Hey Sapience, hello again! I hope you didn't miss me much!

You may or may not know this but, in my attempts to eradicate the Ashen Scale (also known as the Xorani illness) I've been donating burdock roots almost every year across Sapience, since the year 936 AF. I've been doing this for almost twenty years with no ending in sight.

You can read more about this illness and what it does in the public News Posts #21768 and #21776. You can also reach out to your friends and mentors for more information.

So, here it is, the donation of the year 953 AF! If you need burdock roots, please feel free to go to the following places, asking the people below, or contacting me!

Ashtan: The Seat of Chaos has requested to not donate more burdock roots to them for the time being.
Cyrene: Mailed to Senator Tilia Malicieux, Preeminent Prestidigitator.
Jaru Village: Within a renovated chapel
Eleusis: The village of Eleusis has requested to not receive burdock roots, since they harvest plenty.
Hashan: Mailed to Sorcerer Erikarn Longshanks, Spark of the Crucible.
Mhaldor: Mailed to Sir Antoninus Nithilar, Tyrannus of Mhaldor. (Congratulations on becoming the Tyrannus, by the way!)
Targossas: Mailed to Caefir Aroan Shire, Judicator of the Hearth.

A large batch of burdock roots will be delivered to the Isle of Prin soon.

Are you working on an alternative cure to the illness? Do you have more information about the illness or the roots themselves? Please let me know! I'd love to hear all about it and even sponsor you. Though, be warned, my funds aren't exactly what they used to be!

Do you have a bunch of burdock roots just lying around, and want to get rid of them? Donate them! Or send them to me, so I can deal with it for you. And, lastly, are you working on an alternative cure to the illness? Do you have more information about the illness or the roots themselves? Please let me know! I'd love to hear all about it and even sponsor you. Though, be warned, my funds aren't exactly what they used to be!

Now, this is where I'd usually end my post, but I want to take the chance to thank everyone, again, who was reached out to me to check on me, to hear my side of the story or simply chat with me over tea.

A friend recently asked me for help with something. Long story short, it culminated in me writing a scroll in a frenzy about my side of the story; my thoughts, feelings and some of the things I went through. I named it "Thiesekh: His brief story, from a traitor's view", made a few copies and then mailed them to some people, some of them friends.

The scroll is, obviously, a pretty condensed version. It has a couple errors I didn't notice until after I mailed it, and it requires a revision. I might even change the title a little. But, if anyone out there is interested in reading it, please let me know. I'll personally hand you a copy or mail it to you.

A burdock a year keeps the illness away!
