    Open Chronicles To Return to Malakath

    Dana hung back when the first creature struck. It's not that she feared fighting, but she was quite certain the others could handle it without her. There wasn't much aid she could lend against a creature that large anyways with only her staff. When the next wave of them appeared however, she...

    Open Chronicles To Return to Malakath

    Dana's journeys had brought her many places throughout Arethil, all in the pursuit of rediscovering lost knowledge in service to Metisa. Some called it counterintuitive and suggested that a servant of the Goddess of Wisdom and Progress should focus on the future, instead of the past. But she and...

    Private Tales Secrets of the Shadows

    Dana raised an eyebrow. "The words of someone who's seen things from another. I don't mean to imply that there aren't lingering problems, but things are better than they were months ago." She slowed her horse to a near halt when they reached the gate. Which were soon opened for them, or rather...

    Private Tales Secrets of the Shadows

    Dana smiled at the children when she saw them. It took a second for her to realize Vale was entertaining them. Perhaps because that’s the last thing she could picture any Dreadlord doing. Let alone the one she’d met earlier that day. She supposed she shouldn’t be surprised; despite their...

    Private Tales Secrets of the Shadows

    Dana raised an eyebrow. How cryptic, any remaining doubts she had about whether he served Eleth were now gone. Still, he, strangely enough, didn’t seem to be trying to intimidate her. Which can only mean there might be something more to what he said. “My, how creative. I wonder who else...

    Private Tales Secrets of the Shadows

    Dana huffed when she saw Vale smirk. Though she supposed she shouldn’t complain, given that’s the most of a reaction she’s seen from him so far, save for when he saw his horse. She pulled herself onto the provided horse and nudged it into a walk, overtaking the Dreadlord so she could lead the...

    Private Tales Secrets of the Shadows

    Dana continued exchanging words with Talgin and Hubert, satisfying their curiosity and proving her knowledge on the subject. Lest they think she some overzealous fool with no real expertise. But while she talked, she took careful note of the way Vale stared at her map. Clearly, there was...

    Private Tales Secrets of the Shadows

    Dana drew her map out of her satchel and unrolled it so they could all see. The location was a ways south of Vel Anir, but still within their territory. Which meant there wasn't any political reason for them to ignore it, not that she was convinced they'd care if they did trespass on foreign...

    Dana smiled politely at the boy. "Of course, please, lead the way." She followed him inside, keeping her smile perfectly fixed in place as she approached the three officials. While she may not be thrilled to be there, there wasn't any benefit in making enemies now that she was. She stopped when...

    Private Tales Secrets of the Shadows

    Eleth the Unknowable, his influence always vexed Dana. Whereas her patron brings knowledge and illumination, he brought only confusion and lies. It made her work as a historian and priestess that much harder. But even he wasn't beyond reproach, in the end, whether he be legend, dark one, or...

    Private Tales Traversing the Lost

    Dana listened carefully to Tinus’ tale. She wasn’t surprised by the morbidity of it, many cultures, including Vel Anir, had such stories. What did surprise her is that it was the favorite of someone like Tinus, with how upbeat he acted she’d have assumed his favorite story would be a little more...

    Private Tales Traversing the Lost

    Dana popped a candy into her mouth as he spoke. Briefly distracted by the sweet taste, she could see why he coveted these treats so. She wasn’t surprised when he mentioned that they spun stories about their ancestors. She had heard that Kel revered them greatly. “I see. And what’s your favorite...

    Private Tales The Broken City

    Dana stopped and reached for her staff when Ander’s froze. Sweeping her gaze over her surroundings, expecting to see what’d alarmed him. She frowned and relaxed her grip when she realized there wasn’t anything there. She turned back to the elf and whispered. “What’s wrong?” She pursed her lips...

    Private Tales Traversing the Lost

    Dana sighed. “The priests of my order don’t abstain from sex because we view it as shameful. We do it as a sacrifice and act of devotion. Arethil’s not suffering from a lack of population.” She took a deep breath before stepping up to the counter. Doing her best to put her annoyance at the...

    Private Tales The Broken City

    Dana took two careful steps in the direction of the sounds and squinted. But couldn’t see anything ahead of her. Likely around a corner or hidden behind a wall. Frustrating, as it meant she couldn’t get a proper read on the situation. She glanced at Ander to find him looking her way...
