Syranelle Ironleaf

I was surprised to see the lights on in Saraj Malqir's apartment this evening. So long has she been gone, I worried that, perhaps, someone had broken in. I went to investigate and found none other than the stoic Xaela there among her things as if nothing were amiss. We sat in her parlor and spoke for a time, mostly about how distant she felt from the Chroniclers. I gave her what advice I could, but, ultimately, I know the choice is hers whether she finds a foothold here or not. These are not the bygone days of the Harbingers with a group of individuals hundreds strong. We are smaller, more intimate, more effort must needs be made to make and find connection. But the best things in life are worth working toward, aren't they? That's what I like to think. Rather than permit Saraj to continue to wallow in her regrets, I decided I'd take her over to the Fool's Renaissance company house. I'd overheard them gathering via the linkpearl given me by Neheon Wolfsbane, so I thought it would do Saraj good to be among familiar faces and friends of old. I said nothing of where we were going, letting the surprise of it be my Starlight gift to my erstwhile Xaela friend. We sipped Neheon's peppermint cocoa and visited with the many Rennies that came through: Doctor Ozerov, Rosa Lindelle, Serris Le'omend, and Lias Ahrgo among a few others with whom I was not as familiar. For her own part, Saraj seemed genuinely happy among them and I was glad to see her so cheered after seeing her so morose. Starlight should not be spent in regrets, but instead reveling among those closest to us. I'm glad I was able to do that for her, Gods only know what she's been through these past moons. I may never know, but at least she knows that the hearth lights will always be here to welcome her home. I was surprised, though, at the Rennie's festivities when I was given a gift by their Saint's Little Helper. They had no idea that we were going to be in attendance, so the gift was unexpected to say the least. It was a set of jewelry, necklace and earrings, fashioned from silver and emerald. Green, my favorite color -- although, my true preference is for Nophica Green, but let's not cast shade upon such a thoughtful gift. We ate, we drank, and we made merry among friends -- which is everything a Starlight Eve should be. I returned home afterward to bask in the warmth of my apartment and the beloved company of Irridias Velnyx. Yes, this was everything Starlight should be.

Botany has always been a diversion for me, the moments I can spend in contemplation about the things that worry me or those things that matter most. It has rarely been about the plants, I simply gather whatever is at hand and eventually incorporate them into the myriad teas I've concocted. Tonight, though, I took myself out to Thanalan on a mission for some fresh Coerthan Carrots to implement in a new carrot cake recipe. Imagine my surprise then to hear unexpected music in the ravine where I conducted my foray. When I finally found the source of the sound, it was a young miqo' te lass and her chocobo. I apparently caught her deep in composition for she sent her sheet music flying when I spoke. It seemed an out of the way sort of place to come to, but we all have our favorite places to go when we want to be alone with our thoughts. I almost considered leaving her then, so remorseful was I about disturbing her tranquility. Yet, there was something in her words and demeanor that compelled me to stay. She was composing a ballad for the one she loved, as a gift for Starlight as well a betrothal gift, but she struggled to find the words. I gave her what advice I could, but the gist of it was to simply say what was genuinely in her heart. Words of love don't have to be fanciful and poetic to have meaning or to touch the heart of the one we love. They simply need to be sincere. This advice seemed to cheer her and we discussed a few ideas on where she could start. She introduced herself as D'emi Rhojah even as I gave my own name to her. Shortly after, we parted ways. I don't know that I'll ever cross paths with her again, but it is my sincere hope that she and her beau find a life of happiness together. With my mission complete and an errant soul, hopefully, helped I returned home to my own fiancee.

[align=center][/align] It's been a long time since I've written. I don't know if this means that my life has become too busy or if the events in it have become less noteworthy. Likely the former; history, such as it is, has always been an important part of what I do. Documenting my life, its journey, and all the waypoints in between have always held value to me. If not for me, then for those who come after me. No matter how busy I become, I should remember that and make a better effort. Nearest and dearest to my heart is my upcoming Bonding with my beloved, Irridias Velnyx, a matter that all who know us say is long overdue. It's hard to believe that it's been a cycle since he proposed and almost a cycle and a half since we met. Yet, it seems as if he has always been part of my life, so much so that I can no longer imagine it without him. The requisite visitations to the shrines of the Twelve by the Sanctum allowed us to view our relationship and our love through all the different facets of faith. Every visitation brought up only the best memories of everything about the "us" we've become. Our sorrows, our pain, are quickly becoming but distant memory, as they should be. While our day of Bonding will be the happiest moment yet, I don't want it to be the pinnacle of our life together, but a foundation we can build upon toward even better ones. Most of the selections and planning have been made, we only need to finish our business with the Sanctum of the Twelve to be able to assign a date. It will likely wait until after the beginning of the new cycle, since I know Doctor Ozerov and Neheon Wolfsbane will be bonding around then. I would do nothing to steal their thunder, so ours will come after theirs. Beyond that, my work with the Chroniclers continues as I juggle between the various missions and inqueries that come to us. Matters surrounding Ellisorielle Black have gotten no better, only more convoluted. Zhan'a Rakhin plays that situation close to the vest, so it's hard to even know what's happening with all of it, much less how best I can help. Nevertheless, I continue to be involved, willingly or not. I was taken aside and questioned by men claiming to be Wood Wailers, but I've dealt with and dodged enough of them to know that these men were anything but. The man, Simonds, was one that Elli had mentioned to me before, the one who kept close watch on her at the ranch she was working at before she came to us in Revenant's Toll. He and his companion, a man called Ordo, questioned me at length about Ellisorielle, but I feigned large ignorance. They claim that Zhan'a kidnapped Elli against her will and that he is the perpetrator of many crimes in the Black Shroud, particularly against women. Knowing Zhan'a as I do, I would never believe him capable of the things they've claimed. I refused to give up Zhan'a's whereabouts, telling the men I'd not seen him since we left the Harbingers. It was a small lie, I do so rarely see Zhan'a, but it isn't as if these two were legitimate officers of the law, so I don't feel particularly guilty about it. They released me a day later, but hopefully Ree was able to glean something further as he kept an eye on things from afar. It's one thing we do well, my beloved and I, working together to bring the evils of the world to justice. Perhaps with these new developments, we can finally figure out a way to bring this situation to a close for Ellisorielle. Speaking of trying to close matters, Alexander Steelstrike continues to try and close the book on the matter of his past. I don't know why it's so important to him -- but then, he rarely speaks to anyone besides Zhan'a. Even after as long as I've known him, he never quite seems relaxed with me, as if I'm judging every word that comes from him. Or that he doesn't altogether trust me with aspects of his life. Yet, no matter how unwilling he is to talk to me, I still find myself trying to help him find resolution for -- whatever it is that seems to plague him. We went recently into Xelphatol, back to the village he grew up(?) in. We found little to nothing in terms of Alex's search for his past, only a couple of abandoned children whose family and village were taken captive by Garleans. There was nothing for it at that point, though, the safety of the children were paramount. Alex seemed frustrated and upset that we were calling things off; he wanted to continue his search. I confess, I found his desperation disappointing when he was all but willing to overlook the safety of the children to keep looking. Ree and I took charge of the children, leaving Alex and Zhan'a to search for whatever Alex seemed determined to find. Ree and I saw the children safely back to Revenant's Toll and I used some funds from the Company coffer to see to it that they were cared for by one of the barmaids in the tavern. It was a temporary solution, but given the situation with Ellisorielle, the city-state orphanages, and that cultist of the Mother -- I dared not entrust them to an orphanage. Not yet. Not until we were sure that situation was resolved -- if we ever manage to resolve it. One more thing added on to another. Speaking of Garleans and their activity, though, we were contracted by a merchant working for the House of Splendors to look into a missing shipment. I think we've run all of our leads to ground and will be taking our investigations to Idyllshire, particularly to Hismena or another representative of the House of Splendors that can answer our questions. From everything I've heard about these Augmented Scintillant Ingots, they could mean trouble in the wrong hands. I can only hope that we're able to track down and recover the shipment before it gets put to ill purpose. I think, though, this is everything for now. Or at least all the important bits. I'll honestly try to do better in future, even the smallest things have meaning when you look back on them through the lens of time.

Hey there and welcome to Balmung! The best place to start is with the Balmung RP Calendar and finding a few events that angle toward the kind of RP you're interested in. Then you can start looking at other character profiles once you've found a few characters or personalities you'd like to meet. While you're window shopping, be sure to check out the Free Company Hall or the Linkshell Hall to find Free Companies and public groups that may suit your character. For lore questions, be sure to check out Sounsyy's Lore Compilations; she's done an amazing job with compiling a lot of the game lore into easy-to-find threads! You're welcome to add me to your friends list; I'm a fairly busy person, both in-game and out, but I'm always happy to schedule/arrange a day to roleplay with folks! You're also welcome to come out to my Free Company's open roleplay evening Nights on the Toll, which happens every Thursday that I'm not hosting the Gridania Story-Go-Round. All that said, I hope you find what you're looking for and hopefully I'll see you around in-game!

[align=center]A Shocking Starlight Plot[/align] [19:18]Karaan Nolan: "I will start direct in the story, a story from the first ever hero this lovely event had." He stops and grins, changing his voice. "This one is right, the celebration was stolen!" Mogshu had heard a lot from his time, but the sylph speech was always the funniest one, for him. He rolls his Pomcigar in his small hand and eats another kupo nuts while glancing in his small office, unsure of this two new clients. The Sylp were nervous, speaking about someone stoling their Father, it seems -c- [19:20]Karaan Nolan: every night, near the Starlight Celebration, Ramuh, roams around the Sylphland, to give gift to the good Sylph and coal to the Naughty One. But someone or something has stolen, Ramuh's most precious thing, not his staff...but it almight beard. The Moggle chuckles and scribbles on his pad while the Slyph nods." It must be them..they are jealous of The Mighty One because this one doesn't receive gift from...." [19:27]Rheya Tayuun: The Pomvestigator chewed on the end of his pencil for a few moments, and then nodded at the Sylph who was hovering over his tree-stump desk. "Okay, kupo! The Levinfather can't deliver his presents if he doesn't have that beard. Nobody would recognize him! Pomvestigator Mogshu is on the case, kupo! Do you have any idea how the culprit managed to get it off of his face without, you know, getting punted into next week, Kupo?" <1/2> [19:29]Rheya Tayuun: The sylph shook it's head helplessly and shrugged at that. "Flying one does not know! Strange Walking Ones were seen in the forest, though. Tall, and red as hollyberry! Or Kupo One's pom!" Mogshu preened a bit at that, because his pom was (in his humble opinion), one of his better features. He took down a few more notes, and then nodded at the pair of sylphs. <2/2> [19:32]Syranelle Ironleaf: Excited to take on his second-ever-case, Pomvestigator Mogshu did a happy little Moogle Dance. "We'll just have to be a good pomvestigator and look into what happened ourself, kupo!" True to his word, Mogshu danced his way out of his office and went to the East Shroud to begin his investigation. He arrived first at the Hawthorne Hut, the center of all activity and life around Nine Ivies. >> [19:34]Syranelle Ironleaf: The first person he questioned was one of the local Wood Wailers. "Good evening, kupo! Praytell, have you seen or heard anything about Ramuh and his missing beard?" The elezen looked at Mogshu in disbelief before he started laughing right in the poor moogle's face. "What? Don't be absurd. No one goes near a Primal, that's foolishness!" Undaunted, Moghsu went to the local Chocobokeep and asked the same question. Startlingly, he got the same kind of reaction. What was wrong? [19:41]Kada'to Jakkya: One person laughing at poor Mogshu, he could handle. His pom was made of sterner stuff! But then the Chocobokeep? It was almost as if these people were afraid of Ramuh! Mogshu shook his head, perish the thought! The Levinfather was good to all moogles, so why would these good people be afraid of him? Surely, he would find someone in Hawthorne who could help him on his case. And so Mogshu continued his questioning, heading towards an open tent, where a smiling hyur waved him over. >> [19:48]Kada'to Jakkya: “Evening, kupo!” Mogshu began, “Do you know-“ But before he could finish, the woman giggled and rushed over to him, pulling the moogle into a tight hug. “Oh goodness, you’re even more adorable up close!” Mogshu struggled valiantly to free himself, but her grip was tighter than iron. “And you’re so fluffy~” She cooed, already beginning to scratch him on the head. Mogshu wiggled this way and that, until finally he was free! “I wasn’t finished talking, kupo!” (2/2) [19:52]Karaan Nolan: Mogshu narrows his eyes on the hyur."I want to know if you know anything about the stealing of the beard, kupo!" The woman giggled and nod at him." Yes..but what I gain, oh lovely fluffly lord." The Pominvestigator wasn't a fool, he knew how dangerous some of those strange race were."I let you play with the Pom, kupo" He points at the almighty pom over his head, while the woman chuckles and nods happily." It seems that the Sylph aren't the only one with problem with their Primal." She stops -c- [19:54]Karaan Nolan: and leans closer to him. "I heard two Ixal speaking, about the lost of the Lady of the Vortex feather...someone is stealing the precious Primal power...for itself, oh lovely fuffly Moggle." The Pominvestigator frowns and listens, taking note. "oh, interesting kupo!" She points at herself." I know where you could see them...there is a secret place named the PrimalMart where Primal meets and talks...I can show you.." Mogshu blinks."The Primalmart...what is that, kupo.." [19:58]Rheya Tayuun: The Pomvestigator was curious, because he hadn't ever heard of something like this, but... It was a lead. And leads were meant to be followed! So he let the woman who had beckoned him over carry him along into the deep ways of the Shroud, and repaid her kindness by letting her nuzzle his pom to her heart's content while they traveled. Eventually, they came to a deep cave, black and forboding. The strange woman let the Pomvestigator go, and pointed into it's inky depths. <1/2> [20:01]Rheya Tayuun: "This is the way into the PrimalMart. I was gathering berries near here once and saw Ramuh go in, followed by Garuda. The caves stretch for malms and malms, so be careful. Follow the right hand wall, until you see the stalactites that glow a bright red. At them, take a left." The Pomvestigator nodded firmly, and set off with a will. Even if his quaking wings did threaten to make him walk a time or three! Dark caves are guaranteed to have spooky things in them, and he didn't look forwards to it! [20:04]Syranelle Ironleaf: In to the onyxian gloom of the caves did our brave Pomvestigator make his way. As Mogshu found the glowing red stalactites, he turned left as instructed. What he found there was nothing short of astonishing. Twin glass doors slid open with a cheerful chime and an automated voice, "Welcome to Primalmart! Prime all of your life!" He grimaced, that was such a terrible slogan. Moving past the doors, he saw that the dank, spooky caves gave way to a well-lit, series of small shops! >> [20:06]Syranelle Ironleaf: Not only that, but there was Ifrit who seemed to be getting his Nails done at a salon-like booth. The woman doing his nails chattered incessantly, filing and polishing them to a fiery shine. At another stall, Mogshu saw Shiva trying some new icicles in her hair. This really /was/ a store just for Primals. They had to get all that stuff from somewhere, he supposed. Maybe this was where Ramuh got his beard! He began to browse the aisles in search of them. [20:10]Karaan Nolan: Mogshu tries not to bring any attention toward him while he flies around the different aisles, looking for clues or anything that may tell him who could have stole Ramuh's Beard or Garuda's Feather. He stops at a small shop, where a tall creature was looking at what is looking like a pet shop, but with butterfly in it. The tall creature frowns." I need them to carry my sword ...big and strong.." Mogshu's little attention turns toward a crashing sound. Two massive form were throw out of -c- [20:12]Karaan Nolan: the bar section. A tall clad wearing armor glances at the drunk Primal, bickering about their people, Titan and Leviathan. "Don't come back before..." Odin stops and sighs." Sorry..guys, shop close, need to go scare some adventurer in the Shroud." He closes the door of his tavern and walks away. Mogshu stays silent when he saws the Most Kind and Powerful of the Primal flying near him. The Pomvestigator bows his head when the Great King Mog stops near his small follower. "Moghsu? " [20:16]Rheya Tayuun: Mogshu bows deeply to the Lord of the Levins, and nods. "Yes, o Great and Powerful Ramuh! Lord of the Lightning! Please don't smite me for trespassing on this hallowed ground, but I was hired to find your missing beard!" That earns a moment of silence, before the Primal burst out into ear-splitting gales of laughter. Pomvestigator Mogshu cowered for a moment before realizing it was mirth and not wrath, and slowly started to chuckle along with the Primal. <1/2> [20:21]Syranelle Ironleaf: Mogshu stared for a long moment... before he shuddered. Envisioning Ramuh in the shower was NOT something he'd needed to do today. "Well, it's good that you found a replacement, kupo!" Mogshu said cheerfully, "But it doesn't do that you've still one missing. If you'll permit me, I'll do my best to find it and see it safely returned!" Ramuh shrugged. "Tis not something you should worry your little pom over, I've alread--" But Mogshu interrupted. "No-no-no!" >> [20:23]Syranelle Ironleaf: "I was tasked with finding your beard and find it I shall!" The little moogle exclaimed before running out of Primalmart, right past drunken Titan and Leviathan, the rock giant awkwardly patting the serpent's back as it retched into a trash can. "Moogle Mog's Kingly Whiskers, this day is so /odd/..." To the Sevenfang Falls Mogshu went, though, and there he found... [20:27]Karaan Nolan: The Pomvestigator roams around the Sevenfang Falls for an hour, before resting his little wing near the fall. He sighs and ponders a bit." No sign of any beard, nor feather, kupo!" He takes one of the kupo nuts and eats it."Well..well..who will acquire something from stealing a beard from Ramuh, kupo!" He says when he hears a sound coming from behidn the fall. Something or someone was lurking behind the water. He uses his Moogle power and silently fly toward the fall, wondering -c- [20:27]Karaan Nolan: The Pomvestigator roams around the Sevenfang Falls for an hour, before resting his little wing near the fall. He sighs and ponders a bit." No sign of any beard, nor feather, kupo!" He takes one of the kupo nuts and eats it."Well..well..who will acquire something from stealing a beard from Ramuh, kupo!" He says when he hears a sound coming from behidn the fall. Something or someone was lurking behind the water. He uses his Moogle power and silently fly toward the fall, wondering -c- [20:30]Karaan Nolan: When he arrives at the fall, the voice was more clear, someone was preparing a plan, to ruin the Starlight Celebration of everyone, not just Sylph or Ixal, but even the others. Mogshu knew that only one evil creature could do that. He flies throught the water and screams. "Stop! Pomwitches of the West..I, Moghsu, the Pomvestigator Extraordinaire will stop you!" The Pomwitches turns her eyes toward her nemesis and chuckles. "You are too late..I finish..my creation is ready.." Moghsu shivers and.. [20:36]Rheya Tayuun: The Pomvestigator stared in horror at the creation hovering before him. It was a robe of black and purple, much like the Lord of Levin's own. Although... It looked like it had been sewn together from hundreds of scraps of colored cloth. That wouldn't be so bad, but it was being held up by the coven of the Pomwitches. And the Wicked Pomwitch of the West was wearing the missing beard! She could barely be seen among it's hairy depths. <1/2> [20:41]Syranelle Ironleaf: What was he to do? Mogshu tapped his tiny paws together, considering his options. "You'll never get away with this, Pomwitches!" The trio of moogle mages danced in a circle, the bearded one dragging Ramuh's beautiful beard in the dirt and grass. Wait, that was it! Ramuh's beard carried a latent electrical charge from the Lord of Levin, if he could just get them to give their bearded leader a shock... Mogshu nodded, his course of action decided. [20:43]Syranelle Ironleaf: "I challenge you to game of wits!" He proclaimed, pointing at one of the smaller Pomwitches. "And it will decide whether I let you go or not!" The Littlest Pomwitch cackled. "You're no match for me, Mogshu, what is your challenge?" Mogshu replied, "I bet you can't do as I do!" He rubbed his furry belly with one hand and pat his head with the other. The Pomwitch only scoffed and imitated him, building up the static charge on her paws. Now to get her to touch the bearded one... [20:48]Karaan Nolan: Mogshu hid a grin behind his paw." Oh this is the first step of my challenge, kupo!" He says while he looks at all the Wicked Pomwitches of the West." I am sure you can't dance better than me, kupo, I can dance..and fly better than all of you!" He glances." And I can do it, while doing the first challenge." The Littlest Pomwitch cackled and followed the challenge, dancing and moving closer to the creation."And I am sure you, you can't rub your Pom on her as fast as I can do, kupo!" [20:51]Karaan Nolan: The Littlest Pomwitch chuckles and rubs her furry belly while leaning near her leader, wearing the Mighty One beard. "I can and I will! You have fail Pomvestigator, you will be in ruin and you will be ours!" She cackled and touches the beard with her pom, the moment the two touches, it feels like a storm in the small cavern, electricity spread in the air and travels from the poor little Pomwitches toward the beard. The Pomvestigator hides itself behind a rock and closes his eyes, waiting for… [20:55]Rheya Tayuun: ...the Eorzea-shattering KABOOM of thunder as the static in the Littlest Pomwitches' fur discharges into the beard, and from there LASHES out in a bolt of Ramuh's mighty Lightning! It arcs across the room and slashes into the waterfall, making it glow all kinds of pretty colors and bursts of steam! At the same time, the robe's stray threads caught fire and went up in a WHOOOSH! The Pomwitches were stunned for a few moments, looking owlishly at the Pomvestigator with soot-blackened faces. <1/2> [20:58]Rheya Tayuun: "Curse you, Pomvestigator! A thousand curses! We were SO CLOSE!" The Wicked Pomwitch of the West shrieked at him. The great mass of Ramuh's Spare Beard was unsinged, but the lightning had made it stand out all spiky, and the Pomwitch looked like one of those puff-plants people ride! If they had a Pom with a flaming witches' hat on it, that is... [21:01]Syranelle Ironleaf: Mogshu collected the puffed-out beard and returned with it to his office. There, he presented it proudly to the Sylph. "Here you are, friend! One Ramuh Beard, recovered as promised!" The Sylph did a little dance of joy. "Kupo One is very good to Flying One, brings back Great One's beard!" The sylph takes it gratefully, hugging it close. "Now Flying One and Friends can decorate it to give to Ramuh for Starlight! Kupo One has made this one's holiday all the brighter!" >> [21:02]Syranelle Ironleaf: And so it was that Starlight was saved and the Pomwitches plans foiled. What good cheer and merriment would the Sylph's gift to Ramuh bring? That remains to be seen. However, all could rest well knowing that the holiday would proceed uninterrupted with gifts for all the good little boys and girls... all thanks to one Special Pomvestigator Mogshu!
