The envelope was light, thin, hinting at very short piece of correspondence indeed. However, the seal was recognisable, as was the writing on the envelope so she knew that short as it was, it was important and an ominous sign indeed. Her...

Zi'Da 13, Arc of 717

Her mind kept going back to the argument/conversation she'd had with Zane when she'd first moved in with him. As a companion, not a slave or anything like that. The things she said to him. Concerned her to be honest. She'd never been that open to anyone before. Even herself!...

It was a hard, cold rain that drove the Skyrider into the shelter of the Olde Inn. Dressed in woollen leggings, a tunic, jerkin and cloak she stood trying to shake off the worst of the water. It was a bleak day, grey swollen clouds showed...

25th Ashan, 717

They needed to be heading back to Warrick soon. Lei'lira longed for the peace of her farm, and even if she wasn't feeling homesick, there was always so much work that needed to be done. Especially in Ashan. Every trial...even every...

Ashan 75, Arc 704
”Jon, watch out!”

“Wha—? Shi—!”

The warning came too late. The Knight’s boot swiftly kicked the boy’s feet out from under him and for a moment he was weightless, parallel with the ground. But that was quickly over too, and then all Jonathan saw was blue sky and fat clouds. He...

Cylus 3rd, 718, Late afternoon, Dark, recent snow

Torqin smiled and waved at the merchants he'd traveled with from the docks. The carts and such disappeared down a small turn off into mid-town. They were friendly guys, he'd been on the ship with them from the Eastern Settlements. The Lotharro man...

“Some people find solace in helplessness. As if by knowing there is nothing they can do to change an event, it frees them of the responsibility to try. Then there’s the storytellers. Long after the peaceful folk throw up their hands and let what comes...

Zi'da 72, 717

Just a little more to the left, Halit.

Really, are you sure? The Biqaj grunted, straining with his end of the piano as they made their way up the stairs, I don't want to hit the railing and—

Sarding listen to me, se'qa t. I can see from here. The northern noble hissed from...

Ashan 111, 506 - Age 15

Torqin sat upon the blonde colored mare, the calmest of the stable's horses. Her name was Honeymead . She didn't have a private owner like many of the horses here. She was owned by the stables themselves, and was often used to get children used to riding horses. And not...

45th of Zi'da, 717

Nathaniel was still incredibly raw from his encounter with the Baird widow and her two young children. Even the lighter feel of his purse was not as concerning as the tears that had streamed down her face. The baby had been...

82nd of Zi'da, arc 717
Following this
The keys, the prison doors, the guards, his sword, everything was lining up perfectly. Zane could see his mission, and how to accomplish it. It was clear before his eyes. He was like an eagle, spotting a snake in the grass, ready to dive in and snatch it in...

Vhalar 20, 717
The House of Roses, Andaris

Be the good son, he'd said. Go and find the Endor, he'd said. Nathaniel Endor, to be exact, Baron Frederick's letter had read to Caius, detailing the trials the Bearchild would be in Andaris for various reasons his father chose not to go into detail...

5 Cylus 714
Cylus was genuinely a blessing. Many people disliked the perpetual night of the short season but for those who had dealings that might be frowned upon, the darkness was a godsend. It wasn't as if she was doing anything illegal, undertaking some sinister deal in some dim back alley or...

70th Zi'da, 717 Continued from here.

She watched him watch her, his eyes catching at her every curve and her smile grew wider.

I know who you are , Alice said, admiring his tangle. A delicate wisp of curiosity, bright and golden; touching it, she strummed. The strands, spun fire and shinning,...

24th Zi’da, 717, Second Break Past Midnight

It was a beautiful crisp and clear winters night, the moon shining bright like a huge beacon in the starry sky. Given the hour, most people were asleep, most proper people that was. Caius would be awake, working in the gazette, printing and such. The...

Zi'da 70 717, Late Afternoon
Location: Andaris, The Docks

She'd just arrived at the docks a while ago and made her way off the ship, already curious as to what antics Andaris had waiting for her to discover. The kingdom of Rynmere was a new but welcome change given her expenditure overseas, even...

56th Ashan, 705, Morning

Darcyanna leaned forward in her seat, small hands curled around the window frame as she grinned and looked out at the scenery passing by. The landscape had been beautiful, a mix of grassy green rolling hills and slate stone rockfaces. Fresh breezes carrying scents both...

89 Zi'da 717

I can do it, growled Oliver, his tone low and guttural. Gustauv stood outside the door of the carriage, arm outstretched to help the injured noble from the cab, but Oliver slapped away his strong and steady hand. Instead, a paper white hand gripped the side of the carriage, and if...

Cylus 18 718, Mid
Location: Ye Olde Inn

Kayleigh had gotten out of bed that morning determined to get a little bit of practice in, not with her sword but this time with the strings of her lute she'd brought along. It was strange actually. She'd bought the instrument several seasons ago, yet not...

81st of Zi'da, arc 717
It had been a peaceful trial, probably the most peaceful in a while. Zane had guard duty, and (un)fortunately, nothing crazy was happening. All of the excitement seemed to have died down as the season was coming to an end and the trial when the sun would no longer shine...

Cylus 718

Late in Zi'da, a proclamation was made at the Port of Etzos: The Prince of Eternal Mercies is now wanted by the Sons of Justice, a new formed Faction in Foster's Landing. At first none believed the huge reward total, but after confirmation from the Etzori state, the bounty has been...

KING OF HEARTS - 34th SAUN 717

Noble marriages were rare occurrences, Royal ones even more so. For most, they came only once in a lifetime, yet this was the second time Cassander would be saying his vows. Normally, the commoners would have deemed...

She and Xander had briefly discussed the need to get Ala'ni a new tutor. Someone who would be able to help with the appropriate raising of a noble child in a noble family. She and Xander were Baron and Baroness, first in line to be...
