Role

Chapter 5

Wexlan, the half-drow shapeshifter, seeks to be a Squire. With an alligator
and boulder hawk, Unalethekai knows he'd be a potent weapon of the Light.

But the shifter's rise in his guild was rapid, and both Goganop and Una were
worried that he was a man who would grow impatient as a Squire, with nothing
but the hunt to drive him.

So, with the words of Neltouda echoing in his head, and bearing in mind the
duties of the Acolytes, Unalethekai came up with a plan. He would be sure
that all the new Squires and Scribes had something to take joy in besides the
War, before he would give them a recommendation.

Una recognizes the importance of being able to step away from the blood and
violence from time to time to appreciate the gifts of the Light, whether they
be companionship, listening to or playing music, art of any kind, tale
telling, appreciating fine ale or wine, or evencherishing the warm embrace
of a woman.

By stressing this in his interviews, he'll ensure that the Squires and
Scribes are well rounded, their spirits tempered, and less likely to become
distraught and depressed in the face of adversity. Una can't think of a
better way to safeguard their spirits preemptively, and it will also make
life in the Fortress more interesting and entertaining for all involved.

No one will lose sight of why they fight as long as Unalethekai Trah'Vella
roams the Grey Halls.
