Dear Aya,
You will be pleased to know that I have arrived safely within the city of Sundren. The rumors we have heard within Tethyr are true, the city does indeed float freely from the ground just as the doomed cities of Netheril once did. It is strange to be so high above the ground and yet see the familiar sights of a city around me.
I believe now more than ever that the calling I felt was from The Watcher, leading me to this valley and its people. The presence of the darkness is strong here and it shall take equal strength to ensure it stays at bay. I have learned of a dreadful battle that claimed many who fought for the good of all. A part of me wonders if it was their collective screams that resounded so strongly within my own soul, calling forth any and all that would defend their land now that they had fallen in its defense.
I know that mother and father disapprove of my departure and that their vision for me was to continue our family's tradition of serving within the Champions Vigilant, but I hope that one day they might come to see that this is my course. I shall always revere and serve The Watcher until my body can no longer draw breath, but I must do so in my own way. Their instruction with sword and shield shall carry me through the times ahead of this I have no doubts.
If mother and father ask of me, tell them I am well and ask them to pray for me as I pray for you all each night during my vespers. There is much work to be done and I must start where I can. Know that I shall love you always dear sister, my thoughts and prayers will forever be towards your safety and well being.
Faith in Helm always.
With love,
Your brother.
