Zan enters Ojaveda's gates and stands still in the middle of the road, taking a long look around ... not much later a fierce looking Enkidukai approaches him. The Nolthrir recognizes his old friend immediately and smiles widely as he approaches him.
"Hello Jekkar. Back again after so long, after so much has happened. It seems though this place hasn't changed much at all."
Zan and Jekkar head over to the Broken Door together and spend the entire afternoon talking about everything that has happened. After hours, the traveller finally heads to his home, to the Utlics of Ojaveda, where the Community of Vaalnor resided for so long. While he walks through the dark alleys of Dsar Akkaio, Zan ponders his life and his future with a distinct frown on his face. He finally arrives at his old home, raises the palm of his right hand in the air while whispering a chant to make a small flame appear just above it. With a casual wave Zan propels the flame straight into the firepit in the middle of his utlic, igniting it and spreading a warm glow across his tent.
"Maybe a lot has changed after all ..."
Zan sits down on some pillows and pulls a piece of parchment out of his backpack, then he starts to write his speech for Hydlaa Plaza.
Inhabitants of Yliakum, long have I roamed across the wilderness, travelled to cities and witnessed the wonders of man, god and nature. Today I return to my position as Vaalnor Council member, to my community and to you all with words of change echoing on the winds.
Vaalnor has been neglected ... until now! We, in the council, have decided to revive old ideals and resurrect a community considered deceased by many. This is why I stand before you all today with the word of a new Vaalnor. Our old ways still stand strong, we are still a community, an unity of people, above all and we still believe in helping eachother out. Teamwork and contributing to the grander whole are the way towards a grander and more pleasant life. Together we can stand much stronger and achieve a lot more than divided.
The Council of Vaalnor watches over those who seek a home with us, those who do not wish to be bossed around but wish to belong to a community of likeminded individuals are always welcome. With us individuality is encouraged, diversity can add to the whole but nothing is more important than the state of the community. By being selfless in your actions and aiding others when they need it, we in Vaalnor believe that you will recieve everything you could need in return. Now more than ever our community is open to those who are attracted to our ways. We need many craftsmen, merchants, artisans, scholars and guardsmen to replenish our ranks and build on Vaalnor. No matter what profession or skill you have .. there is room for you among us.
We have been sleeping for a long time but today the magnificent creature that is Vaalnor awakens from it's sleep and roams the world once more!
Zan reads over his writings one last time and smiles. He puts the paper on one of his drawers and walks over to the fire to poke it up before he gazes into the flames.
"Everything that has been done .. can be undone."
(With this I want to revive the Community of Vaalnor, we have been inactive for quite some time but with the return of a few key members it might be time to allow CoV to grow again. I hope Induane will forgive me for this initiative but I'm sure he won't mind and hope I can talk to him soon.
