*After the events of the defense , Aesthir can be seen openly on the town, his face uncovered and his gestures proud, he helps with the reconstruction showing openly the Rofirenite colors and banners as he did during the defense, his usual mood harsh but fair is seen again as he spends the time helping the remainer "soldier" with the reconstruction, taking a natural role as leader and facilitator,  inspiring the word of How Rofirein the Lord Protector will answer if have faith.

He spends several days at Center helping with this regard, and preaching for the hope of the town ,  he will often use Naldin as reference of valor and organization, praising him for what he is and what a Knight of the Wyrm should be. an able and smart defender and a stalwart of the virtues that such knights should display.*

Daniel blushes at his mistake muttering something to the effect that is it improper for Center to lack any sort of civil leadership.  Offering his apologies and thanks to those that helped him he makes his way the Bullseye Inn and makes some inquiries of the Innkeeper there on who precisely would constitute citizens of the trading village.  Once this crude census is finished, he tries to persuade the merchants that hiring a guard or three for common defense would be in thier own best interests for the time being.

The innkeeper, a man in no clear hurry to answer Daniel's question, gives the matter some thought. His answer starts as a list, that includes himself, the bartender and their respective mates/spouses.  A rambling consideration follows as he lists off some names and either discounts them or seems to include them in the count.  

Eventually, he comes up with an answer:
"Seven.  Aye, seven's what we got here all th' time...give 'r take."

With crude census in hand, Daniel makes his way to Vehl to research the requirements of establishing a proper village under Brelian law.

After weeks of journey to Fort Vehl, Daniel's research is met with some confusion, though he does get a respectful answer from a helpful archivist.

"Sir, I believe we can find this out for you, though I wonder if you might have better luck asking in Brelin...Port Hempstead, perhaps.  It is there, afterall...Brelin I mean...that such a matter must be adjudicated."


// as a general note to everyone, keep in mind that Center is still little more than an outpost with a population that is mostly transient in nature.  Most of the "structures" there are tents, shanties and caravan wagons, with very few permanent buildings. Only a few of Center's population would actually consider it their home at the present time. There are some "seasonal" residents, mostly traders who take advantage of Center's placement and commercial traffic for months at a time. There are also some "regular" visitors who pause in Center for a few days at a time on their way through along the trade routes.

Daniel thanks the archivist profusely.  "Any further information can be sent to the Angels Guild in Hempstead then, my good man."  With that Daniel boards one of the many ships from Vehl to Hempstead.  During the voyage he wracks his brain trying to figure out how to get the authorities in Hempstead to grant Center some manner of permenant protection and guard.  Upon landing he is heard to be muttering about a trade charter as he makes his way to the Council building and requests when an audience with the council may be made.
