Waking up on the floor wasn't the best start to the dark, early trial - though it didn't seem to bother the Naerikk much as the previous day came back to her. As she had suspected, the yludih hadn't returned that night. She had slept soundly, safely, and with no further care. She...
The Rharne Bank is located in the Glass Quarter and, much like its beautiful surroundings, the building itself is quite striking. Round, vaulted ceilings, ornate pillars, large windows, and skylights are only a few of its defining features. The interior gleams as though it is brand...
Seira giggled as she slid down the rainbow , and splashed into crystal blue lake at the end of the rainbow. She swam over to the edge of the lake and waited for her sister to join her. She didn't have to wait long. With a shout of pure delight, Seri slid down the rainbow a few...
Genna was sitting quietly at her desk reviewing some correspondence that had come in from the head of Ne’haer’s Adunih branch. Genna respected the woman, she had worked with her for a number of arcs, and she was an excellent healer and had great bed manners. She was subtle suggesting...
The Eighth of Zi'da had arrived, and with it all the fighters who were promised glorious contest under the Lightning Dome. It was said that Ilaren herself would be in attendance, and this was quickly confirmed by her raucous laughter echoing from her...
The All-Taverns Tournament:
Praetorum vs. The Ground Pounder
8th of Zi'da 721
Praetorum has no information about his opponent, other than the obvious that he can observe. She's a bit short for a ground-fighting expert, but her reputation precedes her. So he will find out what she's capable...
And so, with the forfeiture of Vivian Shiryu, and Elisabeth Angelus, the entire lower bracket of the tournament collapsed, and it would be impossible to crown a Champion without some form of asterisk. It was on the whole not a very satisfying prospect, for either the...
Before Tristan had a chance to decide where he'd be going, he was handed a letter that smelled of a mixture of sweet mead and rum. It bore Ilaren's seal on its face. Inside, he'd find a note penned by Ilaren herself, inviting him to...
Unfortunately, Faith wasn’t available at Eureka at the time of Woe’s landing on Rharnean territory. While he’d had a chance encounter with a kindly woodsman who escorted him to the village in due time, he’d been unable to locate Faith herself there. So he did the next best...
They had a concert to plan, and the needed to get started with it if they were going to have enough time to practice for it since the concert was going to be in four trials. Especially since Seira was asking Seri to learn a new song from scratch. So while...
The last light had finally faded from the sky a couple of trials earlier, and the cold had taken a hold of the land. Verdant green meadows and golden fields had been replaced by ice and snow, and life had moved inside.
In the beginning, Tristan had missed going to the park with...
Another trial, another job. This was how Leander saw his trials going - just one job after another, with no real end in sight. Not that he didn’t enjoy his work. Now that he had carved out a niche for himself having apprenticed under a chemist for some years, he felt much...
Returning to the Rharne headquarters of the Order of the Adunih, Leander stared up at the towering building for a few minutes. It was imposing and intimidating, yes, but that wasn’t what was stopping him from entering. The first time he had come here, it was on business,...
85th of Ashan 722
21st of Vhalar: Followers of the Stone Maiden
It began as a trickle of individuals speaking the strange tongue of Vahanic. They arrived upon the Flutterbus from Desnind and by boat from afar, praising Moseke with a slightly unsettling level of fervor. However, eventually, the...
Sent out on an errand, Leander was used to carrying out work that should be reserved for lesser beings. He was a trained chemist, a relatively skilled one at that, and he still found himself doing the dogsbody work of shifting his creations around the city. He really needed...
Gennadiya sat quietly at her desk reading over a report about different herbs suppliers. Genna understood about the different arguments in the report, as there is a balance between budget and quality. Genna made a note on her to do list about having someone look at the quality. The...
Diana had gone the past season from the time of the murder and her coverup thereof, and by then her paranoia was working overtime. It had some help in the form of lightning knights asking her neighbors about the information on the missing man, as well as her sometimes. Far from...
After he had taken his little daughter Ayla into her room and wished her a good night, Tristan joined his parents and his grandmother in the living room for a glass of wine. It was not Venora Rose, the wine that had been produced in his old home – he...
All was quiet in the night breaks of cylus. Plants wilted or laid dormant, people avoided the dust quarter streets in the hopes that the dark would not claim their lives or their pocketed possessions. The varied taverns shooed their lingering patrons out so that they could...
There was this thing about the sultry redhead that no one knew – she had as many sides to her as, well, something with a lot of sides. Dirty traveling clothes or dressed up, she was comfortable in either and knew her way around a tavern. Traveling often left...
