Some time has passed....
...the triadic lions had left, those close to heart had left, all without a word. I sitback, Anna as one of those responsible had to process for a time. Bitter and cynical as she was, she couldn't be left with the patients for a time. But now she was back! The weirdest healer of Torm was back and it was time to chnage. Taking her role as the reception healer again, she woul gtree the patients and ask for their concerns and issues. With a stoic peace she would listen, then decide wether she would take care of the patient herself or ask one of the other healers. In the time she had nothing to do, she wrote letters and flyers that were shared for everyone to see, also those who were once patients were adressed : Torm's Table is coming! Help wanted!
Dear patients,
you all have been warmly welcomed and treated and taken care of when you needed out help. Well, we gave it gladly. But now is the time we need your help!
Valkur's Roar suffering hunger and poverty and we want to get to the root of the issue! This is just the beginning. It's been years ago, that a Torm's table was held. But now it's time to renew it!
If you feel like helping or wish to give back the help you recieved, please leave your name in the empty list below. We will know how to find you.
Please reply withing the next two tendays. After that there will be a meeting with all who are interested to help.
We look forward to see you.
May the Triad watch over you Anna Larsson ~Triadic Curate and Healer of Torm~

If you wish, me can help arrange to have any meetings happen in the Great Hall of Valkur's Roar. Otherwise, please let me know when and where the meeting will take place.
In Luck and Death,

Another letter comes in, penned in an even hand:
Miss Larsson:
As the Triadic representative on Valkur's Council of Faith, I appreciate the efforts to help and would love to sit on this table with you. Let me know when this is scheduled and I'll do my best to attend.
May your burdens be eased, Tenna of Ilmater

Dear Sisters in Faith
I am grateful and heartened by the quick and kind response from the Suzail chapter. In truth I and many others tending to the distribution of food are perplexed, no that word does not do justice to what is transpiring my mission is bewilder and baffled by what is occurring. There has been a huge outpouring of effort by the local farms and estates, none more than the Lester estate. There should be enough, no far more than enough food to satisfy all the hungry. Enough for dare I say triple the mouths.
Yet with each passing day the situation grows more desperate. Some of our flock now, strange as it may seem,
(pause in the letter as a few lines are crossed out)
I must now believe that no amount of food will suffice. I myself have seen several men, woman and even children wasting away in spite of all our efforts. The situation is growing worse. Many of the local trees have been stripped of bark and no one dares leave a pet unattended. Of song birds and pigeons, there are none and even vermin such as rats are scarcely seen. I have heard of dark whispers and the common folk now all keep close eye on their children.
What ever aid you send will be graciously accepted but I fear that all our measures will not be ever enough. Yet I know in my heart of hearts through Ilmater’s grace we shall over come this dark time.
Your Valkur sister in faith
Anna

Having returned to the House, Henrik is busy gathering items including some of Alamor's many letters to the priest that the healer keeps in his personal files. The shredded remains of a toy panther are added to the collection. The holy basin in the shrine is off-limits as he is preparing the scrying prayer of Magic Font to try and locate Alamor's spirit... // Ascension

*after a long day, a dark figure can be seen entering the house of healing.. he looks to be meandering a little and exhaustion is apparent from his posture.. shuffling his way slowly to a wall he collaspes and lies there as he passed out the rest of the day*

*Henrik is relying upon other healers to attend the patients as he is engaged in serious ritual casting and prayers near the holy basin and altar for many hours. If he doesn't get what he seeks, he tries other options even if they require him to rest. During this, he is carefully-focused and not speaking to anyone*

His posture is less tense, his eyes remain closed as he sits beside the icons of Saints and Martyrs close to the altar on a simple mat.*

In the days following the Tragedy of Cloudstone a little hin in blue can be seen wandering the farms and tending to any animal that was hurt in the chaos.
She tends to farm animals, war horses, forest animals and any other animal that needs her care.
At night she camps by the Shrine of Lurue and prays as she sews a little doll.
Hazel is an orphan yet again…

She made her way to Henrik's side to quietly inquire about his findings*

Henrik greets Ru and tells her of his preparations. He moves quietly around the House of Healing preparing components that include holy water and diamonds...the priest is lost in his own thoughts. Reaching for a vial his hand misses, sending the glass bottle crashing to the stone floor as a vision suddenly descends over him and his mind and eyes are shifted to another place. Alamor rises through the skies of Arvandor, with great, feathery wings on his back. It is early morning, and the clouds are a soft pink and gold. Another winged elf greets him in the sky. It is an old woman with long white hair, and a kindly smile, wearing golden robes and a wizard's hat.Henrik watches, smiling... She takes Alamor's hand and guides him down toward a lush valley, where many winged figures, blonde and black haired, are gathered in a forest glade. She smiles to Alamor as they descend to the gathering.
The sun shines through the trees, and a gentle and warm breeze rustles in the leaves.
Henrik turns his head - following the smell of spring flowers... In the distance there is music and singing. The beauty of this glade is almost overwhelming. The gathering of elves look up at Alamor, and they wave and greet him. The sun seems to glow brighter, until there is nothing but bright, white light....Henrik closes his eyes, when he opens them he is back standing in the House. "A vision" The healer whispers. He explains what he has seen to Ru. "I thank the Seldarine for allowing this insight and kindness..I will meditate upon and consider its meaning but..it seems our loss, is holy Arvandor's gain. To try now to retrieve him, would it heal others to have him here? Certainly, but would it be the best for him? That truly is the question we must consider. I can surely still try at no risk to Alamor but we must contemplate the ethics. It must be a considered and thoughtful choice..I will let it rest until his friends know what has been seen" He places the diamonds back in their pouch and kneels to clean up the smashed vial. // Willow

*Ru would startle a bit, concern flitting across her features at the sudden onset of the vision, and would listen to the telling after with a soft smile*
"I will leave any attempts ta your discretion, though no' thinkin' is much on these rough roads ta call anyone back from 'at. Will be tendin' my own prayers if ya need me"
*Ru could be seen slipping away from the House of Healing after the meeting and eventually moving through Greatgaunt heading North, still sullen though a bit of the weight seems to have lifted from her shoulders*

Some time later a statement is posted , Henrik has spent some time considering the matter. he will likely give the issue time to be absorbed and thought upon by friends and family of Alamor. Whatever they choose and whatever is decided in the future, they know he will support and carry out their wishes.

Leules would read the missive seeking a meeting and leave word that he will attend. he then reads the notice regarding Alamor, pressing his lips together then offering a small smile upon reaching the end of the notice. he then turns to head inside the House of Healing to offer aid to those in need and find more information regarding the meeting that is to take place.

Anna would show her respect and honor to the sacrifce made at the Cludstobe event, herself not having bein ablte to be present. Knowing Mystogan and having treated him in teh past already, she would pick him up, lead him to a bed and examine him to see if there's any physical issues she can see with her experience and knowledge. In her free hours, there would be letters going out to those who offered to help with the issues in Valkur's Roar.
Greetings all you good souls,
be it serveants of one of the Triad, other good deities or guardians of Nature itself. By now Henrik and me have all reasons to assume that something unnatural is going on in Valku's Roar. People are going mad eating any food they can get. Animals disappearing and vermin crawling in the City, so much the guards can't get them all. People are afraid to let their children get out of the house even. It show that it's no longer safe in the least in Valku's Roar.
We will need your help for sure and bring conrades and friends is they're geniune about wanting to help. Therefore we're calling a mmeting to exchnage informatiosn and plan futher steps. Please come to Talbot's Inn at time and day. I will try and rent that place fior private function for us.
Until we see you , we remain with the belssings of the traid to you and yours.
May they keep you. Anna Larsson
((Please cheack your PMs reguardung the meeting to schedule together. ))

Henrik is listed as being back on duty fully until the aftermath of Cloudstone is over. He wears black armbands on his Triadic Order uniform.
Aside from his duties, he is also assisting Anna with her investigation into Valkurs Roar.
When he is not busy or taking a break, he can be seen sitting quietly by the House's open doors. His expression speaks of silent loss, processing thoughts and feelings. Looking into space.
He spends time with the two year-old ward of the temple, Matthias, speaking affectionately to the young child and playing small games while preparing the boy for life beyond the care of the House.

Henrik appears from the clerical door with a pack, he is dressed in his civilian climbing gear and carrying messages. He pins one to the door "I am away for a few days, need to find peace and communion, those who know me well, know where I am if they need me - H, x" He gives a message to a Triadic Knight and nods "if you'd be so good as to attend this and take notes, thank you" He pauses, seeing one last scrap of parchment and adds it to the many notices and notes on the wall behind him before he puts on a wide-brimmed hat low over his eyes, shoulders the pack and leaves the House for several days.

Elvewyn appears inside the House of the Healing suddenly, the after effects of a Teleport spell.
He places two sacks down on the nearest table as he looks around for the nearest staff member.
Basic supplies for you soup kitchen and a collection of healing supplies for your staff. Please tell Henrik this is the tribute from Alizarin, in thanks for saving Vennis' life and caring for him. Please tell him I apologise for the delay in between the last tribute and this one - I have been away.
He then offers a nod, turns on his heel and vanishes in a crack of light.

Siphanien accepts the donation, dipping her head I thankfulness, noting they are all very happy to receive such generous donation and that it will be put to good use. She then helps the staff bring the supplies to storage. After (if desired) blessing she offers some food and drink, she makes sure the visitor is given a proper goodbye.

Henrik enters the House, having been away on business, accompanied by the Knight Commander Balthasar of the Triadic Order of the Hand of Atonement. He gives the commander a tour of the facilities; introducing the guest to his wife, the staff and clergy and the patients warmly. The two men settle at the refectory table for supper, laid on by Brother Eustace and Henrik listens to the commander talk while engaging in conversation steeped in goodwill and good relations between the faiths.

A male clothed in beautiful red clothing enters the House of Healing. He pushes his hood down and brushes his hair out of his face, tying it up. He offers a smile to those around before making his way over to Adolina. They have a brief chat and Ander sets a hand on her shoulder with a reassuring squeeze.
He then makes his way over to triage/those with minor injuries and begins using his extensive healing knowledge to help triage, treat minor wounds and generally assist in anyway he can.
If he catches Henrik and Siph's eye he would offer a nod and a smile.
He also seems to be using his own supplies to assist.
