Harvardr is made up almost entirely of yurts. While any single building may be disassembled and reassembled elsewhere, there are always enough left here that it has become it's own little village. What was once wholly a mobile camp of fisherman, sealers and whalers placed to take advantage of migrations is now just as likely to have full families, some who have been there for several generations.
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...

In fact, it did not take mere moments to construct a workable forge area. Rorom underestimated just how much heat was needed to make a metal shaping-hot. An open flame simply wouldn't suffice. They'd need a rotary blower, a furnace, and fuel enough to burn for their...
The winds lapped merrily at the back of the Onyx Cascade, whipping up throngs of unsecure rigging, yet at the same time filling the belly of her sails with the force of a weak storm. Rorom didn't know what Scalvoris called their Vhalar weather, but it certainly beat the chill of Viden, or the...
”Karem help them!” gasped Elise Shmickel, as she and Oram approached the sad collection of improvised lean-tos and half-ruined tents. The Chief Ranger followed Elise’s gaze towards “them”, a desperate-looking knot of men, women, children, huddling near an inadequate number of...

39th of Vhalar 720
The day after Breachfang's defeat was one of solemn jubilation for the people of Havardr. While the beast's vicious reign over their fishing waters was at an end, and the heroes who'd dispatched it had been paid by...

The wooden planks of the Havardr docks clattered noisily as Darius landed upon them. The leather boots that he wore were scuffed and tired, having carried his footsteps across many locales. The cold that greeted him in Havardr...
The shipment of fish and whale oil was stowed away in his cargo, neatly in barrels and other containers. Now all he needed was to get his damned ship moving through the hustle and bustle of Havadr's port. He unhitched it from the pole on the pier, and then set about lowering the...

For the migratory residents of Harvardr, who have for generations been able to relocate as weather and nature's bounty have dictated, they have had to find methods of business that might seem unorthodox to most.
Her physical examination revealed almost nothing. It would appear, by all medical accounts that Linca was simply sleeping but such a thing was medically impossible. During her time running every noninvasive test she could think of, the horrific...
The storm raged across the isle. Riding against the furious rain, the thundering of hooves against the sodden earth kicked specks of mud that clung to human and animal; Yeva the Living would not be deterred. Hailstones bit into her arms and...
She could only guess, by the burning of her eyes and exhaustion in her body, that day had turned to night and it was likely sometime before dawn. In Cylus, she had no way of really knowing, there was no suns to demonstrate the passing of...
The hail was unrelenting, dropping onto the group of traveler's with a score to settle. Gregory and Stiv, the Air Elements, did their best to raise their round shields above their mounts as chunks of frozen ice pounded like drums at war. Tasked with the...
Thank you for your help, ' It was beyond invaluable now. When she had been granted her writ seasons ago, the medic had never imagined actually putting the gift to use. But with the dreaded snowfall and rumors of Chief...
Rorom tries to enjoy some fishing in Havardr, while bringing up fish for food for the many refugees and homeless stricken by the recent disasters. But unknown to him or the other fishermen, a lone sea wolf has ventured into their territorial waters, while scaring away the whales and other fish.
Rorom’s sloop was moored by the pier near Havadr. Not wanting to show off to the other fishermen, he decided to go as they did, in small fishing dinghies. He had his net, his spear, oars, and a few other things besides. He was intent on catching as much fish for the people as...
