While the journey to the lake was uneventful, when Cricket and Emma arrived at the lake 2 days later, in the early morning, Cricket could immediately tell something was off about the lake. “Do you feel that, Emma?” Cricket asked, doing up his coat. “The stra...

In a featureless void, Vordea floated while deep in thought. Her tentacles were amusing themselves by fighting and making shapes. She had a conundrum, following the healing and release of Neptis. She needed a new High Priest. But how was she going to do it? ...

At the Great Cathedral in Gilnas City, word had finally begun to reach them of what transpired in Dragonpost a few weeks earlier. “Have you heard the news, Sir?” A man wearing a waistcoat asked the Priest seated at the desk. “Indeed I have, Duncan. Release...

The response to such a spectacle was exactly what Vordea had hoped for and more. People thronged to the Great Cathedral, and the city guards were attempting to maintain order as hundreds, if not thousands of people struggled to get a glimpse of the famously ta...

“You’re resigning?” Taenya asked Neptis, as Neptis packed what little belongings she owned. “I’ve made my decision. My lady no longer protects you from me. I must walk the path laid out for me.” Neptis replied, pausing to look at Taenya. “If you force my han...

“An arousal spell? Devilish.” Vordea said, between wheezes of laughter. “I always knew you had it in you.” “Hmph. Unrequited love and regrets suited her better.” Neptis pouted, finishing her drink. “I hope she enjoyed herself, though.” “I know you didn’t s...

Neptis found herself in another bloody battle, hired by some Lord to fight some other Lord. The specifics were never important, just that people were willing to pay for the skills of a Divine Battle-mage. Turned out all those years of lessons with various weap...

While they weren't having a meeting that day, Vordea was lounging in the Inn with Vaust during a slow period, draped across a chair like an oversized cat. But she felt it begin immediately. "It’s begun." Vordea suddenly said. "Vaust, it’s begun!" she yelled t...

Neptis suddenly understood. She could see the entire battlefield, all the dead, all the blood. It was flowing like a river, and she was the destination. She turned her gaze, and the river shifted to follow it. Spotting the remaining soldiers fleeing from her, ...

“The apotheosis has finished.” Eigengrau stated to Agbus. “The flow of time has diverged. We are on a new course. This shape must be walked anew.” “The wheel spins on the God of War. I am calling an emergency meeting. Inform Sargon and Zalas at once.” Vordea...

Meeting Prelude Neptis felt Vordea's presence immediately, but the threatening aura of the Primordial Goddess no longer felt dangerous, it felt like that of an equal. Neptis could only smile when she saw the dimunitive Goddess striding up to her through the r...

“You’re coming with us?” Rebecca asked Hamlin. “There’s no denying fate, Miss Montague.” Hamlin replied. “You heard what Eigengrau said to us last week. We’re going to travel together for many years.” “Still, I expected us to cross paths again later.” “Cons...

Rebecca heard her opportunity not long after leaving the Inn. Two humans were giggling in the woods not far out of sight of the graveyard. A young man and a woman, from the sounds of it, she thought. She hated the idea of drinking a man’s blood, but she also d...

“Boss, no.” Jack said. “It’ll be easy!” Rebecca insisted. “This is too fucking weird even for you.” Jessie said. “Cradle robber.” Marv added. “You’re a bit old for this.” “I don’t want to fuck her!” Rebecca yelled. “What’s everyone so worked up about?” Ha...

“Hamlin, a word?” Rebecca suddenly asked from inside the coffin as the sun was beginning to set. They were through Dragonbone Pass and less than 2 hours from Dragonpost. “Yes, Rebecca?” Hamlin responded, not breaking pace. “We can’t go directly to the Univer...

The Hanged Man had all the hallmarks of a tavern of ill-repute, from the décor to the location. The entrance itself was hidden at the end of the narrow alley, behind a door marked 'Sealed by order of The University'. Without the password, the door opened to a ...

Vordea was frustrated. So far her search in Karand had been entirely fruitless, not one person she encountered was even remotely worthy of being her High Priest. It seemed Karand was full of wastrels and pathetic lumps of flesh wasting their gift of sapience. ...

“I’m telling you, there’s something weird about her.” Robson said to another man. “What, the passenger who boarded just before we left? The young lady?” The man asked. “You said she paid an entire pound for passage. That’s overpriced, but not weird.” “She kn...
