Almund is a thriving township with a dark side. With houses made from the wooden bodies of decommissioned ships, there are many opportunities here, coupled with many dangers.

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....

It was sometimes a little scary how quickly things could change. One moment you were happy and in the next your happiness turns to ashes in your mouth. There were still so many dead from the pirate attacks. Counts were still being taken and the official report hadn't released yet but...
Where did it come from? Balthazar asked Lyanna as he poured over the words in the letter once again. A small portion of his focus was dedicated to soothing his rupturing spark so he could sit still and read without trouble. He had been sent a letter from a group known as the...
What's Nellies'? Ulric asked Mallory as they trailed slightly behind the captain. Captain Vane seemed all too excited to be spending some of his trial in a brothel but it wasn't Ulric's place to judge. As far as he understood it, he was supposed to be there to defend the captain...
It was his fifth trial on the ship- well, this ship. After coming to an agreement with the captain, Ulric was given time to get his stuff and store it. He didn't have much, which helped, but he kept the important things he did have in the chest that ghosts couldn't sense. He was...

Timestamp: 26th of Cylus, 723
Location: Almund
The snow storm was over and the costs had been counted, which meant that Kura was in the capitol at Almund, pouring over reports. Not just death tolls, though there was plenty of that, but of repairs...
Woe had visited the Almund black market earlier. Totally incognito, of course, covered by Kuvarakh's interdiction as well as his own mortalborn proclivity for relinquishing his personal identity. Sometimes it...
The air within the cabin of his ship was frigid when he woke and he groped blindly for the Cavani’s cloak he knew was strewn haphazardly somewhere on his bunk. He felt the different fabric before he felt the warmth of it seep into his hand and he hastily dragged it up...
Almund was alive with people who had come to celebrate at the 'World's End' which was not exactly what it sounded like. Ulric had been confused at first but that wasn't anything new to him. It was hard to adjust to a new life. Hard to find good work and even harder to distance...
Pausing at the starboard railing, he took a moment to study the direction of the wind and where the tide was currently at. He felt the wind blowing onshore with the occasional tug on his hair to the East, the odd gale...
36th of Zi'da, Arc 717
Early Evening
Almund Elemental Hall, Scalvoris
The Almund Element Hall was quite busy. People were moving left and right, despite the somewhat late hour. It seemed like early evening was the local rush hour for Element troops in Almund. Ronan had arrived four trials ago,...
Sleeping in a real bed, safely out of the elements, was a sort of bliss that Pyrre was only just beginning to appreciate, especially with how Cylus had been going. Unfortunately, the cozy comfort he felt was to be tested, as Pyrre found himself rudely...
/gallery/image.php?album_id=507&image_id=18065 Arc 722, 1st of Vhalar
Darius thanked the bailiff and watched as the man led Demba away. The Scalvorian hoped that would be the last he'd ever see of the pirate who had brought violence and death to the coast of Faldrass, confident that however the...
If he'd been awake when it started, the damage might not have been as bad. People might not have died. Lives and homes might have been saved. He had been doing it all for too long to really believe in things like 'might' and 'maybe' but that didn't change the guilt Balthazar felt...

Timestamp: 18th of Vhalar, 721
Location: Almund Council Building, Kura's Office
Kura practically lived in her offices, a result of her job, but she was usually based out of the Scalvoris Town building. It had caused something of a minor stir when...
He was sitting on a bench looking up at the Glass Tree. Some claimed it had roots so deep they connected to Faldrass. He like that. It made him think of Elisabeth. It seemed to thrive in its own way even so shortly after the storm. Many people had come to visit the...
/gallery/image.php?album_id=507&image_id=18056 Arc 721, 76th of Zi'da
The early morning fog had cleared, the white blanket rising to reveal the island of Scalvoris. It was never truly concealed, a dark shadow looming behind the mist, but Darius always preferred the clarity of an unhindered...
The exterior of the headquarters for The Black Cats mercenary company , was finished in Cylus of 723, looks like a ship that had a third taken off the bow before being flipped upside down and set in Almund. Hanging from...
He deserves to know, Squeak said with a huff of disapproval. The runt might have struggled to even look up at the tallest members of the pack, yet his innocence and naivety was beginning to put him at odds with more senior packmates - speaking as a voice...
A light flurry was falling on the streets of Almund that morning. The last of the drying lines hung unused in the chill of early winter, while the ramshackle shanties and shelters had been...

1st of Vhalar - The Bones
He came to where he'd put to sleep on the 30th of Saun. Crashing on the sofa in the foyer of Efah's old residence, now his, and Lacrima's he supposed. More his, at least in an official capacity. And though he ought to have been asleep in...
At The Prospect Tavern , Eldyn made his way to the front desk. He'd arrived via Port Diablo, as he couldn't risk being named on a log book in the harbor master's office. There were a share of expenses for arriving via the accursed Port Diablo,...
Astra's cry was met with a sarcastic cheer. The sailors who made up Darius' crew were proud residents of Scalvoris Town, and their friendly rivalry with the capital meant they liked to tease Almundians good-naturedly purely for the sake of it....
