Editing Campaign:Era of Dreams/Illuminating Sapphire Reflection (section)

=== Contacts ===
'''Magnen Ar Rausse, "The Obsidian Contemplation"'''<br>
An Elder Solar, and a significant force in the Deliberative, Magnen is both a physically and mentally intimidating person. Tall and well built with a dark complexion, thick but neat beard and bushy hair, he is eternally stoic in demeanor. Sapphire sometimes trades her votes to Magnen for his support on political matters, or aid in terms of his influence. She manipulates him all the while as best she can, but she knows it cannot entirely pass him by. For whatever reason, he allows it. All attempts by Sapphire at seducing him in the past have failed; he simply isn't interested in that, not any more. Still, the two share an odd sort of respect; they are unlike, but acknowledge each other's ways and goals to some extent.

'''Three Veils Hides the Melody'''<br>
Acting as Magnen's sidereal advisor, Three Veils never the less spends a great deal of time in Yu-shan. In part, that is why Sapphire sought her confidence. Her elegant features are usually obscured behind one of the veils of her name; the other two being her outwardly cheerful countenance and joyous music. Most think it a reference to revealing hidden joy; actually, it is about hidden melancholy. Three Veils shares information about both the deliberative (what Magnen doesn't know or can't say) and Yu-shan to Sapphire. What she can't share or even admit to herself is that she is in love with Sapphire, but can't bring herself to try forming any sort of serious relationship. She sees herself as something of a burden, and can't quite come to terms with Sapphires methods. The two have eloped several times in creation, and although Sapphire strongly suspects Three Veils yearns for something more then their working relationship or casual sex, she decided to stay silent.

'''Swift Sail's Stride'''<br>
Swift is a Navy Commander in the Western Fleet, young, idealistic, bold and more then a little reckless. He is a invaluable contact for all things regarding the navy, and despite his age, he is still well connected politically. Sapphire and him often trade information and votes, accessing each other's networks of contacts. Since he is often out to sea, Swift relies on her to update him on the action inside the Deliberative. He is a handsome man, and there is a mutual attraction between the two neither would deny, although due to distances and individual commitments, their relationship is constantly in flux.
