Hello, beloved Ephia's Well. The Sisterhood Charity Auction, sponsored by the First Seat, will be beginning in approximately thirty minutes. We'll be auctioning off donated goods and services at the Verdant Stage to raise money for the new District. Beloved contributors to the auction include -
Faisal, Alejandro, and Legate Gausim. I'm certain there might be something for just about everyone. Have a wonderful day- and we hope to see you all there!
QuoteSister Selsi
I'd like to thank, again, all the participants in our auction! Together we've raised from this auction twenty four thousand and one Dinar for the new District fund, pushing us all along a little bit farther to beginning this great new work. Together we'll make our Well- and the world- a little bit better.
I hope you all have a wonderful day!
QuoteGausim al-Marain
Live. And Drink. I am pleased to announce that the Auction has resulted in 60,000 dinar donated to district costs of Shaimela's Splendor. 30,000 dinar from Auction and Donation, with a matching 30,000 dinar from Ephia's Treasury.
With the sums acquired we now officially have three fourths of the needed sum for the breaking of ground, while we still await the Gohari Survey as well as the other interested parties of investment. May I extend gratitude to you each and all for your contributions, as we near completion.
QuoteGausim al-Marain
With the announcement of the Auction to come in six days time, Five Writs I have seen drafted which, along with other merchandise and more, the Sisters shall be raising bids upon in hopes of securing funds for the new district.
The first shall be an invitation to the Ecstatic Terrace, to speak on any matter or policy you wish passed or merely to enjoy the view for as long as you like.
The second, Authorization from the First Seat for one month of Arms Bearing.
Third, Discount of Wand and Potion for one month's time.
Fourth shall be a Writ of Mercy, for as one who gives so very generously may have their judicial sentancing reduced. A letter of Character that may be introduced in one's defense, on behalf of the Mother B'aara.
And the finale piece. Authorization of Descent from the First Seat, for the remaining tenure of my time as Legate. Though one would still require authorization from the Second Seat. If you are charitable enough to the auction though your work cut in half. Come, spend, for best cause.

This is...this is-- Soldier Diadys. [He sniffs and groans, breath short] With a message. They-- oh gods... [He tries to keep his composure.]
QuoteLieutenant Vardgul Skarn
Coin'll be delivered as required, by the requested courier. Release the Magistrate as a sign of good intent. When you're free, al-Karim, make a bellows. Coin's not coming downstairs until we hear that bellows.
QuoteDiocletes Diadys
'We are the men...that Lieutenant Teg murd- murdered. I stood the line while the...the Cinquefoil Rose broke. While Lynneth was ch-... choking on her own blood.'
'And the Lieutenant will be coming to stand trial before the Sultan's men, or...or we are going to return his lit-...little pig- [A whimper] piggies in pieces next time we catch them.' [It is cut short at that]
QuoteLieutenant Vardgul Skarn
We haven't heard the Magistrate yet. Coin's not coming downstairs until we do.
QuoteFaisal Al-Karim
Hello everyone, I would like you to know that I am quite safe, and that they would like the money to be delivered for the Sergeant to be returned safely. Three minutes.
QuoteLucia Salacia
By none's leave, the Lion. A deal is a deal and it is made. I'll be watching you Samton, you coward, you left your men behind. I thought you were a soldier, not a Banda Rossa. You best get to work against them or I'll keep going .
QuoteSamton Ashworth
Qari's on his way, teleported away to deliver the coin, Lucia.
QuoteJerrod Felch
The faith you place in your institutions, Legate Gausim, does not seem to be shared overly much by those who reside in them. I'll try and work my way down the list, as I imagine by now, yer Sergeant's been returned and everyone's licking their wounds...
QuoteLucia Salacia
A thousand trampling feet upon the people below every day, a weight that must be lifted away. I wander freely among you and witness your actions and deeds, I witness the generous giving nothing to them but instead back to the cycle.
I will die in your plaza, or perhaps even to the lions, and be far less than a martyr or anything of note, but I will have died trying to save this world. I gather the fragments and piece them together, I wander where you cannot.
I find what is beyond your sight, and I gather those who are willing to witness the truth. My spear for the Queen, she who casts me out for my own ignorance still, she who's miracle was halted by the Rose.
But I wander still, two sets of foot prints wherever I do, and I see the salvation of this Well, this world. She, Queen Ibithal, daugther of the Mother herself....will return, and you will weep into my own blood when she does.
QuoteGausim al-Marain
Oh, Jerrod. It is faith in institutions, like faith in the Wheel, that is a sign of respect. Legitimacy born of, tended, and adhered to .Rites and Liturgy. Ritual. Protocol. Mandate.
I may not always agree with the Astronomers on matters of politic and policy, but there are few I trust more to ward me from the Ash and in pursuit of the Nameless Courts.
I may not see eye to eye with the Cinquefoil Rose, in their odd adherence to a past so far gone and a life unknown to me, of violence and Mankind's endeavor towards nobility, but I have rarely seen so easily capture the imagination of a chance, for more.
And while the Legion and I may have our disagreements, I trust them every waking moment iwth my life, as do many Citizens of this city. These institutions, the Accord. They bear such a heavy weight upon their shoulders.
QuoteHerald of Ephia's Well
Hear ye, hear ye! Let it be known that in their wisdom, Gausim al-Marain has hereby exiled Jerrod Felch from the settlement of Ephia's Well in perpetuity. Let them find no succor here!

May the Mother of Sultan's tears cleanse their hands, of the dirt they are soon to thrust them into.
QuoteAmbient Message
Word spreads that Gausim al-Marain has elevated Bashir Khatara to the position of Vizier.
QuoteBashir Khatara
'Ephia's Well. Good day.' [A nervous cough.] 'Today, I step into the role of Vizier, a role which, contrary to the belief of some, has never been quite so simple or singular. In my time as a Scribe, I have aspired to serve the Sultan, the Legates, and the people of Ephia's Well to the best of my abilities.'
'My role as a Vizier will continue that work. I shall aim to implement and inform of the foreign policy set forth by our Legates. I shall be an advisor, and an organizer. Beyond that, my responsibilities shall not be increasing.'
'In this, I shall be a Vizier al-tanfidh. I hope that I shall be able to assist in guiding Ephia's Well towards a brighter future. Thank you.'
QuoteGausim al-Marain
May the Vizier's rise, along with so many others before him, show testament to the good works to come from the Civil Service. In the coming days his office of Current Affairs, and many others to come shall be expanding and altering the ways they aid our fair settlement.
