    Door to Nowhere

    Astarte has 8 measures of salt remaining, Plumeir has 7, and Taylar has 6. Unaware that the wind dies down enough each evening for the dust to somewhat settle, which improves the line of sight, the party follows the nearest line of peaks as it progresses into the Pelimonra controlled community...

    Upward from Land's End

    Season: Drenching. Day: 55 Quite oddly, as the milky liquid dried it turned as black as charcoal and had the consistency of fresh, unwashed sugar. The substance was easy enough to scrape into a pouch. Whatever animal was closing in on the party, it seemed unnaturally intelligent. Instead of...

    Door to Nowhere

    Season: Drenching. Day: 50 The tavern is marked. As the Maldrogs walk away, Kol looks up at the hazy sky, pinpointing the Daylight despite the dust in the air. He says mostly to himself but loud enough to be heard, “Yes, it is time.” For whatever reason the group was waiting remains unknown...

    Upward from Land's End

    Upward from Land's End

    Season: Drenching. Day: 53 Sprthnt has no difficulty butchering the pig, making maximum use of the meat and recovering all of the possible hide, which produces 60% of coverage for a normal person.

    Door to Nowhere

    Season: Drenching. Day: 50 As the big man begins to respond, the woman standing near him touches his arm and responds, first. “I am called Karen. For merely three of you to travel and not mention the loss of other members gives me great indication of your prowess and potential. I can sense the...

    Upward from Land's End

    Season: Drenching. Day: 53 Siofrita and Sprthnt nod at each other in agreement on which pig to shoot. Each draws and fires simultaneously, or so close to it so as to be indistinguishable. The swine goes down with a squeal and some kicking of its hind leg. It is not quite dead but will not be...

    Upward from Land's End

    Season: Drenching. Day: 50 Typical for the particular proclivity of the Da’Roneh, in addition to foodstuff, each individual was adorned with a different skull fetish. They were determined to belong to a hyrax, parrot, bandy, hawk, jay, and teal. Five of the six also carried a curious stone...

    Upward from Land's End

    Season: Drenching. Day: 50 The Da’Roneh would have fared better had they remained at a distance. At the very least their lives might have been longer and more might have been able to flee. The Sojourn Six prove superior at melee distance. Antapkos, Cormorante, Britta, and Kuwaia can all...

    Door to Nowhere

    Season: Drenching. Day: 50 The remaining Maldrogs stand when Taylar addresses them. None takes an aggressive posture. The large man, who had previously nodded and is likely that party’s leader, responds, “Möge die Erde dich erden. Mögest du immer den Weg nach Hause kennen,” which is to say...

    Upward from Land's End

    Season: Drenching. Day: 50 The enemy fans out to match the movement of the party. If the two parties were to run full out at one another, six seconds would be required to close the distance. At three seconds of time, those who are able, initiate projectile and mystical assaults. The stones...
