The Hot Cycle has Ymiden (83 Trials) and then Saun (40 Trials) which are open for you to play. All new threads from June 1st 2022 - September 30th 2022 should be timestamped within one of those two seasons.
Please see Timekeeping for more information and reach out to a member...
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. You'll note that there are now separate...

On the 38th Saun, all across Scalvoris, fairies suddenly appear in front of (apparently) random individuals. The fairy appears and asks the PC if they'll come with them to Sweetwine and help them. Should the PC ask any questions, the fairy will simply explain that...
One days travel on foot or mount from Scalvoris Town, Sweetwine Wood is aptly named for the abundance of Sweetwine Vines that are scattered throughout. Tall trees thickly cover the area, canopies overlapping to form a rich coverage of foliage once you move past the outskirts. The sum of light that...
And so - by many different routes and across lots of different paths, they arrived. Kisaik was charging, making his way bravely from the lodge to .... well, somewhere along the line Wendy must have teleported them, because he was in a distinct and unique...
Winston clapped his hands together with an air of determination, letting off a small puff of white powder. It had been a long day, but he had made a new acquaintance and he planned to convert said acquaintance into a friend , possibly even a good...
Vega leaned forward and stroked the neck of her dragonling. Thanks, Martha, she said quietly and she swung her leg over and dismounted. She'd flown over to the Sweetwine Wood because she wanted to gather some herbs and plants - mushrooms too - that you just...
The oven was going and the smell of freshly baked bread was thick in the air. More specifically the smell of freshly baked muffins for his new signature dish was thick in the air. Winston has almost become oblivious to the smell of flour, eggs and...
Old Patsy's wagon was well overdue repair and had been limping along until it broke recently while Patsy was out one day shopping. Winston had just been so busy recently with the contest, practising his new (previously non-existent) savoury signature dish,...
It is a relenting day in Ashen and there is a hint that the cold might begin to give way for the warmer season ahead any day now, though the cold still bit at the exposed parts of a person, without remorse. Tiggy is going about its business when Granny asks them to...
Just set out of earshot of the Crystal Lake , in a quiet little patch of the forest there lies a small but colorful farmstead. Rather than cattle, crops or seed though, this farm milks bees... Yes... Milks bees. Or so Winston tells it to anyone he meets, which to be...
There were a number of things unusual about the hare tracks that Oram saw in the fresh snow. The first thing was, again, that the tracks were there at all. Snow had fallen heavily upon Scalvoris in the preceding trials. Not as deep as had fallen the arc previously, when the traveler...
At the cusp of Cylus and Ashan, Woe often was struck with a strangely pleasant melancholy. It reminded him of winters long gone, early ashans spent in his younger years finding out who he was. Considering that he knew he was Mortalborn now, he supposed he was still quite young....
The mer stood at the edge of the pond, watching the dozen or so figures approaching him through the trees. It was early Ymiden, and early as well in the trial, early enough not to be too hot yet, although the rising sun promised plenty of heat to come. The water would be cool,...
Rumours of a Tunawa atop Sweetwine’s turtles had reached Wisps earknots two handfuls of suns ago, or so she reckoned. She had yet to meet another Tunawa since arriving in Sylvaris. In fact she’d met hardly anyone not flora, fauna or insectivorous since settling in Sweetwine...
After the incident with the Drawer Dragon at Shellknight Lodge, Kisaik had been reluctant to try his turtle whistle once ore, and try to strike a tune that could attract turtles, or reallyl any reptile of a non-threatening variety. While he had nothing against the scaley ones...
Unlike the last time he had been in the Woods, Kori'än wasn't taking all that much care to remain hidden ― he wasn't really hunting, and he supposed a giant turtle would be hard to miss, even if he wasn't being extremely careful. If Ol' Tuck was even real....
Oram crouched and listened to the din of bear and thwarthides shouting at each other, trying to decide what to do next. Oram had crossed paths with thwarthides before, and had managed to interact with them without provoking violence, which was no mean feat,...
A resentful committee of vultures watched from branches overhead while Oram examined the bear carcass near the base of the tree, from which the traveler had -not without difficulty- evicted the carrion birds just bits before. Even though the carcass had been skinned it was not hard...
Chip was with the brothers Arcio in the middle of the Sweetvine. They'd arrived there of course through the use of Saoire's whistle, which took him as well as any who shared his purpose and errand to retrieve the turtles for Faldrass. Thus were the turtle enthusiasts... no,...
Turtle Ridge was only a couple breaks’ walk away for the active Rangers, and those breaks largely passed without incident. Until Oram and Sh’ron saw the wolves.
Oram counted seven of them, interspersed among the trees on the hillside, grey and lean and alert,...
It was time. The men were assembled. Jim, Tim, Bobbio the brothers Arcio, and of course the illustrious Turtle expert himself, Widget Tucker Gubbins of the clan Gubbins. Not to mention the Tunawa whose grave task it was to retrieve these turtles to Faldrass, where they might...
Snarkle Swamp is a a swamp that is located deep in the Sweetwine Woods. It offers a wealth of resources to those who know how to navigate its depths. Fish make a ready food source as do some of the other denizens of the swamp. Plants offer a source of food as well, but many of...
Oram gathered up Choir and Sh’ron (and Mule) and promptly drew off from the thwarthide camp. Ideally, he would have looked for the wild man’s tracks before leaving, but he did not wish to push his luck. The first thing he did when he saw Sh’ron was thank him...
The search party had -albeit hesitantly- returned to the Ranger Headquarters, leaving Oram with Sh’ron Ng’yi to track the thwarthides they believed to have Priscilla. Though the pair could not know it once they parted ways with their comrades, the Rangers...
And so, fully equipped and with riders who controlled them, the took to the skies. These flying creatures were beautiful and, alongside the member of the Elements who held on to the reins, they took two individuals each. It wasn't after all, a long journey. They flew over Scalvoris Town and they...
