CHE DIO MOSTRA MISERICORDIA SUI NOSTRI NEMICI,
 

To the Illatians of Almaris,

            After the long years our ancestors have spent on the beautiful Isles of Illatia, flourishing even during times of conflict on the mainland, the corruption has finally reached our birth home. We, the Florentino family, have lived quietly upon the island, following our faith and pursuing the well-being of our people. Even so, there are people who are jealous of our name and seek to stain it with the blood of innocents. We are the true descendants of the Baron of Illatia, Marco d’Montelliano- the blood of the great pheasant runs through our veins, and we will not stand for this. The House of Cantacuzino has deceived our family and amassed an army to take the historical Castello di Santa Maria, our ancestral home on the island of Illatia. It was constructed decades ago for our great-grandmother. Duchess of Bravuna, Mariya de’ Drăghicescu, after she fled the nation of Haense. The Cantacuzino family has taken our mother as a hostage after they murdered our father in cold blood. Our mother’s sacrifice and exchange of her freedom has granted us, her dear children, ours. As we now enter the ports of Almaris we receive news that an offspring of the Cantacuzino family had left prior to the battle, now residing in the Kingdom of Oren, and hoping to gain supporters in what we know as their evil conquest against us and all Illatian people. So, we ask that all Illatians of Almaris would bring us the boy whose family would have us slaughtered if things happened differently. For the well being of our culture and people, we urge you to do so.

Ave Illatia!

 

To the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska and her people,

            The House of Florentino would like to make itself known to the great nation of the north. We are foreign nobility from the Isles of Illatia, and be that as it may, we do not come demanding power nor respect. We wish to earn such through hard work and continuous acts of loyalty. Personally, I am well adept in the cultural arts as well as politics, so I believe I may find my place among the courts. I may even find myself useful in the company of the military. As for my siblings, my sisters have worked with many charities in the past upon the Isles, to help the less fortunate, and so they hope to involve themselves with something similar within the city. As for my brother, he has found himself highly devoted to our faith and to GOD, so the church may be for him. Simply, we all hope to contribute to the growth of this great nation and people.

“I hope my last breath is a sigh of relief”
 

In the new city of Celia'nor, upon a couch that had sat the very founders of the city, laid a man of many past wonders. Becclain Vuln’miruel, Brother Kestrel, laid upon it, his sweat soaking the mattress as quick repeated breaths left him. The half-elf's arms laid helplessly by his side as those who attended him wiped the dried blood from under his nose. A painful grunt escaped him as he attempted to turn to look towards those gathered around him, his mind a blur as the faces he once cherished deeply lost meaning to him. Everything slipped away. Everything but the pain, his bones ached, his muscles cramped, his joints swelled and locked into place as he failed again to adjust in the couch. 

The Kestrel had watched for his entire life those who grew up around him only gain vigor and strength, while he had felt his own slipping away. The half-elf could constantly feel his human half pulling on him and only a few years ago the signs started to show, it began to hurt when he walked, his breath would escape him more rapidly, and his own eyes had begun to fail. His mind was made up. He had lived by his own choices and decisions, and his end would be no different.

Small guttural pains emitted from the half-elf as he reached for his knife. He pulled it from its sheath as tears filled his eyes, his teeth grinding in his mouth before his body collapsed on the bed, his strength leaving him moments after. His eyes then fixed on the dagger as he thought to himself, contemplating whether or not he should do it.

Renae Athri’onn, his lari’onn, soon approached his side with her accustomed pity. Becclain’s gaze forced her eyes to look away before his voice broke in his throat. “Help me,” he said, tears streaming down his face. Becclain then pushed the knife vertically over his heart. “H-Help m-me see our l-lari’onn.” At that, Renae’s head shook violently as she reached out to slap the knife away though she unexpectedly found her hand resting on the pommel. Her eyes met the gaze of her mal’onn, his eyes, so full of a life that had been absent for years, “A-Always and forever…” as the words left her lips, she felt herself push down.
 

A sharp breath filled the room, though one of relief.

“Always and forever.”

[!] On the table beside the couch, there would be an assortment of letters that Becclain had written when he still had the strength to write. Each letter would only be delivered to the person it was written to.

Renae

Seraphina

Elara

Zaelyn

Mik & Layla

Sonna
 

~Some Words~

“What an interesting time to be alive. I do wonder what will come out of this unity, and what enemies we may have made thus far… I knew I should have stayed longer at that meeting…” A particular Druid said to himself as he read the missive.

I always wanted a hamster 

Yes!! We love to see more lore for the Sanguine Fire~ <3
 

"They thought to silence him by sending assassins? From the Elvendom? My Aspects, things just keep getting more and more chaotic. I think I should pay a visit to some old friends and family soon enough." The man turned his head to look out of the window of the horse-drawn carriage. It appeared he would have been accompanied by his sister as they traveled along the eastern path, making their way to the Kingdom of Oren.

A particular druid would receive one of the missives as he read it over, eyes widening as he spoke to himself. "My my, the realm has been thrown into quite some chaos as of recent. Though, now that I think about it, that's how it's been for sometime now. Regardless of that, I'm not sure what to think of this news. All I wonder is what will happen to Minuvas- if he hasn't died yet that is."

The man read over the missive as he nodded his head slowly. He appeared to be in complete agreement with the new law, a smile forming upon his face as he said something to himself "I'm glad they were able to come to a compromise so early on in the debate. It's good to see that the balance is being upheld in other lands, especially the Ebonwood." 

A particular traveling Druid would have came across the missive, his eyes examining the words written upon the paper. After a moment, the Druid would say something to himself, "Time and time again I have seen the Silver State rise and fall because of problems created by themselves… I just wonder, will Minuvas be able to help the Mali of Haelun’or and bring this conflict to an end? I don’t even care who reigns, I just want there to be some peace in the realm" At that, the Druid fell quiet once more as he crumbled up the missive. He’d then continue on his way.

The Kestrel Druid would have stayed at Elara's side for days. He awaited patiently for her to wake from her deep slumber. A sense of worry and anxiety lingered over him as he was not sure what happened to her or what would happen to her, all he could do was wait... Then, once she awoke from her sleep and shouted out her new totem, a sense of relief washed over him and then he smiled "Blessed be, Sister Goliath... I'm so excited to see what becomes of you my malii'lari. I wish you luck and prosperity with what is to come and if you ever need anything, please come to see us." 

The druid would have come across this information as his brow perked up at the mention of, "Renae Athri'onn". He'd then say, "Everywhere this one goes, she gains a position of power. When will she just take long awaited time away from the politics of the realm. Nonetheless, I guess I should visit her- to discuss a few things of importance... See you soon, lari'onn." He'd then turn continue on his way, going to seek out the Mali'thill.

The Kestrel Druid felt the symphony and cheerful song of nature slowly come to a halt before changing into something more mournful as to represent the passing of a fellow druid. His left hand moved to touch his chest, resting over his heart as he stopped in his tracks, looking to the sky as he pondered as to who might have passed onto the Eternal Forest. "Hmm... Another druid has passed on... This time I have not the faintest clue as to who it might have been, but I worry it may be someone that I love dearly. Let me hope that I find out soon enough and that I won't be stricken by unbearable grief..." And at that, he continued on his way as he set out to investigate more about this death.

What magic(s) will you be teaching?

         Blight Healing

Describe this magic or a creature as a whole:

The Druidic Gift of Blight Healing is something that some Druids are able to learn once they are at a certain Tier, specifically Tier 3 or 4 in Communion. It’s the unique art of healing, cleansing, and revitalizing land or animals that may have been affected/tainted by corruption, etcetera. For example, It could be used to help heal and purify plant life that has been afflicted with unnatural taint, bringing life back to the dead and sickly land/nature or even animals that may have been affected by the corruption also. However, this ability is not limited to healing only unnaturally tainted land as it could even be used to bring life back to destroyed land due to natural events- aka wildfires, etcetera (though not a lot of Druids use it this way as It may disrupt the balance in their eyes). The Descendant races are not able to be healed using this druidic gift as it only works on plant life and animals, however, some fae creatures (ex. Sprites, Epiphytes, etc) and the husks of Tree Lords. Lastly, the use of this ability is very tiring on the Druid using it because of the amount of energy required to use it.

Are there different sections or subsections of magic? Can those be elaborated upon?

Nope

Can you give an example of a casting emote, of a spell of your choice?

**Becclain sighed as he wandered across the wilted and dried land, the sickly flowers no longer swaying and booming with energy as they were now at a loss of life. His eyes fixed upon one of the nearby red tulips as he frowned, memories flowing into his head as he went to kneel in front of it. He’d slowly extend his left hand to hover above the flower as his eyes began to glow brighter, the constant faint marigold colored hue erupting with more energy as he began communing.

**The Kestrel Druid allowed for his energy to flow out from his hand, accumulating/gathering in the palm of his hand as he prepared to use one of his gifts on the poor wilted flower. However, instead of simply falling down onto the flower, the energies began to take a small shape in his hand.

**As the Druid gathered all his energies into the palm of his hand, it would appear that a small hummingbird formed from that marigold colored energy. The little ethereal looking hummingbird fluttering its wings before going to land upon the wilted flower, poking It’s beak into the flower.

**All of the Druid’s energies would be flowing into the ethereal construct and then into the wild flower’s form, supplying the flower with his own energy as an attempt to revitalize it.

**After a few moments, you would begin to notice the sickly flower begin to take back It’s color and voice, It’s form perking up and lifting as the Druid’s energy assisted in the process of revitalizing it. And finally, the flower was now fully restored to living again, It’s voice becoming louder to the Druid as he smiled. He’d then go to push himself up to stand slowly, a heavy sigh escaping him as he began to walk off with that, the marigold colored hues in his eyes beginning to dim down. And the hummingbird formed through his energy dissipated and faded away, all of its energy supplying the flower in the end. 

Can you give an example of a teaching-emote (interacting with another) of a spell of your choice?

(Teacher): *Becclain would have guided the sapling Druid to the sickly land, motioning down to all of the wilted and destroyed nature and what appeared to be a body of water at some point, but now it was only but dirt and dried up soil. “Here we go, found some dried up land for this lesson… Now, I’ll be teaching you the basics, the druidic gift of blooming- It’s one of the first gifts you learn and you might notice that a lot of the other abilities work off of how this one works.” He’d let out a light huff as he went to kneel down before one of the dried up flowers. It would appear that most of Its petals fell off and dried up in the summer sun.*

(Teacher): **The Kestrel Druid proceeded to allow his eyes to glow brightly, the vermilion colored hues growing more and more as he faced the sickly flower. He’d then begin to commune with the flower, extending his hand out once he established his connection. His hand hovered over the flower as he allowed for his energy to gather in the palm of his hand (I’d do all the emotes for the Blooming Spell and I’d do it as if I’m Tier 1- To give a better idea of how to do the emotes with the Student.)

(Teacher): “Mhm- Right, as you can see I’m basically supplying the flower with my own energy to help bring life back to it. It’s quite tiring so don’t over do it or go fast, take your time and be confident in your own abilities.” He’d explain before going to stop, his colored hues dimming down as he looked to his student. He’d then motion for them to practice on one of the other flowers/plant life around the dried land.*

(Student): (The Student would do all the proper emotes for a Tier 1 Blight Healing Druid and I’d explain what happens to the flower as they use the ability/emote It regaining life and such. Then I would explain how It affects/feels on his character, the exhaustion, etc.)

(Teacher): “Spectacular! You did it, but I would advise you to take a seat and try to catch yourself real quick- It’s quite tiring on you, using Blight Healing and especially when you are a new student.” He’d nod his head, exchanging a smile with his student.*

Say your student powergames during or after teaching, how do you reprimand that?

If one of my students Power-game during a lesson or after, I will be very understanding and have a talk with them going over all of the basics and asking them what might have confused them. Basically, I would make sure they know not to do it again and how to properly do the spell so they won’t get in trouble by ST if I’m not there. Secondly, I would go over all of the consequences of making such a mistake, Power-gaming does not get taken lightly on this server and It could result in terrible things, etc. I mainly will just be going over it all, giving advice, explain, etc and if they ever do it again, then I’ll take bigger actions.

         Yuh
