Since his last promotion, Grot participated in fifty eight competitions, eighteen of which were spread across four Brotherhood Vendettas, evidenced by his Seals of Discord, Visions, Enmity, and Ascension. Of these, he placed in twenty eight, including four Novae, managing a solid placement rate of just under fifty percent — a clear indicator of the quality of his submitted work. From his roughly fifteen thousand words of fiction, he earned thirty eight Clusters of Ice, as well as one hundred nineteen Clusters of Fire, one hundred twenty of Earth, and fourteen of Graphite from his many other activities.

Grot spent ten months of this inter-promotion time as an ACC judge. From then-Combat Master Alethia Archenksova, he provided leading judgement on eight matches, graded three qual exams, and provided Rule of Two support on ten other matches beyond that. Further, he reviewed the revised edition of the ACC rubric prior to higher-echelon review and publication to the wider Brotherhood. From April '19 to November '22, he also worked as a Wiki Staff Member. While this particular venue of work is more difficult to track, I can speak from experience as then-Quaestor of Galeres on how he provided guidance for Arcona's many wiki pages, archiving and categorizing multiple outdated articles that included ships, pre-Legends histories, and defunct sub-units.

While he is now in the Rogues and focusing on real-life shenanigans, we never hold that against anyone, and his achievement is now fully ready to be recognized. So Grot, whenever you see this, thank you for your work, and we hope to see you again.

Hevan has been a shining example of a journeyman’s thirst for knowledge. Always ready to ask questions and discover more about the Brotherhood and how it works. Since his last promotion, Hevan has passed an impressive 13 Shadow Academy courses, earned his first degree and placed to 2 of the Shadow Academy decathlons earning a well deserved Crescent with Ruby Star and Crescent with Sapphire Star. Not satiated by just passing his course however, Hevan has made sure to retake his courses to ensure a full understanding of the material. All in all this drive has led to Hevan quickly reaching the XP requirements for a promotion to Journeyman 2, and it is my absolute pleasure to congratulate him on this incredible achievement.
