Cool dew dripped from the tall grass around the fox-eared letai. Cold air rose from the ground beneath her causing her lithe frame to shiver from her toes to her teeth. After walking for many hours in the cold air, Demolly found herself exiting a thick forest into a large field. As her...

"Can I help you?" Theo stood with pan in hand. A fire raging in its cooking pit in front of him. Chopped veggies and meat flipped as a large brute in hardened leather with a club on his side stood next to a more lithe man with charcoal hair watched slightly annoyed. A chubby raccoon making...

THE SPINE CITY OF LIGHTWOOD THE DEVIL COMES FROM BELOW They said they came from here- they, being the village elders that had put up the notice all over the Spine for assistance. The dead were plaguing Lightwood, feasting on their game, cutting trees. Very peculiar for the undead to do. The...

There is a hooded figure, stalking the woods. The dense forests shroud her from truly being discovered. Vague reports rumour of finding arrows of thorns, and roots sprouting in the stranger's wake. Wild animals flock whenever she appears beyond the thickengg

Lisica gasped for air as she ran through the dark woods. Her two-sister unconscious in her arms as she carried them far away from their home. Yelling could be heard not far behind, causing Lisica to pick up the pace. Her legs aching and lounges burning. But she paid it no mind. She needed to get...

Journeying across seas and continents takes time. Two years in fact of walking, riding, boating and sometimes climbing. It didn't bother Arbok much though. For her the journey was the destination most of the time. Not today however. Today her destination was a small town named Glibshire. Where...

The wagon train had come to rest along a woodland road. Caravanners made ready the camp, and Garrod hopped off the wagon, armored up as he was. He stretched, this way and that, and his cuirass rattled with his movement. "Think I saw a beach down the eastern side of the trail," he said as he...

For the past few weeks there had been a series of thefts in Alliria. The only items that were stolen were high class paintings meant to be sold to Annuakat nobility and merchants. The local merchants of Alliria grew more and more nervous by the day and the wealthier ones increased security...

In the Inn of Leaky Tears, said to be in the city of Elbion, there were rumors of a skeleton wearing a black shroud walking around the city with a long scythe in his hands. Multiple travelers and residents have reported his appearance being in Residential District. Officials have not stated on...

Roselake, South of The Spine Allir Reach He arrived two days ago, and had solved a recent lake monster problem. A few fisherman had fallen victim to a shallow water Krakarl. The head placed on a pike near the water was put their by a local priest, as a reminder to the other sea monsters that...

The journey from the Astenvale Monastery to the Spine, the land of his forebears and the place he had once called home, was an arduous one. The woods at the base of his rugged homelands were full of Orchish tribes, and only few of these were welcoming to a Goliath such as he. Taking care of the...

Dark clouds roiled and thunder boomed in the distance in the skies above the Allirian cityscape, casting a dark shadow over the inhabitants and drenching them with a sudden torrent of rain, the moisture glistening on the cobbled streets as excess water flowed into storm drains. Behind a home...

Ierin, North of Belgrath Theme Arnor's venture to the tundra was short-lived. After all, he was a nomad and a mercenary by trade. That and what he wanted- he couldn't really have. At least, not to himself. His people's ways be damned. He put aside such thoughts for the task at hand- namely...

A loud bang, like a door being slammed shut. Kristen would awake, a touch groggy, but immediately she would take in her surroundings. The room was square, sparse, and dark, save for a sole lantern which hung above the table where she was sat and out of reach. Sat across from her was another...

((OOC: Feel free to join, might keep it to 3/4 characters to keep it a little simple!)) Flint's eyes shot open, his senses assaulted by all that surrounded him. It was as though he'd had just woken up from a deep sleep, yet had somehow become instantly alert. No, he hadn't been sleeping. The...

It was a day just like any other in Alliria. The city bustling with activity slowly went to sleep as darkness fell. That night in the outer city, a local drunk was making his way home from the tavern. He'd just had a fight with some thug and got kicked out, without having got drunk enough. As he...

The forest outside Snowmelt... Luna guided her horse to a stop at the side of the path and swept her gaze through the nearby forest but caught neither hide nor hair of their quarry. If it indeed existed in the manner the rumors stated. She had to admit, she very much doubted their accuracy...

Thunder clouds rolled across the sky pulled by the Goddess Neket and her four strong slate grey horses. If the myths were to be believed it was the force of their hooves hitting the sky with such speed that caused the flashes of brilliant light that illuminated the clouds from within. A single...

This art belongs to me, please do not use without permission Raea was never fond of crowds. It wasn’t that she didn’t like people—no. She loved people, for all their complexities. People did not like her very much, she decided. She was a strange, golden-eyed girl. Too pretty to be beautiful...

Fallowed fields were rummaged through by famished pigs and cows with scars upon their flanks. Barely a crop was left intact as if the farmers left in a hurry. Even the forests in the distance, far beyond the arable land appeared dull and lifelessly brown, barely able to hide a looming keep that...
