For those of you aware of the saga or Rose, the Shallamese orphan that
Flair and I adopted, this may come as a shock to you, but after long
negotiations with Tanaar I believe an end to tensions is near. If I am
granted the promised clemency, Rose shall once again be able to visit
her Shallamese friends once she passes her Trial of Fire. It is with a
sincere heart that I welcome an end to such hostilities.

Furthermore, many Shallamese have spoken to me about this conflict. To
those of you I give thanks. Your words have encouraged me to seek this
peace wherein the Rose may once again bloom among her homeland gardens.
I promised someone long ago that I would post a retraction of sorts: You
are not all of the shades of pallor that I once painted the entire city.
Many of you, I know call friend.

As an Occultist, I know that Chaos is inclusive and regardless of our
histories it is possible for everyone to be appreciated within my gaze.
I hope that Shallam will hold to our arrangment and pardon the
questionable crimes of that eve so long ago so that I may do so. I look
forward to a cessation of this saga of pain and family heartache.
