Well, thank you for the compliments. And for the criticism, at that. I didn't quite expect to be a scribe, to be honest. Alessa actually wanted to be a cook! But there was a specific reason I wanted to be a Herald at that point in Alessa's life that involved scribing more than cooking; unfortunately, it never worked out as planned. As much as I love writing, it has always been a chore for me - it's either there, or it's not. For most of my time playing Alessa, it was not. Hopefully someday I'll get to scribe again, and make something of it.

I loved Matthen, for what it's worth, and when he interviewed me, I left feeling very good about things, the state of the Heralds included. With the rare exception here and there, I was proud to be a Herald. While the Heralds often get put down for being drunk, silly, repeat mudseXX0rs, there is so much potential there for the group to make some significant impact on the game as a whole. The Imms might make the game exciting, but it's the players who make the experience exciting, and for me, the Heralds are a HUGE part of that.

Anyway, thank you again, and I hope our paths will cross somewhere down the road.
