The Unshocked Akaln'rivs

THE UNSHOCKED AKALN’RIVS

Heralded On the Year  228. 

 

---

This should come as no surprise.

Even a donkey on the roadside could have seen this coming.

For years, House Akaln’riv has endured mistreatment under the Celia’nor system. Despite the constant harassment, rumors, and slander- often perpetuated by the Ibarelleans- we remained standing. We remained silent.

Time and time again, our efforts were buried, our voices dismissed. Branded as a Talonnii of “bumbling fools,” yet it has been these very “fools” who have stood by your side, and by the side of your people, longer than many care to admit. Even the youngest Oem’ii recall the days when Lady Akaln’riv was harassed in the streets. Even Lady Soltée herself voiced concern over the blatant mistreatment by those in power.

You have turned me into a fool. 

To say that this dissolution does not bring relief would be a lie.

And if this nation dares to rise again- I, Lady Akaln’riv, will be the first to stand against it. I swear it. Para’dine shall never again bow beneath the rule of the Ibarelleans.

You spit on our name and expect us to bless your boots for it.

You call us fools, yet feast off the labor of our hands, the loyalty we gave freely.

A YIELDING TO A LLIR.
 

Following the Dissolution of Celia’nor, the Akaln’riv Talonnii yields to the occupation of Caurost and the authority of Lord Governor Galar. Para’dine shall find relief through other means. through those of my bloodline.

The scars I carry from Celia’nor are many. I was their youngest Diraar at the age of five, and I have borne the weight of that title ever since. Let those memories fade. Let the mark of the Diraar be burned away. All members of House Akaln’riv who still bear that mark are to destroy it. Should they refuse, they shall face punishment. Let it be burned. Let it be overwritten. Let it be destroyed. This chapter in our history is one of disappointment.

Para’dine shall not be the banner-men, of those who are fools themselves. I refuse for my land to be under you.

Her Ladyship, lari'vilut ito Paradine,  Val’Laurir of Para’dine, Ciradyl Akaln’riv.

Matriarch of the Akaln’riv Talonnii.

 

[Nectorist 12869]

Galar orders that a gift be sent to the Akaln'riv Matriarch to commend her for her commitment towards friendship and a future of security and stability in the Starlands, as well as the faith she puts in him personally. Furthermore, he confirms that the Akaln'riv estate will be protected by Caurost and that all members of the Talonii who cooperate with the governing authority will be accepted with open arms, while those who resist will meet the force of order and stability.
