Being fearless, Terra didn't hesitate to open the letter,. Taking an easy, even tone, Terra began reading alloud the letter. The first paragraph drew curious its and concern across her face, but the second caused her voice to stutter to a crawl. "I'd best not read this alloud if it's supposed to be a secret."<br/><br/>Turning the letter over, so she couldn't read any more, she began to argue quietly with herself. "We aren't reading the rest until we both swear not to reveal the letters contents." Terra's voice was quiet with an unusual strictness. Though she didn't address anyone in the group but instead her own wrist- and the tattoo hiding beneath her armor. "<em>We</em>are going to make it a solemn oath as well- or Aleria can wear us both upon her skin for the next age! Or we're going home now." Terra shifted uncomfortably, but after a while she smiled and swore her oath_ though her voice echoed slightly, as if she wasn't the only one speaking. "I solemnly swear, upon all that I am, that I shall keep this letter a secret to all but those already present, including those in the flesh and those without, lest all that I am comes before Aleria for her judgement."<br/><br/>Then she read the letter quietly. It took a while, as the Paladin considered the contents.  When she looked up to offerthe letter to the group, Terra didn't smile at all. "If we take this quest, we each will be accepting a death sentence. But perhaps, if we succeed, we will not only save the world but earn enough favour for our judges to deliver us from death with a resurrection or reincarnation spell as reward for saving the world from what I can only imagine as the most frightening form of undeath to ever be called into existence." Such is the brave nature of a Paladin- the law is the law and whilst she will break it to save the world, she won't shy from the punishment to follow her action - be it death or losing all her powers.<br/><br/>Turning back to own arm, Terra looked rather sorrowful. "I don't think your mortal enough to earn that punishment, but I am sorry for any punishment you endure from this fate."
