| The changes she made were slow. So slow we barely noticed. She showed an aptitude for training the new kids, so we let her. But she taught them more than just how to walk quietly and swing a blade. As time went on, she draw a following of the new blood that started to eclipse the rest of the guild.\\ | The changes she made were slow. So slow we barely noticed.

| - | Things hit their peak after she went on a scouting mission into the town of Torch. We were hired to scout the movements of a group of Yugoloths. Raven and two other senior members went. We lost contact with them after that. Half a year went by before we found her. She had been taken prisoner by a group in Torch... the Gray Orb, or something like that... we busted her out of her dungeon and brought her back. She'd been the only survivor. The other had been killed.\\ | + | Things hit their peak after she went on a scouting mission into the town of Torch. We were hired to scout the movements of a group of Yugoloths.

Using her following as backup, she declared that the Rise of the Swift had more potential than just a bunch of drunken revelers in the forests. She declared that she was taking control of the guild and steering it in a new direction. Some tried to oppose her. She had them killed.\\ | We should have been more suspicious of that, in hindsight.

| As the years rolled on, the Swift grew ugly. It left Arborea and moved to the Outlands. It took up slaving, and rumors of demon worship began to swirl. For elves like ourselves we knew the history of the Swift. But for the mortals... the humans, and other short-lived races, the Swift's past faded away. The reputation they enjoy today has overshadowed everything else.// | As the years rolled on, the Swift grew ugly. It left Arborea and moved to the Outlands.
