Looking up from his pondering Lucan fixed us with his burning eyes and announced “You have to stop me”. I was torn between curiosity about what was going on and concern about Lucan’s vampiric ability to bend the will of other to his own. I tried not to meet his gaze, looking over his shoulder […]
Things needed to be sorted out. We were not the only survivors of the war-forged attack on the train, though most it’s crew were dead. Toryil and War-Forged searched Grilsha and Lucan’s cabin but found nothing new. As I prepared him for burial I took a few moments to look over Roewyn’s body for anything […]
The sun dawned on what looked like it was going to be a sunny day with nothing further happening that night. That morning, as I re-learnt my spells, I made a couple of break-thoughts in my continued quests to master the Arcane. I was able to commit to memory a couple of spells that had […]
Despite a brisk wind and an uncomfortable pillow, in the form of the sturdy wall of Sterngate, I soon fell asleep. I don’t know how long I slept but I was awoken all too soon by a frightened whimpering noise. It took me a few moments to identify the source of the noise, it was […]
There were four air-skiffs in all, each with about six people in. Three were pulling up to the deck; one about half way along each side and the third at the prow only about fifteen feet from where Altera, Toryil and I were. The forth looked like it was trying to remain stationary about thirty […]
The glow of the elemental ring was a bad sign, it meant that the air-ship was preparing to depart. With a burst of speed we reached the base of the docking-tower. There were two ways up to the mooring area, a lightning-lift and a set of stairs. The lift was somewhere above us and it […]
War-Forged came up with a plan to increase our rate of travel to above walking speed. While he was generally a little slower then a human War-Forged could run continually without getting tired. With Toryil, Altra, Fraiya and myself doubled up on the two remaining horses and War-Forged (and Altera’s wolf) running along beside we […]
As we readied our weapons I wracked my brains for what I knew of gorillas. Hairy hominids native to the King‘s Forest, not carnivorous by nature but incredibly strong and dangerous when cornered. War-Forged led the way, shield in one hand and war-hammer in the other, as we followed a path that led deeper into […]
It was good to be back. From where I was standing I could make out Dura District to my right and the solid edifice of Moorgrave University no more then two hundred yards away. The question at the forefront of our minds was “what should we do now?” We needed somewhere with a little privacy […]
Judging from it’s dimensions The Cloud’s Destiny was at the smaller end of the scale of Lyrandar Airships but that didn’t detract from her being a remarkable vessel. She was constructed, like all airships, from soarwood from the elven kingdoms to the south. Every panel of wood was a work of art, finely carved and […]
