    Private Tales Home No More [Salak]

    Vel Anir Dreadlord Academy Eastern Wing - 2:24am It had been over a year now, perhaps nearly two, since she'd endured the darkness within the halls of the academy. Though the physical nature of what had been her home since the age of 12 had not changed nearly enough to remark upon, it...

    Completed The Trees Grow Because We Bled Here

    [art cred] The Blackwood. Everleigh didn’t know why she had come back here. In the early morning the air was cold all around her, but there was a deeper chill within her bones. She remembered the walk here. It was months ago now but everything was still fresh in her mind. The cool mist that...

    Completed The Battle of the Banicks

    Lord Theodore Banick, Head of House Banick, passed quietly on his deathbed, and then the struggle for power began. It should have been a smooth succession. Cecil Banick, long speculated to abdicate his ascension to Head of House, did indeed do so. This left Walter Banick, Theodore's second born...

    Fable - Ask Shattered Promises

    https://i.imgur.com/CQn97e1.pngThe Town of Darren - 30 Miles from Vel Anir "Shit ain't changed worth dick." In the Shambling Willow those words were all to common. A rising sentiment of grievance expressed in spurts of anger and distaste that rose to forefront whenever the peasantry was...

    Fable - Ask The Toll

    Kristen fell to her knees. The entirety of her body trembled with exhaustion and depletion, both of a physical and arcane nature. She was spent. Utterly spent. Blood splattered her armor all over, streaked in great brushstrokes across her face, and drenched her hair so thoroughly that the auburn...

    Fate - First Reply Grimm Outlooks

    Snake-Tooth Tavern Vel Anir The city was always a bustling, too much going on for too long. Everyone seemed crazy, no patience as merchants and traders peddled their goods to every hamstrung minor noble in a frock coat - made all the worse that Grimm was eye level with their leather cod pieces...

    Private Tales Some Things Never Change

    Vel Anir - The Gutters Oralie "We seen you walkin' through here with yer fancy clothes and shit, we know you got coin." The tough who spoke was probably no older than seventeen, but his face was marred with a dozen scars. The other two were no better than him, their clothes little more than...

    Private Tales Broken Arrow

    Rain poured down from the heavens. Water saturated the dirt road and turned it into a muddy hell. At an unfortunate crossroad near Viret, a caravan sat trashed and nearly demolished. The guards that escorted the caravan sat as corpses all around. Virak’s banner hung on their chests. Examining...

    Private Tales Sailing West

    An Anirian ship sailed west. The typhoon season had ended, and travel past the Cortosi coast became reliable once more. The ship, dubbed the Dragon Prize, proudly flew the flag of Vel Anir above the House Strand standard. Its destination: a small island on a map with supposedly some treasure...

    Private Tales The Starling and the Bear

    It had just passed a year since his world had fallen apart, though it'd felt like no time at all. He felt no less angry at the world today than he had that day, if anything his bitterness had grown, and there hadn't been a single moment where it hadn't clawed at his chest like an animal intent...

    Private Tales Magic Steeped in Poison

    “You’ll like her.” Marianne said to Everleigh as they walked down the hall together. Marianne’s stomach was swollen, obviously round from pregnancy. Yet the blonde still moved like there wasn’t another human inside her. Of course, she wasn’t at her third trimester just yet. Even then, Everleigh...

    Open Chronicles Family Dinner - House Urahil

    Lyon Urahil sat at the head of the long dining table in his castle, surveying his surroundings with a sense of satisfaction. The table was set with the finest silverware and crystal glasses, and a sumptuous feast had been laid out for his enjoyment. He sipped at a goblet of rich, red wine...
  13. Sibylla

    Fate - First Reply Now what?

    Vel Anir Outskirts "Merde," Sibylla gave a curse, her olive wet face twisting in aggravated displeasure. The annual storms had blown through the region several weeks early, a monsoon of rain and mud causing havoc not only along the Cortosi Coast, but even miles inland, turning wheat fields...

    Dreadlords The Second Domino

    https://i.imgur.com/O4QZYcV.pngVel Arnen What a shitty, tiny, awful little slip of land. An island distant to even the cortosi sea, Vel Arnen was the furthest 'fortress' city of Vel Anir. More of a naval outpost than any hub of trade or commerce, the city had come up as a necessity to the...

    Fate - First Reply A Theft

    VEL ANIR The sun shined brightly above Vel Anir. The markets bustled with activity. Off in one alleyway from a marketplace, a curiosity developed. Or was ending, potentially. BAM BAM BAM In this otherwise empty corner of the city, Kyros stood over a lanky man. BAM And punched him. BWAM...

    Fate - First Reply A Short Walk

    https://i.imgur.com/CQn97e1.pngVel Anir - Outer City Amos set down the small box that he had been carrying, a cough wracking his lungs. Hand quickly snapping up to cover his mouth. The sound of his sickness echoing through the nearly empty streets. One or two people briefly glanced at him as...

    Fate - First Reply Siege at Benhaven

    It was supposed to be simple supply drop-off. Benhaven was a small fort between Vel Cirak and Viret. A place staged to offer reinforcements if Vel Cirak was ever in dire need. A place to hold closer supplies. What was supposed to be simple mission to drop supplies off at Fort Benhaven...

    Private Tales Misappropriation

    Vel Zaphris - Kaeden and Amos' Workshop "Your sister?" Amos said with a frown, pausing as he stopped in what he was doing. Flipping the small magnifying glass attached to his spectacles upward. On the table in front of him sat a massive block of metal. It had been intricately milled and...

    Private Tales Relentless

    [art cred] Lately, it seemed Vel Anir was trying to show off how there was no issues between the Kingdom and the Falwood. Now, anyone with more than three brain cells knew better. From the Brotherhood to the skirmishes along the border, it seemed Vel Anir and Falwood were still giving one...

    Fate - First Reply The Pit Inside Olives

    It had been a long time since Zaire Glaive had been back home. Vel Ehn wasn’t close to the Academy whatsoever, and he knew it had been both his mother and father that had pulled all the strings they had to get their son back home, if only for a few days to participate in the Olive Festival. The...
