The Song of the Morning Temple RP Thread

[Xorena]

Kiera slips into the temple as two unknown visitors speak to the Most Radiant Kelddath Ormlyr. After they leave, the young paladin approaches the priest, her questions near whispered in the reverent space. The patient priest indulges her, a curious gleam in her eyes and a slight smile on her lips as she listens to his response. Kiera is later seen in the library reserved for the clergy and templars, poring over contracts recently signed.

A few evenings past, A blonde man and a daughter knight of the temple might have been spotted entering the bright sanctuary in search of the Most Radiant. Their visit with him was not lengthy, but chatter within the Song of the Morning among the clergy following their exit would be spiced with awe and wonder; with murmur of vibrant gifts of the Morninglord's favor and divine messages granted.

In the early hours of the 19th Ches, on this dawning day of the Spring Equinox, one of the local priests known as Harrison Remillard would be seen to welcome the faithful, any and all that would make their way to the Temple, standing outside, vigilant and looking Eastward. He would usher the gathered inside to find a seat and bask in the Song as sung by his more vocally talented brethren. For it is that time again when the Song of the Dawn is sung to welcome in the changing of the season.

A new face was seen at the temple as a man in red gilded armour with inhuman amber eyes and a face marred by scars knelt before the altar of Lathander and offered his aid to any attending priesthood; introducing himself as Auros Bhalyn, a former mercenary from Cormyr and claiming to be a recent convert to the faith with a desire to join the church of Lathander's military arm to learn more of the faith whilst aiding in any offensive against the growing influence of undeath on the Sword Coast.

Dear brother and sisters,

It has been four years since I last set foot on this temple. While I indeed hope my message brings you good tidings, I am afraid that what I had witnessed on my way here brings only ill omen.

Earlier today on the Coast Way between Beregost and Nashkel, I encountered Myrkulite necromancers. Some of the adventurers and members of the Order of the Radiant Heart in the vicinity were hunting and eventually detained two of the three necromancers, who built an altar and summoned undead according to the hunting party. The three necromancers consisted of a dwarf clad in dark and scary armor, a male human named Balkoth and wears a black cloak with Myrkul's symbol, and a male human named Loren Bass, who wears a red robe and a reddish helmet. The hunting party detained the two men and the dwarf escaped through teleportation. But unfortunately, before the two detainees can be brought to the town of Beregost, they escaped.

Since such vile acts happened nearby Beregost, I offered to bring such dire news to my fellow brothers and sisters here to the hunting party. A member of the Radiant Heart in the hunting party will also report this encounter to his higher-ups. I urge that the Lathanderite church offers whatever aid possible to root out necromancy, a crime that only invokes ire from the Morninglord. I will also provide all I have to the Lathanderite church in this matter.

In the light of the Dawn,
Gyren Edwood
A pilgrim and paladin-in-training of the Morninglord

At the same time, he also gives the Most Radiant a more personal letter, addressing to fellow brothers and sisters in Beregost.

Dear brother and sisters,

I wish my letter finds you well. Four years ago I had the pleasure of meeting briefly Dawnpriest Alesea Abbot before I continued on my pilgrimage to the Dome of the Rose in Athkatla, where I stayed until around a tendays ago. After serving there for four years, I hope I am able to provide my service to the Song of the Morning Temple in search of completing my paladin training. I hope my fellow brothers and sisters here will find my service helpful.

May the Morn be upon you,
Gyren Edwood
