Hi Drun! It’s me Emi! We managed to rescue Coira. I wasn’t sure about going in and rescuing her because she did a bad thing but Sarenrae told me she deserved redemption, so we went in and helped her. We had to kinda sorta go back in time but not really. We ended up fighting […]
Hey Agatha! Thanks for thinking of me, happy to do this! I’ll get started as soon as I finish this report. Can’t write too much, pretty sure the inn’s on fire. Or about to explode. ANYWAY… I’ve got some information on this guy Syzoth. He was part of a tribe called the Burning Fang, trail […]
Pete, Greetings from sunny Absalom! We’ve had a pretty busy few weeks between research and following up on a lead that Chiro found while we were handling business with the Pharoh of Fangs. Long story short, the job that grew from this lead paid well and lead me to a ethical quandary that I believe […]
Interlude Master Gouken made haste. Crumpled paper in his hand and a dire look on his face. The students knew that something had him on edge, but he would not speak on the matter. Along one of the many halls of the School of the South, Gouken looked for the sign. It had been almost […]
Dear Grand Master Shao, Hello! I hope this letter finds you well, and that I’m not being presumptive in writing it or anything. However, some events have happened that I thought you should be aware of. I’m currently low on paper and ink so I will try to make it quick, but I met (through […]
Dear Master Gouken, We have arrived in Absalom! It is as big as they say, and honestly, even bigger than that. There are more people than I ever imagined packed into one space, and so many different kinds! A few days into our arrival, we found the missing piece to the puzzle of the journal. […]
Dear Master Gouken, I am writing you from the port city of Merab, in Thuvia. It’s been a while since I wrote and I am afraid it may only get more sporadic from here, considering. However, I did want you to know I passed my second test! Master Syzoth said I “would not be able […]
Hi Melda! It’s me Emi! I found this really nice family in Absolom that sell alchemy stuff but their supplier can’t get them the supplies they need to stay in business. I gave them your name and how to get in contact with you (through the Black Sails company) and told them you might be […]
A very large, extremely heavy package arrives addressed to Drun. Inside is a note: Hi Drun! It’s me Emi! Absolom is huge. Like Goka huge. There’s SO much stuff here! I don’t think it’s a well-organized or clean as Goka but it still seems pretty nice. Everyone here is […]
The dark skies began to clear at dawn. Quietly closing his journal, the Nameless Knight made his way out. The streets were silent and not a soul in site. The voices from the night before gnawed at his mind. By the time the knight arrived at the square where he and the elder did battle […]
Trindlewin Stringspin was the best bard this side of Whistledown, or in Lini’s opinion, all of Varisia. Or the entire world. She settled down in the corner of his house, more so a workshop, on a plush chair in the corner and picked up a book on arcane spellcasting. Trindlewin was meticulously polishing and tuning […]
Thirty: Its a very long ways to the School of the Southern Winds, on foot, up a mountain. Get Da’s book of maps he keeps for the caravan to Eto and find one of the area to take with me. “Chiro? Are you listening? You were gazing off into space. For the third time. In […]
Chiro took a breath, and swallowed. Then she looked at Agatha from where she crouched under the table, Veleus in view. They were in position. Now Agatha had to get in range. The Gunslinger gave a cocky little grin and shoved her hat down on her hair, business time mode. She stepped onto the floor […]
Before she was born Emi heard not only the sound of her mother’s heartbeat but also two soft voices in her head – the goddess Daikitsu and the god Abadar. The voices spoke to her in the months before her birth, telling her about the wonders of the world awaiting her. Upon her birth in […]
Later, the two had arrived at the elders home. The exterior was weathered and cracked. Once inside, the elder barred the door shut and checked the port holes in his windows. Books lined one wall with the opposite decorated with armor parts and weapon hooks. The north wall had a small hearth with an iron […]
The bar patrons were dumbstruck. They argued among themselves for a few minutes until a slammed mug on the far table got their attention. “Blast it! If you would look at the man, you would see he is a seasoned warrior!” At the table, a older man in aged chainmail and a ratty tabard took […]
Heading back to the town square, The Nameless Knight started to grow weary. The fatigue weighed on him heavily today. Taking a rest at the public fountain, he looked around. Still, something seemed off. People were smiling and going about their lives as normal, but something was… missing. A feint roll of thunder echoed in […]
As the sun creeped up over the horizon, the knight continued his writing. The voices were quiet today. The only clear words he could make out were “Mortivox” and “Betrayal”. Shutting the journal, the knight looked out from his makeshift shelter in a cliff side. “The rain stopped too.” Breaking down camp, he continued to […]
Every day the visions became a little more clear. The woman… Mortivox was speaking to someone. When the sun went down, the Nameless Knight spent the time writing the most common phrases in his journal. Whoever she was speaking to must have been important. When the voices grew quiet, the knight would meditate. Staring into […]
Dear Master Gouken (and or Grand Master Shao, if she’s there) We are on a ship! The ocean is massive, bigger than I ever would have dreamed. The waves and the salt spray are very enjoyable, and the boat heaves and groans like a living thing in the water, with the crack of sails and […]
Hello, Melda! I hope this letter finds you well. I am not well, honestly. First, the trip here was three weeks. By boat. I think I was seasick the entire time. The good news is, I am now capable of fighting even while throwing up. The bad news is… I threw up a LOT. Do […]
With a silent exhale, Ivran Chronicler completed his meditation. Nearby, he could hear his nephew stir in his cot. Arlen was family, but he was as far from an elf as any human. Elves had no need for sleep, but the boy was also half human. A small sense of remorse creeped its way into […]
Interlude The sound of steel hitting stone echoed throughout the complex. Chronicler Ivran gasped for breath as he awoke on the floor. “Damned thing…” A frantic set of footsteps drew the elf’s attention to the door. “Ivran?! Are you okay?” Arlen shouted. “Yes nephew, I am.” Helping his uncle from the floor, Arlen sighed. “This […]
The knight froze in place. Dragons are known to the mortals, but seldom do they ever reveal themselves. Through out written history, many dragons were named and cataloged. Ulgrath the Vicious, a black dragon of terrible cruelty and might. Worse yet was Tyranus, the Eater of Heroes. Some few were recorded that were benevolent. The […]
Dear Master Gouken, I apologize for the brevity. I’ve been writing this in bits and pieces when we stop for the night as we travel. But I did want to let you know that the School may be getting a visitor, an enigmatic but benevolent man known as Ra-Thos. He is a desert wanderer, and […]
