[Ponte Alto] Tidings

Max,

Speaking as a fellow red-head and former Trimarian (Shire of Starhaven)... Sunscreen is your FRIEND.

If you see Jon Kirikson (lives in Marcaster most often plays in Oldenfeld) or James Kirikson (Darkwater) on the list field, wack them once for Kirik.

Be well ... live the dream.

Regards,
Beth Schreiber/Lisbet

Friends: 
 
As I believe most of you are aware, I have spent the past year striving to find gainful employ within our local economy. 
 
True to my nature as perhaps one of the more epic (or perhaps tragic or comic, depending on your perspective, of course) squire errants of our Society, it is apparently not to be so -- since I seem to need to move Kingdoms every three to four years whether I want to or not. 
 
I have finally been offered (and just accepted) a job as the Vice President of Strategic Marketing Intelligence working directly for the President and the CEO of one of the top ten to fifteen largest advertising agencies in the country -- which is unfortunately down in the fiery depths of Trimaris (Fort Lauderdale, FL). 
 
On the positive side, it is an absolutely fantastic opportunity in a truly beautiful (though goddawful sunny and humid -- particularly for us redheads) city where a bunch of my family lives -- with the added benefit that I won't be homeless, unemployed and in abject poverty. On the negative side, it's in Trimaris and not with all y'all here in Ponte Alto and Atlantia. 
 
I fervently and deeply wish that it were possible for me to stay and continue to enjoy the tremendous comradeship and fantastic esprit that we have developed together and to help continue to provide whatever small leadership and training support my skills might enable so as to help continue to move things forward... but sadly the fates have not willed it so. 
 
Working with and being a part of our Scholum, Unit, and Army has been one of the most rewarding and fun experiences I could imagine, and I thank you all for helping make it happen. All our accomplishments and achievements are yours, and I am humbled and grateful to have been a part of what you all have done together. It is my sincere wish and hope that you will all continue this work to keep making it happen for yourselves and for our great Kingdom. 
 
I look forward to visiting and seeing you all often at events and on the field -- and who knows.... I've come back to Atlantia, before! 
 
Always in friendship and service, 
 
Max Von Halstern
