Master Gadrin

Baelwyn
Signifies loyalty that survives every test put to it, learning the cost of the work before the reward. Passed on intact, which few names of its era managed.
Kaelen
Signifies instinct sharpened by long exile, taking the blame that kept a fragile alliance intact. Held in higher regard now than it ever was at the time.
Quelian the Light-bringer
Signifies a bearing that settles a restless room, keeping counsel that changed the course of a campaign. Known well enough that it needs no explanation.
Sariar the Far-strider
Signifies steadiness others borrow in a crisis, refusing a title that would have been easier to accept. Carried by successors who have yet to fully earn it.
Caelrin the Light-bringer
Signifies conviction that predates the current age, standing where others have already turned back. Remembered less for a single victory than for the long stretch after it.
Valvan the Iron-willed
Signifies discipline held when it costs something, taking the blame that kept a fragile alliance intact. Invoked in oaths by those with no direct claim to it.
Zalel
Signifies a composure that outlasts the fight, taking the blame that kept a fragile alliance intact. Recorded plainly in the archives, which says more than embellishment would.
