	Cue_0008 (8996c88c66203e84599d934acf7c1f2f)		AnswersList_0006	Annamede Belavarah	"You could have easily asked any of my admirers who Annamede Belavarah is. That'd be about three quarters of Pitax — and the rest are all my haters, ha ha! You don't get to be the best among a city of poets and musicians without gathering a few enemies along the way. But why should I concern myself with hacks and soreheads?"

	Cue_0017 (f4ec6c237d356f4498157068c1509d6f)		Cue_0022	Annamede Belavarah	Annamede's face darkens for a moment, but she quickly regains her sweet smile. "Love him or hate him, you can't deny he's a great man! Pitax was a boring place before him — only pirates, fences, and other scum did any business in the area. But then King Irovetti came and turned it into the cultural capital of the region! With him in charge, the arts have flourished, and the city's been filled with songs, paintings, and statues. I just pray that Calistria breathes the same love of the arts into the withered hearts of some of the other rulers in the region, who'd prefer to squander their resources on saber rattling!"

Any successful person gets haters spreading dirty rumors about them. You should hear the things they say about me, ha ha! Pay it no mind. Our king is a man of exquisite taste, with appreciation for all kinds of art!"

	Cue_0024 (60b9d4004dfa7ef4c84d3c7189e25fba)		AnswersList_0006	Annamede Belavarah	"Of course he has enemies. Lots of them — just like anyone who's actually accomplished anything in life! Take some of the old trade houses, for example — Liacenza and some others, whom he stripped of their power. They'd love to see him at the bottom of the river, but even now, in their mutual sorry states, they can't manage to work together! There's also Irsei Caelysse, Captain of the Guard — he was just seething with indignation when the king brought new rules to the city. But who wants to listen to the whining of failures like them? Irovetti brought a golden age on Pitax!"

	Cue_0028 (319dc1891b2db0a4faa47cc60a2e5bca)		AnswersList_0006	Annamede Belavarah	Annamede purses her lips for a moment, then replies slowly, choosing her words carefully. "I'd prefer not to discuss the private life of His Highness with strangers, much less my own. The details of any interactions between us will remain just that — between us. Let's please discuss another topic."

Guests from all over the River Kingdoms come for it, from Daggermark to Mivon! It's a pity Brevoy didn't honor us with any representatives this year — I guess the Aldori aren't in a very festive mood right now... On the bright side, we get to host you for the first time! And Calistria willing, it won't be the last!"

	Cue_0012 (aa0fc419ffe425b4d90ad3e2347e89eb)		AnswersList_0006	Annamede Belavarah	"That depends on what you're looking for. If you're in the mood for pleasant company, well, you've already met me! And if you're in the mood for some schadenfreude, you could listen to the whining of Gasperre Liacenza — his family lost the Pitaxian crown in a card game. Or maybe Atalia Gitaren, the Headmaster of the Academy, who seems to think her skill at bureaucracy makes her a good bard... And if thrills are what you're after — especially the 'shivers down your spine' kind — try speaking with Kharne Vereel, head of the thieves' guild."

I'd bet it was something like a poem in six verses recounting the tale of a tyrant ousting a poor but honest scientist for telling the truth. The reality is much more mundane. Irovetti didn't fire Eobald — Atalia did. And I have to give it to her — this time, unlike most times, she was completely right."

	Cue_0047 (a8484a52879d51d418e558110284bd4e)		Cue_0049	Annamede Belavarah	"Well... Eobald is a very fine teacher, of course, but he pays too much attention to how his favorite students perform in class, and not enough to their... extracurricular activities. Why worry if they steal a trinket here or there, or maybe rough someone up on occasion, so long as their poetry and music are exemplary? Predictably, this led to a sad end — what was supposed to be just another innocent joke from one of his favorites, Alondi, led to someone's death. It was an accident, certainly — the kids just underestimated their own strength."

And as always, Eobald went to stand up for them... but this time, he discovered that her patience was not boundless. She blamed him, said that he'd let his troublemakers run wild, so he could get out of the Academy along with them. She told him she won't tolerate any more bullying, even if it's coming from 'genius' students. I understand it's odd to hear 'won't tolerate' from Atalia Gitaren, but that's what really happened."

Or, failing that, he at least wanted to keep him from going to you. Eobald the Insightful is a prominent name. Of course Irovetti would want the teacher serving him, rather than his neighbors!"
