• ○ Vailu Valmiran ○ • Upcoming changes and Internal Restructuring. [!] This missive starts with a neatly handwritten letter! It reads: “After running this College for over a century, I can comfortably call its success and outreach a lifetime achievement. Fruits of obsessive dedication and absolute single-mindedness. Now, the dream has outgrown its dreamer. I find that my silent, focused labour does not reach the true potential span of our artistic developments. Therefore, I am resigning as Headmistress of the Bard’s College and, as a final act of conviction, I have elected a Bardic Council so that our united efforts may push us towards, and beyond, journeys we could never have dared to yearn for alone. That we can be. Behold. Be beholden to one another. Brimztra bless us all.” - Inny Yuln’aher. • The Bardic Council • Art by the always lovely Unibearse!
