[Gatesedge] Releases for the Historian

[D. Vandever]

Thank you, Your Excellency. I knew I could count on you. At the moment, I
have a call into HL Alexander, Kingdom chronicler, to ask if the releases
given by the autor/artist are sufficient for publication on a historian's
page or if I need a separate release just for the electronic stuff. I will
keep you posted as to his answer.
Your Friend,
Annes
Dear God,  Help me to be the person
my dog thinks I am.  Amen
