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!
The Hot Cycle has Ymiden (83 Trials) and then Saun (40 Trials) which are open for you to play. All new threads from June 1st 2023 - September 31st 2023 should be timestamped within one of those two seasons.

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 small wooden cube hit the water with a kerplunk , causing a droplet of liquid to launch itself upwards from the splash before it too came crashing down. It bobbed in the salty water, wet on all sides but nonetheless floating, with a...
Wald had gotten to the Islands none to long ago, landing on the southern coast of the land. Having to travel lighter due to the means in which he moved between Viden and Scalvoris, he only had his hunting and basic survival equipment. Roughing the night under a massive tree,...

Ari'sora tossed and turned restlessly in her sleep. Every so often, she whimpered softly. Shadow watched her sadly. She always tried to wake her friend when she was trapped in a nightmare, but nothing she tried ever seemed to work. All...

Supply And Demand
Seeking Passage Arc 720, 42nd of Ashan
Rharne?! the man exclaimed. U'frek's piss! Why would ya want ta go ta Rharne?!
The cool breeze from the Hollow Sea ruffled through the man's grey beard as he grimaced,...
When his prospects with the Crovan family of Melrath, and Noatun had dried up in seasons past, Rorom did as often he would. He set sail, to find a more hospitable port. He arrived in Scalvoris town a few seasons ago. He'd kept to his own business...

Supply And Demand Arc 720, 41st of Ashan
Darius knew of Cally's , but he'd never stepped inside. Much like its founder, Faith Augustin, the venue had a famous reputation, but few Scalvorians had had the good fortune to get close...

After The Kudi'Eltu King .
Ymiden 30, Arc 720
“Does anybody want more chocolate cookies?” Mrs. Harper, the kind-hearted woman who had opened her home to a handful of orphans from Faldrass asked and held up a large tray that was filled to the brim with delicious...
Ari'sora stared across the room longingly. There was a window directly across from her bed, and it offered her a glimpse of the sky. Freedom lay just beyond a thin piece of glass...and yet it had never been so far away. Even with Ren'zar as her guardian, she had never been...

Darius' fingertips slid beneath the top layer of sand, feeling the grains as they slid over his digits and rolling them gently between finger and thumb. The bearded blond, who was crouched in a squatting position, closed his...
It was time for another test; her fifth since she had been kidnapped by Vyndar and Hathelrri. Four times she had failed this test, and as Ari'sora looked across the room at her audience, it was hard for her to believe that totrial would be any different. Mi'zuri held Rin'saia...

...Continued from Assistance Needed Pt. 1
The shop itself was easy to find once pointed in the right direction and Yeva stepped through the front door rather quietly. Half expecting to be greeted upon entry, her lungs had filled themselves with a reply that was not needed. Strange...
Ari'sora didn't feel well. And she hadn't felt well for trials now. She wasn't sick, exactly, but in some ways she felt like she was. The dull, empty ache in her stomach was so much a part of her that it felt normal now. It wasn't that she didn't notice it anymore, but it felt...
After her failure from the trial before, sleep continued to elude her. Her thoughts were already turning to her next test five trials from now. She had five trials to improve enough to pass the upcoming test, and that meant that she didn't have a single trial to waste on...
Ari'sora heard a knock on the door, but it only vaguely impinged on her awareness. Her captors wouldn't bother with knocking, so there was no risk of punishment if she didn't answer. And with only two trials left until her next test, she simply didn't have the time to spare from...
Ari'sora's eyes burned with exhaustion. She had been skipping meals and sleep whenever possible for the last several trials, trying to squeeze as much practice time as she could in the trials leading to her test. And to be told that she would have to master another instrument in...
True to Vyndar's word, there was...something waiting for her on the table next to the glass flute she used for practicing when she woke up. Ari'sora wasn't quite certain what to make of it. It didn't look like any instrument she had ever seen before. For that matter, it didn't...
After several breaks, Mi'zuri woke from her uneasy slumber. Ari'sora asked her if she wanted anything, but if her sister heard her, she didn't respond. Her sister was probably trying to come to grips with what had happened to her, and if so, Ari'sora could...
Ari'sora watched her sister sleep. Knowing how much pain Mi'zuri would be in when she woke up, she wanted her sister to sleep for as long as she could. To aid in that, she moved as quietly as she could as she changed into the new nightgown that her captors had provided for her,...
Kirei's mind raced frantically as she prepared breakfast for her family. She had never planned out a meal for an important event like this before. But that was what she was going to do at work totrial. The event itself had been her...

I'm sorry but maybe it would be better if I spoke with you both individually? Balthazar suggested to the seamstress and her aging husband. The seamstress cast a glance to her husband that Balthazar thought was a little strange, almost as if asking for permission, and when her husband...
It hadn't been all that long ago that Kirei had been trapped in the form of a caracal. Now that Kura had helped her to see that she wasn't as bad a person as she'd feared, it was time that she get back to her life. She had done...
