The shallow bay Egilrun is situated upon is used, these trials, for crafts and crafting. From boatmakers to weaponsmiths, glassblowers to metalworkers, the sound of hammers and saws can be heard almost every break of the trial, with crews working in shifts to produce the beautiful craftsmanship which they might, one trial, become famous for.
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...

Winston approached Egilrun Confidential for their maiden meeting. Woe had been in touch since the meeting with Saiore and they had agreed to use the commission of a shield as a cover story for their, now perhaps regular, interactions .
Egilrun existed on the blade's edge of oblivion. Going back as far as the time when Slag's Deep had defined it's destiny, the wealth flowing from that once prison mine, gems gathered by miscreants and misfits, monsters and...
Zana had already arrived several trials before, on the back of her dragonling. In that time, Woe showed her around the town of Egilrun, sites such as the bustling Market and Glass Union's hall were of...
Woe had heard through some of his Scavloristown contacts that there was a person speaking in a strange tongue.] When asked to describe it, they did their best. It was described as a soft spoken language, not the least bit harsh, although the man had been stern, the child was bright and cheerful....

A grey armoured arm, hand fisted on an orange background fluttered on the flag above The Unstoppable , proudly and unmarred by the events of the past tentrials. This alone of the ships manned by the Warden's crew and his hired escorts, had stood apart from the others, unharmed by the power...
Woe never imagined he'd be sacrifcing a nel of his hard-earned wealth to benefit a criminal, let alone a band of them. Not when he'd worked as a dungeon guard and torturer in Andaris, and certainly not from any point onward of that. Yet...
The streets were still bustling in the early evening. People milled about. There were less tasks in Egilrun than of most other places, given the limited damage done to its infrastructure, but the power of Egilrun's industries were needed for the repairs across...
Martiya scoffed again. It was so like the Naer, haughty, arrogant, and looking down upon one whom she supposed was a 'mere mortal'. Woe knew very well that Naer were anything but deathless, in spite of the surname she'd assumed, which was a synonym for just that. Undyhing Beauty, Amaranthine. Such...
The iron kettle was whistling away its frantic tune as Gloom appeared at the usually locked opening that led into Woe's inner office at Egilrun Confidential. He was bearing a narrow box, which bore the seal of the Glassblower's Union. Woe looked up from the stove that he'd had installed in his...
Winston entered the shipwright with a raft of papers under his arm and a bright smile on his face. According to the settlers of Sweetsong, Egilrun's ship builders were second to none and offered great deals to those willing to pay them a visit to negotiate.
The Glassblower's Union Hall had a variety of chambers in it, apart from the oft-visited lobby and the spacious work-areas with innumerable crucibles, ovens, and aperatures tasked to the shaping of glass into precise forms. There were many rooms besides that, of course. All of the functional areas...
Woe found himself in his old bed, in Egilrun, in Soraia's house, or what once had been his room within that house. Now he didn't know where Soraia preferred to sleep, but he assumed she'd have taken the master bedroom. Then again, the...

Egilrun - Soraia's House
He didn't know how much time had passed. In truth, he almost suspected the last few arcs were a dream as he awoke in his old house on the southern outskirts of Egilrun... No, it was Soraia's house now. So what was he doing here? He of...
There was a large oak growing, just outside the orchard behind Woe's longhouse. Today, Woe had made the determination that he would shape it into a sort of house, or shelter for Toutouye. If the boy couldn't, or wouldn't abide the indoors, he could at least make do...
The rabbits had already been skinned and their pelts set aside, gently on a dry surface. Woe had set aside the meat for Gloom's perusal, and to check that it was sutiable for eating. After satisfying himself with the quality of the meats, he nodded and had them in a basket, ready for washing and...
Woe felt the watery displacement almost the very moment that Faith warned him. There was a shift of gravity that lifted straight out of the pit of his belly, disorienting him slightly on his feet. He almost pondered summoning his wings again to take flight off the WIcked...
Clean-up of the streets and digging out of the larger homes that hadn't outright collapsed beneath the weight of snow had already commenced. There were reports of people huddling together beneath the more stable structures, and so when those people were discovered, their casualties...
Moxie sat on the edge of her bed, materialized in her home with Nibbles the rabbit sat next to her. The stuffed toy was her only company these days, it was rare that she got to interact with a living being, so she made do with what she had. As such, her usual angst had...
The fencing had been finished a while ago now . He had enriched the fence with a few small reflective chimes. They dangled in the wind, tinkled and caught the light to ward off birds from whatever crops Woe planned to...
92nd Vhalar, 722.
Egilrun.
When the stars begin to sing.
It began with one voice. Then there was a second voice. Then there were more. The voices were soft in the beginning, so soft their singing was difficult to distinguish from the other sounds of the darkening night. But at the sound of the...
The basic necessities having been secured , Woe turned his attention to the health and mood of the citizens of Egilrun gathered in the makeshift Almshouse that Onyx Hall had become for the duration of the storm. Woe had arranged a system of boiling snow for water, rather...
Faith, at this point, didn't know much about exactly what was happening, but she knew enough to know that this was bad. There were three cover-of-darkness ships, large ones, making their way towards Egilrun. As...
