We're starting a little something different, somewhat in the spirit of the NaNoWriMo, since we're a writing site it seems appropriate to take the opportunity to motivate each other to have some fun and earn some medals by starting and completing...

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 Website: Standing Trials ( / ), referred to through the rest of this thread as the website , our website , the site , our site , Standing Trials , and Trials .

The mug shattered against the man's face with a satisfying crunch of clay and half-drunken beer, which seared into the small scratches that resulted on his face. However, the Lotharro was an experienced brawler and didn't...
Zunylanih had come over on the flutterbus. Rharne had not been kind to them, not in any way shape or form. It had beaten them halfway to death into the gutter, pulled out their pocket change, stole their donkey and puppet set, and then spat on them for good measure. It was an...
True to Ekohdene's advice, Safira tried her best to fit in to the regular populace of Desnind. It was a challenge, with the language barrier, but thankfully there was an inexplicable influx of immigrants from Quacia. Safira was at first...
It was around mid-trial as The Greenhorn first saw the coastline of the southern continent. Hankley stood near at the front of the ship, her cloak wrapped tight around her. It was so cold down here, it was not something she was used to. The water the clung to her skin...
Their clawed feet crunched against the snow-laden earth, and layers of old-growth and leaves that had fallen over the arcs, providing a crisp and easily followed trail. More than once, it occurred to Rakvald that...
Nio'no stared apprehensively at the big... man... thing that approached. Rakvald thought he looked friendly enough, even though he was a horribly mutated Paltharnum Ithecal - or occupying the totem of such - he had...
Ash-flaw and Rakvald were walking beneath the canopy of the village, on the outskirts of Desnind. It was a good day for a walk, and Rakvald was getting acclimated more and more to his new body. His tail, he’d long since gotten used...
There was an excitement about the village, as Rakvald strode into the coastal area of the town of Desnind. He was wearing his Ithecal totem, the magnificent pale-gray scaled creature. He only wore the remnants of...
15th of Cylus, 720
Tor’ree growled when she finally woke up. It was still dark which was typical of Cylus, but that did not make it any more fun to have to get up. Looking over at the glass jar with the cocoon in it for the iyo, her red eyes seemed to shimmer as...
Kodi was a good hand, a little green thing, that skittered about the Steading, delighted his daughter with its antics, and of course frustrated and played havok with his ‘wife’ Ildred. He and his...
Rakvald had heard of the Kudi'eltu. Having lived for a few seasons in Desnind in the past, one picked up a fact or two. The grafter had rubbed elbows with a hunter or two in his time. More than a few of whom often complained about little...
The twilight of cylus has began for the day as the cult members began to start walking around the city. It was clear they had a mission and were prepared to do as their leader commanded. Watching from their hut with deep concern for the chaos that seemed to keep getting worse....
1st: Darkfall (Holiday) : Within the first breaks of the season the last light of Zi'da fades beneath the horizon, the city gathers their iyo lanterns to participate in the light walk, a symbolic farewell to the former arc and a greeting of the next.
/gallery/image.php?album_id=267&image_id=7692 Zida 5 720
For as much as she tried, Ome'li had been unable to sell the property. On the outskirts of Desnind, where the trees of the forest thinned sat an acre of land that should have drawn as many eyes as it did superstition. Zi'da flowers bloomed...
/gallery/image/18282/medium Shall we go collect some wood?... 8th Zi'da, 720
T his was a very bad idea, Perdita thought.
But, Eli had said that he wanted to go out and collect some things in the forests around Desnind. Perdita had looked up from the book she was binding, tying the eightfold...
Weather: 1st: The trials continue to get colder, and the first of the snows for the season fall on Zi’da 1st. It lasts for a few trials of snow flurries.
Events: N/A
Hankley was sitting on a log, her cloak draped around her shoulders, her ears filled with ether as...
The House of Rakvald in Desnind is a humble structure, formed from simple living wood and also some fallen scraps gathered from the surrounding forest for the Sev'ryn woodcrafters. The main entrance is accessible from a bridge leading from the...
The 1st Trial of Ymiden, Arc 720
The very first trial of a brand new season seemed like the best time to embark on a whole new endeavor; one that if all went as planned, could change the world forever. It would be the first step towards lifting up and taking to the skies; soaring high above the...
30th: The elders urge everyone to keep anything precious to them indoors before the storm hits. When the storm hits, the city is battered by hard rain and wind that causes loose branches to fall to the ground. Some large enough to kill a grown person if hit.
The Medicine House was a flurry. The nurses scurried attending to their patients, while others secured the windows, boarding them up where possible. Zephy's stomach fluttered with anticipation, her brow beaded with sweat...
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip...
Nzi was so very happy at that moment. He sat in the mud beside the mossy side of a great tree, his back bent as he examined the life that roamed and thrived beneath every rock. He took out the small Videnese looking-lens that his parents had gifted him on his birthtrial just...
Starter Quest ~ Zephy has come to Desnind in order to look for her father, with only a written note and a rough sketch. If she decides to ask around, a sympathetic Sev’ryn will eventually point her to Karshe’s. Nae’ila, the innkeeper, they tell her, knows almost everyone in the city and might be able to help – and she might also help her find work, in case she is looking to make some money …
Desnind City, West side Just after Noon, 13th Ymiden 720
Creatures rustled in the jungle of undergrowth and birds flapped by over head from branch to nest. The density of the forest overruled the world outside and forbade entry, save for that of the dabbling of sunlight glinting through the...

Vyẹnyẹ Bou'ae'et Docks Late Morning, 13th Ymiden 720
Coastal birds squawked and quacked. The rush of waves upon the bow of the ship and creak of the wood upon the pressure of the sea as the ferry inched closer to the vast land, was over run by the chatter of the busy docks not a hundred feet...
Eli was seated on the rug in the middle of the floor, inside the small room that he and Perdita had rented together. It was still cold out, in spite of the mild warming trends of Ashan; and most of the work that needed to be done, at least for now, could...
