To whomever may be able to answer:
I have been away for a number of months travelling and studying and hope to return next moon.
Unfortunately none of the recent travelling merchants have had any current news of Zenithstrand. If someone would kindly spend me a letter, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Also, which town should I arrive in? Have we regained Sylvanwood?
Sincerely,
Leigheas Helbrede, Packmate of Bjarke the Protector, Master Physician.
Tamuru,
That is glorious news! Has anyone had a moment to check on Myca and their children, nay by now I'm sure they have a full clan? If any see them before I arrive, please tell them children in Mjoll are being inspired by tales of Myca the Mighty.
I am hoping to make similar arrangements with the Einher Mate-of-All-Trades to lease their cabin again, but if that doesn't work out I will gladly head to the bardic circle.
I have learned much from the Elders and other Wise Einher here. There are still answers I'm seeking, but I hope those will be found back in Zenithstrand.
Until then, stay safe.
Sincerely,
Leigheas Helbrede,
Packmate of Bjarke the Protector, Toymaker, Master Surgeon
Leigheas,
There has been no sign of Myca or the others, however, I can provide you with answers that you may not know you seek.
If you remember our business with the Deadlands last summer regarding the Helgard Vanguard, the clan of Bjarke and myself, may it bring warmth to your heart to know that those who were lost are now found. Silt's influence on their spirits had withered when the orb was imprisoned. And so with Valdr's aid I once again entered the deadlands, and was able to lift the curse that binds them there, allowing them to enter Valhalla.
I did not see all of their faces, but I like to think Bjarke was among them, though I believe the path he walked would allow him into Vesmir's fold. Without him I could never have saved the lost spirits of our clan. He carved a path for me to follow until I could carve my own, and I would say today his legacy has been honored.
You are always welcome among the Helgard Vanguard.
Garrik,
That is indeed heartwarming news! I am glad Chieftain Ursin's kin and clan are now freed and with their ancestors.
I am honoured beyond words that my mate is considered so highly, and to be welcome among he and your kin.
I have a couple of small matters to finish here, and hope to be amongst all of you soon.
Stay safe,
Leigheas Helbrede, Packmate of Bjarke the Protector, Toymaker, Master Physician
