Tidings, Aetherius,

I wanted to come out of my relatively quiet existence and slumber merely to say that I find it laughable to see one who purported to know the true desires of the White Hawk, who spouted such zealous words against magick, now to stand in defense of it.

In truth, and you may call me on it, I have little idea of the state of Aetherius and still have bare knowledge of the events that lead to the war against and ultimate destruction of the Gods. These new entities that have emerged are enigmatic to me and I am still yet unsure if I wish to explore Their teachings. I am ignorant of these matters.

Still, I know what I do know, which has caused me amusement ever since I first saw Lemuela disgracing the Duchy with her presence.

I return to my mostly dream-filled state. Perhaps the world will have changed again by the time I wander it fully once more.

Forever in service to the Lady Night,
- Alesud al-Hamasa
