On 'Duty'

[Ankan 2875]

To the public notice board in the Haelun’or Tavern, a poster with is pinned. The poster is of a bright, fairly sizable paper, the handwriting which covered it’s surface fine and easy to read. “On ‘Duty’” the heading read, in bright blue ink. Under it, a small painting of swan, with bright watercolors could be found.

On ‘Duty’

6th of Malin's Welcome, 1647

 

 

beak raised pompously,

the swan spread her wings wide,

perfected posture.

 

 

Like the swan takes pride in it’s supreme reign over the pond, we, the Mali’aheral, ought to take pride in the passion and art as well as the fruit our commitment to it bears. On the path of Maehr’sae Hiylun’ehya, ‘knowledge and health’, hard work and sacrifice for your kin is absolutely necessary. Idleness, a lack of meaning and responsibility, leads to decline of the individual’s moral, and thereby in-effect her purity, as well as the decadence of our blessed Silver Sohaerate of Haelun’or. All Mali’thill, Children of Silver, must seek an occupation and contribute to the progression of Mali’aheral society and science. For it is her duty.

 

Like the swan patrols the pond with vigor and pride, we must seek our own calling. Responsibility comes in many forms, and each must find her own. The poet enriches our lives with the beauty of words. The sillumir, a diraar of his blood, protects us from the horrors and foes clawing at our city. The tailor blesses our people with fabulous wear, dresses and robes worthy of touching Mali’aheral skin. They are all united in the equal importance of their contribution, and pride in their profession.

 

Idleness and ‘unemployment’ are to be a thing of the past. The Mali’thill will progress through activity and passion. I call for all Mali’aheral of Haelun’or to seek out Okariran of the Council, the Maheral or Sohaer to announce their preferred profession and responsibility. Her contribution is not just necessary, it is also her duty.

 

Maehr’sae Hiylun’ehya, Mali’aheral tayna’fyu!
