TO: Chief-Justiciar Qinta Quatróna

Living Blood of Fire, you know I write you this at great peril, because it is you who imperils me. But whatever my ambition—and whatever your animus towards me for it—know I hold one thing in greater esteem in myself: Our nation. And I have seen with my eyes a more dire threat to our home than any plague, any animated corpse, any beast.

I saw it that night, in the museum, but denied it for a full day. My report on the events there list only an anomaly brought on by the magic of the fraudulent archeologist. But whatever this is, it's the opposite of an illusion. It's somehow more real than what's around us. Not less.

Please, Qinta, put aside your ceaseless fear that I'm envious of your position. Our feud was childish, and the continent is no place for kids games. Trust me here, for once. I've attached my notes on Watchword "Bright One." Read them, study them, but know they are incomplete. With this one, notes will always be incomplete.

Loyal Always to Ordenna's Shores, Iduna Fel Justiciar-Captain
