We return to Selkai after our time with the Storm Wizard. We hold a council of war. We decide that perhaps our biggest problem is, as usual the loremasters, so we head to Gireg Jan to talk to him.

The loremasters are apparently paralyzed by their perceptions of past failures. Especially the failure of the crowns. We ask how we could help reverse the profile and Gireg Jan suggests one good thing we could do is go to Karalon and politic for a year.

We interrogate him more and more about Andraax and how much trouble we could get into for following our "instructions".

"What are you worried about, they didn't even mindwipe Elor!"

Imre retreats into a vast metaphor with weeds and plants and gardeners.

Gireg Jan knows that there are a number of obscure prophesies about the orders being reformed first before the emporer came back. Now it makes total sense to him that we were chosen by Andraax. Wow, Gireg Jan is cooler than we even thought.

He passes on the rumor that the Order of the Eye has been infiltrating Sel-Kai, but it's only vague whispers at the moment and no other details.

He will suggest in his next messages to the Loremaster Council that Imre and I be appointed Loremasters in Residence in Santa Vallandra, and official advisors to the mayor.

Wow, that worked out so well.

Kyrik finds one guy in the Santa Vallandra army, an above average guy, a senior seargent type, who is in fact one of the Order of the Sword. His name is Alain. Kyrik tells him he's heard good reports about him and will be bringing him to Sel-kai for special training. Haeraan determines he's a thrid level fighter. We start him in war college training via our empire building funds.

Imre gets a couple of hits off of his ring in Selkai, but can't actually identify anyone.

Haeraan notices one guy who sets off his ring in a residential area. Haeraan Mind Stores him so he can find him again later. He mind types the guy and discovers that he's a 2nd professional mixed man. He decides not to leap upon him as yet.

We experiment with Kyrik's sword a bit and find that non-bloodline people can attune his sword and get level one powers and the sword glows when Kyrik walks by, so it seems likely not so many people in Ardania are actually in the order.
