The future is in constant motion. What we can see is only an option…a possibility…You may influence the future of your own…and of your community. But you will not accomplish that by doing nothing. You must act. You must do something…or become a slave of others…unable to make free decisions and to choose your own path. Each day is a chance. Each hour is a chance. A chance to make your future glorious and to make yourself one of the heroes of the Galaxy.

36 ABY, Judecca, Gardens pf the Imperial Palace.

_A tall figure was walking through the paved paths in the gardens of the Imperial Palace on Judecca. This figure was not seen in there for few months, but now, the man was back, spending first days after his arrival on Judecca on meditation.

Suddenly, another figure appeared in the gardens. It was a human, wearing a uniform with the insignia of the Empire. It was one of the aids to the Emperor, Xen’Mordin Vismorsus. “I wonder what does he want from me,” thought the man, whose face was hidden in a hood.

The human walked to the being quickly, but with dignity, making the hooded figure smile.

“Sir, I have been ordered tp relay this datapad directly to you,” said the human. “It comes diretly from the Emperor himself.” “Thank you, lieutenant,” replied the figure and took the datapad. “If you meet the Emperor, tell him that I am at his services.” “Yes, sir,” spoke the attaché and immediately walked out of from the gardens to deliver the reply.

The figure in the garden found a bench, sat on it and started reading the message on the datapad.

“Xantros, Good that you are back. I need you to move yourself to a new quarter…and new office. I want you to become my second, the Aedile of House Scholae Palatinae. See me at my office at once.”

The Krath Priest smiled and immediately rushed to the Quaestor’s office. When he reached it, he opened the door and entered the room without even knocking on. Xen’Mordin Vismorsus raised his eyebrows, when he noticed the guest.

“You are pretty fast.” “I have to be. Otherwise, I would be dead long ago,” spoke Xantros with a slight smile. “No party?” “No party. Not for you. Not for Koryn.” “Good. I may do my job without a headache after another boring party,” smirked Xantros. “I can see there is a pile of documents to fill in. One headache is far enough…”_

Welcome to the first Aedile report in the 2013 year!

As you have already been informed by Xen’Mordin, I have been appointed as new Aedile, after Xan’s resignation. There are few, who do not know me yet, but let me introduce myself.

I have spent last three months away from the Brotherhood due to RL studies. However, unknown are the ways of the Force, and I am back, soon that have ever though I would be.

Before my leave, I have served as the Battleteam Leader of Caliburnus for around 20 months. I have also been a member of the MAA staff for a year. Finally, I have been the Professor of the Writing Department of the Shadow Academy for six months. Apart from that, I have participated in various competitions, mainly the ones involving writing, due to keen interests in this matter.

That is all about m past. It is the high time to speak about our future.

Aedile’s Office

Let’s start with communication. It is extremely important for me to be in contact with you. Thus, do not be afraid to come to me with any DJB-related ( particularly House matters ) issues, you may have. No matter, if you are a Grand Master ( despite having no Grand Masters in the rank of our House :P ), or an Apprentice, my door is always opened for you. If you have any ideas how to improve our House, if you wish to run a competition , if you have any problem or any comment on my work, let me know about it immediately. You may reach me via:

Plans

This year is going to be a very important one for our House. There are several large-scale projects to be discussed by the House Summit in near future. They are meant to deal with crucial matters like House lore, extra training for the House members and recruitment, but not only.

Even more importantly, we are going to seek volunteers for some of these projects, when they reach certain stage. It is a unique chance to leave your personal touch on the House! Remember also that it is a chance to fulfill some requirements for your high Journeymen ofr some of Equite promotions! *me stares at Dark Jedi Knights

These projects are announced in a vague form, because they are in very early stages of progress. More details shall be released as we come up with more precises vision of each of them. Stay tuned and look out for additional information!

Goals

All our efforts shall be focused on the main goal – reclanning Scholae Palatinae and proving that we may achieve even more than is needed for this. This means the necessity of improvements in many areas, but I am sure that we are capable of shaping our own future, as it was said in the fictional intro to this report. This year is going to be decisive for our House. We may either flourish and expand or to decline and get closed.

There is much work to be done. Shaping our future is not an easy thing, but I am sure that we may be successful. Tohether. You and me. We. United individuals. We will see much cooperation between the members of the House. You will see many more chances to get involved in the works for our community.

It is the year of great challenge. It the year of great work. It is the year of new chapter in our history.

Place: Judecca Year: 36 ABY It is the story of the Imperial House. Let it be your story!

For the Empire! KP Xantros
