Sorry

Tathra knew himself better than to stay on the ground after the events of last night. He needed the cooling sky beneath him and the warming sun above. As soon as Na’ill and himself were fully packed and ready to depart, he took to the skies. It was a rather unceremonious event, his wings...

As Tathra made ready the beginning of his day, it became clear to him the relaxed nature of this caravan, as though the previous night had not been an indication. This would be good. No doubt the travel time would put them past the turning of the greater moon. Their relaxed nature would prove a...

Tathra was somewhat surprised at the ease of his new work being acquired. Tzuriel seemed a touch beside himself and not at all well. The Raaka wizard thought to offer aid for his health, but then thought better of it. He didn’t know the man, and this could just be his normal disposition...

The rune, completed now and empowered by Teodron, flared to life. Despite the complexity of the runes, the young half-Dwarf found the runes surprisingly easy to empower and maintain. Their complex forms took a fair amount of knowledge to use correctly, but they enabled such an easy flow of magic...

On closer inspection after he found his stomach, Teodron noticed a handful of details that were lost on a cursory scan of the area. The first was the nature of the rune in the center of the intersection. It was a rune that he was somewhat familiar with, having seen Tathra and other maesters use...

Tathra was quick to rise in the morning, the pounding in his head subsiding with his morning rituals. Unfortunately there had been a fair amount of coin spent last night. He only hoped now that he and Na’ill could get to speak to the caravan leader. And as he stepped down the stairs and into the...

Tathra finished gathering the components he thought he would need, then folded up the map. But just as he was about to put it in his satchel, he hesitated. He cast a potent ward about it, separate from his satchel, and then tucked it into his wrap. This was a delicate situation, and he decided...

“Whoa...whoa...I didn’t flinch.” Tathra staggered against Mak and Sledge. “I winced. There’s a difference. One is from fear, the other was from spell fatigue. You two really don’t hold your punches.” Rubbing his temples, he took another swig from a mug, spilling ale all over his front. It...

"I've kept a record of my time here as best I can, and maps of any accuracy are worth far more than many tomes on magic theory. In regards to the darker magics, I daresay I'm sure that there are practitioners at the College today. They weren't always forbidden here, and not all who practice give...

Tathra sighed. He was barely old enough by his people's standards to be an adult, and yet he found himself leading a counter to the exploiters of the College. He had though it a great achievement for one a young as he to make it into the Third Order of Maesters, and it was, but command was...

Well, that went about as well as it could. Tathra was more than willing to ingratiate himself with the crew of the caravan, but a brawl could potentially draw out the bear. He was fairly certain he'd have been able to keep it in line, but there was always the chance. He went over to the table...

Professor. A title he had never truly acquired a taste for in all of his years here. Having only recently made it through the grueling process of becoming a Maester of the Third Order, Tathra was only a short decade into his career as a professor, if it could be called a career. Of course he...

Quoril, Mind if I post?

Silence. In the halls of the College of Elbion, students normally came and went according to their studies or the whims of a faculty member. Today, the regular shuffles of the passing students were not to be heard in the halls. Not that students weren’t coming and going, nor faculty attempting...
