    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    I love you, Zana… It was the last thought in her mind, even as she stared up at the hazy blur of Isbrand through her one remaining eye, the wave of inevitability robbing her of breath. She forced all pain from her mind, all anger, all fear, focusing on nothing but her maternal bond and the love...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Tears fell from her eyes as she watched Isbrand approach her, the tears of a body exhausted and broken, of realisation that the evil eyes that stared at her were the last she'd ever see. The blood that flowed quickly from her wounds showed no sign of slowing, and her energy was spent. Fingers...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Sloan reached out for anything she could to build her strength, her blood still flowing freely from her wounds, the energy she used - substantial. Her hands splayed by her sides, the fires around her reducing to the charred remains of whatever they'd been feasting on, it was enough to keep...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Anir Square As her own spear stopped dead in the air, Sloan readied herself, gathering her energy as she watched the weapon turn away from it's intended target and point toward her instead. The very air around her rippled with energy as she drew in the heat from the flames, the fires around her...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Anir Square That grin. She'd seen it many times and had always pitied those that the archon had doomed with it. Her expression remained stoic and determined at his threats, and she thought of the countless bodies she'd seen with their eyes plucked from their skulls. Sloan's jaw clenched as she...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Anir Square I'm going to slit your throat personally... "Come down here and do it then!" Sloan growled in exertion as she fought. "Fucking coward." she snarled, but her expression paused and her eyes flared as the massive wave of flame came hurtling toward her. She fell to a knee, as though...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Anir Square Sloan continued her stride, yanking the spear free of the ground as she approached. "Isbrand." she greeted dryly, her gaze narrowing at his taunts. She had been so close to being an Archon, it was true, but that no longer mattered.. "Fortunately my priorities have changed." she...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Anir Square - West Side Sloan lowered Trajan to the ground as his body crumpled, the bloodied blade sliding free of his chest and clattering to the cobbles. The dreadlord knelt, frowning at his pummelled face, his pained expression now peacefully loose with death. She could hear the chaos...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Sloan's dark eyes glared after the men who scuttled away, her head shaking slowly. She had to refrain from helping the man to his feet, but thought better than to dent his pride, and so she waited, her knuckles pale as her fingers squeezed so hard at the dagger housed in her palm that her hand...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Sloan's head bowed at the battered man's words and she dragged a hand across her brow. "Leave him and go." she said firmly to the men, lifting her eyes to them as though daring any protest. "His decision is made, but I won't kill a man without a weapon in his hand." she stood, drawing a long...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Each loyal Dreadlord she slew was a crushing weight, a little more pressure on cracking glass. They were dying for the life they'd known, for being loyal to the houses they'd served, for their duty and oath to obey and protect. Tears blinded her eyes as she cut down the last man attempting to...

    Quest The Revolution of Vel Anir

    Anir Square "Zana!!" Sloan struggled through the streets of the dead and wounded, shoving past the countless other frantic relatives and friends, filled with the same dread that the next dead face they saw would be the one they sought. She staggered with exhaustion to a water barrel, her lungs...

    Private Tales The Final Days

    The Spine.. It was so far. Her chest tightened and she forced a hard smile as she nodded at the answer, trying to keep up that wall around her emotions. She glanced down at the offered hand, her smile softening as she reached somewhat hesitantly to take it. On one hand, she wanted to see the...

    Private Tales The Final Days

    Sloan laughed along with her and nodded.. "Yes, do that.. I'll no doubt need a cushion or two. I'm getting old after all.." she smirked. Zana's question caused her brow to furrow and she sighed deeply in thought.. She'd never considered a life outside of Vel'Anir. She wasn't sure she'd know...
