A year ago, we announced that Amy had stepped down as our Chieftain. Today, we are sharing that Wolf Tree Kindred and Amy Bernard have formally ended their relationship.
She took actions that broke frith with another member of the kindred and later, in defense of her actions, sent messages that disclaimed her kinship responsibilities to him. After this, schyld was set by the wronged party and she agreed to it. Despite having been given a year to meet her obligation, she made no attempt to repair the damage. Additionally, she caused further harm to other members of the kindred and the kindred as a whole. In her final meeting with the Thule she stated that she is both unable and unwilling to pay the schyld she agreed to and was choosing to separate from the kindred instead of repairing frith and the kinbonds that were damaged.
As such, Amy Bernard no longer has any association with Wolf Tree Kindred. We do not speak for her nor can she speak for us. If she was your primary contact for our kindred or if you believe you should seek additional details regarding this separation, you can message the page or one of the remaining leaders (Amber Walton, Thule, or Bronwyn Thompson, Gythia) to discuss things.
