[Western] A Challenge of Gothic Proportions

Did somebody call for a Quill? :)

People of the West of our great kingdom, hear me. I know that with my
impending relocation to the Central Region and the rumble of Gothic in the
distance has brought forward a few soft murmurings which question where my
loyalties lie. It saddens me to know that the fickle reputation of my kind
affects even my nearest neighbors. So it is that I hereby lay to rest any
fears of sedition on my part, even for those who this thought had not yet
occurred.

I am loyal to Ansteorra, and serve first and foremost the interest of the
mighty Sable Star .Yes, I have found a lasting place to call home and great
love here in the West, where beauty and strength abounds, and I would never
knowingly raise my hand or voice against the people here. It rends my
heartstrings to even think of a stain upon the reputation of any woman of
this land, least of all the magnificent Mistress and exceptional Excellency,
Baroness Oriana. Yet neither will I hear false faults said of the women of
Elfsea, and I refuse to alienate those who I would soon call neighbor.

This bard isn't much of a fighter, and I have no weapon to swear but my
tongue, which is already promised to the telling of Truth. You can be sure I
will cheer on the heroes and tend to the fallen with equal blindness. This
clash of brothers I will bear with sadness belied by my shouts for the
valour of not Bonwicke nor Elfsea alone, but of Ansteorran warriors. And
when the time comes to recall their might, my tongue will surely tell the
tale fairly. Though a colourful story it will doubtless be, my judgment
shall remain uncoloured. I see only black and gold, and am proud.
