My dearest Celidon family,

It is with mixed emotions that I pen these words today. This is much
more sorrowful than I had imagined, but nevertheless, choices in life
between good and good are not often made cheerfully.

All my life I have lived under the boughs of Celidon. I was born here,
had my first love here, lost him to death...somehow found my path
leading me along where my heart longed to stay~thinking I would have a
family and a home of my own in the shadow of the Crest~but paths do not
often stay straight, and mine took a flying leap off a precipice that
nearly killed me.

When I landed, my heart found love, family and hope for the future in
the arms of Nuada. After much deliberation, we have decided to make our
home near the guarded gates of Kinsarmar and join our family to her
society.

My work with the Hunters will always bring me home to Celidon, and in my
heart, the dream of her will always live somewhere deep inside. You can
take the girl out of Celidon, but you can never take the Celidon out of
the girl. Mind you, I will never be far away.

I love so many of you, including my beloved parents, Krystalia and
Arcarn. But they understand the commitment I have made to my family and
life with Nuada. I hope you will all do the same. I will still patrol
and through my guild protect the forests of Celidon and all of nature.

Love Always,

Lady Solandra Ryvoan
