From Trevize May 2, 2000

How to begin something like this...I just don't know.

As Dorr's note informed you, I have stepped down as guild leader of Arcane Valor.
Real life obligations (close parallel of Faalcon's situation) have kept me away from
Norrath, and have not allowed me to serve you all as I should. I have not upheld the
honor you all bestowed upon me, and therefore it is time for a change. I will remain
in the game, and, for the foreseeable future, will remain an officer in Arcane Valor.
I just won't be the "Big Cheese" any more...that honor now falls on Dorr and, when
he is ready to pass it on, to whomever may fill the big shoes created long ago
by Mr. Ironstar.

I wish to thank you all for your patience over the last several weeks as I attempted
to unsuccessfully reconcile my two lives, especially Teledriel and Chalene. I hope
your friends are able to join soon! Also my thanks to Dorr and Cyaena for holding
things together while I could not be there. Manolen, I would still be honored to be
the one to welcome you into the fold, and I will still be there for you, as well as the
rest of you. My heartfelt thanks once again to you all, and may Tunare's smile light
your path to fulfillment!

Trevize Orcrist
Humble servant of the Order of Arcane Valor
