<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2><SPAN class=394163304-08112008>lady Kazi Enkazi
of Aethelmearc was gravely injured by a stag's horn many months ago, seeminly
during last year's late rut season. Her recovery was hampered by a freak wound
inflicted by a weapon which made its way to these lands via the Silk
Road. She took a sea voyage to visit the healing springs, hoping to speed
her recovery. Not long after her departure, a massive storm took the sea,
and Kazi was never heard from again. Thus, she is presumed dead.

<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2><SPAN class=394163304-08112008>She left me all of
her posessions. Some of them will be available for sale to those who
are interested at the Cooks and Bards event to offset her debts and cover the
expenses for her funeral Mass; there is no body to bury as she was
lost at sea, but her device, her awards, and her titles shall be interred in her
stead. She also left some things behind for certain individuals, and I
shall pass those on in person. I shall attempt to use the carving tools
she left me. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2><SPAN class=394163304-08112008>She was a fighter,
a storyteller, and a carver, and she knew how to read and write. Many of
you were closer to her than she was to me, and I accept her eccentricities and
shall treasure her memory. You are unlikely to meet me - however,
should you see a woman who looks much like the late Kazi did, wearing
her clothes, please be aware that it is not her, but me, Kate, her
twin sister. I shall gladly adopt her wardrobe, for she was a mercenary,
and amassed various quality items. She attributed her success not only
to her lord Brion's support, but also to the martial skill imparted by
her Master Aeleric Basiliscus. Her baldric shall be returned to him,
but the sword necklace he gifted her has been left for her daughters.

<DIV><BR><FONT face=Verdana><FONT size=2>I'd like to thank those of
you who have been supportive of me and my new lord Brion during this
difficult time. I shall take care of my late sister's family as
clan tradition dictates. <SPAN class=394163304-08112008>Please
be aware that our clan may not be passing through these parts again for
many years, if ever. </SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>
