees with a singular look of purpose on his face.  He knew that howl, that sound that had echoed through the forest moments ago and torn through his senses.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vestiges of memory stirred deep in his mind and attempted in vain to place from where exactly he knew the sound.  Nothing but fragments arose in response, merely blurred images of displaced sounds and smells.  Yet, where his memory failed, his heart sang, and that alone was enough to lend haste to his steps.  It was the one feeling that had not yet failed him once.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The last of the closely packed tree trunks passed as the elf broke into the clearing as fast as his legs would carry him.  His eyes hastily scanned across the scene before him, noting the mastiff to his left, to whom the early howl no doubted belonged, and a small crouched form over which a strange creature loomed.  His brow creased and again that feeling of familiarity crept over him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He caught a brief flicker of fiery red hair as a khopesh came up to deflect one of the creature&#039;s blows.  Recognition flashed across his face, quickly replaced by a hardened expression.  Instantly his hands dropped to the hilts of two daggers tucked into his belt.  He touched down lightly and sped forward, loosening his cloak and drawing his blades as he went. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another blow came down, which the girl deflected at the last possible moment.  Her arm was growing numb from the repeated blows, and sharp pains flooded the other, still limp at her side.  She shuffled on the ground in a vain attempt to regain her footing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mastiff charged in, snapping at the creature&#039;s ankles wildly, the occasional bark and growl escaping his maw.  In response, the creature snapped out with its leg and caught the mastiff square in the shoulder.  The dusky mastiff was sent sprawling through the snow with a yelp that left him motionless moments later against a nearby tree. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fury filled the girl&#039;s eyes, kindling her fatigued frame into action.  She struck out with her weapon, guiding a furious slash up between the creature&#039;s legs.  It howled, a discordant and painful sound, as the blade cut through its thigh and left a garish gaping wound in its wake, and brought its hands up high for a return attack, the clawed tips glistening darkly already with her blood. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A flash of silver distracted the girl for a moment as a dagger lodged itself firmly into the creature&#039;s shoulder, sending it staggering backward and bringing its attention up over her head.  She took the opportunity and shuffled back along the ground, putting as much distance between herself and the stunned creature as she could but it was hard to maneuver with one good arm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Leaves and twigs began to drift down from above accompanied by a loud rustling that filled the air.  A pair of creatures, brethren to the last, dropped from the limbs of the trees above and landed awkwardly next to the first creature.  Pulling the dagger from its shoulder and tossing it aside, the creature issued a low growl from its black lips, hatred narrowing its eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sailing through the air, a second dagger zipped past the creature before the first had left his hands, and was embedded in the beast to its hilt in his throat.  It dropped to the ground clawing frantically for the offending piece of metal.  Dark lifeblood punctuated his flailing attempts with gargles that eventually flooding its gaping mouth. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shaking her head to clear the pain, the girl turned her head to look back over her wounded shoulder in an attempt to find the new assailant.  Her head barely had time to turn when a dark shadow crossed her face.  The elf glided through the air above her, his arms crossed with his hands upon hilts, and his dark hair trailing behind him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He landed lightly before her, drawing forth a pair of short swords, and immediately spun into action.  Crouching low, his attack caught the second creature just behind the ankle and hooked his foot, sending it tumbling to the ground.  Momentum carried him through his spin and he righted himself back onto his feet.  He brought his swords out away from his body, slashing outward at the first creature&#039;s abdomen. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The creature skipped back a few steps, easily avoiding the oncoming blades, and noted too late that they would have missed by a wide margin even had it not moved.  The blades changed their angle and came down onto the second creature&#039;s neck, severing its head cleanly from its body as the elf spun back to a low crouch.  He gazed up at the once again lone creature, his eyes burning with a cold, calm fire. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A grin crept across the elf&#039;s face as he watched the creature’s eyes narrow with realization.  The attack was never meant to land, but merely to drive it back away from the second creature.  No, not meant to drive it away from the other.  The girl, he was putting distance between himself and the girl. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The creature&#039;s face split in its own mockery of a grin, dark lips contorting to reveal its jagged teeth.  A howling growl of challenge hissed outward from deep within the creature’s abdomen, its body shivering with cold rage.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;{{creative-work | title = Whistler&#039;s Pass I, 5108 | type = short story | author = Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav | author-displayed = player of [[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]]}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Phoen’s kiss touched the high glacial peaks of Whistler’s Pass and caused a prismatic swirl of colors to dance on the snowy slopes.  The colorful light trickled down to the coniferous vegetation of the forest that ringed the peaks and was quickly consumed in its thickening depths.  Sunlight would not touch the lower points of the valleys between the peaks for many hours, though it would lend the shadowy expanses a somber grey hue that was a minor relief from the dark of night.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without the sunlight to warm it, the deeper sections of the pass were colder than some of the highest points and it was in these shadows that the young half-elf roamed.  Cold and slightly bruised from her recent flight out of Ice Mule Trace, she wandered the trails between trees with a dog at her side that nearly reached her shoulders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She’d exited the mine shafts of the Dwarves several hours previously, her tiny frame trembling at the chill winds that coursed through the higher ranges.  More than once she’d noted to herself that if she were full-blooded she’d naturally have no problems with the arctic temperatures, and just as frequently cursed her human father for giving her this lingering chill that would not abate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her feet were encased in ice that was starting to send stabbing pains up her calves, and the wounds she’d earned from the previous days were beginning to burn.  She had created impromptu poultices to wrap against them, not wanting to alert any of the locals of her exact location, but the traveling had aggravated them beyond proper healing and oddly enough the fresh flow of her own blood down her left side was the only warmth she left.  Fleetingly, she wondered if that too hot drip heralded a fever, but stumbled and quickly lost the thought in the accompanying pangs of pain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though he’d been born in the southern tropics of River’s Rest on the borders of Hendor, the mastiff seemed unaffected by the chill climates.  He roamed through the trees and pathways at an easy gait, his ears shifting here and there at various sounds.  She had tended to him with the utmost of attention after their previous encounters.  If he could speak to her, he’d have chided her for the attention she gave to him instead of turning it inward to herself where it belonged.  More frequent than not, the mastiff would come close to her side to encourage her on or whimper in sympathy when she seemed to stumble.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The growing numbness in her extremities seemed to be seeping closer and closer to the dull ache of longing and pain that weighed so heavily in her heart.  Or perhaps, it was that inner despair and weight that was spreading outward to her limbs and not the arctic winds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She trudged on in silence with barely enough will in her heart to hope that the coming sun would warm her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slanting through the trees they watched her, their shadows growing longer as the light of Phoen wheedled its way across the peaks.  The slender pine trees were nearly bare at the tops, their pine needles scattered about the snow-strewn grounds, but they were growing thicker the further she wound her path and it was there that they would make their presence known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They picked their way along the limbs of the snow-crowned conifers, stepping lightly through the breaks in the sheets of green needles.  Their lanky forms swept along with alien grace, shrouds of dark tattered fabric stirring occasionally in the crisp gusts of tundra wind.  Their movements held a certain quality more of animal than man, accentuated by their occasional pauses to taste the air. &lt;br /&gt;
  	&lt;br /&gt;
The pack only vaguely followed the faint tracks in the snow below, cutting across and back again as often as not, driven forward by an instinct to track.  Their passing brought an unnatural hush to the world about them, leaving only the brief rustle of branch and needle as their touched down upon their next perch. &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
They were getting closer, and they knew it.  The air held that sweet tang of blood and ichor which drove them ever onward, and it was growing stronger, thicker.  It flooded their senses, and this seemed to hasten their movement, their feet barely touching down upon a branch before leaping off to the next. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
---&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sunlight at long last cut through the mist of cold that clung to the trees and crunching snow of the forested pass.  She stopped as it touched her bright pink cheek, and turned her face into its golden rays.  There was always light, she reminded herself, and the cold that gripped her heart clenched spasmodically.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With enough light at last with which to see by, she began to slowly unravel herself from her coverings to get a clear view of what her night&#039;s walking had done to the wound at her side.  She shivered at the sudden cold that her release of the blanket allowed inward and marveled that she should be sweating while shivering.  The mastiff’s anxious sounds at her side only confirmed for her that things were not going well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With numb fingers, she worked her pauldrons from her shoulders and began to slowly ease her way out of her corselet.  Each buckle bore a new jarring of her cold body, and her breath was soon ragged from the exertion.  The larger pieces of the armor were worked off of her slight frame and unceremoniously dropped to the ground beside her blanket.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her vision swam with tiny pinpricks of golden light.  As she swayed from the momentary effects of vertigo, the mastiff drew closer to her and added his weight to her legs.  If he had been only a few hands taller, she’d have forgone embarrassment and ridden him to the gates of Illistim, and in the condition she was in, he’d probably have let her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not wanting to let the cold seep closer to her bones, she shrugged her way back into her fleece-lined longcoat with a small sigh of relief.  She didn’t, however, button it closed but instead dipped her fingers to her tunic to pull it free of her thick pants and coiling belt.  The natural-hued linen was saturated with a warm sanguine liquid that was lightly pigmented with green from forgotten herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Frowning, she gingerly prodded the wound.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They stopped suddenly, the pack as one, perching on hand and foot two score hands above the snow-blanketed ground.  Crimson speckles shone brightly against the pristine white to one side of the fresh tracks.  One of the tatter-shrouded forms clambered down the trunk from its resting place and examined the droplets curiously.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A clawed hand wrapped haphazardly with dirty linen strips stretched forth to touch the blood-stained snow and up to touch its blackened lips.  A sibilant hiss issued from its mouth accompanied by a small cloud of mist that formed in the air before it.  Its body wracked with strange shudders as it crouched in the snow.  A wheeze followed, shaking the creature’s shoulders with twisted mirth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suddenly, it was off, padding along the trail cut through the snow-laden ground.  A rustle filled the air above, the rest of its pack mates following suit and dropping the occasional drift of snow from branch to ground.  The creature ran on, its pace accelerated, clawed hands hanging limply at its sides and behind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The scent of its prey was thick in the air, more pungent than it had been the entire night before.  The quarry had stopped, and the wounds inflicted from the beast’s predecessors were exposed.  The chill air betrayed the pair ahead, carrying along with it a trail more surely than any left along the ground.  The pack closed in, its movement little more than a whisper on the wind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Further ahead, the mastiff&#039;s nose twitched as a crisp breeze cut through the trees from behind the pair, and a low growl escaped his now bared teeth.  His head turned away from the girl, ears twitching to catch something his eyes did not see.  She noticed his behavior, looking up from the bandage she had begun applying to the wound in her side.  Unconsciously, she brushed some stray hair from her face with crimson-tipped fingers, eyeing her companion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another growl slipped through the mastiff&#039;s teeth, this one louder than the last.  The girl put her feet beneath her, coming up in a low crouch, her eyes scanning the snowy landscape around her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wha’ is it,&amp;quot; she asked, &amp;quot;Wha’ duh ye see?&amp;quot;  The mastiff stirred and backed toward her, his ears turning this way and that, flattening back in the moments between.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Adrenaline quickened her blood causing her pain and fatigue to fade from the forefront of her thoughts.  Instinctively, she reached for her khopesh while simultaneously scanning the trees where her companion’s gaze lingered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A brief glance was given to the armor at her feet, and she mourned the loss of its protection.  She knew she’d lose more time, and energy as wounded as she was, strapping it back in place if she tried to retrieve it.  She also knew that in critical moments it might force her to expose more weaknesses as she was encumbered with its many bindings.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instead, she rose slowly to her feet and stepped away from the accruements to warily seek something to safely place at her exposed back.  The mastiff moved in step with her, his head tilted at the distance with a low growl dripping from his throat.  His stance was wide, and his nostrils flared with each breath he drew in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like lightning, a sudden thought streaked across her mind and she began to cajole the powers of nature to answer her plea.  The cold was swiftly leaking from her limbs as the last words of the spell tumbled from her pale lips and within seconds she had melted into her surroundings. &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
The air grew silent, a stark death eating away at the land around her.  She felt it at her core, a void where there was slight warmth before.  Branches swayed as a quiet rustle filled the stillness, a stray cone dropping to the ground below a nearby tree.  Her eyes darted, searching out what she knew was there but could not see, something that was stalking her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the gaze of vultures on carrion, they moved about her in a circle that slowly tightened into a constrictive ring.  The coppery sweet scent of her blood called to them strongly.  There she was, and they would not lose her.  Where other&#039;s had failed, they would triumph and the small fire-haired bane of the now crumbling Alliance would be refueled by her death. &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
An unbearable weight settled upon her from across the clearing and she knew with certainty that the threat emanated from there.  Shifting her weight, she felt her spell bleed away from the strain of time and knew that the sheltering shadows were slipping away.  Her breath grew heavy with anticipation, and the mastiff at her side let loose a wild howl that tore through the chill forest.  Birds took to flight from their silent perches hidden in the canopy above, snow littering the ground at their departure. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thought of her death curled the lips of the one on the ground into a maniacal grin, flashing crimson-stained teeth.  Its tongue flicked at the air, seeking to taste her presence.  Its nearby brethren turned slightly to regard it, standing a bit taller and straighter than the hunched forms of the others.  Leaning forward slightly, drawing its arms into a ready stance, it sped forward, eyes fixed on the spot where the girl and her mastiff had been only moments before.  It could still smell her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her eyes found them the moment they broke through the surrounding brush.  The one before her, taller than the others, rushed directly to where she was crouched and ready.  Another pair burst forth to her left and right, quickly closing the intervening distance.  The mastiff&#039;s hackles rose as he lowered his head to the ground, a deep growl vibrating through his chest to escape between his bared teeth.  His ears twitched, and so did hers, but a moment too late.  She was already diving to her left when a fourth beast loamed directly before her escape path. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her momentum sent her tumbling into the creature&#039;s legs even though she tried to tuck her body into a tight ball that might allow her to roll free.  The beast struck out at her exposed back with its ebon claws.  They found purchase in her coat, snagging at the hem and reducing it to jagged rents of fleece and suede. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mastiff, on the other hand, broke right and dashed between two of the creatures.  In passing, he dipped his muzzle to the one nearest him and tore into its ankle.  Driving onward, the mastiff shook its head sending reddish-black blood in an arc across the pristine snows.  The creature howled in pure agony and tumbled into a tree headfirst, the impact pulping its collar bone and neck with a sickening crunch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Across the clearing, the girl reversed her momentum and rolled to the balls of her feet as she performed a wild slash with her khopesh.  The blade tore through the pit of one creature&#039;s arm and up through its shoulder, sending the arm hurling away onto the ground.  Reversing her blade at the last possible moment, she brought the hilt towards its snapping head.  The blow connected straight into the crease of the creature&#039;s jaw, dropping it to the ground.  She spun free as it began to twitch in its death throes.  Her eyes sought the snow-covered ground as she rapidly tried to access her situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Too many, her mind screamed.  She was only just joined in combat and already the original rush of adrenaline was beginning to bleed away, much like the now heavily flowing wound at her side.  She watched as three more joined the fray, their steps paced out and slower.  They would be more cautious now that they had seen her move, but they would also know where to strike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She breathed raggedly, the cold air burning her lungs, and made an effort to calm the fine tremor that had started to race through her hands.  Planting her shield in the ground she softly began another plea to the powers of nature, one different from the first.  She caught sight of the mastiff slowly circling back into the clearing to her left,  and she knew she could count on him to take that side, but still, there was her exposed right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The last syllable of her spell formed on her lips and she rose to shout it into the cold air, the heat of her breath forming a mist that quickly filled with the hum and buzz of hundreds of insects.  They broke across the creatures to her left and divided in half to drive two of the dark things to the ground.  At the same time, the mastiff launched into the left and drove one beast into another.  Their legs coiled and the trio went down into a ball of claws, maws, and limbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She rushed at the still-standing leader and drove her shield into his face while holding her khopesh at an angle to her body in an attempt to deflect the oncoming blow of his friend.  The leader saw the blow coming and greeted her shield with open hands, his grip firmer and stronger than hers.  She felt more than saw her khopesh sink into the other beast but was too busy wrestling for her shield to follow through with any kind of damaging blow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cracking loudly through the air, she heard the sound of her shoulder popping from its socket long before the shock of it registered through her torso.  Within seconds her arm hung limply at her side, her shield somewhere far away from where the beast snapping at her throat had thrown it.  Searing pain in her side bespoke the uselessness of her khopesh, which she vainly attempted to raise defensively before her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breath escaped her lungs in a rush, her feet having been swept from beneath her and by some miracle of fate, chance, or pure luck a dormant spell wrapped around her sent a swirl of earthy thorns into a protective shell about her.  The wicked barbs deterred her two attackers from following through with what would assuredly be a death strike, the lashing ends gleaming with a sickly green liquid.  Foam began to form on the smaller creature’s lips, a testament to the poison that dripped from its veins.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lying on her back, she blinked dazedly as the leader came at her again.  Her khopesh was up, the hilt held firmly in her right hand but her fingers were beginning to numb and blackness was creeping across her vision.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

[[Charna Ja&#039;Varrel&#039;Kav]] is a citizen of [[Solhaven|&#039;Haven]] who writes stories and poems about life in [[Elanthia]].  She has a friend named [[Cosain]] that is her constant companion.  She is a [[Seer]] by profession.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Youngest of five, Charna is the child of a [[sylvankind|sylvan]] woman named Saofria and a human [[Talador|Taladorian]] man that Charna never knew.  She was raised by her three oldest brothers – [[Fleckle]], [[Drigore]] and [[Ghrym]] – in the town of [[Icemule Trace]].  At age 16 she met her brother [[Nyrithorn]] for the first time, and the two have an odd relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving Icemule Trace, shortly after meeting her brother Nyrithorn, Charna was taken under the wing of Lady [[Songie Fillee]] – the Matriarch of [[Oleani]]’s Temple in Solhaven, and learned to shed much of her wild, boyish nature.  As the years progressed she was adopted as a child of [[Wulfhen]] and [[Laleena]].  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She once held the postion of Co-Secretary to [[Willow Hall]], Captain of the Fighting forces of [[H.E.R.T.]], Head Scryvner of the [[Free Holders]], Co-Secretary of [[Cairnfang Manor]] and Head Gypsy of the [[Gypsy Troupe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charna has since abandoned all of those titles and simply wanders the lands with her companion Cosain; her eyes on the moons, her fingers touching a key, and her spirit bound to a scythe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One day, she hopes to finish weaving her ribbon ladder and that it will be long enough to let her climb to the [[Constellations_of_the_Northern_Sky | Constellation of the Handmaidens]] so that she can take her place amount her sisters.&lt;br /&gt;
