[Famous People of Sosaria, continued from Section 1 part D]
Rose: "Tell me about your name?"
Vagrant Setsu: My name? I'm called Setsu. The Vagrant Setsu. It's a nickname I've grown fond of. Setsu means, straight, honest, in Tokunoese, I think. The Vagrant part of my name is because I'm always moving... I'm never around for too long in some places.
Rose: "Tell me about your people? The Wolves?"
Vagrant Setsu: "The Night Wolves of Justice were formed when the leader of the Red Mage Society got most of its members angry through acts of selfish means, paired with activities at one of my old houses. Most of the wolves left to form the Night Wolves of Justice. We're a rather rough group, on occasion... our fighters, mages and tamers can be very harsh to one another sometimes, but do mean well. Our merchants, the faction I belong to... We're very friendly towards most any kind of people. We stand for justice, equality... and the right to roam. Kind of a reason I like being with the wolves.
Rose: "And how did the Night Wolves of Justice get involved with the United Council of Sosaria?"
Vagrant Setsu: It came by chance, actually. I was setting up a new house I had acquired close to Newcastle... then a fellow by the name of Ren the Conjurer happened upon me, and asked to come in. We started chatting, and well... soon he drew us into the Council. It took us some time to make a claim for a nation.
Rose: "You said you were a merchant. What sort of wares do you sell?"
Vagrant Setsu: Oh, my forte is carpentry... As you can clearly see before you. I try to sell what I can... My most popular is bloodwood and frostwood suits of armor. But unfortunately, they're only popular from my guildmates and their friends. When I can, I sell cheap Frostwood in bulk... but that doesn't last often. I'm also a tinker and a blacksmith. I'm moderately good at both; I'm not the best but I can repair and forge most anything of a mundane quality. I've even made a few golems, and serveral sets of tools that my guild uses.
Rose: "What advice would you give someone new about getting involved in the UCS?"
Vagrant Setsu: Be friendly, vocal, and humble. The last thing one wants to do is make enemies with possible friends... Vocal because if something is bothering you... someone will change it. And humble ... that's almost self-explanatory. As friendly as some people in the council can be... you really don't wanna piss off the big wigs.
Rose:" Thank you Vagrant Setsu for taking the time for this interview!"

From: Amirah Imadii Za'Harrat al'Thor, Ruler of Nujel'm Sir or madam It seems that a certain reporter has taken liberities with reports from children and known criminals, with pointless attacks on my person. As the rightful Royal Heir to Nujel'm, such reporting is vile and insidious.
Firstly, all information pertaining to my person, family or Realm, will come offically from my hand or that of someone charged with such duties. The liberities taken by your reporter, prove that the ways of Truth and fairness have passed with that of Good King British. To question my actions is uncalled for. Whatever friendships or alliances I make in the name of Nujel'm are just that our business, the slander that is allowed within the pages of your publication will cease where my matters or those of Nujel'm are concerned.
I offer this an official response to further inquiries into my actions, edits, or personal alliances are not to be place on public places, and will see that I am respected as not only one of Royal desent, but of my husband's honor as a high ranking member of the Britannian Armed Forces.
Response from the Editor: Lady Imadii, thank you for your letter to the Sosarian News Agency. In regards to your accusations of "Slander", Newspapers don't print Slander, Slander is spoken. You may wish to accuse the eyewitnesses that have been interviewed by our reporters of Slander. If you wish to take up an accusation of Libel (the written form of Slander) our editorial staff will be happy to assist you.
With fond regards, The Editorial Staff of the Sosarian Times
