Mature flowering plum trees line the northern edge of the walk, adding a soft fragrance to the night air as their shadows dance in the warm light of the fire. You also see a crimson sparkler, a crimson sparkler, the Myasarie disk, the Githros disk, the Taenarion disk, a gold sparkler, a gold sparkler, the Sweetsin disk, the Aqt disk, a basket of campaign medals, a basket of sparklers, a strudy construction barricade blocking further travel west and a crackling bonfire.

I would also like to thank the Argent Mirror Myasara for sending Guard Captain Murstyr into Old Ta'Faendryl. The aid of the Shining City will not be forgotten. I am certain there are more deserving names, but there is dining and dancing to come and I have some individual awards to issue.

Your calm demeanor in the face of overwhelming evil was a comforting presence for us all. When I assumed the role of Steward of House Vaalor, I requested you read King Tyrnian his last rites before your fellow Legion members. You did not hesitate. With no time to prepare, you performed admirably and your words brought a sense of peace and closure to myself, if not us all. Though I am not as often out among the people as I would like, I do hear things. I hear citizens and legionnaires alike refer to you with such terms as "The Angel of Ta'Vaalor" and "The Spiritual Leader of Ta'Vaalor." These are words of high praise that I cannot disagree with.
