"Continuing with more inspiration, Lady Ameline, please step forward and share your words with us.
Ameline Valtin dips her head lightly to present company, "Such marvelous tales by Ladies Ciel and Jancis. I have but a humble bit of prose to offer, should you lend me your ears." She smiled.
Ever have I thought mine self a simple thing.
Oft to gaze on things that may -
-Seem vapid to those of learned means.

Oft to quip mine self as daft;
Slow to speak yet nary meek -
Retorts of wit met with scorn and laugh.

But once a wise one spoke unto me:
'To hear but words is for the birds;
'Discerning intent is what you seek.'Â

And as we gather here to praise the Wise;
I know wisdom transcends the simple 'what' and 'why'!
Ameline bows politely, "Thank you, kind souls of Eorzea! Wisdom be with you!"
V'aleera grins and claps enthusiastically, watching the woman with a gaze laden with admiration and curiosity.
"Thank you as always, Lady Ameline."
