The gully continues 'Eyes hurt? Turn Color OFF!! (regular story dates)

Astinus says 'Enter the main library here to view only the author list.'

Subject  An apprentice.


A young Silvanesti approaches the circle of Masters.

"Most honorable Masters," he begins "I wish to relate the
tale of...

myself." He giggles internally as the mages take in his
countenance with a
myriad of looks. Some quite bored, some thoughtful, most seem
just anxious to
be out of the uncomfortable chairs and on with their day.

Where to start.. he thinks.

"I was born the third son of Bromenthalis, Master of house
Aesit, of
Silvanost." he almost yawned as the statement bored him surely
as much as it
did the venerable mages.

"My life as of yet has lacked direction Masters," he recites,
for his
father had drummed the words into his head repeatedly, repeating
them back was
no chore of memory. "I have found a calling in the ways of the
arts, so my
father tells me."

He stops for a brief moment to quench his thirst upon a tome
resting on the
table.

"My apologies Masters," he stammeres, quickly averting his
gaze then
glancing from eye to eye as an any accomplished speaker will
"My journey was
long, and full of many unexpected surprises."

"Ah yes, my calling" he continues, "The fire in my blood
good Magi, is
the same fire within all of our blood here. It is the calling of
the
knowledge, my only want is to further my learning..." he pauses
momentarily
as the binding of the tome catches his eye once again.

"I only hope that I can live up to the leggacy my father
spreads before me
Magi," he halts... "I hope that I can live up to the leggacy
that I myself
set in motion."

He pauses, noting the expressions upon the faces of the Magi at
the table. A
black robe at the end of the table is twiddling his thumbs with
impatience.

"Honorable Masters" he continues, "My fate is upon your
hands." With
this said, he bows deeply and backs up to await the decisions.

Glaevanis Aesit, apprentice hopeful.
