Juliana Kelrune has been a member of Arcona for two and a half years now. Through tumultuous times, she has persevered. We gather today to recognize her, and to honor an achievement she has long thirsted for. An achievement she wholeheartedly deserves.

Juli was promoted to Hunter eight months ago. During that time, she has participated in a dozen competitions, earning four Clusters of Fire, eight Clusters of Graphite and a Cluster of Ice in the process. In the most recent Great Jedi War, she earned five Seals of Wrath for the five Bins in which she participated. She has also passed ten Shadow Academy courses in the process. Most recently, she was awarded a Dark Cross for her continuing contributions for Battleteam, House and Clan. We couldn't be more proud of her.

In addition to her personal activity, she's a fixture in Arcona's social communities. She's vibrant, fiery, and friendly. Over the past months, I've had the pleasure of seeing her grow and blossom, making new friends that I have little doubt will last her entire Brotherhood career.

Juli: though life might occasionally pull you away, I know your loyalty and dedication to Arcona has never flagged. It is my sincerest honor to recommend your elevation to Knight. Congratulations. You did it!

I don't honestly have words here to do justice to how much this promotion means; one of these recommendations isn't the place for such details, either. I literally cannot express the magnitude of the effort, personal tribulation, devastations, joys, pains, growth, and perseverance that has gone into this step forward today, right here, right now. Luckily, Julie herself knows better than anyone what this means, and it's my honor today as her Master to instead tell anyone who reads this a piece of why and how she has earned the title of Knight.

Julie has done far more in her time than the tasks listed above - though important and worthy in their own right - can quantify. She has spent the last months and years evolving as a member of Arcona, of the Brotherhood, and as a person. She has come from a vagrant Novitiate to a well-known, well-recognized, and well-loved and respected part of her community. She's constantly present in both her Clan and House Telegram chats and in wider DB-chats, especially Fiction Chat, where's she's a frequent voice for discussion on all manner of topics and pays detailed attention to other members, their concerns, and their characters, engaging with all her brothers and sisters in Sithy darkness regardless of clan. Julie also acts as a sort of extension of and aid to the Summit where and when she's able, always the first one forwarding relevant newsposts or announcements, looking up answers for members' questions or linking a particular report she bookmarked for frequently asked questions, and advising new and veteran members alike. Additionally, she's always offering to help in any other way she can, and has personally helped me with several of my reports in gathering and formatting competition information or news sections and asking questions to reply to. She's shown willingness to volunteer for leadership at any level if the need was required, even without prior experience and even knowing the job may be stressful; her only repeated wish has been to be able to help others, to be able to give back to her clan. Her selfless spirit is evident in everything she does, and it's that spirit that we have seen truly come to shine in these last months, more than anything else. There's no such thing as a painless lesson, but Julie has taken hers and turned them into the ability and desire to improve her community and those around her, and I trust that she will go on - and on, and on - to do far more, long after Knighthood.

For now, though, my bestprentice...for now, we say thank you, welcome to the ranks, and congratulations.

Juliana Kelrune had once told me that helping out her clan is what she strives to do, and she is open to whatever she can to make that happen. Her efforts before now had shown that, helping with wiki articles, aiding her master with gathering links for reports, sharing information to her teammates. I have seen her step up multiple times to a challenge or just in general as a leader among her peers, hearing word of how much she tried to organize her Journeymen RO group awhile back and more. She's helped co-organize competitions for Arcona back in February. This Echani has a fighting spirit, holding on and reluctantly refusing to let go of the club no matter the adversities she faces outside of it. She’s fierce and determined, friendly and welcoming, speaks her mind and leaves her passion open to all. I would like to think that Juli has reminded us the importance of the second half of our mind, the one that feels. It is truly a wonderful thing to have and be bold with.

It has been a long time coming, but entirely worth it. Juliana Kelrune, I am pleased to support your promotion to Knight. Congratulations, Bestsisprentince! I look forward to watching your flame grow and where that light takes you!
