eittitica [RP] A Temporary Farewell

[Periphonics 557]

[This entire piece is written in Kharahatla, those not fluent would be unable to understand]

 

My kin, this is a letter I never expected to write, and yet my dreams are haunted by visions and voices.

Khalenwyr calls to me as it never has before. Each night I find myself upon the ancient stone paths, my steps softened by the lichens that creep through the cracks. Each night, I see the moon rise and fall countless times, whilst I remain present. This call can mean only one thing; I am being summoned. There is a greater will, a greater path for our people that must be followed, if we are to prosper to our greatest potential

The presence of the Great Beasts has shifted our path, our connection to Metztli strengthens whilst she slumbers, and new opportunities arise. I have been the Aelkos of Eittitica for many years, reigning with 3 or lonesome, and in such time I have done all I can to learn to best serve our people. But, in this era of change, there are lessons one cannot learn simply by trial. There are things that may only be taught through the divine.

 

After deep consideration, it is the decision of the Elders and Aelkos that this holy summoning must be answered, so that we Kharajyr may progress with the holy guidance of the Great Beasts and the Kha of the past. I will be making a secondary Lunar Pilgrimage to learn what it is I have been called for, so that when I make my return we will know how to progress.  Thus, it is with this choice that temporary changes must be put in place. Until my return, Eittitica will be ruled by a singular Aelkos; Yhl’Xo’Siyaj K’ak’ Xibalamticatl. He will guide the Kharajyr with his wisdom as one fluent with our ways, and direct us to building a firm foundation while I am taught the means in which we shall proceed.

As his right hand, in preparation for his future as a Kharajyr who will be remembered for centuries to come, Sa'Bartixci Maxwell I hereby name, to assist in day-to-day upholding of our laws and beliefs. In this time, it is my will that he be taught by the present Elders of Eittitica, taught of the Old Ways and religion, as much as deemed fit for his position. He is to be spoken to as a superior, for this is what he shall be. Our youth are our future, and we must solidify this by teaching their eldest.

I expect great things in my absence, our kind are on the rise and shall see a return to glory, this I am certain of. To ensure this prosper, I shall leave my kin with these parting commandments.

1. Honour the ways of our past, while growing into this uncertain future. Our fallen kin, the lands we have lost, they remain in our blood. Do not abandon these ways to try and blend in with the furless
2. Violence for violence is the rule of beasts, and beasts we are not. Do not seek hostility, for it shall bring us to our knees in these times. Do not prove to the furless that we are the cats they claim us to be
3. Metztli is our truest of rulers, to forget this is to forfeit being Kharajyr
4. The word of Aelkos is law, the word of elders is sacred, the word of youths is informant
5. Bring greatness to our people, etch yourselves into the history books. Make Eittitica known
6. Honourary Kha are encouraged, expand our ranks and allies; if there is a furless who you believe has what it takes, bring them forth
7. If issue can not be resolved, seek the guidance of Elder and Aelkos, their wisdom is paramount

8. Hubris is forsaken, knowing ones place within the community allows for support. Seek betterment, but not to be better than everyone else, for it will isolate you.

 

These are the instructions of the Aelkos of MIND, and shall be my final words until my return. Be well, my kin, for when I return we shall continue our rise to glory.

Metztli wills it.
 

 

Yhl’Kabletli Eittitica, Chief of the Eittitica Pride, Aelkos of MIND,

So'Flaaowni squinted at the missive as she read over it, and then grumbles as tosses it aside. 

"This one is so not treating Sa'Bartixci like hims am her boss." She scoffs. "She hopes Yhl'Kabletli get hims fur wet on travels." 

There's a pause, and then a sigh.

"...And that hims is safe, yes. She supposes."
