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!
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...

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....

-ori! Wake up! Aokan's high voice boomed in the silence of the dark room, and Kori'än tensed up, eyes snapping open as his hands curled around the blanket before he forced himself to relax. The usual headache made itself known, and he grunted, slowly...
Yeva doubled over in pain, clutching her ribs as her feet slowed to a stop and the exertion of her run caught up with her. With burning lungs rivaling Faldrun, a merciless stitch in her side, and the inability garner enough air in her lungs, she was convinced her...
By the time there was a moment to breathe, Yeva ordered her second glass of wine and was tearing an envelope given to her as one of her final winnings. Apparently copious amounts of gold in a bank account opened in her name and a flying mount were not...
These, harmony.
It is so good for thee.
Please, don't harm me.
I am so good for thee.
Haunting hymns in the evening air wafted from the Glass Temple, a quire of the devout bleeding their hearts into song while the congregation held their heads in silence. Jack was...
Between studying and the new rush of lectures, Shl'drei had spent more time at the academy. He supposed it had done his endurance good- when he got back to the dorms each trial the first thing he did was fight off the urge to sleep. For one thing, he'd be gone at least three...
It was early trial when Shl'drei knocked on Lyah's dorm door and dragged (well, almost dragged, it was a struggle) his classmate and diesel close to the menagerie. He waited patiently after waking her- it was rude of him otherwise right? But he felt like...
Urging Renaissance into a canter, sensing his need to run, the pair raced away from Scalvoristown, searching for a bit of freedom. Natalia hadn’t expected to be back in town so soon, but now that she was, they would spend a few trials within before moving west to see what...
Fresh bread. Roast Chicken. Spicy Potatoes. Mab’s nose twitched and her mouth watered when she caught the whiff of spiced roast fish coming from the kitchen.
“What a feast!” Mab greeted her mother by plucking the heavy fish dish from her delicate hands and sweeping out of...
Rakvald stood on the outskirts of the Menagerie, outside looking in. In his dreams, he'd been gifted a bit of inspiration, an idea that he couldn't quite shake. In his dream, he'd been flying, soaring above...
“Come and wake me right away if any of them go into labour.” Alexandria finished after touring the Mer around the Hafrein stables and explaining the condition of the three bloated cows kept indoors that night. The three Hafrein were swollen with calf and due at any moment....
Thread Outline/Plan: Part 1: Mab visits PB paper house having heard rumours about a sistership that runs the place. However, her out of time Darbyton knowledge doesn’t serve her well. Instead, she finds a single sister drowning. She is infuriated that a woman would...
The gate creaked making its chain clink when Mab passed. Drawing her hooded cloak closer around her hunched shoulders Mab glanced behind her into the darkness she left in her wake. Her torch cast a foot of light around her,...

PB Paper House is passion project, started by two sisters with a dream of creating a newspaper that would one trial rival the Rynmere Gazette. Eventually, the younger of the two women, Rose Bones, married and opted to leave the company, leaving her...
Mab eyed the finely written parchment. The library was in need of a cataloguer and appraiser and Mab was in need of nell. Despite the near endless work this season she wasn’t any closer to purchasing her own printing press or any of the fineries she lingered at in shop...
The three Cadouri that were waiting outside the door, dressed in very fine clothes, wearing scarves and holding little lanterns because it was dark and unpleasant and cold in Cylus were indeed cute and fluffy. They were in...
On the afternoon of the 29th of Ashan, Devin Thorn, medical genius in progress , priest of Delroth and unexpected Baron (He’d just wanted Alyssia to get the job!) was standing in his garden, arms on his hips and eying the thick rope that he had...
Kalortah had a big night ahead of him, it was the Zi'Da season, and people would surely be generous with the tips for buskers. This coming season promised to be a big one for Kalortah, the heat had died down...
On the morning of 29th of Cylus, Devin Thorn, medical genius in progress , masterful bard and unexpected Baron (He’d just wanted Alyssia to have the Barony!) was walking around in his kitchen, quite anxiously, taking to himself and occasionally...
The words were flung with irritated haste at the receptionist. Mab was acknowledged with a distracted wave in her direction, “She says she’s here for a job.”
“You can’t call me down here every time someone is looking for a job. You should schedule...
The caravans clunked at its first stop of the day. Though the colors of the horse drawn vehicles were faded there were still some shapes of green that stood out very vibrantly from the dusty colors. Two guards accompanied the caravan and helped the passengers off one by one. They...
”So, is it true what Osric tells me?” Oram asked his goat once he had led it outside. ”Are you…phlegmatic?”
Wether answered only with a glum, mute expression that seemed at odds with his rainbow-colored hair. Oram shook his head as he rolled up the trap-laden wagon he would be...
Exploring places was always fascinating but somewhat exhausting. After having lived in Scalvoris for her entire life, Natalia was finding a certain exhilaration in being able to explore the town as she desired, and that being on one’s own was something of a different beast....
