The cities and villages of Melrath are as varied and diverse as they come. The capital of Raelia is the the jewel of this western kingdom, playing host to a merchants, artisans, Aesir priests, as well as a cut throat political landscape dominated by the nobles of Raelia. To the south in the depths of the Myrkvior Forest lies Melrath's second largest, and oldest city, Fensalir. Here people have learned to live alongside spirits and the natural world by maintaining their loyalty to traditions laid down the first Melrathi. To the east lies the small fishing village of Noatun, and to the western mountains rests the Mer city of Verimeer, the brewing town of Alivilda and the alpine village Vormund.

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 a crazy office designed for a man to go mad. Everything in it was so saccharine, so false and unfit to the imperfection of the mortal spirit it made Peake feel uncomfortable. It wasn’t one particular thing but a cumulation of many. Firstly, there was this strange...
Peake was to meet Kenntin atop the Ydalir Watchtower, the highest point in Fensalir and at the very core of the main fort of the city. It was supposed to be a great honor and somewhat of a privilege to climb the steps of the watchtower. The Dragon, on the other hand, found...
It was a shop for dreams and wonder, a place wherein history-laden items ended up behind a double-layer, reinforced glass. Like a fortress in the mind for the first time explored, the mouth could only gape and the tongue could only dry as the eyes, wide as plates and empty...
Clear skies let a starry night descend upon Fensalir. Those glimmering lights were so big they seemed like golden grapes ready for the picking. In a land as superstitious as this, they’d say the spirts were out and about, hiding in the corners or wandering the near empty...
Are you happy now? Azrael screamed at the air, the stench of alcohol hung heavily on every word that he spewed in his drunken rage. He kicked a chair across the room and shouted unintelligible words for a few trills before he stumbled...
Yanish Col was an interesting and somewhat perplexing man who had captured Azrael's attention in the worst of ways. Tali and Adrian did not like Yanish- or at least Azrael assumed Adrian would not if he ever found out about the broker. Tali didn't...
The stranger who'd greeted him with a dagger pressed up against his back had lead Azrael to the fabled Three Sisters tavern and it had not been anything like Azrael expected. He didn't know what he really was expecting until he saw the...
The curious souls of Fensalir brought along their lanterns and flooded the town square with light. They came like a swarm, in great numbers. In time, the silent standing and staring in anticipation lead to gossiping, chatter and laughter. Some had even brought rugs and...
As far as Tristan was concerned, friends came in a wide variety of different of forms. Being a human or something similar was definitely not a requirement. One of his oldest and closest friends that he had known longer than most...
The walls of the temple were almost complete and there was wood scaffolding all along the vaulted ceilings as new stones were systematically placed using a pulley system and the careful maneuverings of the workers. There was...

Vhalar 10, Arc 720
The leaves in his little garden were beginning to change color, Tristan noticed when he took a look out of the window of his kitchen where he was just working. Green was slowly making way to different...
Tristan was excited. This trial, he would finally petition the Circle for permission to become a full Melrathi and hopefully stop being an outlander for good. He had been living in Raelia for approximately an arc at this point. A...
What did you give a woman that already had everything? What kind of gift would ever be good enough for a woman that was richer and more famous than most other people in the world of Idalos, that had stopped a war and become the...
Azrael sat up with a little start waking him suddenly from a bad dream about Tali and Thorn. He'd been standing in the middle of a black pond with the water reaching up to his waist. The two of them stood on the shore, waving to him as he tried to wade...
“You know that you don’t have to pick your embla right away”, Ingrid told Victor once they had left Mrs. Andersson’s office and were walking through the streets of Raelia once more. “It’s not mandatory. Now that you are a...
Contrary to popular belief, sculpting was not just art – it also doubled as an exhausting workout. At least that was the conclusion that Tristan came to when Mrs. Gunderson told him that she’d rather they do it in her garden than...
The Tournament of Plants and Potions
79-81th Ashan 720
CHALLENGE THREE
75th of Ashan and on: “Tournament of Plants and Potions” In Fensalir, House Namdalen and House Magnus decide to host a tournament. It is meant to serve as a recruitment drive for...
“Have you already thought about what you want your embla to look like and where it is going to be, by the way?” Ingrid wanted to know from Victor as they walked down a carpeted hallway, towards the office where they would...
Victor woke from his slumber because he heard a carriage drive past his house. He usually kept his bedroom window a crack open at night, at least during the warmer seasons, as a bit of fresh air helped him sleep better. His bedroom was located on...
