Once an isolated and dying township, an influx of academics, adventurers and thrill seekers have made Scalvoris Town their home. From scholars' tea shops to a new satellite campus for Viden Academy, this is an exciting place to visit or make your home!

Always down for a challenge, a young alcoholic with the mixed blood of an Eidisi, a Biqaj and Human, was morally driven short of any pride. This trial was a trial meant for drinking and celebration. It was custom for consumption to begin at the cusp of dawn and continue...

The sun had set long ago, and it gave way to the insurgence of the moon. If Kotton could, he would document the celestial shapes that transpired during the transition, but unfortunately, his vision and attentiveness wasn’t so keen and he was certain he was underestimating the...

Winston earned a good relationship with Galena during the pirate relief threads he did here , where he earnt an agreement from the Order to co-operate with Isonomia with relief efforts.
Also, I spoke to Peg and she said I was OK to use these City NPC's in this thread....

The steps up to the clinic's front doors always made Kotton slip. And it wasn't because they were icy. It was because they had been constructed with the petty desire to make the anyone fall. It was a choice the construction workers made that probably gave them absolutely joy and...

A young, partially deaf man had entered the plane of higher thought and innovation. He swam through fallacious waves akin to those of an oceans’, gradually taking physical form into a mindscape he hadn’t touched in several trials. Lately, his soul had only the strength to stand...

Kotton was perched on the edge of a barstool, eyes wide, mouth drooling over the methodology performed by the bartender across the counter from him.
His gaze was like a hawk’s- taking in every measure, every detail like it meant life or death to him. He had almost forgotten...

It was the same night as when Kotton had undertaken the experience of playing the game of roulette. He had won only once, but that was enough to make him susceptible to the black hole of gambling. He had bought off his new companion, Miss Iona, with a loan of fifty chips, and chips, as...

Kotton liked speaking aloud to himself. Keeping when it came to his own thoughts. Keeping them contained within his mind would hurt overtime. There were so many, too many, all running into each other. It was stuffy inside. The traffic was so immense that things were always in a state of...

Kotton was speaking with a spirit, an encounter he had only dreamt of during passages where drunkenness met with sobriety. But here he was, as adjusted to reality and its ever-accruing misfortunes, conversing with someone whom he had tried to save but failed. And she was very...

Barging through the doors, the men continued to walk the poor girl up another set of stairs made out of the weathered wooden material often found in lacklustre areas that couldn’t afford much money. But the slipping hazard often associated with traversing the stairs into the clinic had...

The buildings he passed reminded him of the time he spent writing poems during a journey through town. He had described the exteriors and their ornate beauty, even the beauties that were found inside, all in an attempt to progress in a form of poetic freestyle.

Libraries were interesting places. Some said a good library would never be filled with dusty books because there would always be people inside taking them off the shelves and reading them. The Scalvoris Town Public Library was one of the good ones. Balthazar had been to the library...

Boredom was an enemy, a villain, a masochistic criminal in Kotton’s books. He detested the moment where he would find himself in the grasp of eviltry. His mind required, necessitated to the most emphatic degree, to be stimulated at all hours of the day, even during the time when...

It felt like a cat scratching the inside of his wrist. The needle was injecting itself into his skin like a body piercing that didn’t quite stick through the other side. Kotton watched the woman tattooing his arm hit the back of the wooden handle...

Unhurried and without a strong need to be anywhere, Kotton’s stride regularly faltered. For a few seconds he sauntered smoothly across the flat terrain of the city streets, but then, without warning, he would abruptly stop and to what? To catch a glimpse of an unusual pebble at...

No one wanted to feel depressed. Who did? It was an irregular, anguishing expression of thoughts unmedicated. Therapy only tendered with so much guidance, but the sadness persisted, lingering like the remnants of a fart. Changing one’s brain completely was like derailing a...

Kotton was about ready to close his eyes for the night, never to open them until the sun plundered its way through the blinds in his kitchen when a frantic rapping, far to loud to be ignored by even a deaf man, forced him into an upright position.

“You don’t look like you belong here,” bellowed the man, rising from his spot against the white felted seat. He placed his forefinger at the spot between his glasses, pushing them further up his nose.
Kotton looked down at what he was wearing. Whilst his shirt had very few...
Woe was busy in the kitchen of the oft-neglected townhouse in Scalvoristown. The place was well enough kept, probably attended to by Sage, who'd chosen to stay on and live there, making it her primary residence and also serving as a bit of a house sitter. Woe imagined she was...

Flecks of white filled the icy air with the wispy plumes of laughter: children’s laughter, careless and indigent of the responsibilities that have yet to plague their future. Had the world changed that much in so few years? Was spirit buried by the natural declaration of...

Chest heaving, lungs expelling, thin tendrils of smoke billowing, Kotton let out a booming cough as he fought the atmosphere for air having just taken one few too many tokes. He pounded his fist against his chest, as if that would do anything. His eyes watered, a singular tear...
