Breecaun the Tranquil

Some time ago, I met a dwarf in Khorandain named Breecaun, son of Brukul the Seventh. Brukul was a priest working at the Temple of Brilliance, but Breecaun did not want anything to do with holy communion. I met Breec' in a Khorandian tavern while he was in the middle of a drunken rant about his father's religious impertinence. The first thing I told him was to join a different guild -- a few days later, he told me that he had become a warrior. When he left Khorandain for Rheydin to begin his career, I stopped hearing from him.

23rd of Order, 859 PC, I got a letter from Breec' saying that he had abandon his guild for the sake of following Tranquility. The subject of the note shocked me, but the story was quite something.

Breec' was hunting with two Minotaur in Emerald Forest; all of them were about the 18th title or so, but for some reason, the Minotaur would not stop raiding the south end of the woodlands. Breec' expressed his disgust in the letter, saying that the Minotaur were childish to keep dancing after the brownies and pixies when they could have just moved on. Breec' even used the word "genocide". It just so happened that a dark-knight had been chanting near the slope to Clover, so when Breecaun's group got to the rendezvous, they were attacked. Breec' said that the Minotaur fled, and that he found shelter in Clover. Unable to find replacements for his, I quote, "bitter and hopelessly lost comrades", he traveled in to Emerald to confront the brownies on his own.

Arriving amongst the trampled foliage and the bodies of dead

sprites, he could not bring himself to raise his weapon against them, not even for the guild. To compound his guilt, a pixie had somehow survived the recent attack and was sitting up on a leaf tending to a wound on her wing. Breec' then described in the letter that he had dropped his axe.

He said in the letter that he apologized to the pixie, and even had a conversation with her. She was incredibly smart, and even though Breec' admitted in the note that he did not know much about the world, somehow the pixie's words converted him to a new philosophy. He then confronted his father to apologize again, located the shrine of Tranquility, and swore an oath to the Clerical guild. He now lives in the Fallen Dara, doing hobby work for the Crafters Guild. Breec' wrote that he has not touched a weapon since he dropped his axe in Emerald.
