People of Sanctuary! I am Noirin Waken, Lore master, once of the mighty Mithril Kingdom of Upper Shanatar. It is my pleasure to bring light upon the situation and the council! Both the Councilor Frum and Wyric admit the delays in the Council were for the emergency situations with the Drow, and to deal with its own problems. Before you lose all faith in the Council, let me remind you what they have done for the people! Councilor Frum himself donated 20,000 gold coins for the building of a Library, a building of Research and knowledge. He has also Donated 10, 000 gold pieces to the Orphanage of Sanctuary! Councilor Frum has also negotiated with the Great Shadow for the Protection of Sanctuary from the vilest of drow! Councilor Wyric had the Guest law that was applying to half orcs revoked so Half Orcs could be citizens again! Half orcs, you have the council to thank for your citizenship again! People, Councilor Frum is an Honest merchant, he grieves each night for the starving people of lower, he and Councilor Wyric both truly believe Unity will be in the best interests of lower and Upper Sanctuary! But alas, Frum has admitted that the People of Lower, being fiercely independent, do not wish such. Councilor Frum has said time and time again to the Council that this town needs a new mayor, but his words fall on deaf ears. He also has suggested that the Canal Docks be renovated so that trade and mercantilism may flourish! Yes, the council has become Stagnant, but people of Sanctuary, have faith in the council that has you had faith in for the last 150 years!

I have Interviewed both Councilors, both Frum and Wyric, and both have high hopes for Sanctuary. Frum wishes Sanctuary to become a metropolis of merchants, teeming with knowledge and power in its industry. Wyric declared that Sanctuary will always have problems, but as it grows bigger and more powerful, he hopes that Sanctuary will always be a city of freedom! Yes Sanctuary has problems; yes the Council has its problems, yet they are only mortal! The reasons why the Elections were delayed are because there was the drow threat to Consider! How can you blame the council for seeing a crisis eminent saw fit to delay the very reason why Sanctuary is special? No, people of Sanctuary, the Council is your government, the very embodiment of the people of whom you elected. I ask you now, have faith once more in the council, give your understanding for the terrible tribulations can press ones mind to the brink. So I ask you once more, have faith, please.

Noirin Waken, Lore master, once of the Mithril kingdom of old Shanatar.
