"As powerful as I am," Virve said loudly, speaking as though she was addressing a training ground filled with fresh recruits. "I can only be in one place at a time. When I served Lady Nyrielle as one of her guards, I fought shoulder to shoulder with some of the greatest soldiers the Vale of Mists has ever produced in battles where people who should have been our allies betrayed us, offering one hand in hospitality while the other hand clutched a knife."
"To protect Mother Ashlynn will require more than just soldiers. We will need sorcerers, woodsmen and trackers… people who are comfortable watching over her and her coven from enemies while we call upon the power of the world in rituals and great workings. Not everyone here is suited for a place among her closest protectors but if you think yourself worthy, or if you know others who may be, then I welcome you to visit me and prove your capabilities."
