An excerpt from the official history textbook of the Human Empire, Year Six.
Despite the failure of the Martial Law policy, Talion continued to implement more restrictive measures in response to the Gold Rush Mission. For example, acting under orders from Alvaās Inferior Council, they placed all residents under house arrest for the duration of every night, and required all residents to publicly submit to a full-body search daily. Additionally, they dispatched a trained mind-reader to Talion.
The latter proved controversial even among Talionās own residents. Fortunately, the foresight of the members of the Gold Rush Mission had led them to plan for such a possibility, and all of them had been equipped with imperceptibly small Brands of Mental Opacity, allowing them to resist such invasions of privacy. However, many of the elves living in Talion had no way to resist such measures.
The disputes came to a head when Kymil, an elven jeweler residing in Talion, announced that he would not submit to mindreading. His speech, given to the entire town, is the origin of the famous quote āMy mind I guard more precious than my life.ā The other residents of Talion, however, assumed that he was a human, and sought to punish him with death. As he fled Talionās angry mob, Kymil ran to the top of the cityās watchtower and destroyed the Mystical Beacon at the top of the tower, which was used to allow visitors to Talion to locate the city. In doing so, he ensured that the mind-reader would not easily be able to complete their journey to Talion.

End of Night 3 Flavor
An excerpt from the most popular history textbook of the Province of Alva, typically used for children between the ages of forty and fifty.
Isylinor Cometchild (2453-2709) was born in Etolia in the Province of Alva. Although she was initially trained as an apprentice printer, she decided in 2579 to move to Talion and retrain as a sculptor. She was responsible for several innovations in magical item creation, most notably the discovery that sapphire inlays could be used as part of metal enchantments in order to increase the durability without compromising the strength of the magical effect.
During the Gold Rush Invasion, Isylinor played a prominent role in coordinating communications with other areas in the Province of Alva. She was able to use enchanted mirrors in order to supplement the other telepathic communication spells in-use. This allowed for more complex messages to be relayed. She was posthumously awarded the Medal of Resourcefulness, one of Alvaās highest honors, for her actions during the crisis.
Unfortunately, her levelheadedness made her a target for the invading humans, causing her to become the fourth elf to be murdered in the night. Every year, on the anniversary of her death, many people visit statue gardens to honor her.
