This will seem like a small thing, but it was huge to Tomias. Early on when I was still figuring out fort and Maran you helped push me through to my final form - I found myself leading in maethien, which I don’t know very well, and repeatedly, very tactfully you redirected me via tells and still had me figure the tricks of the area out and learn.

It was night and day to my last fort experience ages ago, not to mention even ranking there with Atrissa, who wrote a poem about forts being impatient mean hypocrites because of one experience there (of course in her case she maybe deserved it but that’s ok).

Thormmstein was very paladinny - strong but emanating virtuous qualities, and our few but memorable interactions helped me lower my guard around other fort heroes and try to be my full character.
