TwilightWolf

While using our elven we have here would add a nice touch to the name and give it meaning, none of the past major settlements have had something that translates into something with meaning. One thing that I have really loved about the names we have used in the past, is that they were not too 'flowery', so to speak. I do like the suggestion Cihil'ilum, I feel that it is one of those things that is, again, too 'flowery'. The names we have used have had something about it that I feel could have only been achieved with beautiful simplicity. 'Laurelin' is a great example of this. While putting the language to 'use' in the naming of this city, out of personal preference, I think we should keep it simple, easy to pronounce, and something that 'rolls off the tongue'. I do have one name that has stuck with me while building for those long hours, and that would be Lothlaeril. (Or Lothlauril)

Titania listens to Kolyat amongst the crowd, slowly a soft smile creeps to her lips, nodding to herself occasionally. Soon, this smile disappears upon hearing the counter arguments. She mutters to herself softly, "Is unity that undesirable of a concept...? Has everyone lost their sense of tolerance for one another..?" She turns to Emberhard, who she stands next to. She remains silent for a few moments after he has finished his speech, leaning in to mutter something to him quietly.

((Please state why we can trust you with this job)): I have a clean slate as far as ban/strike reports go, I don't conflict with any players (As far as I know), and I can devote quite a bit of IC and OOC time into making sure this job is done correctly, thoroughly, and effectively. ((Do you use skype?)): Yes. ((How long have you been on the server?)): I believe 5 months, I'm not entirely sure. ((Why, as a player, do you wish to join the lower council?)): I would like to become more involved in Malinor politics, and help Malinor in any way I can.

If so state them, and their nature: No. Do you have any work experience, if so where and what: I worked alongside Emberhard in Holm as a head farmer, particularly specializing in livestock.

While this theory is very interesting, and mostly correct if I remember my biology class right... I would like to point out that curses aren't exactly... ehm... 'sciencey' :P Perhaps this curse is magical, and affects those even with the smallest amounts of cursed blood? Just throwing that out there. I also understand your concern for other players, and how their roleplay might be affected by this clarification, but it has been stated multiple times that it will be worked out for those players.

I feel this was very needed, I had always found it somewhat fishy that alot of half elves/humans with elven blood assume both blessings rather than curses :huh:. Unfortunately, this means that my own personal work on this topic is now useless, as this entire post literally encompasses everything that I was writing about! :P Thanks for the clarification, hopefully this will do nothing but benefit the server

Titania pushes up on the lift from Underholm, the lift ascending with a bit more strain than usual. She rubs her hands against her arms, warm puffs of her breath clearly visible in the crisp air. Thinking to herself as the lift nears its stop, she begins to shiver. "Hm.. Colder than normal..." Hopping off the lift, she takes slow, choppy steps towards the exit of her house, now beginning to worry about the cold. Taking her first step outside, she is blinded by the amount of snow and ice that has blanketed Holm. The ground is no longer visible, the leaves of the trees coated in frost or dozen completely. Jaw to the floor, she takes in her new, icy surrounding. She leaves very deep footprints in the snow, making her way to the farms. A worried, amazed frown slowly creeps on her face as she examine the crops. All of the waving wheat, the proud hedge, frozen into blocks of ice. Twirling around anxiously, she finds herself standing on the frozen pond. She shakily puts her hand to her lips, whistling for a bird. Slowly writing a note, despite her frozen bones protesting, she real eases the bird, making her way back to her house.

Titania stares at the paper, before speaking in a low, almost sorrowful tone. "It seems like every time I visit Malinor these days, it's so empty... Seems like yesterday when I was one of the Sentinel Initiates, when Normandor was filled... Wonder where that has all gone..."

*sends a bird to Kar with her reply* Accepted, I would like to speak to you in person, so that I may explain a few things and issue you your keys

Shouldn't the five day wait still apply here? I feel like that is an extremely short amount of time before an all out attack.

Titania nods slowly, agreeing with Cethis. She hesitates before speaking in a quieter tone. "I have to also bring up that a similar council system was used in Holm before Izier completely removed the council as a whole. With the council, the only upside was that communication between the districts increased, but a much more problematic situation arose. Nothing was accomplished between the constant bickering and useless arguing." She glances to Cethis, smiling slightly. "I agree with Cethis fully. I don't see a problem with the elves handling this situation. If they fail,I suppose the council could be given a try...But then I ask, is a council necessarily needed? Why can't ArmaLuna govern itself after it is helped back onto its feet?"

*writes a reply, sending it to him with a bird* Looks good, Shmoopy. We could always use another archer for the walls. Come see me when you have the chance so we can discuss things.

*notices the list for the auction, and places her bid* Titania Hawksong, 4000 minas

*Looks onto the newest application, writing a reply...* Von, good to have you on the guard.As I mentioned before, your key to the gatehouse will be delivered shortly. You might want to come see me again, so I can explain our rules and restrictions further.

*Reads the note, breaking into a smile. She reaches into her pack, pulling out a pen and quill, writing...* Queen Kyral Hightower. Whether we have met or not, I would be glad to invite you to Hawksong Stables, and view our fine steeds we have for sale. I have a pony what would be perfect for your niece. Not green, no vices, and a great ride over any terrain. I would like you to contact me for a meeting time. ~Titania Hawksong *She hands the letter to the courier, who quickly delivers it to the Queen.*

Titania reviews both applications laid before her, smiling as she recognizes both names. Eagerly, she takes up her quill, writing... Tyrian, I am glad you have planned to stay with the forces of Holm. I will be sending your key to the gatehouse after you return to me to see about the current rules and restrictions of Holm. ~Titania Hawksong William, I am happy to see you in the applications. Upon review, I think a medic would be a big help. Further training in swordsmanship is recommended. Come see me about your key to the gatehouse, and about the rules and restrictions of Holm. ~Titania Hawksong She hands the letters to the courier, whisking him away to deliver them swiftly.

As Titania thanks the captain and hops onto the docks, she comes to a halt at the sight of the blood. Kneeling down, she dabs a finger into the blood, finding it relativley dry. Noticing the trail either stopping or starting at the end of the dock, she makes a mental note of the possibility of a body being dumped into the ocean. Taking a deep breath, she follows the trail carefully. Upon arriving to the throne room, her heart sinks. She gags slightly seeing the heart, and thinks of how excruciating this must have been. Her attention is drawn to the insignia, mumbling to herself. "Why would the Flay come here..." As she absorbs the wholeness of the scene, she can't help but think back to the similar scenario back when she worked at the farms. "...Lengthy blood trail, putting something up for display..." , she mumbles, as the horrifying image of the body pinned to the center point of the blades of the windmill, the corpse spinning with the ever turning blades. "Only this time.... no body." Pondering the possibilities, she leaves the palace, looking for someone official to notify.

Titania leans on the wall next to the entrance to the building, twiddling her thumbs. She mumbles to herself, glancing to the door. "What could be taking him so long...?" Curiosity gets the better of her, so she pushes her way through the iron doors, calling for Emberhard. Rounding the corner, she stops in her tracks before the body, knowing exactly what is going on by the scene laid before her. She exchanges glances between the body and Ember, still in disbelief. "We'd better take him to the windmill."
