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...

Please be open, Lorena muttered beneath her breath as she snuck around the corner of an alleyway to the front door of a stranger's house. She hurriedly took a hold of the door and tried to push it open. Clunk, clunk, clunk it was locked as...

The eve of Suan was approaching, it was evident, the way the air seemed to soak up all the moisture on one's lips and skin. Making almost any thirst practically unquenchable. Children who would have usual run around barefoot now...
Ymiden was here and so far things were either going to be even more promising, or damning, for Patrick depending on where things went. Admittedly he knew it was only a matter of time, before he needed to find a place...

Location: The Four in Hand
Thirty two arcs ago he was a mere babe brought into this cruel and relentless world, born to a mother who had already birthed another son before him... born to a life of poverty without any sign of a...

For a long time, the little shrine just outside of Scalvoris Town had been in a state of disrepair. The paint on the walls had been coming off, the windows had been missing, there had been holes in the roof, and what more, rats had done their...

Neis Wood Crafts is a family run shop that has been passed down from parent to child for many generations. Most of the family works in the shop in one capacity or another, and it is a matter of pride when a child is deemed old/skilled enough to be...
43 Ashan 720
Sitting at the second tavern, a much more pirate-themed establishment than the first tavern. Every drink was some variation of rum and Balthazar wasn't familiar with a single one of them. Every server wore an eyepatch and a bandana and carried what Balthazar hoped was a fake cutlass....

If you enter the office of the Academic, the first thing that you notice will probably be the bookshelves that are made of fine, dark wood, with carvings, and filled with all kinds of books. The books are in pristine condition. There are no...
100th Ashan is a trial for drinking and celebrations. On this trial it is usual for drinking to begin at dawn and to continue throughout the trial until dawn the next trial. Anyone that manages to drink for the entire...
33 Ashan 720
Balthazar had planned to go to The Menagerie in hopes that his association with the Elements would be enough to convince Elise to let him borrow one of the better trained Scalvwing Steeds for a patrol trip around the sky to see if he could figure out what was making the spectral...
On the 5th of Ashan, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and newly appointed incredibly experienced councilor, stood in front of the kitchen table, wearing his favourite frilly white apron that said “Kiss The Cook” in bright red letters, and...
My friend Bert, the large stuffed bunny, thinks that you're being rude.
The bickering children silenced at once and spun around to lay eyes on Yeva, a red haired maiden holding up a plush rabbit, hand crocheted and made of taffy pink yarn. Beside her stood the caretaker, whom she...

Sometimes it really paid off to know the right people. Sometimes it really paid off to know the right places. And sometimes it really paid off to be a mage who could break into pretty much any place people tried to keep you out of. By the...
Ninth Break
14 Cylus, Arc 720
Scalvoris Town
A burglar has been breaking into homes when empty and stealing gold, silver and jewelry. This has happened across the island and, as such there is some concern that this might be a group. No violence occurs and there is minimal property damage, just a...

Bank of Scalvoris, Scalvoris Town

In the middle of Scalvoris Town, an imposing building loomed over the neighboring architecture. Lit up in the Cylus dark by all sorts of lights, torches and candles and things that glowed that Carver couldn’t identify...
On the 6th of Cylus, Devin Thorn, thief, conman extraordinaire and wannabe mage sat on the couch in his living room, a book that he had borrowed from the local library in his lap, occasionally taking notes in his notebook (that had a fancy bright...
2nd Break, Cylus 5, Arc 720
The Four in Hand , Scalvoris Town
secret texts
Through the heavy gates of the tall palisade that kept the city from view, the three travelers entered Scalvoris Town. The Thiussium Ithecal, Quint, had visited before and as soon as they stepped through, he offered...
“This is really nice“, Devin decided, lay down on the blanket that he had spread out in the sand, under his luxurious black and golden sunshade and turned to watch the other beachgoers for a while before he looked at his roommate and close...
Where is that bard? Balthazar thought to himself as he arrived at the Temple of Delroth. It wasn't any larger than a poor man's garden shed but it was the most intricately decorated garden shed Balthazar had ever seen. There were people moving about- some probably priests and others...
