IobeyU Oh - Slaver

Name: IobeyU Oh

I was born in a far away kingdom ruled by women from over the sea.
Our people escaped from the Mayan civilization, when the Spanish destroyed our main cities. We fled south, through the jungle, and finally established ourselves near the Rio Maranon, because it was impossible to go further into the Inca's kingdom.
The only men we met in our travels were captured to provide our group with the seed to continue our population but they were not strong enough to ensure our survival.

With our need for population growth and our great skill in astronomy, our queen decided to send slavers around the world by sea, to collect new citizens or workers.
A lot of slavers died because our ships were not strong enough to survive the treacherous seas.
I am part of the royal family, but being only the third from the throne I could be sacrificed to our gods, or selected as a leading warrior which requires that my right breast be cut from my body to improve my ability to use the bow. My Queen offered me the choice of becoming a slaver, which I gratefully accepted.
One night, we saw stranger's in two boats on the Maranon River, and managed to capture one of the craft. After killing all men except their leader, a lieutenant of Francisco de Orellana, who we force to show us how to sail the boat and the way to his country. After three months on board, we made land fall in a new world, known to us as the Spanish kingdom. We were too few to take control of it, so we choose to travel north and south, which is why I have learned a few words of others languages. North was too cold for us, and so we began travelling to the south. We discover a new sea, much calmer and begin to explore it, after having fed the lieutenant to the sharks.
One day, we discovered this Kingdom, and for now, I stay here, trying to get my ship filled with enough crew to return to my country.
With so many travels in this multitude of lands some of my beliefs have changed, however I still at times display many harsh habits from my home country.
Even if I'm less cruel than before I still hold too many traditions from my past, our gods are death and the sun, and we frequently make sacrifices to them.
As a sea traveler, I sometimes I offer prey to the Death God of the sea, by the Sharks, to gain us good winds, and a safe land fall.
A lot of people say that I only use slaves for my own pleasure, but this is not the case, because my quest is to return to my country only women strong enough to survive there. With this in mind I must learn if the women I capture will be content and capable of serving in the Kingdom of Women...
Gold in these strange lands of my travels is a mystery to me. In my country Gold is but a beautiful metal for the making of plates, utensils and jewelry with maîs used as our only form of money. Needless to say, our Mayan people have suffered greatly from the strangers coming to kill us for this worthless metal.
So understand I place little value on Gold and have not come to seek it.

Anoron Al-Djinn of Marid

Anoron Al-Djinn of Marid (SL Name Anoron Hanson)

With the rise of the new religions and the spread of the Magi Domination, the hand of the Djinn were increasingly lost. The Djinn tribes could not hold back even the early incursions that the Dark Magi and had brought upon the lands and its sultans. Fearing either destruction or the flight of all Djinn from the land of the mortals, the tribes held a great meeting in the Sacred Mountains of Asir. Here Al-Yazid, a great Jinn sheikh, set forth the great Choice.
He had had a vision in the desert, in which a great scythe in the shape of a crescent moon had split a great Djinni in half. In order to survive, Al-Yazid told the Djinn tribes they must side with the Magi, or against them. There was much debate over the vision, and the mountains were rocked by skirmishes between groups of the Ifriti tribe and those of the Jinn tribe under Al-Yazid. Finally, the leaders of the tribes agreed to decide, but only on a tribe by tribe basis. The Djnn and their allies, sided with the Magi tribes. The Dark Djinn sided against the Magi, for they had been corrupted by demons hiding within the Ifriti, whose choice for evil was never in doubt.
The sheikh of the small Marid tribe allowed the Djinni of his tribe to decide as individuals, for the Marid are very proud and the strongest of the Djinni.

As a result of this decision two of the Djinn who resided among the human tribes in Persia made ready for the birth of their child. It was born to them a daughter, Anoron, or Agape to the Dijinn. Malik the father and one of the Djinn of Marid high counsel decided to have his daughter learn among the Magi. This gesture had pleased the Magi and so after many months the child grew to know the basic knowledge taught by the mystics. Also, in good faith the Magi declared that she is to have a Master to guide her with her lessons. This Master was to be Akri of Ad, that was his Mystic title yet he is known as Severus, Prophet of the Sands.

Anoron's teachings thus began in Ireem Zhat al Imad, The great City. There she met the Prophet of the Sands who now guided her training. She became skilled with the gift of sight and learned on her own that of tarot and tea reading and had brought with her great knowledge of the most powerful herbs used by the Djinn.

Aiesha Ansar - Prey/Slave

My god I an so bored, ten days on this boat with no company except these loutish sailors, and they smell so badly, and they have no manners, why I don’t even think any of then can actually read, it is so horrible. I find the whole thing so utterly boring and inconvenient, why could not my father arrange a decent marriage for me, he’s so stupid, and my mother made no attempt to stop this, she’s just a doormat, I hate them both. I know why he did this, it’s the dowry, all I am to him, to them is a source of wealth, I am being treated like an animal, sold off into marriage to a complete stranger, for their profit. I hope this man, this Ahmed al Burq, is going to understand that I will insist on being treated with the honour I deserve. It is well known at home that I am
beautiful, a delicate flower, exquisite and fragrant my Father described me as to his friends, although of course they never saw me, never saw anything of me beneath the veil, except my eyes which I knew were as attractive as could be, huge and doe like, I often raised them to steal a surreptitious glance at his guests, after all I have to be careful, too look directly at any man would be
disgraceful. I grow tired of sometimes of hiding my curiosity, always with my eyes demurely lowered, always swathed in robes to ensure I do not become the object of mens lust.

How did this man come to lust after me then, Shira, my maid told me she though
perhaps a eunuch had described my loveliness, and so this man, my husband to be
arranged to marry me, to establish a business arrangement with my Father in
which I was the cement to bind the contract. Why he needed to do this is beyond
me. He is the wealthiest merchant in the entire country, but I know a girl is
nothing, just a thing to be passed from her father to her husband with no
opportunity to experience life, or love. It is so unfair!!
I keep myself to my cabin, a poor affair, there are no tapestries on the
walls, and the floor is bare, my furnishings are basic, my bed not the soft
heaven of home, but a lumpy ordeal each long and undulating night. I gaze out
the small window at the never ending vista of azure sea, and despite my
revulsion, hope each day that I will hear the cry of land, and that we will
arrive at Ireem at last.
I have heard much of Ireem, how truly fabulous it is, but surely it cannot
compare to home, no of course not. But my unknown husband must be rich, he must
be able to keep me in at least the same comfort as I enjoyed at home. If it is
not considerably better, I will make his life unbearable, he will need to treat
me well to molify me for this unendurable journey.

My name is Aiesha Asran, and I am twenty years old, before this journey began
I lived my entire life in the womens quarters of my Fathers palace, a haven of luxury and beauty, and although I suppose I was pampered from birth, it was no more than I deserved. I know I am beautiful, all the harem slaves say so, all the eunuchs say so, and so I should not have been surprised I suppose when my life was turned upside down in a few short minutes. Oh, of course I knew I would be married off, I knew I would have to give my body to a man in time, I even wanted to do that. I had heard the slaves and maids giggling about the joys of love, I wanted love, but I wanted to choose the man I was to surrender myself to. I thought my Father who always seemed to dote on me, would allow me this small privilege, but no, the greedy pig!

Aiesha is unworldly and spoiled, but she is not wrong about her beauty, nor is
she wrong about her arranged marriage. Her future husband has arranged her
passage to Ireem, and intended to meet her from the ship and convey her to his
home far inland beyond the borders of the Kingdom of Sand. He was on his way
with his entourage to meet his bride when they were attacked by outlaws, the
entire party was killed, and their bodies lie in the sands, food for vultures
and other carrion eaters for days now. And so when Aiesha arrives at Ireem, she
will not be met by a husband, she will find herself alone and at the mercy of
fate. To add to her woes, she has no idea of how to exist outside her life of
pampered luxury, nor of course does she have any money. After all why would
she, money was something only ordinary people needed to worry about. What will
become of her, when she steps off the boat, swathed in her robes and veiled,
how will her life change?

Seiya Perl - Guest at the Sultant's court

Name (Full SL Name): Seiya Perl

Age: 22

Your group/occupation/level: Citizen/ Serving Girl at the Good Knight's Inn and Dancer

Brief background story of your character:

Seiya was born in a far off land. Born the 6th daughter to the head chief of a nomadic desert clan. Named after the field of stars which shown above her on her first day of life. On a faithful eve the clan was raided by a group raiders.

The young girl, about ten years old, was taken pensioner to a large desert town of Irahs. Seiya was sold to the sultan as a slave girl for his large heram. Growing up in the heram she learned the art of basic service, dance, and basic survival skills from the other female's who lived their. Shortly after the girl bloomed into a beautiful young maiden.

The young girl noticed the sultan's eye upon her. On the Eve of her 18th year she was summoned to the Sultan's chambers. The young woman approached the male cautiously. With out warning the older male suddenly pulled her onto his bed. Seiya quickly drew a hidden dagger, stabbing the Sultan repeatedly in his side. The site of the blood scared the young woman. In a pancake she grabbed a flask of water, and the man's prized sword -- the blade of the moon . Fleeing the castle via the back ways.

The older teen would end up wondering the desert sands. With very little water she feared that the end would be near. Yet, in the distance she spotted a town. There, the kindly Jennifer took pity and offered Seiya a job at the Good Knight Inn.

Character personality traits, strengths, flaws:

Seiya strong willed and forceful and has strong convictions, though as they seek truth above all things. In company She tends to come off as fiercely independent, refusing lead than follow the crowd. She dislikes interference or aid by others. She is very sunburn and will only accept aid if it’s on her own terms. She thinks profoundly and deeply to thoroughly explore all possibilities before deciding on safer alternative. In spite of the often intensely introverted personality, she has a desire to aid her people.

She dislikes interference or aid by others. A very stubborn individual, she will only accept aid if it’s on her own terms. In most personal relationships Seiya is often ill-at-ease, if not downright unhappy. She can be somewhat self-centered but not excessively so, wary and cautious around unfamiliar people. The young woman treats casual acquaintances with diplomacy, tact and, above all, reticence. She tends to be intensely loyal to the few people she calls true friends as well as her clan.

To seek affection, she can exert an almost hypnotic and irresistible disposition. Fast becoming a tenacious friends or lover, ready to sacrifice everything for the said partner.

UPDATE Jun 23, 2008:
As the weeks went by, Seiya slowly became bored with her current occupation. Once she earned enough to afford a camel she left the city and traveled north. She would often stop at small cities along the way, often earning her way by dancing and performing on the streets. Because of her pose and grace she would sometimes be involved to perform in nicer soundings. During her travel's she picked up a few more sensual based skills.

It was during one of her performances that she caught the eye of a young lord, a relative of the ruling family. Seiya would visit the young man daily. Often enchanting him with her tales of forign lands and her knowledge of the arts. Beguiled by the young woman's gifts, the young lord used his clout to invite Seiya to his cousins court.

The young woman would continue to learn the various gifts to "entertain" more like the young lord. All she earned would go to the bettering of herself in the arts, culture, poetry, calligraphy, and other intellectual pursuits.

Soon news would reach the court of a royal's engagement to a princess in a city to the south. Seiya gladly traveled with the court -- to the city of Ireem.

The young woman who once started off as a simple barmaid is now a guest at the fair Sultana's court.

Severus Seversky - Prophet of the Sands

Severus, The Prophet of the Sands:

It is said that his heritage stems from the nearly mythical tribe of Ad, he grew up a shepherd but his gift of sight and sensitivity to the spirit realm led him to travel to forgotten and unholy places across the Middle East in search of knowledge of such matters. The first of these led him to Egypt where he studied under the notorious wizard, Yakthoob alongside Abdul Alhazred the Mad. After his master's death by a monstrous being in the middle of the marketplace of Damascus, he and the other discples of Yakthoob followed Alhazred to Memphis and then to Ireem where many were killed by dark forces summoned by a cult of the Old Ones before they ever arrived. Alhazred the Mad made it to Ireem and stayed there in what he called The Nameless City, an ancient city of catacombs and reptilian horrors and other dark beings burried deep beneath Ireem. Severus had fled with the remaining few disciples to Alexandria to await his master. Once Alhazred returned, he seemed changed, uneasy with all around him and would say little of what he saw in Ireem. He was asked by authoroties in Alexandria to dispel the evil from a Black Mosque and when he and his disciples failed to do so they were banished. Severus followed his master to the Valley of Tombs and the Black Mountain in Turkey before settling for a time in Damascus where he continued his studies and research into ancient and forbidden arcana, much troubled by the dark sorceries and practices he had witnessed in the Black Mosque. He wandered the sands again with his master, traveling to Chorazin on the Sea of Galilee where his master, Alhazred fell into a trance that lasted for eight years. He tended to his master as he wrote the Kitab al Azif, later known as the Necronomicon and read the manuscript that would forever change him by opening his eyes to the elder darkness that sought to reenter this world. During his master's trance, he learned through the use of magical procedures and alchemical potions how he was able to gaze upon different worlds and dimensions where Alhazred saw much of what he recorded in the book.

It was during one of these trances that a powerful vision struck him. He saw Irem, the City of a Thousand Pillars as it was in its birth. First built by terrible creatures of great size and colossal strength before the time of man and before it was cursed and covered by the desert sands, losing its name. He saw his ancestors, the two brothers and joint rulers of the city of Ad, Shaddid and Shaddad. He watched the tragic and mysterious death of Shaddid and the corruption of Shaddad who became egotistical and decided to create an imitation of the celestial paradise on Earth. He gave orderes to build a great city and garden in the desert upon the bones of another ancient city. Severus watched as time passed swiftly in his vision until it seemed to come to the present day and darkness began to creep anew from the foundations of Irem where his master had unwittingly left open a portal. He saw a great dark storm upon the horizon and furtive figures in dark cloaks with hollow eyes and hollow hearts preying upon the unwary citizens and making diabolic sacrifices to the terrible being that waited seeking entry just outside the portal. His vision focused upon a great tower adorned with serpents and the shadow of a titanic Worm shrouded it and an icy wind tore through the city, shattering the ornate towers, freezing the citizens in place where they crumbled, and chilling him to the bone. His last vision saw the carved figure of a reaching hand above one of Irem's gates and a silver key descending into its grasp, at that point the entire city blew apart and was scattered, lost to the swirling sands. Just before he awoke, he saw figures in black scuttling amidst the ruins accompanied by fell and unholy beasts howling in triumph as something evil beyond the scope of mortal mind emerged from the broken stones. Severus snapped awake, his raven hair, skin and eyes leached of all color and his breath fogged the air as though he were still in the dream. His pale flesh never lost the chill that touched him from his vision and he knew he had to return to Irem to try and stop what he had seen.

Alexa Vhargon - Prey

Name (Full SL Name): Alexa Vhargon

Age: 21

Your group/occupation/level: prey

Brief background story of your character:

i came to the kingdom by accident .. at least that was what i was made to believe until it was too late. the guide i hired just after i arrived in one of those last outpost of civilization .. was supposed to show me to the nearby villages .. where i planed to buy precious stones and metals .. but he claimed to know of a much better place to find even more riches .. and i was naive enough to believe him.

when he claimed to have lost his way .. i should have been suspected foul play .. and turn around to find my way back .. but i still trusted him .. and so i was lead right into the middle of my personal nightmare .. the kingdom of sands.

out of nowhere .. two armed men appeared and my guide began to talk to them in a strange dialect i did not understand .. with growing panic .. i realized soon that they were haggling over my prize. i didn’t wait around to find out how much i would have been worth to them .. i ran as fast as i could .. and i have always been a great runner .. smiles

i escaped that time .. and countless times after that .. relying on my skills i made it so far .. stole clothes to make me look inconspicuous .. i stole food and water to stay alive .. but i haven’t found my way back to civilisation yet

Character personality traits, strengths, flaws:

i am independent and stubborn .. and will not submit willingly .. and even when i should get forced .. if that ever happens .. i’ll try to escape .. my main strength is .. that i don’t give up and run like the wind (ask some of those who tried to cap me) .. my main flaw is .. that .. even after all this .. i’m still pretty naive

More Info coming soon.

Zanlu Heron - The Sultana

Yes, I am Sultana Zanlu`

I am about 24 years old, but I am not sure ... Some moments i feel so young and cheerful and ...at other times.... when hard reality brings me to my duties ... I feel to be very .. very old.

I was born in Ireem as a daughter of the great Sultan Kalan, still remembered by all for his vision and wisdom.

I spent my childhood in the large palace with my parents, 4 brothers, 2 sisters, 14 stepbrothers and 12 stepsisters (whom my great father conceived with some of his adoring slaves)

We were a happy family ... In the castle, despite the wars and battles around .. we could breathe the serene air.

I still remember when the friends of father came to visit us .. I was enchanted by these long caravans where every camel was full of new things .. transported from distant lands as gifts for us ... but above all I was fascinated by the tales of what the guests had seen and done.

Then with time, things changed .. My father began to get old ...then my mother died.

This caused my Father great pain as he had loved his sweet wife, my Mother, above all else.

Soon after this he chose to relinquish command of the Kingdom to his oldest son, my beloved brother.

Little by little the other brothers and sisters took their seperate paths .. all away from Ireem ... and I was very sad and I felt so alone.

The new Sultan, knowing my desire to learn new things, granted me my wish to travel around the world, accompanied ,of course ,by brave knights and some slaves.

I studied philosophy,astronomy, mathematics and medicine at the school of Avicenna, but I was especially fond of music and poetry.

I made many long journeys, I spent 2 years in Europe ... I learned many languages .. I met many interesting people .. Yes ... this was the life that I liked.

Then, suddenly my adored brother .. the great Sultan, died

I was told that I had to take his place .. that this was my duty.

I came back quickly to Ireem and became Sultana.

Oh ... at the beginning it was difficult .. I had so many things to learn ... and governing is not as easy as it might seem.

Fortunately the sweet princesses Sarai (Jacqueline Aluveaux) and Mehri (Lillie Vella), orphans of my beloved brother, live with me.

I have many other people around me .. .loving and helping me.. sure ...but in the end decisions must be taken by me. So all day, when I ask God for peace and for the prosperity of my people ...I ask Him also to give me, so young,the wisdom to do what I must do.

I have a good cheerful character .. .. I like to laugh and joke and chat.

Like every young woman I hope to meet the BIG LOVE ....... everybody tell me that there must be a prince ... no no ... I 'm only looking for a man who has to be handsome, intelligent, cultured, exciting, charming, brave, sensitive and rich.

Ah ...and by the way... if someone betrays me .. I will kill them!

Ponzio Rossini - Beduin/Sheikh

Name (Full SL Name): Ponzio Rossini

Age: 25 years

Your group/occupation/level: Beduin/predator/sheikh

Brief background story of your character:

Born in the Serenissima Republic of Venice in 1175 A.D. knew the success as ambassador or the Republic in Costantinopoli under the Doge Enrico Dandolo.
The situation of the Adriatic Sea, characterized by continuos wars against the various kingdoms was now calm, and everyone tought that the Dogato and his Doge were ready to take wanted sweet retirement..but anyway something was in the air, new events that would have changed the assets of the world were arrived at the breakeven point. New events that would have involved directly Venice and Ponzio as well... The IV Crusade... Pope Innocenzo III promoted this war in 1201 AD. The trups were ordered to depart from Venice, the fact is that there were no money enough to pay the Venetian for the service given, so Dandolo decided to use these trups for his needs, preferring to conquer lands instead of moving to the Holy Land

Costantinopoli

In his Quality of ambassador and known for his skills of "merchant" Ponzio Rossini was asked to plan the assedium of Costantinopoli, the capitol of the Bizantin Empire, one of the most rich cities of the world. Thanks to his friendship with Alessio IV, the former emperor, and with the excuse of helping him to sit again on the throne, Ponzio was able to let introduce the crusaders in the city, and they took it the 17 july 1203. After months of internal disputes all the Empire was divided by the crusader.

Thanks to the victory of Costantinopoli the powers and fame of Ponzio Rossini were almost equal to the one of the Doge, and in order to not let explode an internal war within the Republic, Ponzio was asked to go in mission into a strategic region in Arabia, strategic for the economy of Venice, because of the contact with the far east. The journey to that land was indeed a trap and the ship that was bringing them to Arabia was attacked by pirats in accordance with the Republic. They left no prisoners, the only way to survive was the sea full of sharks.

And the Sea brought Ponzio here in this land. Not knowing nothing of the place he was now, not knowing the language and starved,at the port decided to work as a shipmate, thanks to his ability in working on a ship. Here discovered how things works in this land, and started his own war, decided to retake full powers and return to Venice as an Enemy


Character personality traits, strengths, flaws:

Ponzio is a gentleman with the passion of the conquest. Is superb, not modest at all, sometimes rude, but is also kind and romantic...anyway is fashionable, and almost everyone love and hate him at the same time, women cause he has too many and is not able to satisfy them all (lol) and male cause they are not able to kill him

Yman Juran - Court Jester

Name in sl: Yman Juran.

I started from nothing last year, as an artist in real life ...I had an idea of creating myself in SL as such. I worked for months....searching, investigating and talking with many people in my attempt to find my tools or get them created. Many beautiful people have helped me all along..Even until today where I am considered one of the best. My circus troup: ChangHigh Trinity Sisters Fireshow of Light, Life and Love performs everywhere where people want us or where we get a gig, or collect Linden to help others, solidarity......sisterhood..brotherhood......to enlighten our fellow beings in a positive way....

Am real life artist in First Life just as I also am in SL?
Has been for almost 30 years i First Life and a bit more than 500 days in Second Life..

My path in RL is… as a child of The Most high, I don't associate in art groups or art org. Am independent and autodictactive and function as a solitary messenger. I don't believe in unions of mortal kinds. I trust my Creator, Father and accept what happen...not blindly or out of lack of doing something about it...but with an inner knowledge that all comes from The First Source and Center and even I may not understand why things goes the way they donesd...It all works out to the ultimate best for a maximum of people..in the long run.....and if we...the mortals ...in cosmic consciousness really are immortals, then what happen here on earth in a lifetime is but a nono second in eternity...so I can wait for better times...there is much work to be done right here where we all are...my personal opinion or pleasure is secondary to the evolution of The Most High.

My path in Sl is to enlighten and uplift the culture, wherever I am, and where I have permission to do so.
I like to perform, both solo and together with my sisters or slaves. However we dont perform on anyones request.. We are loyal to The Most High, and Our Queen in The Kingdom of Sand.
I carry no deadly weapon but my words can cut you up if you don't behave respectfully to a free woman or even think the unthinkable and say it loud....:-)
I am the Court Jester of the Mercy of The Most High and do have certain extra ordinary gifts of influencies on my surroundings, but by its own nature I cant speak thereof.
I share my Light, Life and Love with whoever bring pleasure to my spirit and soul...my personality will decide and I obey.

I travel extensively in SL, helping many but knowing only a few..and the ones who seem to be the lucky ones must bear with my curiosity and impulsiveness when it comes to friendship.
Befriend me not out of politeness or because I am what I am..but because you like to join me in my endeavor to improve our lives in here...cause this is why I am here... I need no money or horizontal service out of needs..I don't enjoy pleasure through pain and misery...but I delight in goodness, beauty and righteousness.

This may be Sct. Peppers Lonely Heart Club land or perhaps it is the new Slabylon..but to me ..it is much more...not only a dreamland of my dreams...but a true world of real friends ....far away in many countries...friends of a spiritual nature and as such I like it....

Remember:

“A display of specialized skill does not signify possession of spiritual capacity. Cleverness is not a substitute for true character.”

Urantially in service from Court Jester of KoS and to Sultana Zanlu and Gor, Lady Fabien... Court Designer to Her Royal Highness Princess Janine, Grand Duchess of Debevec & Lady of the Versailles Court and an angel from ChangHigh Trinity Sisters Fireshow of Light, Life and Love..............Lady Juran....alias Yman Juran

Sassy Jaxxon - Physician

Sassy Jaxxon - Physician

Two fortnights ago, in the dead of night, my tiny tropical kingdom was invaded by rogue pirates. Our defenders were unable to protect me (a princess) and other members of the Royal Family. I escaped on a small raft and somehow arrived on the shores of the Kingdom of Sand. Almost immediately, distraught and disheveled, I was chased unmercilessly by slave traders (who look strangely familiar) and, once in awhile, I was caught. A fortnight after my arrival, I landed a job as a potter. I intend to save my earnings and find my way back home.... if it still exists.....

..... Weary of wet clay and aggressive predators, I decided to explore the city and discovered a vast library. I snuggled into a comfortable chair with a medical text and became fascinated! Over the next several days, I read every book in the library relating to medicine and healing. I spoke in passing to the Sultana of my new passion and she decided I would best serve the Kingdom as the physician... healing everyone, citizens, knights, and predators alike. The medical facility and my services are available to anyone who requires them.

It does concern me somewhat that a rogue predator tribe will capture me and take me to their camp for their own use, not allowing me to heal any but their own. However, I am skilled with my blade... I will not leave my position as Palace Physician without a fight. I will defend myself if I need to.

Although I am not actively defending the city nor fellow citizens any longer, I will continue to train new knights and armed citizens in basic swordplay.
