Etzos, ‘The City of Stones’ is a fortress against the encroachment of Immortal domination of Idalos. Founded on the backs of mortals driven to seek their own destiny independent of the Immortals, the city has carved itself out of the very rock of the land. Scourged by terrible wars of extermination, they've begun to grow again, and with an eye toward expansion, optimism is on the rise.

You left the river behind a short while ago now, and see that the approaching forest carpeting the great hill before you has obviously been cleared. In the midst of this wide swath of open ground...
The quiet was something he could never get used to. Well, the lull , he supposed would be more accurate. A city of a million souls, even depleted by nine-tenths, was never quiet . Even if a lot of the noise was ghosts.
There were four sections through which the marrows of the Four-Fold Servant milled about on their patrols, their duties, and their work. The Underground, for the upkeep of the water supplies, keeping it safe and free of tampering. The Outer Perimeter, to patrol and administer...
In the city of Etzos, where the stones wreaked of mystery and the air smelled faintly of conspiracy (with a hint of lavender on odd trials in Saun), there was a study being performed. One Winston (the ferret Cadouri) Miller had taken it upon himself to do some investigation into the...
I freely acknowledge that there are many blanks in the Etzos lore, as far as write-ups of additional locations or protocols go. As players get a grasp of the direction they'd like to go, they will undoubtedly find things missing.
Speckled with twinkling stars, the night sky appeared as a vast tapestry of dark blue silk and shimmering diamonds. Their size only increased their elegant beauty, and contrasted the moons.
The trio of platina-and-red shapes was gaudy by comparison....
A group of people chattered among themselves, rounding a corner into one of the many the cobbled streets of the Commercial Circle. They were small in number, five in total. Three men, two women. None of them sported a wrinkle or a grey hair. Though relaxed, they maintained a...
A pair of women, a pair of sisters, found their way through one of many passages scattered about Etzos, connecting the city to its considerable underground counterpart. Though the route they’d come from was black as pitch, a lightless tunnel winding deep below the city...
Maxine had never been so at peace. Her loose ends hadn't been tied. She hadn't buried any of her many hatchets. It was true some threats had met a final end. She'd also managed to recover someone from a dangerous position but that was...
29 Vhalar 722
Early Morning
Continued from these events.
Tristane watched the light break out over the plains outside the city. His breath blew from his lips and nose in airy wisps of vivid vapor rising toward the sky. His skin beneath his layers of clothing prickled...

16 Vhalar 722
Evening
Following these events.
All the candles burned out. The darkness had swept the room with nightfall, even though the time of trial was imperceptible from Sabrina's room in the underground brothel. The sounds of life outside the locked door...
For some reason, the Inn for Dinner seemed … different today. Off. Wrong.
Oberan strolled in with the chiming of a small bell above the door, only to be assaulted by that feeling. From behind the bar one of the serving girls glanced up from her...
Maxine ran her hands down her face. The morning was a blur. Groggy, she woke up to the opened door of Sabrina's closet. The bedroom was empty but the space itself was in disarray. The bed was stripped of its...
Maxine was snaking through the crowd toward the long, narrow hall when a silhouette approached her briskly. The shadow paused beside her for but a moment, eyes darting to find hers with a coquette smugness that commonly...
Maxine leaned her back against the wall of the dim brothel she spent far too much time in. Dancers, bouncers, and staff accustomed to her presence avoided her as of late. Perhaps it was something to do with her bloodshot, animalistic gaze or...
Tristane's foot bounced on the floor while his right hand scrubbed at his tense brow. The coffee cup he held was half empty but tightly in his other hand. The room had odd lighting, but the shadows weren't responsible for the deep hollows under his...
2 Vhalar 720 | Ulric | Outside A Tavern in the Outer Ring
The two men moved out of the tavern with dark expressions on their face which were only further darkened by the night sky. We don't have to fight. Said the man with the shorter, black hair and a faint goatee of a similar shade. He drew his...
A lump of materialized ectoplasm and memories named Ulric walked down one of the many, many streets in Etzos wearing his misty, ethereal, purple armor- or well, the Beneath. It was Etzos, but it was not. Cast in colorless hues, the Beneath allowed him to move around the...
