《The Marked Ones》Chapter 14.5: A Letter from Ronan to Rawani
Advertisement
Letter to Rawani. If this letter cannot reach her hands, it should get Kyrus' hands. If this letter cannot reach his hands, deliver to Peck.
As promised three months ago, I have been moving slowly from Mordia. Traveled by foot, horse, and ship all over the western part of the continent.
As something to report to the council of Adhaz, the Kingdom of Betheas has again adopted hostile positions towards us, the Kingdom of Ahether and the Duchy of Elion maintain a friendly status with us. Still, I sense that may come to change in Elion for political reasons.
Having said all the boring parts that will be of least interest to you, me, and possibly Kyrus and Peck, I will get to the point if they read this letter.
Over a week ago, I performed the entry ritual in a supposedly cursed cave west of Mizuna. The place was somewhat hidden, but I managed to get there after some directions.
First, a week ago, a marked Akajsi girl appeared here. It has no relation to the cave as she told me the day before writing this letter that she appeared in a hole in the middle of the forest. The girl looks like any other Akajsi, except that her eyes are black, counteracting her lineage's unusual eye colors. I suspect there is something strange about that, beyond a simple difference.
One thing that bears on the cave is a boy who accompanied the Akajsi girl. The boy claimed that he had entered here two days before this letter. The boy has dark skin and hazel eyes. At least in principle, he looks like a Talhari from the central region of Feinsia. This somewhat reaffirms my "theory of randomness," but I need to do more research on this.
I named the girl Yue, clearly in honor of Yuergar, the matriarch of the elves. The boy I named Fynn. If you, Rawani, and Kyrus saw him, you would understand the reason for that name.

I found them both in a bandit camp, they were planning to help a group of farmers with a kidnapping issue or something, I didn't pay much attention.
They both had a fighter's mark, which is odd. The guy was also pushed to a limited situation and exploded in rage, which initially allowed me to see his Warrior Trance. Poor kid is very tormented by what happened, but it was something that he just couldn't help.
If all goes well, I will take them to Lastrel, where they will take a ship to reach Adhaz, or at least manage to dock at some Marked of Nandel. I recognize that escorting them there will hinder my investigation. Still, I've already run into several members of the White Flame around here, so I won't take any chances. If what happened at the Fynn's entry point is true, it could confirm one of my theories about our origin.
