<strong><em>Week Eight</em></strong><br/><br/>The quiet of the past weeks seems to indeed be gone. The presence of the Aspirants from both the Slums and the Manor District now stirs up the Guild District. Mother Freya has come to preach the way of Aros, and Shanira Treyan has been granted the good will earned by the departed Valerian. Both now are starting to have something of a say of what goes on around here!<br/><br/>Vorla seems, if anything, relieved by these developments. It appears the dwarf will welcome either Mother Freya or Shanira Treyan gaining the necessary sway to take control here. The other important figures aren't shy about making their opinions known either. Selem Shal is eager to see the Church of Aros spread and optimistic about its future. Bianca Jones notes a slight preference for the ways of Shanira. Jacques meanwhile seems disheartened at the idea of either taking control here.<br/><br/>Still, there is work to be done, and that giant turtle is far away. If discussion and debate is the worst the guild see, they will count their lucky stars. They pray it stays so calm.
