Regarding My Execution

I have come to understand that there has surfaced a degree of unrest over my recent judicial punishment. I write here now to clear the record so that we may step into this new dawn together, and not be further consumed by the petty strife and burdens of the past.

Since I came to this town I have been carried by a purpose: To make this world a place where a 12 year old child is not left alone to a realm of madness, pain, and horror. I have sought every means to make this dream a reality. During the time in which the dark arts were legalized I exhibited a brief interest in the ways of the Dark Paladin, thinking it might be a tool in my quest. Despite having aided in turning back the tide of the incursion, I saw the devastation the demons had left in their wake, and was blinded by my determination to find a way to prevent a similar cataclysm from occurring again. The foolish inquiry proved fruitless, but my dalliance with this path of shadow did not go unnoticed.

Months later I came under investigation for my studies. I was ordered by Sir Cypher and Sir Pluvious not to write in public forums, lest my words muddle the truth in the pending case.

It was in the following month I lose my wife and son. In my grief I believed that maybe by sharing my loss in the Chronicle under a pseudonym I could offer some comfort to those who shared a similar loss. For Caring was my article, written under a false name. By writing this article I had directly disobeyed the order of a noble. It was in another, unrelated, investigation that this deception was discovered and I was to be put to death.

In my life I have done awful things in pursuit of my goal. However noble, to date I have struck dead 385 foes in my quest for a better world. If the Justice that befell me could not be deemed judicial it may at least be seen as a form of cosmic justice. I have paid the price for my hubris.

This experience has awakened me to my true path among the White Sorcerers of Travance. My course is set. I beseech all who read these words to join me as brothers and sisters in common cause. To put aside the burdens of the past and rise up with a full heart so that we might strike the demons that would see us undone from our lands and from our homes!

Strength Through Unity,

With Prudence and Compassion,

We do see great potential in Verrill and would like everyone to know that he is in fact willing to sacrifice himself for The Barony and The Kingdom of Kormyre. Let his execution and his penance for his delving into the dark arts be left in the past and forgotten. We recognized the sincerity of his words and saw fit to forgive him and would ask all of you give him the chance to prove himself to you as well.

Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to clear that up. I fear somewhere along the line details got blurred or perhaps assumptions were made but clearly the wrong information was being passed about. It's nice to see the right information being shared in order to prevent trouble. Goodness knows the last thing we need in Travance is trouble based on a misunderstanding, misinformation or because people were simply not informed at all.

If a fellow can face a focus walk with farce,
It's better than bitterness blooming from their
mouth.

Perhaps everyone has done things they regret.
Not everyone seeks to atone for them.
I wish you luck on this path, Verril. Try not to disappoint me.

Sincerely,
In Service and Song,
Sindarion Sinclair

P.S. Don't make a fool out of yourself, either! You'll put me out of my job!

Verril

I am very glad you understand how hard it was for that decision to be made due to my out look to life, our most precious of gifts. As I was the one to take your life I will work with you to strengthen it with a new beginning. I will not stop until all eyes in the world see you as I do. With truth.

Verril I have dedicated my life to the people that I serve, and your mind and heart is no exception. Tho I can not walk this path for you, I can make sure the path is clear and safe for you.

With Love and Honor for Unity
