New Subforums
So, one of the things that has changed in the new site is that the new PSF is visible to everyone. This provides us an opportunity and so, this morning I've created some subforums in there - for completed / approved threads....

The Biqaj wandered around Cyrene Bay, combing the sands for anything interesting he could sell in the Andarisian markets for a reasonable price. He did not wear the same cheeky smile that he wore like the clothes on his back, no....

Born from a simple pondering the question scratched at the back of his brain, like an itch he couldn’t scratch. A Well could easily be broken into pieces and applied to most anything and still function as though whole. However, could two Wells be turned into a single Conduit? Try...
The sky was awash of red and blue pastels, and through the crack in the curtains Malcolm watched it change colour as the sun came up over the horizon and ascended into the chalky sky. He turned his head on the pillow to look at Elyna as he...
As punishments went, it could be worse. Elyna had thought that maybe she was too old for punishment from her parents, but who was she to argue really? No one, that’s what had got her into all of this in the first place. Etiquette training....
The molten roar of smoke bellowed against flame and filled little Bjorn's lungs, crying out the newborn child his mother had recently died giving birth too screamed to the high heavens. Vakhanor had done the best he could to appease the damned thing, he even put it next to a...
Nivasi hated the first of Ymiden. The quiet of it was eerie, and not being a follower of the Seven, it had no real meaning to her. So she'd gone out on the Bravi'os to fish, fleeing the unnatural, imposed silence. Loathe to return until the first was well and truly over, she'd...
The day had started so well, and then it had turned into a disaster.
But the time the hot-midday sun was risen in the Sky, Elyna approached the gang plank of the ship with caution. Her eyes were ringed red from tears, her...

Malcolm saddled up this mount and headed down the main road towards the docks, veering east before the shore where he knew of a man who was skilled the art of turning one trinket into another. The gelding was getting used to the new pace...
As Malcolm departed. Elyna shamelessly used her horse to support herself as she watched him ride away. With an arm wrapped around the warm neck finally turned her face against it and gathered herself. He was so angry and she was...
When Malcolm woke on the 15th he hadn’t been pleased to find her crumpled on the floor, arms folded on the mattress and face pressed to them as she dozed. They hadn’t had time to discuss it though, because Ronald and Kathryn had knocked...

The wooden cottage was nestled against the trees leading into the Royal Glen, framed by the beautiful mountainous terrain of Venora in the neighbouring region. It was equal distance to the capital and the docks, and situated on a flat...
She kicked up leaves as she stepped back. They twisted in blizzard of reds and golds before settling again, covering her boots to the ankle. They really should have cleared the training grounds before starting their sparring match. As it...
It was funny how the right person could make you feel like you were burning up; from just a look. By the time the Knight Captain, her lover, had left her behind and shut the door behind him, Elyna had thought she’d lose control if he...
Awoke in the early hours of the morning by the whaling sounds of his mother wandering around the house looking for a morning snack, Vakhanor begrudgingly slumped out of his bedroll. Without the money to be able to afford a two bedroom house, Vakhanor had taken to sleeping on the...

The crisp Andaris morning saw a pair of figures trundling down the cobbled streets. Boots clattered upon the ground around them, the unending sounds of the city life blending together in a white noise of background sound. One of these figures was Oscar. The tall brown haired man...
The sea always called to the Biqaj. A liquid refuge, it greeted him like his mother used to, with a joy that could not be expressed with mere words. He always came back to Cyrene Bay, after he'd taken care of Drohian, his steed,...
It has been thirty nine days since Exedian's first lesson in Uleuda and she had been going everyday, learning more and more about her people's culture and that of the Biqaj. The elders had decided to place her in a specialized class solely on Biqaj because of her expressed...

Sleep hadn't come easy and after drifting in and out for the last three hours, Malcolm decided it was time to get up, wash his face and start the day. He was down stairs having breakfast when Vanessa came through the door, flustered, her...
The world of the nobility was so lavish and extraneous that they did not need to have a reason for holding a ball. They never needed a reason to get together, have a huge feast, drink until they were falling out of their shoes, and dance until the following morning. Then they...
It was a strange, listless energy that followed the Skyrider as she boarded the boat again. The hawk watched the world from its cage, fresh bandage around its wing. It was still heavy to carry, but less awkward with the animal behind...
/gallery/image.php?album_id=2&image_id=1597 Everything had to be in place before the letter was sent. Every detail had to planned, expected and perfected. There was no room for mistakes, and if any of them should happen, they had to be covered up quickly. Peake had barely managed to get sleep this...
„Good morning, Lady Burhan“, Tristan cheerfully greeted the statue of Elyna Burhan that stood in the solar of Burhan House, as he had done every morning for about fourty trials. “How are you?” He put the bag with his tools onto the table and rooted through it,...
“So how do you know him?” The guard towered over Elyna, more muscle than brain. His dark hair was shaved close to a head that looked too small for his enormous chest and shoulders. He obviously lifted a lot of weights.
