Questionnaire

What is the name of your rainbow gryphon? I never get the chance to see,
because the creature moves so fast.
-Hierophant Arien Siar'luin, Chalice of Winter

Mrs. Siar’luin,

My gryphon is named Avaraii, and she has an interesting story behind her. Before I was born to Serenwilde, she belonged to Llewell. I was just a youth, knowing little about the world and its ways, and I brought a Pegasus into the Wilde. Quickly, I learned that they were banned, and I was saddened, so Llewell, my guildmaster at the time, handed over the reins of a fierce, shadowy gryphon to soften the blow. He was a beautiful, powerful beast with wings of flickering vermillion, but he’d never felt quite attuned to his looks. We set out, after a time, with several potions and artifacts, and finally found his, or now her, true form.

Who is the prettiest in the Serenwilde? What is your favourite food?
-Anonymous

Dear Anonymous,
The prettiest in Serenwilde is the lovely Ethereal Maiden Lisaera, of course.
For your second question, my favorite food is simple sugar crystals. I blame Gabriella for feeding them to me when I was just a little Serenwilder.

What are your inspirations? What has been your most remarkable moment to
date? What is something you wish more people knew about you but don't?
-Noyarqa Vhula Rual'roth, Kotul en-Kui

Dear Mr. Rual’roth,
My inspirations. Such a deep question. I have to say, my dreams have been my inspiration, as I had very vivid dreams about my future since I was a child. Quickly, these dreams set into reality, one by one, and even my name was told to me by fae in my dreams. I never once doubted them, so crisp and clear, and someday I will ascend, as I’ve forseen, ne’er to return. I suspect that day is long from now, however, as there is much to unfold before then.
My most remarkable moment to date was the day that Avurekhos told me he loved me. I know, what a whimsical, girlish thing to hold higher than all, but for someone to give you their love is the most treasured aspect of any world.
Your third question took some time for me to decide. Something that I wish more people knew about me is I began just like every little one. In my youth I stumbled, questioned, and got lost. I died to funny things, and have accidentally sacrificed myself at least three times (twice as Seneschal). I learn more every day, as the world is vast and complex, and I am unsure about things at times. But remember this, get out there, ask questions, do not ever worry about looking dumb, or feeling less than because you did not know something. We all ask someone questions. We must try, or we cannot grow. And lastly, each of you carry my heart, and by you, it is lifted high into the frosted boughs of the Winter Woods.

--------
A question for the Seneschal, which of the four cities does she think is
the closest to being a true ally of Nature?
-Princess Dakhamunsu of Ankhemet Hive
------

Princess Dakhamunsu,
I do not believe any city is close to being a –true- ally to Nature. The cities we are allied with, Celest and Hallifax, are both very far removed from the essence of Nature. However, if I –had- to choose one, it would be Celest. The people of Celest appreciate the forest, they would walk with us in the march to cleanse the First World of the Taint of the Soulless, and they would preserve the natural as best they could. In the end, though, the cities cannot be trusted in their cement roads and stifled cultures, and even though we greatly revere our friendship with Celest, when ends come to ends, we stand as two.

I thank you all for your questions, I rather enjoyed answering them for you, and I hope I answered them well.

Truly,

Wilde Seneschal Niina Yfae’dren
