Beyond the city of Rharne lies the Stormlands, which is home to a number of farms, forests, fields, Lake Lovalus, and the River Zynyx. This subforum also includes the Stormwastes to the south.

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 .
You: The person reading these words right now.
The Staff: All users who are identified as...

How to Use Locations: These locations may be freely used in your stories unless otherwise specified. Please do not respond directly to the location threads. Instead, create a new thread for your roleplay....
The Mistral Woods was peaceful this time of year, and the creek flowed with a babbling song that carried as far as it emptied into the Zynyx River. It was an idyllic place, where nothing tended to go wrong. But there were stories of the Creeksong Cavern, of a couple that delved into it, only to...
They had agreed to meet. This time, they both set a trial and though Elowen did not keep track of trials by their numbers, just knowing he would be coming back, she at least could expect him this time around. And that helped her enough to manage herself, her time and activities. Still, getting a...
The Host should've acted sooner. He'd been lackadaisical, had put it off, perhaps even given up on the Inheritor. But the squirming chaos had not forgotten him, nor the wealth of flesh that he employed at his Mansion. While the bird was away, the worm would play. And so the Inheritor had inserted...
Elowen did not rush to the Gallach's residence the same trial that she discovered the essence of rosemary and lavender. She couldn't. She understood very little of what it was she had isolated in the flask that to give it to someone else straight away would have been counterproductive and rather...
Elowen didn't know what it was exactly that woke her up. But the first thing she became aware of was growling. Deep seated, warning that in the darkness of the night made her heart race even before her mind was fully awake. She had never heard such a thing.
Ten Trials after laying his father, the Dubois Patriarch to rest from the shores of Lake Lovalus, Nathaniel Dubois,was holding a party to celebrate his father's life and accomplishments. The Dubois Patriarch was well known for having cornered a large portion of the agricultural market in Rharne....
Stormwastes...a place where there should be no life. Or so Elowen imagined. But that couldn't have been further from truth when she was at last approaching Rosebay. The settlement that Eseld told her about and the man within it who could help her.
She was travelling with a caravan that was in fact...
Vahekoh sat straight-backed in Vahdah's saddle. Vahdah, she sensed, was wanting to go - it was there in the vibrations of his breathing, in the impatient shiver in his back and in his legs. Vahekoh sat forward a little in the saddle, gripping the reins, and when...
Somewhere beyond the fog, the suns were high in the sky trying to penetrate the haze. And to a certain degree, they managed. The mist outside looked whiter but it was still stubbornly stationed outside her door. The breeze also tried to tear the veil up a little and at times the forest would appear...
As much as she tried the trial before, Elowen could not sit down and think. The idea that the blue skinned man, the Eidisi, could be in the village was unsettling her too much to have the clarity she needed for the task she had to do. She tried, many times, after Eseld left. But eventually she gave...
Fat raindrops drummed on the roof of the shack. She heard their forceful splashing just outside the door as well but that was only thanks to the fact that she left it open just a crack. That way, a light breeze on occasion swished through the room before exiting via the window at the back. Elowen...
Even in her limited world of Mistral Woods, Elowen could discover some surprises now and again. Some that were pleasant, and some not so much. Like accidentally eating dog berries instead of blueberries or, as to-trial, finding a patch of wild pumpkins ready for picking. And oh did the Immortals...
She drove the teeth of the rounded gardening fork into the dirt after she had laboured away at the previous row of potatoes with a shovel. A fork was just a better tool to loosen up the dirt and bring the harvest to light.
Elowen had her sleeves rolled up with sweat running down her back and...
Elowen frowned and closed the door to the shack. Ark barely looked at her when she walked to the door. Him and Pea got along a little better and so the pup was lying at the back of the shack, whilst the miniature phoenix was in his nest on top of the girl's sleeping pallet. It wasn't unusual for...
Elowen got started on her journey back home early that trial. Earlier than usual to beat the heat of the Stormwastes. Though the Stormlakes were a pleasant oasis on the edges of the wasteland, the trip to Rosebay was taxing in terms of heat, especially for her who had not yet figured out how to...
The snows came and went. Then the nature woke. Life began anew. Everything blossomed and bloomed. Air got hotter and Elowen struggled with having a head scarf. But then things cooled down again. And eventually, snow began to fall once more.
That first arc in Mistral flew by. Away from the city of...
Elowen picked up her satchel that was always prepared and ready to go . Inside was her gathering gear, simple first aid made up of herbs from the shack and strips of fabric, but also a pair of leather gloves after her most recent fiasco when collecting Light Agira by Lake Lovalus. There was also a...
It’d been a while since Luvi had volunteered and earned a couple of Isonomia Fairy Tokens. She’d known that they were supposed to be useful, but she’d never dug too much into what they could be used for. It felt odd being rewarded for charity work, but she wasn’t going to turn...
Travelling to the Shrine of Souls in Umbral Caverns
Cazuth was hobbling along, still somewhat shaken from their encounter with a blitznir and subsequently walking all the way to the Shrine of Protection, which was dedicated to a being known as Ethelynda. Cazuth was constantly impressed and...
It had been an arc already. It had been many moon turns, many trials and still many more like this that would come and go. Elowen struggled to see how she could deal with it all. How could she survive it when it ravaged her body and she still did not know how to predict it?
