On the Shores

by Kalshana

We have just arrived in Khorvaire and it is such a strange place! Stranger than I had imagined but that can only be a good thing - the stranger it seems now, the easier to understand even the more stranger things that will pass. The faster I get used to the people, the culture, the smell of this place then the faster I can really help them and that can in turn create more good in the world.
 
Medalshana seems to be hesitant, but I am certain she will feel different once she sees the difference that we make to this place. I am still somewhat unsure on why she agreed to join us as she was far more inclined to be more...traditional in her Path of Light beliefs. Which isn't a bad thing! Meditation and training are good and I still intend to keep these as part of my core worship but light needs room to spread and there is no point in hiding your light under a bushel. Inspiring good in others, noble acts, all of these can spread as quickly as any illness. Tetkashati and Virikhad understands! They were happy to join with me - they know that this place is full of people in need, refugees, veterans, poor...
 
I saw a bird. I have never seen a bird like it - dark and think and striking. Most birds I have seen are eagles and hawks - predators and alone. This place has many of these things, all seem to be starving, poor things. I gave one that landed on the boat some food - it seemed to eat it quickly as if it hadn't had food in a long time. I wonder if these birds sing? Small birds sing and they can be as pretty as the hymns during services.
 
We also met Dah'mir - a lovely gentleman who offered to show us around. Even in a time such as this - in the face of a massive magical disaster - there is kindness! It lightens the mind to see it.
