Greetings, Gwennefhyn Azon, Knighted Guard of Lord Aegis,

The honour I extended to your Guild on behalf of My Order was a pleasure
to Me. However, there seems to be a perception out there amongst mortals
that this recognition was a ploy to "indoctrinate the Shamans further
into My Dark grasp." My recognition of the Shamans as a lay organization
of the Dark Order by no means precludes another Order from extending
such recognition to them as well. In fact, as Patron of the Shamans, I
view it as a badge of honour to be recognized by other religious Orders.
Any who has done ANY study into the Dark Religion ought to understand
that there are few things that are considered anathema to Us.
Researching, understanding and learning about other religions is not one
of them.

In Darkness,
Lord Twilight Trismegistus

Penned by my hand on the 25th of Chronos, in the year 317 AF.
