31st of Ymiden 720

There was darkness heavy in the air of Woe's master bedroom. He wore his bedclothes as often he did, but was deep under the blankets, groaning off the effects of the beers he'd shared with Fleaface earlier. Sleep wasn't coming easy for all that drinking. The reddened sunrise...

You're a soldier, now, aren't you? asked Juliano's sister, Luiza, in Vahanic. She sat with him on the exterior balustrade that led from the upper floor door to the rigid-lined brick path of a Gleam street. She leaned against the railing, long braid drifted in the evening...

She always wore it pulled too tightly to the sides, strained over her little scalp and tied off into pigtails that curled at the ends. Vito had heard after the previous trial’s service that her...

18th of Ymiden 720

Woe had his task laid out fairly clearly by the councilman of the Hospitality Guild. While he waited for the Faldruunium to come in from the many orders he sent out, he'd sent Fleaface to put out his feelers in the various Guilds, to learn the politics of the economic machine of...

5th of Ymiden 720

Woe had combed through the lesser of the tomes that bequeathed to him by Stoll for days. By the third day, he'd come to the conclusion that Stoll's early thoughts on Hone had taught him all he needed to know. Doubtless, there was some hidden wisdom, or else a secret note hidden...

2nd of Ymiden 720

The pages of the grimoire were soft, of lambskin if Woe was any judge. Having worked in a tannery for much of his early life, the ex-slave was well acquainted with many forms of animal hide. Yes, He reflected, Most probably lambskin parchment. So another page was flipped, with...

Coldheart Hostel

Description: An unassuming townhouse on the outskirts of the Gleam. From the outside, it's made of the same, dark granite stonework that the rest of the city appears enamored of. Sparse bloodlights and cave grapes grow from the sides of the grounds of the townhouse, vining...

26th of Cylus 720

The streets of the Gleam were well named. Everything was so... shiny and new. Like a brand new puppet unwrapped from its boxing, the epoxy finish still evident and unmarried by use. Underneath it all, of course, Keque was well aware of the rot that pervaded the city...
