Foundation of the Astral Ward

604 AE

Beneath the Hare's second moon, on this wintry night, I, Isgarren, acknowledge Taryn as the first Warden of the Wizard's Court. She will guide the newly dubbed Astral Ward in the pursuit of knowledge and understanding; they will protect Amnytas and the court, and by doing so they will protect Tyria itself from the mysteries that live beyond the veil.

Isgarren, the Curator

I, Taryn, first Warden of the Astral Ward, sign my name in mine own blood as a promise to Isgarren and the beings of the Wizard's Court. I vow to protect the secret of the court and its wizards, as I vow to protect Tyria from the many threats that linger within the obscure. I will act as a shield for those who have no shirt, and I will watch the ancient magics that seep from the Mists. While war rages as the elder beasts rise and slumber, I will keep my eyes to the sky and to the Mists beyond. In Isgarren's name: Tyria will not fall to anything but its own actions.

Taryn, the First Warden
