	I cannot say I would be the best choice, as "best" is a relative term, I simply ask to be considered for this role and have the people decide. I first walked these streets in 5120, and was recieved with open arms. After a short time I was recalled to Bourth, yet upon my return earlier this year I was again greeted with warmth and welcome. I am a member of The House of the Rising Phoenix~~, a squire in the Order of the Silver Gryphons,~~ and a member of the Landing Militia. My history may be short, but this city has a strong grasp upon my heart, and I can only hope to do my best to fulfill my duties if I am elected.

			'''1. What does Wehnimer’s Landing mean to you?'''<br>
			It means freedom.At its best, the Landing is an alternative to monarchy where one’s birth has nobearing on what kind of person they are or life they can have. At its worst, aplayground for Imperial fugitives and conspiracy theorists. While Hendor infringingupon our self governance threatens this so does becoming a nationalistic cultdrawing a pretend line in the black sands between “outsiders” and those “fromhere.”But above all it is a home for folks that wouldn’t be accepted anywhere else.

			'''2. What do you feel you can bring to Wehnimer’s Landing ifserving as regional envoy?'''<br>
			Focus, keen observation, insight, fashion sense, and the only head harder than Thadston's. As well as international rapport and cache. Not a member of a clandestine criminal organization.

			'''3. What are goals you would like to accomplish for the Landing,how would you do this?'''<br>
			* Become an ally to the Northern Confederation
			* Restore Wehnimer’s relationship with the Elven Nations.
			* Mend the trust of the average citizen with their elected officials
			* Distinguish Wehnimer’s Landing as an autonomous entity from the Empire

			'''4. Describe your approach to building good rapport and relationships, and why strong alliances are important?'''<br>
			Food and asking questions. Let them underestimate you. No one can accomplish anything by themselves. You are only as strong as your relationships.

			'''5. Describe your connection to Wehnimer's Landing, your history with the town and its people, and why this makes you the best choice for Regional Envoy?'''<br>
			* I was a refugee from Talador after its takeover by Jantalar. I was an officer of the old Wehnimer's Guard during the Jantalar and Vornavis conflict.
			* I was Walkar's lawyer when Grishom Stone and Barnom Slim conspired to remove him and framed him for murder.
			* Ran for Mayor in 5120 and 5121
			* Identified and negotiated terms for the withdrawal of the enemy General known as the Fist. Not only getting the truth about Vlashandra known, but later a settlement from Socius Leiffen during his time as the Fist.
			* Later, was one of those that pierced Vlashandra with a bane arrow sealing away her magic just moments after marrying Thadston to a Bleakstone statue of Lylia and the ghost within.
			*Early investor into the mines where Baystone was discovered.
			* Brokered Aslyum for Elves fleeing the Empire in Ta’Illistim for elves from all houses while Chaston’s Edict was still in effect.

	I am a member of the Silvergate Inn, having been inducted by Enegue himself. Aside from this, and membership in the Adventurer’s Guild, I hold no positions, titles, or ranks with any faction or force. This frees me to act as an ambassador to the will of the people and their chosen representatives, rather than be beholden to the whims of any foreign government or institutional power. As an elected Envoy, I would also continue to declare that I will take up no title nor role in any organization that would compromise my ability to act as an unbound representative of the town and its people.

			'''1. What does Wehnimer's Landing mean to you?'''<br>
			Wehnimer's Landing is a free city.<br>

			This has been said many times, by many different people. Perhaps each of those people meant something different when they said it. Perhaps they each came to the Landing, as so many people do, seeking that particular sort of freedom they imagined it might allow. Perhaps they even disagree as to whether the sort of freedom the other seeks is preferable or wise.<br>

			It does not matter. The Landing is large enough for all of them, and all their conceptions of freedom. We do not all agree, nor need we all agree. But we can come together, in this place, and live alongside one another, and protect each other, and perhaps in this way come to understand each other and be compatriots, regardless of our disagreements; and in those disagreements, we may find greatness arises from a hundred different views and approaches, each eager to aid when a problem rears its head.<br>

			Perhaps that is what being a free city truly means.<br>

			'''2. What do you feel you can bring to Wehnimer's Landing, if serving as a Regional Envoy?'''<br>
			As an Envoy, I will seek to provide Wehnimer's Landing with the calm and considered representation in other cities and capitals that a small town of great moment deserves. It is easy, in a town so full of strong wills, to be caught up in the challenges of politics within the walls. An Envoy's eyes must look outwards. I will always be ready to speak up for the Landing in any court, royal or republican, foreign or close at hand, and remind people that our gates are always open, that we wish nothing but peaceful friendship, and that opportunities grow in the streets of Wehnimer's Landing like flowers in a field, waiting for those willing to stoop to pluck them from the ground.

			'''3. What are the goals you would like to accomplish for Wehnimer's Landing? How would you do this?'''<br>
			I wish nothing but peace for Wehnimer's Landing. When I leave office in two years, I would like those years to be remembered as the calmest and least eventful of our long history. I hope to bring this about by building relationships and forging agreements with powers both great and small, benevolent and malevolent. I will be happy to treat with any who seek to meet with us, whether they are a powerful kingdom or a plucky alliance of pirates, if doing so will leave the Landing more secure. Our enemies should quail before us, knowing the strength of our friends.

			'''4. Describe your approach to building good rapport and relationships, and why strong alliances are important?'''<br>
			In my time as a priest, I have learned that a proper prayer should be three things: respectful, direct, and brief. The same applies to any form of diplomacy. We should be ready to meet with friends and foe, hesitant to give offense or to recognize it, truthful whenever possible, and devoted to finding the common ground on which we may both stand. It is hard to strike another when you see yourself reflected in their eyes. Instead we may offer our hands to help each other when we are in need, and take care of one another without counting the cost, knowing that the same will be done in turn for us.

			'''5. Describe your connection to Wehnimer's Landing, your history with the town and its people, and why this makes you the best choice for Regional Envoy?'''<br>
			I have been in Wehnimer's Landing only a year. In that time, I have been a campaign manager, a militia member, a researcher, a mining teacher, and a defender of the Landing. I list only the opportunities I seized, not the countless others that presented themselves. I did not intend, when I first arrived, to consider this my home, but the year I have spent has taught me me that the Landing is a city where things are possible that can be done nowhere else. Perhaps it is a city where a citizen of only a year could rise to the office of Envoy. Perhaps this would show, more than anything else, that Wehnimer's Landing is a city where anyone can prosper and succeed.

			'''6. Do you belong to any organizations, inside or outside of Wehnimer's Landing?'''<br>
			I am a member of the Wehnimer's Landing Militia and the Black Hand Trading Company. I am also a member of the Order of Eternal Light and the Beacon Hall Archive.
