Company: Memories | Theme: Danse Macabre | Thoughts: What's left to do?| Mood: Sad, nostalgic
When the man who had taught her to play the fiddle, and was like a father to her, died, Lorraine was left with little. Her own personal belongings as well his fiddle, and all his notes...

43rd of Ymiden Arc 719
Company: Her thoughts | Theme: Death | Thoughts: Concentrating on a task | Mood: Hoping not to be killed
Lorraine would find herself wandering both lost, and completely aware of where she was. She had traveled through this part of the Savannah on many occasions before all...

Bastard's Grove, Yaralon
32nd Ymiden, 719

The Coven, all things considered, was not as blatantly evil as Tio had thought it would be. The childish side of him had been expecting a huge, looming castle of black stone, with a swarms of dark mages in black hoods cackling madly about their latest...

“I told you, I'm gonna go get them.” - Balthazar Black vs The Hallway Part 2

30 Ymiden 719
Balthazar spent most of the walk from Jeeb's house to the tavern known as The Crooked Want trying to decipher the poorly scrawled note he had found in the mage hunter's pocket. With everything he...

“He didn't find anything of note except a reminder to pick up some merigolds from the Temple of Raskalarn before mid day.” - Balthazar Black vs The Hallway Part 1

30 Ymiden 719
Balthazar hovered over the entrance to the basement for a few moments before stepping aside. Come on out, we...

“”

30 Ymiden 719
He was running. He had just freed his hands and now he was running but he did not know where he was running too. He just needed to break away, to break free. And then a knocking at the door woke him up. It had been a strenuous thirty trials for Balthazar Black who sat up...

“The gruffy man slapped Balthazar across the face with an open palm and the whole tavern went quiet.” - Bottled Rage Part 1

2 Ymiden 719
For a few minutes, Balthazar was very confident that he would have no trouble winning this duel of the spear. So confident that he had let his mind...

“”

2 Ymiden 719
Balthazar remembered the way it had felt to wake up the first day of Ymiden and realize his sparks were gone... well not gone but dormant. He remembered the way that it had felt different... felt wrong. Balthazar hadn't been without his magic in a long time, even if he had...

101 Ashan 719 | Azrael Blackfire | Yaralon
Azrael had spent many trials of Ashan doing little more than preparing himself for the enemies he made. He knew the Broken Blades would come for him sooner or later. Their warriors thus far had proven failures but sooner or later one of them was going to...

24 Ymiden 718

Around the Crag’s, there was a bounty. A bounty that Wildheart wanted to snag. He had been waiting for breaks now. He nestled between a few rocks. It wasn’t like the bounty was particularly glorious or grand, in fact, it was a bit of a shit bounty. But he knew the guy and he wanted...

Yaralon, Tio's Sanctuary
31st Ymiden, 719

So this Ellasin woman is dangerous?

Very. Be careful Tio: she is without a doubt the most powerful necromancer ever known.

In all the time he'd known her Tio had never seen his attunement master, Thena, look worried. She was always peaceful and...

♣ Ashan 33rd, 719 ♣

♣ Ashan 33rd was always a weird trial, even for the people of Yaralon. With the land so steeped in corruption from the fractures that were as natural as the wildlife, many always looked to this trial with silent fear. One would think Edasha had come and made a public...

7th of Ymiden, Arc 719
“To be perfectly honest with you, Marken, I don’t think that this is really necessary.” Prae admitted as he settled down on the humans floor, folding his knees underneath himself. “I just- maybe I’m not understanding it properly, but isn’t it kind of a...” He hesitated,...

Bastard's Grove, Yaralon
40th Ymiden, 719

Let's see now... A little to the left? No, that's not right...

With tentative steps Tio shuffled forwards, tapping the ground before him with his umbrella to make sure he didn't stumble over anything. Although he had the ability to 'see' out of his...

4th of Ymiden, Arc 719
Praetorum carefully relit the fireplace, as Edyn paced behind him, muttering furiously to herself. “—never heard of flaying fire before, but I suppose we’ve never had to, have we? Can all mages do it, or is it just because the two of us are defiers as well?—”

Shifting over...

5th of Ymiden, Arc 719
It had taken an embarrassingly long time for Prae to notice the book on his bedside. In complete fairness to himself though, he’d been out of the house pretty much every trial since the turn of the season, and it was a fairly small, unassuming looking book. At least by...

4th of Ymiden, Arc 719
I'm fine, Praetorum. Edyn pushed weakly at Prae, and he caught her hand easily, examining it.

You aren't. Look, your hands are shaking. Prae's tail twitched in concern, bumping up against some of Edyn's too small furniture. Edyn, seriously, just... just lie down or...

Saun 40, 718, Time of Trial unknown

Within Armoire Adrift, time was meaningless. There was no sun here, but it was not a land drenched in darkness. There was more than enough light, and color was abound, colors that no mere mortal could perceive. But the source of the light was not evident. It...

Zi'da 93, 718

It was midtrial in Yaralon, the sun drooping low over the sky, as Cylus was nearly upon the land. This late in the season, it never reached the height of noon. The city had been all abuzz about the arrival of Mama Bear and her subsequent demand that three relatively unknown...

6th of Ashan, Early Morning 719

It took her a moment to get her bearings. When her eyes opened, and she beheld the scene around her, it seemed she was in someone's personal shrine to one of the Immortals or perhaps something worse. There were burning braziers, but a distinct lack of iconography,...

5th of Ashan 719

Mirage danced on the fringes of every tree and island in the midst of the South of Maiden’s Refuge. Tidal swamp waters rose and fell as if the land itself breathed in ragged, dying breaths. All the while, Alora sought through it all, making her way toward what she supposed must be...

28th Trial, Ashan, 719a
Yaralon
Midday

They were a strange yet simple party, marching out of the Harbor along the cliffs. No holy man or priests were among them, yet it was clear from their mien and cargo they were there to see off a comrade. The corpse they carried between them was clue...

25 Ashan 719 | Azrael Blackfire | Bastard's Grove
Azrael dashed through the grove with his bow in his hand and one arrow in his quiver. He couldn't hear anything over his own heart beating in his ears as he leapt over a fallen tree and into a clearing. In the clearing there was a pond full of a...
