Testimonial of Dadtim the Younger

From Sourcebook Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

The first of the Testimonials, and one of two written before Alexandria's final battle. Dadtim the Younger was one of the orphans of Tragidore and Alexandria's closest friend. It speaks little of their early life together, but gives a detailed account of the razing of Tragidore as well as the first half of the Crusade, before Alexandria left for the West. There is nothing of the ten years of her Pilgrimage to the West, but he does write scantily of the final mustering of Alexandria's Horde, during which time he was writing the account.

Written as it was before the inception of the church, the Testimonial of Dadtim the Younger is the one of the only Testimonials that spends any time focusing on Alexandria as a person, and it is from this account that most knowledge of Her personality and temperament can be found. Unlike the other Testimonials, it is written in a personal, almost diary-like style, and it is unclear that Dadtim the Younger ever meant it to be released to the wider public.

As Dadtim the Younger was killed during the assault on the Kingdom of Shadow, it gives no account of the last stages of the Crusade.
