A note from the editor;

In this Old Tongue section of the library I would like to present the endeavours of my Old Tongue class. Their collective creativity has made my class a success and has ultimately had an impact on people's attitudes towards the classes. I enjoyed tremendously teaching these spectacular individuals, each with their own characteristics, and small quirks that make their work unique. I would like to take the oppertunity to thank Neisa Alibrylla for her tremendous work on the Old Tongue dictionaries, a resource that we all leaned very heavily upon. I would also like to thank the people who participated in this exercise, Laurienne in particular (who met every last one of my challenges). However you are all tremendous and deserve your places here in the halls of the library. I am proud of each and every one of you. Please enjoy the beautiful and creative spirits that the tower has to offer, I will be adding to this as my classes progress, and hopefully you will join in, and leave your own mark for those to gaze upon years from now.

Thank you.
