Being early in the Chilling Season, the river was about at its lowest stage, and the water felt warm compared to the morning air. The river being coldest during the Shifting Season, which started each Cycle, and fullest during the Drenching Season. Carried supplies had been suspended from a...

The Katalian Wildcats were disappointingly void of curiosities, though they did have some foodstuff worth liberating. Plum Orchard was the name given to a Spiofthest community, by South Road Fair, for the literal expanse of plum trees. In addition to providing a tradable amount of fruit in its...

Lathir nods, mostly to himself since no one should be really paying him any mind. "North sounds good to me. I do not know much about the items we need, but I have your back if we encounter any danger."

Instead of only being Plumeir, the Investigators now included two more members. Hopefully the additional sets of eyes, ears, and thoughts would lead to some positive results. As the three walked through the mining community, northward, to find the place where the adolescents had been taken...

Sphynx looks at the others and says, "We should probably take that torch, though I am not one to be carrying it. I will scout the area ahead. Let me see if I can stay just beyond the light."2 d20 = 9, 13

This had very quickly and decidedly become a one-sided battle. The Sojourn Six were far superior to the ten katalian Wildcats who had made the mistake of attacking them. In less than four seconds all of the indigenous headhunters had been crippled or killed. None escape their fatal mistake. Only...

Fully coming to terms with the fact that the party was directly under an enemy stronghold, the five youths readied themselves and began to carefully proceed back up into the kitchen above. The significance was unknown but one of the mystically illuminated globes was no longer aglow. All had been...

Having come looking for assistance, Plumeir was to gain the aid of two of the former Outliers. Hopefully it would be enough. No further discussion of speculation was going to merit greater knowledge. The only thing left to do was to return to the scene of the crime. It was a day’s walk from...

Britta takes her stance about half a second before Antapkos throws his javelin, and Cormorante and Kuwaia reach their opponents. The javelin from Antapkos slices into the abdomen of his chosen target, cutting a nasty gash just below the rib cage, markedly slowing but not dropping the Wildcat. As...

The other members of the party look at the primary action of Garindell with an expression of curiosity and confusion, all, except Brenda, who rubs her forehead and shakes her head. When she speaks, she seems to be in mid-thought. It does not, at first, make sense. “We are too young, Garin. You...

Sphynx scratches his head with his left hand. "Hmm. I have never been lucky before. That was interesting. I guess we should wait a bit for that stuff to cool down before we go back to where we were or look through what fell out of that thing."

Though he was not one of his contacts, and he did not know his name, Taylar recognized Plumeir. The three specific, other Maldrogs that were used as contacts at the Mining community thought highly of the man, unlike any of the other clerks, whom they called stick wavers. This particular clerk...

Oorvid introduced himself, as well, explaining that he was not a really bulky Shimadow, he was an Orngaddrin, a tribe of Mhytres. Star Wolfess, having grown up around Maldrogs, was familiar with the species of Mhytre, though never having seen so many extremely pale peoples. The group explains...

The strangely painted youths fan out as they run after the retreating Sprthnt and Kuwaia, making crying sounds like wildcats. They likely suspect that the two are running toward friends, for they fan out, parallel to the river as they go. Each holds his spear as if intending it for melee. Two...

Eight days were required to follow the river from South Road Fair to Plum Orchard. Observant travel only offered the bare minimum of game, with the specific forays provided little more. The trip was pleasant enough and the sights, sounds, and smells provided new insight to the unfamiliar...

The party did not immediately come to a decision on the matter. Askari and Volki thought it might be better to split the party, with them returning to the nearest pergola and coming back through the familiar tunnel. As they could not be dissuaded from this, Astrid, Oorvid, and Wrenn were left to...

Turning at the sound of others entering the Homage, the Markidian man nodded at the Maldrog man and Centrin woman. Recognizing that they would be joining the conversation, he started over. He conveyed that about a season past, a hostile band of men who looked to be nothing more than members of...

Late one evening, a solitary traveler came into Refuge, along the road to Outpost. The man looked as if he had walked all day. He was slightly winded. The man, though unrecognized, was a Markidian and wore a tunic marking him as someone of Kingdom employ, though he was most definitely not...
