Sparring, was there anything quite like it?
Not only was it a valuable exercise to hone combat skills—the entire cause of their existence—but it was also one of the best methods of releasing pent-up frustration, perfect, given that Marcia was the spirit of frustration poured into a five-foot...
There was theft afoot.
Well, that was Marcia's running theory after angrily searching for her compact mirror for four entire seconds with the patience of a Proctor five minutes before lunch. She could have sworn that she had placed it on the bench a few minutes ago before re-lacing her boots...
She was in a box.
Not a metaphorical box that might have signified particular walls or barriers put in place that might have reflected poorly on her as a person, but an actual fucking metal box, locked with a padlock and located in one of the Academy's storage rooms alongside training dummies...
VEL NUMERA
"Mayor Caspian."
"My Lady," said the same, bowing before her. "You summoned me?"
Kristen sat presently in the office chambers of the Pirian Manor. And though she now was the Lady of Vel Numera, some heavy memories accompanied this very room, this very seat. Ill memories. Her...
Vittoria was entirely too used to waiting in the wings.
She was always a last resort, expected to stand aside and be witness to the incompetence of those before her when all the while, Initiate Larrainth was someone capable of securing a fast win. The girl was a walking devastation. An ending...

No brighter sun, no fairer sky, could Kristen ask for on this day of fateful return. The country air was refreshing, cool to the skin and invigorating to the heart. Sparse clouds gave large deference to the sun, and they marred little the sea of afternoon blue in their drifting...
Cortos - Free City of Valeera
Adira
Cenric sat quietly upon the raised balcony on the upper levels of the Lilac Theater, and also in the pit, and behind the stage in one of the dressing rooms.
Three of his bodies were present in this city, though only the one sitting on the Balcony was of any...
A storm would roll in through this seaside city in what looked to be two days time, but as Hayes stood on the parapet and looked to the thrashing waves below, she knew the storm would not ruin this momentous night. Not when the little magic that treacled down the line of the Dorfarens, the...

The cold of the north had truly settled over the last few days. An incessant bite and chill that seemed to reach into ones very bones.
Luthen loved it.
For years he had languished in a cell scorched by the sun. Even at night the...

This wasn't the first time he'd been to Deliv, and it probably wasn't going to be the last.
The city was a crossroad of all sorts...
If Vel Anir's academy was the harshest place in the world, then Torrith was a close second. Only recently had it become what could be honestly called a settlement, and even more recently something marginally "safe." Even with the walls built, the bridges guarded, and supplies barely...
Livia showed her nerves easily as she sat and waited for the representative of the Republic.
She had a shit time getting sleep the night before, did not have much of an appetite this morning, and now, she was forced to drink some tea to 'calm her nerves' at Cenric's insistence. Quinnick could...
There was nothing out here for him to punch without magic, but for days now; no, weeks, Rhidian had been filtering a rage he only felt when he came into possession of his magic. Krixus had helped him understand then, had been the one to help start him controlling and honing his magic that...
Long days were becoming more and more regular now that Zinnia had graduated and been assigned a level. Such was to be expected; it was her duty as a Dreadlord to fight and serve on behalf of her country. What was less expected was the odd nature of some missions. While Proctor Salak had...
The days leading up to Zephyrine's birthday party had been busy for Victoria. She and Silas had been tasked on a mission, and unfortunately for Thraah, the party would have to be missed. She had busied herself preparing, and pestering Silas constantly as she excitably told him how much she was...
Anirian Outskirts - Orren Manor
"Rebellions." Crimson freckles speckled Erodin's face as he stood above the Lady Orren, the blade in his hand steadily dripping blood upon the rich carpets of the ostentatious estate he found himself in. "In my experience, at least."
The Dreadlord said as he...
Kortes - Island of Cortell

"Three targets." Erodin said simply, pointing to the map laying on the central table within the hovel they would call a home for the next three weeks. The Dreadlord's expression utterly deadpan and without a hint of amusement as he...
Aniria - Wildlands
Three tests.
A few years ago, it had only been one. Luthen wasn't entirely sure how he felt about a lot of the changes in Vel Anir. A decade and a half was a long time to miss, and his return had been marked by a whirlwind of differences that he was still struggling to...
*Tack tack tack*
Salak's cane announced him as he and Alistair entered the theatre. It was a pleasant and well lit space with high ceiling and marble floors. The House of Masks was where a great many shows were held and troupes often competed for the privilege of performing in the space...
The Free City of Istanfol
Between Vel Anir and Cortos
Istanport
So far as free cities went, Istanfol was one of the most robust and well-maintained. Not that Kilien would really know the difference, but that did not stop the surprise upon seeing a mixture of cultures and nationalities all in...
