Mountains of Feldraza - Southern Anirian Territory "Kress Kid, do you ever get tired?" Edric turned his head, one hand still holding to the cliff wall as he looked at the man behind him. "No." The wind lashed at them, cutting and biting with intrepid cold. It whipped snowflakes into their...

By order of Archon Ronan Osmani, the “Black Knight” and his criminal activities shall end. You are to investigate this vigilante and arrest him. You are charged with the authority to compel witnesses to give testimony and provide evidence under threat of contempt. The sigil delivered with...

The log splintered under the force of a heavy impact; deep cracks racing along its surface. Bark crunched and flew off in ragged chunks. Light splashes sounded out as they met muddy, pockmarked soil. Steam rose from flared nostrils, cast out in waves from heaving lungs. The rain came down in...

Dearest Sable, Do not follow me, for I know you'll want to. You and I, we've been through a lot together. You made me feel safe, and brought me peace. At least, there was peace. I've realized that I'm unimportant, unneeded here at the academy. Really, to anyone. I don't know what I'll do, but...

"Your Occlumency trials have progressed well." Though the dungeons of the Academy had grown a bit emptier and quieter since the Revolution, there were a few chambers still in regular use even now. One such room most all of the students had grown intimately familiar with over their years here...

Castle Aubert - Western Anirian Territory "You're asking?" The words still rang loud in Edric's mind. The flicker of emotion he'd felt when speaking them, the confusion that had drawn over him. "Of course." Had been the Archon's answer. The serenity in his tone almost appeasing the Exiles...

Alven - Near Eaglehead "Whoever built those portal stones." Mieri said as she and the others walked down the dock towards their intended ship. "Did not build enough of them." They had been on the road for nearly a week and a half now. Having set out from the Academy to the Falwood Portal...

Anirian Territory - The Academy Never once in it's five hundred years of history had the Academy been so quiet. There was no training within the yards, no shouting Proctors, no Initiates practicing their magics. It was an eerie, foreboding quiet, the sort which seemed to creep into the very...

Official Invite: Let’s Get Basted! You are invited to Friendsgiving. Midterms sucked so let’s share a meal together. Plus, Proctor Gamble said this counts toward the Socialization credits. Where: Southeast Training Fields When: Sunset What to Bring: Yourself (a side dish to share but not...

ALLIRIA "This isn't an indulgence of your whims, Initiate Pirian," Proctor Magomo said. He stood watching over her, his arms crossed, as she collected her belongings and supplies into her travel pack. "This is a chance for you to make something of yourself." "Yes, Proctor Magomo," Kristen...

When respite from having to maintain a constant output arrived, Elias strode across the room and hunched over a basin to splash his face with water. He was no stranger to the workshop, as Ralene had conceived a method to utilize the celestial flame which he harnessed. It was all rather complex...

Near The Keep - Prepared Stage for the Play 'All's Well' which acted as a reenactment of a Dreadlords tale of battle. (After, at the reception) It was a bit overdramatized. Though, he supposed that was the entire purpose of the thing. A dramatic retelling of Dreadlord's victory from a time long...

Southern End of Bristlewood Forest Outskirts of Vel Estren Early Evening The remainder of the day following the slaughter at manor Krixus had gone by in a blur. Ralene spared very little time and effort for discussion, opting to give Alistair the silent road to contemplate his decision and the...

Lysander looked at the letter, hardly oblivious to the fact that a good chunk of it was, for better or for worst, redacted. He wasn’t sure if the council understood that whether they deemed it important or not, any bit of information would have been valuable to the second level dreadlord. After...

Anirian Territory Olem slowly stood up, frowning for a brief moment at the empty clearing. The ruins scattered all around him had once been a building. There was no sign of overgrowth, no reclamation from the forest. Scorchmarks were still clear upon the stone, and some of the rock appeared as...

Syzemore Osbert had been forced to grow up in the academy of the Dreadlords. Every day his life was filled with torment and suffering. Eventually he was old enough to graduate and it was House Banick that took him in. He lived a few precious months in luxury before the rug was ripped out...

Vel Anir - Vel Aerelos "My Lord?" Mihali stared straight ahead, his expression as blank as marble slate, his eyes unfocused on the thing swinging from the rafters. A dozen sounds echoed around him. Soldiers stepping with heavy leather boots. Wood being moved. The scraping of glass against...

Falstaff! Yes, Proctor Bedrik? The rebels laying to the east, the Al Elzba Settlement. You're to attend a Parley scheduled for tomorrow evening. Peace Talks. Assist with the wounded, should things become distasteful. We will deal with them one way or another. Yes, Proctor Bedrik. Fucking...

Sagarus Sandrun Trade Route - 2 weeks Ride Northwest of Vel Anir Seemed like she'd only just returned from this direction not but a few weeks ago, out on mission with her fellow Initiate Henk to track down an unknown threat. Now she traveled the Sandrun once again, only this time in the...

House Strand had been loyal not just to Sirl but to the entirety of Vel Anir’s old ways. It’s what made the rise of this new republic so grotesque. It’s why many of the other houses profiting from the dwarven caravans that had recently cropped up was so offensive. Some of these houses that...
