-It is March, and the beginning of 1221. As magi who have recently completed your apprenticeship you are seeking a covenant that will enable you to make your mark on the world. For you, the choice was easy, since you didn't get much of a choice but were instead told that [[stonehenge/Cruentis Petram]] in the [[/Stonehenge]] was the place for you.
