[!] This letter is sent to Perseus, copies of this letter have been sent/shown to others irply by the Patriarch. “May the Stars be ever in our favour” An Address to Perseus Adiler, my grandson. You first wrote to me, wishing to learn of our House and its ways. I was glad to hear it. I have been absent from much of your life, and I felt a flicker of pride, a hope that you would walk the path of your kin. But that hope quickly withered. You wrote again, this time to say you did not wish to "cause issues" for our name. You claimed that our views do not align, that our ways are submissive and ludicrous. Let me remind you of our way. We uphold honour and righteousness. We protect those who cannot protect themselves. We are the shield that guards the wounded, the sword that defends the innocent. We are selfless, courageous, and loyal. And you have turned your back on all of it. You claimed you would not fight darkspawn, declaring they are 'not all bad.' For such words, I, Chapter Master of the Radiant Flamekeepers, hereby remove you from the Order of Templars that has sworn to protect the descendants against the very evil you now dare to defend. As Patriarch of House Adiler, I hereby revoke the Adiler name from your identity. You are stricken from our records, erased from our history, and forgotten. Never again shall your name be spoken among us. You brought shame upon our house when you still bore its name. You turned against our friends, betrayed our allies, and defied all we stand for. May the Stars never be in your favour. Lord Xavier Mayer Adiler, Patriarch Of House Adiler, Prince Of The Stars, Lord Protector Of Aen'Aeloria, Lord Of Favillarium, Chief Librarian and Chapter Master Of The Radiant Flamekeepers.

[!] This Notice is pinned up in Fort Favillarium “We are the unyielding radiant flame” In regard to the proper conduct expected of members of the Order when dealing with those infected with the Vampiric disease. If it is confirmed that a descendant has indeed been afflicted with such a fate, they are to be brought in for immediate questioning. Should the individual confess that the affliction was forced upon them, and express a genuine desire to be freed from it, the ElixirWardens of the Order are authorized and equipped to administer the necessary remedy. However, if it is discovered that the individual willingly sought out this condition and harbors no intention of removing its stain, they are to be executed without delay, and their body committed to flame. This protocol is both an act of mercy and a final opportunity for the afflicted to be rid of such a fate. It is to be followed by all members of the Order. Any failure to uphold this practice will result in appropriate disciplinary action. Xavier Mayer Adiler Lord Of Favillarium, Chief Librarian and Chapter Master Of The Radiant Flamekeepers.

Why would Taheriae see magic from fellow Aenguls (Templarism and Druidism) as impure? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black if Taheriar also gives mortals a deific magic.

What RP encounter have you experienced that still makes you laugh when you think about it?

Mockingbirds, I don't know how many would be needed to take over the world. - Favourite Character will have to be one of my high elves, Azra. His RP has always been sweet and wholesome, a real breath of fresh air from the intense RP of my other characters. - Honestly all the work I did when I was on CT, especially building the pride flag for cloud temple. - my favourite way of listening to music is matching songs to what I am writing or drawing. - crust first. Balianite son

Time for my lovely friends and communities to ask me questions. <3

“We are the unyielding radiant flame” To the one who dared proclaim “war”. You sought to snuff out the Radiant Flame with shadow and spite, yet all you succeeded in doing was fanning it brighter. We answered your challenge not because you barked, but because we have a sacred duty to uphold. And what happened? Your warriors broke like brittle kindling before the ever burning Flame. Half fell by our hands, and the rest scattered, fleeing not just our blades but the truth. You are not the reckoning you claim to be. You are smoke without fire, shadow without form. Should you return, we will greet you the same. With fire, fury, and the unyielding flame that will never bow to your threats.

The Chapter Master of the Radian Flamekeepers, Xavier Adiler, lets out a chuckle of amusement - This missive only sparking the fire this dark force wishes to snuffle out. So as he enters the courtyard of the Flamekeepers' Fort he shouts across it to get the attention of his members "War is up you Bastards! Time to prove yourselves"

[!] This letter was delivered to The Saneyir by a Starry Owl "Greetings once more, old llir, it has been quite some time since our discussion in Petra all those years ago. Unfortunately, the advice and wisdom you bestowed upon me then have not borne fruit for many reasons; these reasons have caused a rift between me and our kin. Decades of wrongdoings have made the love towards elven kind hard to swallow. However, with that being said, I will always hear what you have to say. Do I seek the path of discipleship? That answer is buried underneath too much uncertainty. I want to believe in your writing llir but perhaps I have grown too bitter to accept.” Xavier Adiler

[!] This missive is spread across lands to catch the attention of those who have been seeking a home such as this A new starlight shines brightly across the night sky, a beacon of hope and the promise of lasting peace. After a long journey of self-discovery, I have once more taken up my crown. I set forth to rebuild the tranquil land of Aen’Aeloria once more, not as a ruler driven by pride, nor as a man swayed by the winds of war and threats from those who seek only bloodshed, but as a man transformed. The Holy Flame of Malchediael now courses through my veins, and my soul stands humbled before GOD. My sword shall be raised only in the glory and righteousness of Malchediael, never for conquest, never for vanity. And my knee shall only bow before GOD. I do not align myself with the vain ambitions and hollow traditions that were Celia’nors downfall, the kindred I once called my own have shown themselves driven by irrational pride, blinded by their own illusions. I claim such a statement because I have seen the strength and unity of humanity. I have stood within their courts, walked among their councils, and fought beside them in their armies. Through them, I have learned invaluable truths: the power of compassion, the wisdom found in humility, and the grace of true faith, which I have found within the Holy Mother Church. Peace is my mission. I seek not only to rebuild but to create a sanctuary, Aen’Aeloria reborn as a haven for all who seek the light. It shall be a refuge for the weary, a place for the broken, and a stronghold for those who strive to walk a righteous path. Soon, Aen’Aeloria will be the Haven of a New Starlight. Lord Xavier Mayer Adiler, Patriarch Of House Adiler, Prince Of The Stars, Lord Protector Of Aen'Aeloria, Lord Of Favillarium, Chief Librarian and Chapter Master Of The Radiant Flamekeepers.

“We are the unyielding radiant flame” The Radiant Flamekeepers welcome all who aspire to follow the noble path of Malchediael. However, to truly earn their place within the order, each individual must prove their worth. Every rank is accompanied by a series of trials designed to challenge members physically, mentally, and morally, ensuring that they embody the core principles of being a true Templar. The Trials: Trial of Oath The initiation process begins with the "Trial of the Oath." In this foundational stage, prospective Initiates are evaluated on their comprehension of the order's tenets, which encompass ideals such as loyalty, bravery, and compassion. Members must demonstrate basic combat skills through a chosen training exercise and engage in meaningful acts of service within communities, such as aiding the less fortunate or participating in local peacekeeping efforts. This trial underscores the importance of humility, discipline, and the core virtues that define the Flamekeepers. Trial of the Flame To ascend to the rank of Neophyte, Initiates must conquer the "Trial of the Flame." This demanding challenge tests physical endurance, advanced combat capabilities, and unwavering moral integrity. Members will need to survive in the wilderness for several days with minimal provisions, relying on their survival skills and ingenuity. Additionally, they must engage in defensive operations to protect realms from marauding forces, all while exhibiting steadfast adherence to the Flamekeepers' code, even in the most trying circumstances. The trial is designed to forge resilience and fortitude within the candidates. Trial of Radiant Valour Neophytes seeking to elevate their status to Knights must complete an extensive series of valorous tasks, culminating in the formidable "Trial of Radiant Valour." In this trial, members must go out and hunt dark entities alone, manifestations of the fears and evils that threaten the lives of innocence, requiring not only strength but also profound strategic thinking. Furthermore, they must lead a mission that demands quick decision-making, effective collaboration, and exemplary leadership skills. The end of this trial requires members to face their most profound fears during a sacred rite, emerging not just as warriors but as symbols of courage and unwavering faith. Trial of Self The "Trial of Self" serves as a support trial that can be given at any point to members who are grappling with internal challenges or ethical dilemmas. Should a member exhibit signs of personal struggle, this trial is crafted to guide them through their difficulties, helping them rediscover clarity and purpose. It emphasises introspection, resilience, and the reaffirmation of one’s commitment to the values that underpin their role within the Flamekeepers, ultimately guiding them back onto their chosen path.

[!] This missive is spread across the lands “We are the unyielding radiant flame” To Whom It May Concern, Even though our mission calls us across the land and we go where we are most needed, we, like many, still long for a place to call home. A place where we may return, gather in fellowship, and strengthen the bonds that hold our order together. Therefore, as Chapter Master of the Radiant Flamekeepers, I humbly submit this request for a grant of land upon which we might establish such a sanctuary. We hope to build a hearth for rest, reflection, and renewal between our journeys. Our plans have already been drawn up. If you wish to review them and discuss further details, such as land allocation and taxation, send me a letter and we can arrange a time for a meeting. Lord Xavier Mayer Adiler, Patriarch Of House Adiler, Prince Of The Stars, Lord Protector Of Aen'Aeloria, Lord Of Favillarium, Chief Librarian and Chapter Master Of The Radiant Flamekeepers.

And so it has come to pass an old promise remembered, an old duty fulfilled, an old crown reforged in the fires of time and honor. The light of the Stars of Andria, ancient and unwavering, has never flickered nor faded. Through ages of silence and exile, it endured. While kingdoms fell to dust and kings to memory, the starlight remained. Within its glow, one elf, chosen not by conquest nor chance but by the will of the stars themselves, stood steadfast. He did not claim power when it would have been easy. He did not break when others fell. He laid down his crown not in surrender but in sacrifice, that his people might endure while he bore the weight of their future alone. Betrayal sought him. Shadows pursued him. Yet he endured. For them. For us. To many, he was a Prince in name only, a memory of a people thought long lost. But those who knew, who listened to the songs whispered on starlit winds, knew the truth. The Stars do not forget their chosen. Now, in the turning of the age, the promise has come full circle. Beneath the same skies that once bore witness to his oath, the crown has found its rightful bearer once more. He rises, no longer just a Prince of the past, but as the Prince of the Stars. A title not forged of gold nor decree, but of legacy and light. With it, the Stars of Andria breathe anew. Not merely in stone and soil, but in soul. It's people, the Star-Touched, stand once again not as remnants but as a nation reborn. Let it be known throughout all lands and realms: The Star-Touched are no longer scattered. The line of Aen’aeloria stands unbroken.

Xavier Adiler reads the missive with no amusement or shock, he knew this day was coming, and now that the Celia'nor stars have burnt out... It was time for others to shine once more. "The time has come"

[!] This missive is placed across the land of Celia’nor and wherever else it may go. “We are the unyielding radiant flame” A common cause, bound by one heart, driven by shared emotions, and guided by a singular mind devoted to sacred ideals. This was the dream. This was the vision upon which The Radiant Flamekeepers were founded within your walls. From the moment our Order was formed, I believed, perhaps naively, that Celia’nor could become a beacon. That the Nation of Stars, through faith and guidance, might shift its course away from the cold machinations of power and politics, and toward something greater. Toward something divine. I believed in that future. I believed in you. In those early days, I offered you not only my faith but my hand. I stepped into the realm of your politics with the hope that my influence might steer your nation away from pride, from division, from the darkness that festers in silence. I stood before your people as a devout follower of Malchediael, the Patron of Holy Flame and Sacred Purpose, and I sought to extend His will into every chamber, every law, and every promise made beneath your stars. But now, I see clearly. The light I believed could be kindled in your halls has flickered and died. And in its place, only shadow remains. I have waited. I have hoped. I have prayed. But no change has come. And as a servant of Malchediael, I cannot and will not stand beside a nation whose actions stray so far from His sacred tenets. My loyalty, first and foremost, has always been to Him, to the values He embodies, to the purpose He breathes into each of us who have been Chosen. His will is not vague. His commands are not hollow. They are clear, unwavering, and eternal. To uphold virtuous oaths and bonds. To resolve disputes before they fester into deeper wounds. To vanquish those who bring harm and transgression upon others. In these sacred tenets, I find clarity. I find strength. And I find no place for a Crown or council that disregards them so freely. You have broken your oaths. You have ignored festering wounds. You have allowed harm to spread, sometimes even enabling it through silence or scheming. You were given the opportunity to prove otherwise, to rise above the legacy of your past. Instead, you have only deepened the rot that threatens to consume you from within. And so, I have made my choice. I choose Malchediael. I choose the Flame. As Chapter Master of The Radiant Flamekeepers, I hereby withdraw our Order from the knightly branches of Celia’nor. I relinquish all political and martial duties once tied to your name. I cast aside any rank or station bestowed upon me by your throne. The oaths I once swore to your nation are now void, not in anger, but in sorrow. I sever them, not with violence, but with the unshakable conviction that no bond should persist when it is built on betrayal. From this day forward, the Radiant Flamekeepers owe no allegiance to any sovereign, council, or crown. We answer only to Malchediael. Let none claim this as an act of rebellion, for we rebel against no law of man, but we do stand in defiance of injustice. Let none call this treason, for our loyalty was never truly yours, but His. Let none attempt to twist our mission into ambition, for we do not seek dominion. We seek purpose. We seek to uphold the light. To my fellow Templars, within and beyond Celia’nor, know this. I do not write these words to divide us. I do not claim your devotion is less pure than mine. We are bound by the same Flame, and we carry the same Blessing. If your path remains within Celia’nor, I will not curse it. But if your heart grows heavy and you seek strength beyond the politics of court and nation, the Flamekeepers will welcome you with open arms. You will find sanctuary, solidarity, and sacred purpose in our ranks. The Radiant Flamekeepers will continue our mission, unbound by borders, unshackled from thrones. We will stand where others fall. We will shield the innocent where others hesitate. And when the darkness rises, as it always does, we will meet it with the holy fury of the White Flame. That is our oath. That is our path. Celia’nor has made its choices. Now, we walk our own. May Malchediael’s will shine upon those who remain steadfast, and may His Flame burn away all falsehood and fear. Xavier Mayer Adiler, Patriarch Of House Adiler, Lord Of Favillarium, Chief Librarian and Chapter Master Of The Radiant Flamekeepers.

[!] This missive is placed across the Principality of Celia’nor “We are the unyielding radiant flame” The world is plagued by many evil forces that corrupt and take root with ease. It falls upon the devoted to ensure that such darkness never prevails. So to safeguard Celia’nor from such a fate, the Radiant Flamekeepers stand as the unyielding fire against the encroaching darkness. They shall be the Flame That Protects the Star, ensuring that no darkspawn or darkmage taints the Principality. By the Grace of Malchedieal’s White Flame, no shadow shall snuff out our starlight. Let it be known that any who lurk within the borders of Celia’nor and bear such corruption shall be struck down by the Star’s protecting Flame. Those who flee will find no sanctuary, for the noble warriors of Malchedieal will hunt them relentlessly. All encounters will be documented and shared with the Celia’diraar, the Royal Phoenix Order, and the Knights of Helia. Furthermore, any citizen with knowledge of darkspawn or darkmages within our lands must report it immediately. Let it also be declared that those who aid such filth will face punishment. The Radiant Flamekeepers shall raise their blades, wreathed in Malchedieal’s White Flame, without mercy. Those afflicted by the vampyric curse will be granted a chance at being cured and freed of their affliction. But to those who have willingly embraced darkness, who have invited evil into their hearts and souls, you should have thought well about the consequences of your choice. And to those who may dwell within our lands, believing you are hidden, your time has run out. No one escapes the gaze of the righteous. Xavier Mayer Adiler, Patriarch Of House Adiler, Chief Librarian and Chapter Master Of The Radiant Flamekeepers. Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royarch, Iryne Ibarellan, Patroness of the Arts, Guardian of the Celestial Realm, and lineal descendant of the Silver Phoenix, of the Principality of Celia'nor
