the amount of vitriol that some people who repreatedly escape or reduce their own judgments due to their own popularity with the powers-that-be (and who are forgiven every insult or horrible behavior due to these connections) are flinging about is astounding and dismaying.
I wash my hands of every single one of you. All of you, although I do hope many will realize why I have to, for a time, take this measure once the fighting is done.

However, this still gives him absolutely zero right to release the sword to anyone, any more than I could release Ida's store to another just because I live there and am entrusted with the keys.

That being said, it was wrong to stoop, and for that, I apologize.

Relationship Note on Aleksei
You made one of the most solemn vows it is possible to make, and then broke it. Whether the Faith has decided it has been sufficiently suffered for or not, I can hold my opinion, just as you can, that's the beauty of the Whites. just as your choice of coarse language does not make your arguments any more comprehensive. However, I have made my opinions known, and have decided it is probably best for all concerned if I go back to my training and leave such things to those with the stomach for them.

If the Voice promised to make this up to you? then that is well, for a dishonor was done by this bastard of a traitor while he was still part of House Telmar. However, unless said Voice offered you this sword (and I have seen no evidence he has and in fact utterly has denied this), then the recompense does not need to include a House Sword that had no business being bet, could not be bet, and thus has no right to be held by anyone other than the chosen representatives of House Telmar.
As it stands, you seem to have rejected all efforts to repay this dishonor, and I wash my hands of you. As a personal measure unrelated to House Telmar, no words will evermore be spoken between myself and Bliss Whisper, save in matters of life and death should we be together on the battlefield against other foes.

However, I am no law student or a Lord of the realm, and my opinion is merely that. If I am factually incorrect, I am open to being corrected by one who would, beyond a shadow of a doubt, know the truth of such interpretation.

In my humble suggestion, one should take all facts into consideration when attempting to compare points and situations. That is not to say I have a full understanding of the recent troubles, for I am hardly 'in the know' of political matters.

In the event of my death, on the field of battle or otherwise, I want for my weapons and armor to be given to Ida, along with whatever mortal wealth I possess, to do with as she will. It is a paltry symbol, but I know she would do good works with it. If my body itself can be recovered in something resembling wholeness, I would like for it to be sent back to the Telmarch, to be buried by my family in our family plot, as if our tradition. Long have the Dastrid's served the realm in various capacities, and it would be my honor to rest there, with my kin.
It's a lovely spot really, near by father's forge, in a small valley under the protection of fine, hardy evergreens, with a babbling brooks singing most of the year nearby. In the spring, cardinals and bluejays roost upon the stones, and the morning frost at the end of the year gives a solemn, peaceful purity to the scene that I cannot ever quite describe in words alone. It is a feeling in my heart, and treasured much. But I pray, to all the Gods, that while I will do my duty, and not hesitate, that they will see it in their mercy to allow me more time before I join them. There is still so much to see. So much love to give. There is still so much left to the dance.

While those who fight the darkness must always be on the lookout for it, and be aware of its ways, but mindful of straying too far from the light, lest the darkness surround them.

Look no further than Ferron Arms & Armor! Located east of the City Center on Merchant Road, Dame Ida's shop is a place of quality and refinement. Never a dull blade or inferior steel here! No my good friend, Ferron Arms means /satisfaction/ from all who buy! So for all your stabbing, chopping, and slicing needs, think excellence! Think Ferron Arms & Armor!

On the one hand, it was exhausting, dangerous, and perhaps not even /that/ productive for the person who hired us to come out here. But on the other?
