Caramiriel takes out a new book, with a custom crafted leather cover.



She opens it and begins to write in green ink and flowing Elven script.

" Greeting my fellow Silvanites.

I have been writing about my experiences since my arrival to Thay. I still will be, but have decided since I am now a Druidess of Silvanus, a seperate account of experiences and tasks in my role as a priestess and shrine keeper for future storage in the Grove archives. For those who may not have heard of me some brief background.

I arrived as most have through intervention of the unknown wizard. Though a follower of the Father and Druid my path was unclear. I am half Elf and half Mulhorandi and may have been that human half which made my path unsure. As foretold by the Soothsayer that my questions would be answered, I chose Bezantur.My clan had set me up with housing and starting funds.

I traveled extensively, made acquaintances and worked hard to survive eventually ending up with the Priador legion, my base being Bezantur. It was difficult to say the least, however I finally achieved the rank of captain. It was sometime after that, that things started to change. The Zulkirs seemed upset that non-Mulhorandi were achieveing high ranks in the military. An edict was issued that only pure Mulhorandi could advance to rank of captain or tribune. Mixed race as long as one was human, lieutenant and all others sergeant. A grace period was given for those wishing to leave and the death penalty for leaving the legion would be waived.

In hindsight, the edict helped to show me my true path. During my rise and involvement with the legion, I seemed to be coming more soldier and less Druid though my powers were increasing. Mayhap it was my Mulhorandi heritage blocking my Elven side. I saw captain Azura, also of Silvanus and a Druid, and half Elf like myself, as just that, a Captain not a sister Druid ,Elf or of faith. Silvanus seemed to sense my in decision and mayhap was disappointed in Azura that He decided to intervene."
