I would like to appreciate this time in Temuair, where new beginnings are all around us! Just like how a seedling can grow into a tree, it is time for an Acolyte to advance into a Priest! I would like to introduce my disciple Strom! This mass will be his debut into his priesthood into the Cail temple.Earlier today he has ascended into the ranks as a true Cailite Priest!

Thank you, Lady Kourika.
Greetings, Aislings of Temuair. I am Strom Vervain. Over there is my loving wife, Aveni Vervain.
We hail from.. well.. I will save that for a later time.. However, we did come for a purpose. For several Deochs, I stayed in our homeland. As the forest grew dark and the creatures grew restless.. I, too, grew restless. As night elves, we are very in tune with nature. We feel it's pain, we feel its sorrow. Something, somewhere is disturbing the balance in the world. However, I am not here to bring foreboding news. In fact, I would like to share a reflection I have absorbed in the recent moons that I've spent walking amongst you.
During my lifespan, while studying the habits of those who reside in Temuair, I had always read about the eight religions and how, at times, there were even wars between
two temples. I believe, in a recent History class, Gliocan Cleric Merisa Lightbelle shed some light on specifics disagreements. Upon venturing here myself, I have discovered the opposite
to reign true. We have several worshippers, and more, amongst us from several different Shrines - all of us with different beliefs and practices. This is what I would claim to be a common occurence in the
Deochs of late.I do not believe this is a happy accident. No. This sort of harmonization can't be of sheer chance, contrary to what the Fiosachdians would have you believe. I believe we gather at these Masses for a deeper meaning.
Something has loomed over Temuair, and I'm willing to bet many of us feel it within. The support shown in these masses is favorable to our future. We must continue to remain intact, arm-in-arm. We must understand one another, before being understood. And I believe this balance amoungst the Shrines of Temuair will soon reveal a blessing from Danaan herself.
It is rumored the Shrine that resides in Hoige, now known as Blackstar Village, is an old Shrine to Danaan. Perhaps it will open soon. For now, let us bask in this harmony, continuing to respect one
another. Today, I thank each of you. And Cail thanks you, too.
~End~
