Fish, Iron and Love

April 15, 2021 doctor cora trade school tylenay

In Tylenay From Tal Rayen to Tylenay is about a day and a half. You have to go the little river port place again, and then further east-north-east. Or maybe that’s not exactly correct. I’m not a cartographer. The road was pretty amazing, though, well graded, with a good, deep…

August 16, 2012 school and hospital

Cora has been so worried about Alaise and Arin– but they’ve just been busy. (And Arin isn’t much of a writer, but she knew that.) The letter also contains several pages copied from a herbal. (Keşniş happens to be the Azeri word for coriander.) Here is Cora’s reply. Dear Mother…

Arin’s report to Raisse

May 18, 2010 school and hospital

A very different Arin and a very different Raisse– not a journeyman butcher in Valdis reporting to the queen, but a Guild runner in Turenay (well, currently in Veray) reporting to the head of the Guild. Eirein Arin astin Hayan to Hallei Raisse in Turenay Dear Raisse, This time I’ll…

March 14, 2010 conquest of solay doctor cora khas wars school and hospital

Cora has been too busy to write in her notebook lately… she’s not only given birth to a daughter, but she’s also adopted baby Jeran and his self-appointed big sister Alaise from the orphanage in Veray. Here’s the last letter Alaise’s father wrote to his family from the war. In…
