Ayrielle

*quickly scampers up to the board and uses a tack to post up a rather long letter which reads:*

"Hello. For all who may be unaware of who has left these words within your home, my name is Ayrielle. I am a sister of the circle, and have long called many of your family my freinds.

This evening past I was invited upon a most grand adventuring for which I am very grateful to have taken part in. Myself, along with Finneas, Tuppen, Elsbet, Rorack, and Titaisia had venturing into a place of Norrath known as the Plane of Growth... a land long rumored to be personally touched by Tunare herself.

I was very much anxious to see such a place, missing my home as much as I do. Upon arrival, I was pleased to see the rumors of beauty had not been exaggerated upon. If any, the rumors could not keep up with the elegance of the lands! Although, I must have been overly sleepy upon entering, as every being of the land resembled Finneas (who I am informed is neither a Rolling Plains Steed nor a Entrancing Water Nymph) but two quick naps cleared my head well enough. Wonderful beings of all sorts called this plane of growth home, and my dear sister Leani is already excited about someday seeing such a place for her own, and perhaps finding more answers to her questions than I had.

Tuppen took ourselves upon a tour which ended in what many probably wished to see above all others. According to the rumors, Tunare herself lives within a great tree within the center.

I had my doubts of such before making our way to the tree, but I was most curious to see what this tree would hold. Perhaps here there would be a statue of unimaginable detail of what one thinks Tunare may look like, or perhaps just the tree itself, believed to be a mortal representation of Tunare. But I held onto the hopes that perhaps Tunare had come for a visit! I have long missed herself! Perhaps even Erollisi would be allowed to visit in spirit!

But as we climbed into the tree and walked within the highest room, I was greeted by one claiming to be Tunare herself! I did all I could to keep from slapping this imposter across the face for such a claim!

This being stood before me, one who has Tunare herself to personally thank for being within your lands of Norrath, and continued to decieve! She completly ignored every note I handed her as if I did not even exist in her eyes! I had my hopes of a long awaited hug shattered by the silence of a... a... I do not know what! I was tempted to whisper into her ear, to see what results such would have... but I could not think seriously. I would never forgive myself at having caused the death of this Tunare-imposter, despite her actions. Nor would I forgive myself if any of my friends, who were huddled at her feet, happened to overhear.

So I stomped out of the tree, much of the same noise many of you might have heard upon my enterance to these halls. I gave notes to all the Treants and Thiflings but they gave me foolish, purposely cryptic answers which, when thought about, make no sense and were intended to do such!

I intend on personally informing Tunare of what I saw when I return home. And I would offer my sympathies to any within my company who believe or continue to believe that this being we saw was in fact Tunare. I do not mean to ruin your fantasys of seeing such a woman, I only wish you to know that someone seems to want to trick the mortals of Norrath, of whom I could not even begin to speculate. Have little fears or worries, all shall one day travel to my home, the home of Tunare, and have the opportunity to speak with herself personally... the real herself." 

*the note ends with a small face drawn next to the final word*

*You see that the letter is signed in a flourish of beautiful letters, that, after studing for a moment, can be read as 'Ayrielle'*

I was worried about you Lass. You seemed very upset at that point in the journey. I can't claim any knowledge of the gods really. I don't even really know much of my own patron Erollsi Marr, I must admit. So if you find something different you could share with others beyond what is accepted currently, let me know.

I don't know much about you but I do enjoy your company, so as I said before don't be a stranger.
