I was raised so that I could become, so that Godsworn rescuer said, 'The Sword of the Faith'. For many years I thought this meant he saw me one day as legate, an office I have never thought fitting for me. Though the old Sword of the Faith, a former Grandmaster himself, shows how one such as I can do so, I was still young. I am still young. Then we discovered that the title used to be held by a Templar who wielded a sword of the Faith. Perhaps this was the truth now, that he thought I would be the one to find this blade or forge one anew, to lead the Templars. This seemed more like me. This seemed perhaps an interpretation I could understand.
Now, with all the changes that come, I wonder instead if he did not see this time of change and threat coming. He may not have known what it would be, but he knew it would test us all. And he knew the Faith would need to declare for our cause, for the Gods, and fight for our beliefs. He knew that experience would mean less, as we had not fought wars like this in so long, no Templar alive had the experience. Instead it would be a long battle, a long war. One that needed young leaders to see it through. Perhaps that is what he meant. Perhaps that is why his successor elevated Dame Thena as well. Two young knights of the most humble origins to shepherd the Faith Militant.
All I know is that I will uphold the laws of the Faith and the commands of the Gods.

Relationship Note on Asger
Only time will tell if I end up missing you, but I regret the way you died.
Maybe the dream of finding peace and acceptance within the compact is more far-fetched than I ever realized.

Relationship Note on Michael
I cannot say how much I appreciate his doing all this without asking a thing in return. He does it because he wishes to make people happy. I hope I can thank him enough for his kindnesses.
He is very much a treasure and a beautiful friend.
He makes me feel so very blessed.
Thank you, sir.

The late stages of your wife's term is a particularly inopportune time to mock her for her poor balance, lack of grace, and general swollenness. Yes, she may be slower than normal and thus far less likely to strike, but it's only a matter of weeks -- perhaps even days -- until there will be a tiny, squalling person prone to all sorts of unpleasant eruptions that she can inflict on you as retaliation.
Beware a patient woman. You've been warned.

She dragged a fractured Compact back together. Not losing our uniqueness, not operating as a single whole, but functioning together in a way that was to each of our benefits. For this, the Queen immortalized her vision in Whisper House, naming her Radiant - born from the seeds of chaos, we have always struggled to embody the best in life. What we all could be.
There is a very special kind of person who becomes a Whisper. To chase nearly superhuman excellence requires a dedication and a sense of purpose that many cannot reach. We must remain neutral in action, though we are human and have our ties.
The people I have worked with and lived with are among the best in the Compact. I am incredibly honored. I will try to live up to the trust they have placed in me, and make us brighter, illuminate the Compact in another chaotic time.
To make us all radiant.

But prodigals, freed thralls, and uppity neonobles? By the gods, society's absolutely doomed and the end will surely be upon us if we let this continue.
The mendacity of politics will never -not- be tiring.

I believe it might be best I make a brief journey back home, to Pridehall.
I'm feeling a bit homesick.
I miss mother and father,as well as the others.
If all goes well, I expect to return to Arx in the next couple of days.
After all, my heart does yearn deeply for someone here in the capital.
I wouldn't bare staying away for too long.
