To the Blessed Citizens of Haelun’or.

 

It is indeed a tragedy, the loss of our city Tahn’miar. Orsathiel’s claws proved too fatal for the continent of Aevos, and once again our people were resettled, ferried off far away to another landmass to call home. Arcadia has already proved a lush and fantastic point to begin. Seated near Petra for the time being, we begin laying our new foundations within the lands of Numendil.

 

The Motherland has suffered worse, to be resettled is in our blood after all. We were the ones who once fled the stagnation of Malin’s kingdom and with Larihei’s wisdom as the wind in our sails we had found brighter and better futures; and it is those brighter futures we find time and time again. Nobody had ever said maehr’sae was an easy feat, and with each resettlement our people kindle larger fires, build taller spires and build more magnificent cities.

 

With the power given to me as elSohaer of the Silver State, I name our new home Siraminde. It is here we shall facilitate new agreements, produce fantastical works of art, and prove mastery over the arcane and artificery.

 

Our Eternal Library shall have busy laboratories for the inventors, the College shall once more host lectures and lessons on the botanical, mystical and mysterious. Adjacent to this our Ilumiran shall once more flourish, with a mana obelisk of grandiose size, and a tower fit for the Arcane Masters. Those of elEhieral, the Found, shall host spectacular lessons for their pupils, craft works of Arcane art, and importantly investigate our new mysterious continent for whatever secrets it may hold. Those of elUhieran, the Seekers, shall learn the mysteries of the Void, and become potent spellcasters who will guard and protect the Silver State and nearby regions from Voidal havoc.

To speak of the positions within our Eternal Library and Ilumiran, we have seen ample confidence in Isadora, a valah who serves as Tilruir’indor, she now shall operate under the Okarir’indor, Laerean. Additionally, our space for Okarir’maehr is left unfilled, though there is a rumour passing around of a potential individual wishing to take up the role.

 

With the position of Okarir’sil now filled by Antelian Acaln’sae we shall see our Sillumirian flourish, with the respective member of the council seeking to produce reforms and edicts that will make all of our residents safe once again after such turbulent times. My thanks go to Valazaer Calith, the predecessor to Antelian, who had vetted and prepared the new Okarir’sil in their future role.

 

Our Okarir’akaln, Lenniel Sythaerin, still produces more trade agreements, protects more enterprises and steadily creates a larger and steadier economy for our people. Siraminde  has ample space for shops and stalls and she has done well so far to fill almost every single one of them. In addition to this, we have upheld many agreements and seek to fill our stalls with various products near and afar to bolster the coming economical shifts to come. 

 

In addition to this, our Okarir’mali, Kirkigar, who had done brilliant work in our previous cihi of Tahn’imar having been the voice to open and welcome many, who aided in the facilitation and bringing home of those distant Mali’aheral who longed for a bustling Haelun’or, and who cooperated with the people to produce spectacles and exciting activities. Our dear Kirkigar has worked with other Mali’aheral to aid with balls, aided in bringing many elves to the Motherland and helping to facilitate them, and has always been an interesting figure for those present.

To our settling Mali’aheral and those in accompany of us who desire to find themselves a place within Siraminde, it is here I highlight some of our facilities available to you all.

 

Spoiler

Tavern 

The White Owl Tavern sits just beside our main entrance to Siraminde, with a much more enticing and appealing space than the previous tavern; it is in dire need of staff. Featuring two floors, a kitchen and multiple seating arrangements it is the perfect spot for those who enjoy hosting parties, serving and tending to their community, or simply to be one who hears the stories of the world whenever they can.

 

Clinic

No longer a neglected sector within elcihi, within Siraminde the clinic is easily accessible from the square, featuring autopsy rooms and many beds for those who may get injured during their beginning adventures into this new realm. With some already putting themselves forward to staff it, we look for those medically trained or aspiring for such to come to the Clinic and make themselves known.

 

Eternal Library

Facilitating an expansive space with tall towering shelves and several laboratory spaces, the Eternal Library is the core of Siraminde, connecting both the Eternal College and Ilumiran too to its heart. It is now the perfect opportunity to put oneself forward as a scholarly keeper of the grounds, one who wishes to author their own work, aid in sorting and donating to the library, and in addition guiding those interested in the library to the knowledge they seek.

 

Eternal College

In adjacency to the Eternal Library is its college, a fine tower of lecture halls and studious theatres. The space the Eternal College provides is more than adequate for any lecture or small forum, gatherings and teachings and even areas to practice alchemy and the like in small or larger groups. This space is of public use, but those of the Eternal Library may also be desired to take up the role of hosting lectures and discussions.

 

Ilumiran

Our finest magi. The Ilumiran is the pinnacle tower to the opposite flank of the Eternal College, at its peak an observatory, and each floor hosting rooms for magical practice and lectures on the Arcane. Keeping close to the Eternal Library, the Ilumiran hosts the collective works of Arcane Magic and many teachers are found within it. For any pure Mali’aheral who wish to take up the Arcane Art, this is your calling.

Sillumiran

Our Weeping Blades, the Sillumiran shall see many reforms in the coming years, for with a new Okarir’sil at its helm, many policies and edicts are already in its works. It is not in the nature of a pure Mali’aheral to desire to shed their own blood, but those of the honourable Sillumiran take such a sacrifice as to protect our people.

 

Shops & Stalls

Our Okarir’akaln has worked incredibly hard to ensure the city has adequate stores- many of which have already been filled and pacts and agreements made. There are still spaces left untouched however, and stalls to be filled with various wares, from within or from afar. Any are welcome to give samples of their culture to the Mali’aheral of Siraminde to help satiate their curiosities.

Maehr’sae Hiylun’eyha

 

Signed,

Sohaer Acalmaehr Calith

F SIR

[Kenzo74 756]

Arasdir Miravaris peered on from the proud heights of the Silver City onto the human hamlets below, baptizing this new hallowed refuge with a chant which would no doubt ring many times thereafter:

"Maehr'sae hiylun'ehya!"

[Morigung-oog 5697]

“My debt is paid.”

 

So spoke Valindra as the dawn crept over Haelun’or’s marbled skyline, the light breaking upon the silver spires she had once helped fill with life anew. The Empress Vengeance was nowhere to be seen, stowed out of sight and mind from any and all but the scarce few the elfess trusted enough to inform. Despite all she'd endured, she'd kept her word.  The mali'thill had found their refuge and secured their in Siraminde- at least for now. She had guided them home, and yet, when the tales of triumph rose, her name was not among those sung. Hardly unexpected. Valindra watched on in silence, from far above the mali'thill, carried by a pair of feathered wings. Her satisfaction was not measured by the gratitude of the 'thill, merely that she ha fulfilled her end of the bargain. 

 

And finally, with her task complete, she lingered no longer.

 

Those wings carried her off, away from the bastion of purity which served as a hub of painful memories. She'd fulfilled her purpose... And now the broken scion vowed to find another worthy of her time.
