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....

On the thirty-third trial of Ymiden in the 713 arc...
Curiosity had, as it always seemed to, gotten the better of him. When he'd seen the young men exit the tavern, his gaze had caught on the clear panic that had been plastered to the sweaty visage of the group's lagging fourth. It had been a...
The time had finally come to announce the the wedding to the world and of course, in true style of his mother, it had to be done through a party. So the guests had been invited to the Northern Krome house to take part in festivities...
It had been a testing if not eventful trip on the way to Fort Venora, Kayleigh had spent the last part of her Cylus getting here with a farmer. The two had developed a much in depth trust in one another, after their survival with the encounter of...
/gallery/image.php?album_id=177&image_id=9760 Ashan 13 718; Late Afternoon
Location: The Road to Andaris
Her time in Venora's lands were interesting while she remained there however hardly effective, as her search there hardly turned up anything beneficial in all honesty. She hadn't made it...
S’cuse me, young man? Like lighting, the woman’s calloused hand caught Doran’s arm in an impressive, vice-like grip. Her smile was kindly, but there was such an insistence in her voice that her next question was more of a command than anything else....

Norr Bay - Duchy of Endor
Blood, sweat, and tears. Those were the elements, if one could call them such, that the Outpost of Norr Bay was built on. Of course most ten arc old boys wouldn't care about such legend, or...
Water bounced its merry way down the slippery face of wall of rock, splashing into the clear, rippling water of the lake the below. The swimming hole was one that, during the warmer cycles, often saw many a visitor seeking to cool the skin or relax upon...
Sunshine had left behind verdant fields and pastures in its wake. While the weather had warmed and left the air pleasant, if not a bit thick with the pollen and cotton fibers that drifted through it, the ground itself had yet to lose its moisture. It was,...
Sinna was starting to get frustrated, because she couldn't tell Zane that she was thinking of going to live with Oliver. The prospect of being of use... or actually realizing a dream was too enticing, and now that she's heard that Oliver's been hurt on the rumor mill, she...
On the fifty third day of Ymiden in the 712th arc... To both his relief and chagrin, it was revealed to him that Hidi Loris' home was not but a handful of bits to the north. It was close enough that he had no doubt the residents of the neatly kept home had had little difficulty in listening to the...
On the fifty third day of Ymiden in the 712th arc.
Darkness had always carried with it an uncertainty, a suggestion that, perhaps, one should be afraid, for one never knew precisely what was swathed in shadow. That night, after they'd finally left him to his thoughts and empty, silent home, he...
The one seventy-second trial of Vhalar in the 716th arc.
Crowds were not common when it came to his performances. If anything, it tended to be one or two young women who seemed to watch him more out of carnal desire than any real interest in what it was he was actually doing. Good sports as they...
The long ride to Venora wasn't difficult per say, but spending eight to ten breaks in the saddle at a time was tiring for both horse and rider. Especially when one wasn't used to it. Lei'lira felt an uncomfortable soreness in her legs...
8th of Cylus, in the 718th Arc
One thing about Cylus that she always hated. Flying in the dark was a pain. She couldn't wait a whole season though, she'd already wasted so much time. By this time Oliver might have even forgotten about his proposal to her. Though something in her heart hoped this...
Vincent had left his 'friend' Jack behind in Andaris, a few weeks walk to the south. A quick shave of his wispy beard removed one identifying mark. Second, having let his hair grow out a few inches on top allowed him to evade yet another. It granted...

Between the Roses
47th of Zi’da, Arc 717
Bellesoir was an exquisitely charming barony. Everywhere she turned, a colorful range of flowers always greeted her. On the fields, in small pots at the front of each house. Florists lined the streets,...
VII TAKING OF THE GUARD
15 CYLUS 718 | VENORA (BELLESOIR)
Three little sausags sizzling in a pan, one went pop, and the others went BANG!
The break was early, or late, depending on when one awoke during a trial. The darkness, ever consuming and ever perpetual in Cylus blanketed the baronies...

The Unknown
18th of Cylus, Arc 718
The Lady Krome had done a lot of convincing for her to be seated in a carriage that was slowly rolling towards her home. It took trials, in fact, to reassure Nathaniel that she would be fine traveling on her...

49 Zi'da 717
To say that Valeria was upset was an understatement. As soon as Celeste Andaris had swept from the room with her rather embarrassed husband in tow, the young woman buried her face in her hands, all signs of her...
The darkness of early night was beginning to crawl across the Northern Krome House, when Vince arrived by foot. He kept well out of sight while on the road, travelling through the brush. The sound of his footfalls mixed with the natural noises of the grounds, striking an...
The dawn wasn't even broken yet, but Oliver lied awake beneath the warm, pulsing form of Charlotte. He smelled her hair, still awash with the aromas of the party, and ran a smooth hand over the skin of her shoulder. There, lying beneath her after the success of his handiwork, made...
Charlie had awoken to lines of poetry, printed on a piece of parchment, laid gently upon the pillow beside her. It was still warm, and Charlie smiled,
reaching to the pillow and pulling it into her chest. It smelled like him....
/gallery/image.php?album_id=2&image_id=12022 70th of Zi’da, Arc 717
Around the lavish rooms he moved, shaking hands and offering polite smiles. He had sent Tasar on her little errands and now needed to keep a distance to prevent distraction. Andráska was on his own for now. Accepting a glass of...
