*notices placed around Trinsic and in the barracks and guardhouses*

It is with regret that I must announce
that Kaelyn has retired as Captain and from the guards
due to ill health. I am sure you will all join me
in thanking her for the magnificent job
she did as Captain and for Trinsic generally.

Senior Sergeant Dawn has nobly accepted promotion
to the Captaincy. Please give Captain Dawn your support
as she adjusts to her new duties. There is no doubt
that she will do an excellent job, and will continue to uphold
the honour of Trinsic along with the rest of the guards.

Duke of Trinsic, Servant of the Realm, Defender of the South, etc etc

The personal seal of the Duke of Trinsic:
An eagle flying, holding the branch of a thornbush in its claws; surrounding are the words "Mine honour is my life; both grow in one; take honour from me, and my life is done."
