Darbyton is a well established little village, most of the inhabitants are quick to point out that they were the first proper settlement in Scalvoris history. Although primarily focused on logging, enough hunting and trapping goes on to largely fulfil their own food needs and almost every home regularly grows bean sprouts to help make sure nutritional needs are met. Between that and spruce tips and the like, very little is imported, which fits in with the nature of the people who live here.

”It was just lyin’ there on the path!” Skai chirped brightly as Oram examined the dirty, tarnished silver nel the old ex-Ranger had brought him. There was nothing remarkable about the coin apart from its moderate intrinsic worth; it was also mildly interesting that Skai had found...
Oram had always known that Idalos teemed with spirits, whether ghosts from the beneath, or diri tied to some concept or place, or any number of other things. It was only in the last couple arcs, however, that he could interact with such things meaningfully. A diri connected with...
The snows had come. There had been a few tentative flurries before, even a wet, heavy snow shower or two. But the air was fully laden with winter now, and the snow this trial floated down in tiny specs that stuck firmly to the frigid ground once they landed. There was only a...
Oram liked hunting in Zi’da. Even before he ever acquired any special ability to deal with the cold, he had liked the combination of sunlit skies and snow-covered earth that were mostly unique to this season. In many ways, it was ideal for hunting, not least of all because the snow made...
Skai looked around appraisingly as he and Oram approached footbridge over the spring at the southwestern end of Oram’s property. ”Birches and aspens grew in quick, didn’t they?” the retired Ranger wondered examining the close, spindly woods surrounding them. ”I can remember when...
Elliot looked at the man opposite him and he gave a slight smile. He had asked Oram to come and speak to him and then, when Oram arrived, Elliot had offered him a drink and a snack and done the whole 'gracious host' thing as much...
People hated rats, and rats feared people; nonetheless, wherever people went, rats appeared at the same time or shortly after. Thus it was in Darbyton. As the vendors and celebrants had flocked into the town for the Festival of Sight, so, too, had the scaly-tailed synanthropes. And...
The break was late afternoon, and the sun was well down in the western sky, so that Oram had to keep his hat low and his eyes on the road to avoid being dazzled. As a result, he was nearly upon Darbyton before he finally noted its first...

While the Darbyton Rangers have existed since the very beginning of Darbyton, their headquarters wasn't built until recent time. The various logging companies, under the direction of...
25th Ashan, Arc 721
Shl'drei had, for the most part, been recovering and getting his groove back. Luckily he was starting to make steady income, slowly of course. But it was income he needed. Everything was starting to pick up pace and click, the puzzle becoming a bigger clearer picture. He was...
30th Ashan, Arc 721
There was something about today, something in the air maybe. Whether it was by fate or bad luck, Shl'drei staggered into bar and out of the cool Ashan winds. He had a habit of caring his cloak either way and to-trial was a good example of why.
There was no time to waste, so Larksong had Shl'drei housed away from the chaos and ordered that he get some rest for the trip ahead. For a few breaks, he laid in the cot exhausted but unable to sleep. Replaying the events of the trial. Once the suns rose, Shl'drei...
Shl'drei wasn't a trouble maker, or a seeker of problems. Problems found him, sure. Like now, huffing his way to Dabryton. A while ago, he was at home, with Sek and Leora, in sweetwine. He'd just got the pack outside, Leora to roam and Sek for a quick walk and some exercise,...

Darbyton: The Logging Consortium.
3rd of Ymiden, 720
It was an odd feeling marching with an army at your back. Even if it was just a small troop of Element soldiers, Tio couldn't deny the sense of authority that came with it; the knowledge that...
Bond circled his wagon, checking for any irregularities that needed to be tended to before he harnessed the oxen. His gear had already been stowed away in the two storage chests strapped underneath the wagon, and the remnants of his camp had been disposed of or doused....
Gently, Bond picked the trio of eggs off of the dew covered grass, so as not to break them before he was ready. One by one, the wayfarer cracked them on the edge of the cast iron skillet resting elevated above the campfire, cautiously avoiding pressing any part of his...
“You ever worry you’re gonna be sitting too close to a campfire one night and just burst into flame from a stray spark, eh Amew?” Bond asked with a grin as he accepted the bottle of whiskey from Wulfa. “On account of all that bear shit you like to roll around in?”

The Logging Consortium, Darbyton.
118th Ashan, 720
Part 1 - 2
The moon rode high across the night’s sky, spilling silver light across the village of Darbyton. Most of the villagers were asleep in their beds, and those few who remained up so late...

On Felltree Road, there's a nondescript shack, tucked between the various warehouses. There's no sign indicating a business of any sort, and the windows are painted over from the inside. This is the Sawbones Shack,...

The Logging Consortium makes up nearly a quarter of all of Darbyton's structures. It consists of offices for each of the three companies within the Consortium. The oldest and largest of the companies is the...
