Round 29
The Dolod, Twilight Pioneers
Nellen

Led by The Lucid Ones [Issi, Geleg, and Igeaegi]
D5 ; M2 ; O3 ; F10 ; I1

Actions

1. [FAITH Miracle]
   The Dolod for generations now have sought the guidance and trust of the Guardians, the most benevolent of the great spirits. With the conflict against Artavazd escalating rapidly, the Dolod decide the time has come to bridge the gap between mortal and Guardian. From each of the Sanctums, the Dolod capable of treading the reality of the supernatural entities meet within the Guardian Dream after weeks of meditation.
   
   With every Lucid One present, the Dolod erect a bridge between the mindscape of the protectors of Ardra and the bodies of the great mortal leaders. The bridge, though, is tenuous enough that its connections are not even passed down a Dolod memory-line. Instead, it must be forged anew with and by each individual. The might of the Guardians, though, is beyond the capacity of mortal bodies. With care, one Guardian can bless an individual while the others offer solace. Even with this, there are sacrifices made by each who accept this semidivine gift as their bodies are rent by the raw life force of the mightiest of Ardra's natives.
   
   In practice, any leader of a civilization that is capable of easily accessing the Guardian Dream can pledge themselves to one of the Guardians, a choice that is made for life. This must be done at the start of a ruler's reign OR, if no Guardian is chosen at that point, by conducting a special ritual during their reign. Once chosen, the leader may not change which Guardian they are pledged to.
   
   Depending on the Guardian chosen, the leader will suffer a physical change reflecting the strain on their mortal form caused by enlightenment.
   
   If the Great Mother is chosen, the leader's eyes become milky white and filled with intensity, though their vision is unaffected. Their veins stand out from their flesh and are the color of ivory.
   
   If the Father of Rivers is chosen, the leader's tears turn to acid, leaving green, ragged scars down their face. Tears near-constantly run down these tracks from eyes that are at once haggard and full of rapturous joy.
   
   If Golden Flame is chosen, the leader's neck bursts into fire like a mane. When the flames subside, they leave a great scar around their throat, whose edges are constantly alight with small golden sparks, as if threatening to burn again at any moment. Their irises turn golden and glow faintly.
   
   If the Storm Bird is chosen, the leader's face and torso are marked with branching scars as though they had been struck by lightning. Their gaze hardens as though they are nearly always angry, and small streaks of lightning can be seen deep within their pupils.

   When a new leader is chosen for a player, that leader can, assuming they have easy access to the Guardian Dream, pledge to a specific Guardian. This choice cannot be changed for so long as that leader remains in power. For leaders that neglect (or were unable) to do this at their inauguration, a Faith action may be taken at any point to make the pledge.
   
   Great Mother - You can use the Mother's Milk in rituals to oppose the Blightspawn, demonstrating her power to those who witness the effect. You gain a +2 bonus to conversions in and adjacent to regions in which Blightspawn were defeated in the previous round.
   
   Father of Rivers - You bring the blessing of the Father of Rivers to any region you choose to focus on. You may take a Faith action to increase the yield of a region with an organic (for instance, one that comes from animals or plants) resource. For two rounds, each owned TP in the region counts as two TPs for all purposes (except attempted buyouts or the number of TPs present in a region). You may only take this Faith action once per round.
   
   Golden Flame - Golden Flame's pride flocks to you, ready to aid you on your quest to destroy the Blightspawn. You gain one unit of Golden Lions. These function like a normal land unit except that they may only be used in battles against Blightspawn, automatically replenish if lost in battle, and will only fight if the leader is in command. These Golden Lions also count as a Golden Lion TP owned by the leader.
   
   Storm Bird - You gain a +1 to duels and -1 to distance losses thanks to your limited control over the weather.

Rumors and Stories

• The Dolod begin spreading word that the Standing Stones ought to be examined more thoroughly. The Sentinels are, perhaps, mistaken in their efforts. More to come next round eventually.

Round 29

Actions:

• Aste, bottling some lightning
  
  • Open - Hoard Treasure - Raise 2 Treasure with Argent Heart
  • Open - Hoard Treasure - Raise 2 Treasure with Argent Heart
  • Opulence - Buyout 316.1 [Silphium] (Roll: 12)
  • Opulence - Aid Students of Wonder with Studies of Perfection
  • Intrigue - Investigate – As the lightning coursed through Aste, it forced her blood out of her capillaries and into her epidermis leaving fractal scars. The insane temperatures also caused the dagger and snake shaped jewelry she was wearing to heat up causing third-degree burns in the impression of metallic serpent scales. However, if one thought this would end her single ended search “to capture the power of faith purely through a mastery of natural science” then they would be wrong. The only thing her failed experiment proved, to her at least, was that she was close. Picking up the key to the vault of Kursaal, Aste only thought that her investigation demonstrated that she needed a more “worthy vessel”. Commandeering the local Guardian Sworn Laboratory, Aste brought into the sanctum the Argent Heart, her mother’s last investment and acquisition. The Heart was an arcane tool, and if her research had shown anything, it was that mundane containers could not handle the raw power from the Firmament. Perhaps the perfect sphere of seemingly molten silver could withstand the energies involved? Aste hoped that the metaphysical connection between the Orb and the concept of wealth might also aid in harnessing the electricity of Fortune. What could create worth could be considered worthy. The fact that the Heart was of blighted origin did not escape her, she was after all, an adherent of the Great Mother, an alchemist, and had long wanted to study this artifact – but per her studies she had considered that the blight in the Heart would actually help facilitate this next stage in her scholarship. Blight was preternaturally cold and could act as a cooling rod for the thermal energies that would come from the Firmament, conceivably slowing and controlling the chain reaction caused by the conflagration of the Firmament’s iridescent light. And if the Firmament burned through the blight and purified the vessel instead of being harnessed, that too could prove useful, Aste thought, as she set up her gamble. For that was what this was – the lineage of the Odds-Mistress given to chance – she could not help but raise the stakes over and over and over again until hopefully, beyond faith, she could strike jackpot. Finally, to complete the setup, Aste borrows the Shield of Uzii feathers from her brother, Lekking Albatross, knowing from her late father, Laughing Wolf, that the feathers that make the shield are in fact Hrazii feathers. The Hrazii, per her knowledge are quasi-angelic beings, which serve Mamut’s Guardian, the Storm Bird, a being of lighting! As such, they, through their physical properties allowing them to fly through mortal storms and their metaphysical connection to the concept of electricity, could also prove useful in controlling the Firmament’s own storm, almost as a containment vessel around the reactor that was the Heart. Between the containment of the feathers and the heart, Aste inserts a mesh of Strife Catchers, from the Student's own stores, to regulate the energies between the two artifacts and surrounds the entire apparatus with those gambled pieces of other alchemical metals such as Black Iron, White Bronze and even Orichalcum which had over the years accumulated in Kursaal's vaults as their owners wagered and lost and those wagers too speak towards what Aste was trying to do. These risks must, per her studies of the Firmament, be able to be made manifest. And so, setting up her prior failed experiment, with the Key to the Vault of Kursaal, acting as a conduit and generator along of line of anted metals known to be more than just base elements, directing the beliefs of all those that believe in chance, risk and fortune from the Firmament towards the Argent Heart, the Blight in the Heart acting as cooling rods and the Hrazii feathers and Strife Catchers creating a containing dome around the silver, Aste tries rolling the dice again. (Roll: 25)

  • Intrigue - Secret Action

Non-Actions:

• Champion of the Ko-Ball tournament: The Singhön Strikers
• Aste does not resist the buyout of Amaryllis Flower although she does complain that Grandma is making her life incredibly difficult and points out that this is in no way to treat family.
• Aste replies to Aneirin:
  
  “My mother had no love lost for my uncle and she didn’t have to lose it in any game. I would gladly turn him over, but you seem to misunderstand the powers of this state. Kursaal is a game board and the Odds-Mistress doesn’t control the pieces, she merely sets the rules. We will look for him, but can’t promise to find him. This city was built for lost souls and the losing of them. Of course, if you are willing to part with some gold to aid our search, the chances of success would surely rise. Would also help if you can ask Grandma to cut us a break, doesn’t help to lay a crises at my feet as soon as I start out. Some reward for saving Merlyn’s hot little body over and over to get cut loose and who knows what can get lost in the chaos”.
  
  [If Aneirin accepts the offer and Merine does not void POS’s vassalage status, Aste will roll intrigue against the Last Prisoner’s Hero Score (8). If she finds him (beats his roll), she will deliver him to NTK through non-action embassy action and to be delivered to ARK on NTK’s own schedule. The Last Prisoner’s reaction, if captured, will be decided when ARK receives them. Aneirin may also promise, either through gift or through NTK transfer up to 2 treasure, which Aste would immediately use (given the fungibility of treasure) on searching for the Last Prisoner (she will of course, gamble with such treasure). Aneirin could also gift 3 or 4 treasure, but such expensive search will have to wait a round given the current funds that Aste has. If Merine does successfully void POS’s vassalage status, then such search will be delayed while Aste deals with the political repercussions of the Kingdom’s reorganization.]
  
  
• Use a SOW Favor to Advance in Reputation 2->3. Aste also invites the crazier members of SoW to join her in her continued studies into the Firmament and Blight.
• Store Argent Heart in Guardian Sworn Laboratory.
• Generate 3 Treasure with passive income (28 TP owned at beginning of round) –> 6 Treasure owned beginning of round.

• Accept all tech from HEN (non-embassy action with HEN)
• Accept all tech from UBT (non-embassy action with UBT)
• Accept all tech and regions from NKT (non-embassy action with NKT).
• Accept all Embassies and Sanctums if offered or gifted.
• Aste supports all Conversions to Children of the Great Mother
• The remaining members of the Congress of the Honeyed Child support all conversions to the Boutique of the Corpse Flower
• Roll resist for any kidnapping, assassination or betrayal of ruler, hero (Carceral Adaptations CI active, Eyes Above tech active). Use liege diplomacy score (10) in response for any betrayals. Artifacts held bonus applied to betrayal resist. Resist any theft of any artifact (Eyes Above tech active) and any applicable Hero Bonuses (+2).

"We have not forgotten your sacrifice 12 years ago, and though this has been long in coming, it is time we honor our debts," spoke a booming voice around a small, stone room. The grey bleakness of the stone was pervasive, and cast a depressing air about the space, with only a small, barely- there fire in the corner doing anything to contrast the stone. Then again, what did one expect from a fortress built into the side of a mountain where caves used to run, a fortress named the Barrow of Honored Dead?

"My warriors are restless," the voice spoke again. It came from a man, dressed in long, woven furs. He stood tall, and and his cold eyes focused intently on the other men in the room. One was a warrior, dressed for battle, his black iron weapons a cold reminder of the ferocity the warrior could wield when called upon. The other was a bear, a massive beast with stark white fur and huge paws. He stood upon two legs, and sat quietly, guarding the room.

The first man, the great Chuluun Khan, hero of the Khanate's independence, spoke again. "My warriors are restless, and while I long for the peace we have seen these past years, it is not my people's way. Already, we are starting to hear reports of the younger men growing restless, causing trouble. I fear that peace may no longer be an option."

"Old friend, will you have them? Your Sentinels need warriors, and the Blight threatens us all."

The warrior to whom the message was spoke, Sentinel Valens, stepped up. He cleared his voice, and spoke....

"So, you see, we have come to help," the small, gray skinned humanoid finished. "In summation- it is unwise for one to fight off creatures of the Blight alone. It is something we must fight together. We are here. We will help." Under his breath, the speaker, named Fluff, added "So says the Thought King."

The Braye, gray- skinned humanoids only recently accepted into the might of the Stoneblood Khanate, had no trouble integrating themselves into society. Immediately recognizing the efficiency of the bureaucracy of the Braye, Chuluun Khan tasked the Braye with organizing the Khanate into a Kingdom, collecting all of the languages, religions, and census numbers together into a cohesive unit. Now, they worked to keep the logistics of running a diverse kingdom together, as well a certain special roles.

Fluff was one of those special ones. With a particular passion and natural inclination for logical reasoning, Fluff had impressed the Khan- who the Thought King had declared next to Fraiheeto, praise be to her. Now, he was an official emissary of the Khan to the Shandole, who the Khan had declared in need of the Khan's help. So it was. So it must be. Now, it was just Fluff's job to help them see that truth.

He waited for the fair elves to make their arguments.

The weary, anxious army camped on the edge of the valley- not quite inside the elven territory of A'shandoli, but almost. The army was restless, and an air of eager anticipation came from within. All around, young warriors readied their weapons, running through drills, or sparring with each other. Still others drank and feasted- for they had come for a fight, and they, the heirs of the Khanate, were ready!

News and Rumors

• What is Death, but Dreaming?
• It seems the Magi of Eauden have broken what truce had been established with the Children of Tarandi. But the fire in the hearts of the faithful in those northern lights has, it seems, been irrevocably dimmed. As of yet, the bloodbenders have not done their violence on the Children of the Great Mother, however, and so the Matriarch of the Children will not beseech the Great Mother herself to rise in their defense. And there were new faithful, across the scattered continents, in need of ministration. If the Dannu seek to ply their petty political games and thereby risk the World Soul by the weakening of her Guardians for the sake of punishing outreach to Merlyn, who yet remains beholden to the Night Kingdom and their close ally the Regent of the West Wind...let them. History would prove their close-mindedness foolhardy, and unlike the mist-veiled North, the kingdoms of Kiswa and Sikar had issues of meaning to attend to.

Next round- +1 Opu



Actions-

Military 1- defend region 75
After a mysterious hiatus, the Avicennians appear in force to defend the Pyroemerald mines from the Salt Demons. Amka arrives with three naval and six land units

Military 2- raise naval unit.
Due to expected losses, the Avicennians are repairing their military pro-actively.

Opulence 1- buyout trading post 2 in region 151.
Having established the means to effectively trade far from home, it seems a shame not to use it. An exorbitant amount of treasure is spent to secure a foot in the door of this region hitherto unknown to the Slothfolk. (I need to check the backlog to find out exact what penalties were bought off already by the previous player)

Opulence 2- buyout trading post 2 in region 193
What were the Avicennians up to that they suddenly have interests in random places? Actually knowing the language of this region, less effort is needed to secure this foothold, but it still makes a statement- Avicennians are on the Map! (Remaining treasure will be spent to reduce the penalties, as necessary)

Opulence 1- the Avicennians secure a source of glass from Citallo (81) with a Trade post buyout

Opulence 2- Pearls! Why do we not already have this!? Now we do, from the unnamed region 83. (Trade post buyout)

Opulence 3- As a prelude to future expansions, the Avicennians secure navigators from unnamed region 84.

Opulence 4- Not sure what to do with them, the Avicennians nevertheless set up a post to harvest Penguins from South Ogrontir (85 )

Diplomacy 1- Wishing to be rid of it, Tana gifts the Lion Hornet to SMI, as per their offer. They accept no payment at this time.


Diplomacy 1- establish embassy with The Symphony of Kalatar
I know literally nothing of these people, but they seem to like pretty sounds the way Slothfolk like shiny things? Maybe we can be friends?


News-
The Blighted Hero Amka has disappeared, never to be seen again. Maybe she was made to disappear, maybe she left. Who knows? The role of champion of Avicennia will henceforth be filled by her previously unmentioned son, Akama.

The Avicennians are planning to expand their Diplomatic and trade relationships, especially in Tarandi.

Soon, Tana will declare herself a Princess and hold a massive gala event, where Akama will also be presented to the world.

Expected Stat Gains: Military +1, Opulence +1

Actions

• [Military] For the proudly industrial and militaristic elves of House Harken, the losses against the Arag were the final straw. Long dissatisfied with the leadership of the Conclave of Spring, whose every decision had taken them from bad to worse, the Baron instigated a military coup and replaced the Vernal Scion, Asha-Shuran, with himself. The former Scion and the top administrative officials simply disappeared during the night, with the red banner of the newly christened Harken Barony unfurling from the battlements of the keep.
  
  Pursuing their belief of Blood and Steel, the Barony immediately went about raising troops, spending 1 Military Action to raise 1 Land Unit.
  
  
• [Military] The Baron recruits one of his sons, Magnus Harken, a proven swordsman and leader, for Hero status 8.
  
  
• [Military] Send Brienne to assist Ageless Lion with Epic Quest Burying the Past. Rolled a 10.
  
  
• [Opulence] As a symbol of the Barons foresight and their fortitude, the elves of Harken have set about building their own capital, Phoenicia. Like its mythological namesake, Phoenicia represents a rebirth, a renewal of a people who could only once look upon their leaders with the weary resignation of the downtrodden. Now, the sails of ships heavy with prize will fill the harbours and ports while the clanking of hammers of industry, construction and metallurgy blanket the newly formed streets of concrete and marble. Opulence 5: Raise City in Region 38
  
  
• [Opulence] Earnestly believing in individual enterprise tempered by civic duty, the Baron encourages his entrepreneurs and merchants to set sail for opportunities in lands both distant and domestic. Buy Out TP 1 of Sour Quinces in Ilia (38), using Lieges Opulence - 12

The Brythions

Leafhair Brythion [79] (Deceased)- Former Caretaker of Illia & the Deru, wearer of the Circlet of Leaf & Chain. Installed in the midst of a succession crisis, Leafhair transformed the governance of the Deru from a loose group of religiously aligned groves into a hereditary monarchy in a union with the neighbouring Illia peoples. Wed to Elora, Chosen of Illia, the two ruled in concert. Pursued by advancing age, Leafhair announced his intention to abdicate in favour of Esfrey on his 70th name day. This he did, and now serves as an adviser on the loose council that has developed around Esfrey's court in the Green Fields. He grieved for both his wife and son, and refused to believe the rumours that the dashing Sir Onfroy was to blame. With the reappearance of his youngest son Leafhair is a man at peace with the world, trusting in his children to protect Bhaile-Koma better than he ever could. Slipping into mild insanity in his later years, Leafhair rejoiced at his son Jofry's return, but soon barely remembered his disappearance. He spent much time reminiscing with his old Deru companions, themselves near to taking root, of his first days amongst the great trees, and the wonders of the forest he barely knew. At last he died peacefully napping in the woods, buried beneath his old friends, themselves taking root earlier that year.

Elora Brythion née Covenantes [57] (Deceased)- Former Chosen of Illia, join ruler of Illia & the Deru. Wed to Leafhair. A standout warrior in a strong warrior culture, Elora has led the peoples of Illia for three decades, since her choosing. She strengthened the power of the sightless ones, spiritual leaders & masons of Illia, made peace with the hill-dwellers by taking Norren the Mortal into vassalage, and presided over a prosperous aftermath of the new dawn. She and Leafhair have 3 children. Increasingly growing distant from her twin children, viewing them as straying from Illian traditions and exploiting their privileged positions, she spent increasingly more time with her youngest, Jofry. While still a formidable warrior, Elora's sanity began to fray, a congenital Covenantes failing her forebears traditionally pushed through until their deaths in battle. In her 57th year, Elora was found dead in her youngest son Jofry's chambers, flayed alive, her corpse already festooned with blooming flowers.

Esfrey Brythion [53] (Deceased) - Former Caretaker of the Illia & the Deru, Chosen of Illia, wearer of the Circlet of Leaf & Chain. Eldest daughter of Leafhair & Elora, Esfrey was a rambunctious and headstrong youngster, taking well to the traditional Illian trials. She proved a precocious student, achieving her right to bear spear & sling by age 10. Completing the trials at age 16 alongside her twin Esfrey was ecstatic to have been named heir to her father, and routinely arrived to take command of forces during exercises in the Green Fields. A reckless adrenaline-junkie Esfrey had an odd aversion to duelling, preferring to let Onfroy defend her honour while she prepared for her next escapade. Taking the circlet only fed Esfrey's appetite for adventure, and she spent most of her time hunting & leading mock battles, as well as scouring the woods for poachers and raiders. She seemed unfazed by Onfroy's transformation, welcoming him back to the capital with open arms. Outraged at her forced removal from the battlefield against the Orcs of Ixkarr Esfrey became dangerously aggressive and borderline unstable. Followed by defeat against the Master of Fire and Dust Esfrey crossed the borderline, requiring bodily restraint in her moments of madness. The Illian clans and dog-men's packs became dangerously autonomous during this period of intermittent rule, permitting the Listener to gain increasing sway. After a particularly bad fit on her return home Esfrey fell into a coma, finally dying at age 53.

Onfroy Brythion [86] - Eldest son of Leafhair & Elora, twin brother of Esfrey, Onfroy is a similarly headstrong youngster, although a little less confrontational than his twin, preferring more thoughtful methods of dealing with those who contest him in the trials. He has progressed similarly swiftly in his studies, achieving his right to bear spear & inscribe letters by age 10. Pressed into service as his twin's champion, Onfroy channels his resentment of the role as fury unleashed upon his opponents, maiming several peers Esfrey claimed had slighted her in some petty manner. Furious he was not named heir in his sister's place, believing his martial and intellectual prowess outstrips her own, Onfroy was sent away from council at age 17 to train under the Targiz hero Petal-Head. He returned a very different man, stronger, faster, leaner, able to tear his flesh and extend red thorns to pierce his foes. To duel the young knight is to die a slow death by blood loss as innumerable small cuts and slices from thorn after thorn drain the life from his foes. He stays close to his sister, her staunch defender and bodyguard. The foremost advocate for the Bouquet of the Corpse Flower within Esfrey's court, Onfroy wields substantial influence. Esfrey delegates much of the day-to-day running of the kingdom to her brother, and he takes it quietly in his stride. More recently he developed a relationship with Alhambra, a survivor of No-Climb Cliffs he duelled during the Uzii's contest of might. While the pair rarely found the time to spend together, they always came back to the temple beneath Caretaker's Hall in the end. Onfroy is a fearsome figure within the court in no small part due to Alhambra, as after her transformation into a Thorn of the Red Rose her martial murderous might rivals Onfroy's own. Together they quietly and in some cases very publicly eliminate dissent. They have had 2 children together - the first, an unnamed daughter, disappeared three days after her birth, missing from her cot of flowers. The second, a son called Arnfroy, was born with skin mottled and patterned, split by imprints of 5-petalled red roses.

Jofry Brythion [79] (Deceased)- Youngest son of Leafhair & Elora. He was an inquisitive child, but lacked the dexterous coordination of his siblings. Elora worried, but Leafhair was confident he'd find his way through the trials somehow. While he struggled, the youngster showed a remarkable determination and managed to cling on to life during the arduous tests. Elora grew increasingly attached to him, while Leafhair neglected his youngest to focus on Esfrey's education. Jofry had few friends amongst his peers, and spent most of his time outside of the trials in the company of young Deru, preferring their down-to-earth, measured approach to life. Few of his peers were willing to combat the might of even a sapling Deru, so he escaped physical bullying for the most part. He had not been seen since his mother's death, despite extensive searching. His closest friends, 2 sapling Deru and a young dog-boy were also missing. He resurfaced during the Dawn Council, stumbling upon visiting dignitaries from the Scrim. Apprehended during his attempted flight by Onfroy the boy disappeared once more for nearly a year before re-emerging as an emissary for his older twin siblings, loyal to all outward appearances. Marked out by two birds, a hawk and a falcon, perpetually adorning his shoulders, the boy-turned unusually hard man was struck by a chance encounter at the Festival of New Horizons, and a new feeling long left undrawn upon begins to return - love. He and Olea stole what time they could while his twins were away on campaign and he left the regent of the Deru. Attending the Union of the Crimson Sun together the pair seemed insatiably inseparable. Their bond has remained true, the two taking the responsibility of regency frequently while Esfrey wars and Onfroy prowls the lands for 'converts'. Now, with Esfrey incapacitated, Jofry and Olea serve as regents once more, for her young son Karakhita.

Lilium 'Lily' Interspinus Brythion [52] (Deceased)- Eldest daughter of Jofry & Olea. Lily's goliath blood flows strong, and at 7 she was already the size of an Illian 12 year old. While Esfrey bordered on commanding the girl commence the trials, both Jofry and Olea did all they quietly could to keep Lily under Esfrey's gaze. The trials death rate has risen to almost one in two under the Listener's supernatural gaze, as penalties for even slight failure are harsher than ever before.

'Arnfroy' Arnoldii Brythion [53] - Eldest son of Onfroy & Alhambra. Arnfroy's abominable heritage is immediately evident in his mottled & split skin, crossed by imprints of five-petalled red roses. He is an exceptionally quiet man.

Karakhita Brythion [52] - Eldest son of Esfrey & Rakatak, born on the eve of the first skirmish of the third war against the folk of the flames. Orc blood runs strong through his veins. In stark contrast to his elder cousin he is an exceptionally rowdy fellow, brave to the point of idiocy.

Other Notables
Norren the Mortal [159] (Deceased)- This cunning old dog-man leads the pack that serves Elora as her vassal. While in his youth the wily soldier fought long and hard against the Illians of the rock, when the war became so entrenched as to approach a war of extinction he betrayed the elders of his pack and led his fellow disaffected's over to Elora's side. Faced now with overwhelming odds the remaining packs retreated to their hill-forts to lick their wounds. Norren was charged with protecting the foothills, and with his pack now granted respite from the century of war and fed by the Illians is exceptionally effective. His pack has grown strong, and he now serves Leafhair & Elora as equal masters. His moniker was given by a soothsayer many moons ago who predicted his death in battle. Norren replied that while he is no more than mortal, his death will happen only when he so chooses. He has been tested and tested, and remains a capable warrior even has his age begins to catch up with him. Having crushed the remaining Dog-men of the highlands, Norren split his pack amongst his pups and theirs, preparing for a great trek westwards. In the aftermath of the failed expedition west, Norren has struggled to bring his pups back to heel, and their packs begin to vie with his for control of the dog-men. Tensions and tempers run high. The death of Norren by choice in battle, defending his sworn liege Esfrey, accelerated the collapse of semi-independent dog-men packs. The infighting his death triggered threatened to tear the packs apart and endanger wider Illia. In the struggle, a trying time for all involved, 6 packs emerged as strong contenders to reunite the dog-men. All fought, each wary of the other, until through subterfuge and intrigue one gained ascendance, subjugating the others. For a year and a day the order stood. Until the Listener came. At his command the 5 packs were freed, empowered, and set upon the last, the ascendant pack. When the blood-frenzy abated the Listener was pleased, and promised that in time there would be game aplenty to feed all the packs, for their sacrifice had been accepted.

Asha-Shuran [82] (Taken Root) - this Wattlea was the Deru's finest tactician, outfighting all comers in a series of exhibition matches between the Grey Grove & Widhu's Wrath. A rarity among the Deru, she was renowned for her quick temper and agile mind, and was usually raring for a fight. She found a kindred spirit in old Norren, and spent long hours discussing theories while the two hunt. Concerned at the growing pugnacious spirit of the Uzii, and trusting the Crimson Kingdom to stay in their mountains high Asha spent most of her days teaching Esfrey to lead warriors in battle, although she despaired of ever teaching the Illian to refrain from a charge. Asha then retreated a little from the capital, spending more and more time with Norren in the foothills. Esfrey made no attempt to force her to remain. Finding her favour at court again restored as Onfroy sought allies Asha-Shuran led a force against the blightwhales, conducting herself admirably. Devastated by the death of Norren she resolved to do right by Esfrey in her remaining years of service and while she again fell out of favour as Esfrey was enraged that she was removed from the field Asha remained a powerful commander with the loyalty of the Ashan Grove until finally taking root peacefully after 82 summers.

The Listener ?? (Shattered) - this former sightless one is a mysterious figure, a red rose & crimson poppy sprouting from where his eyes once were. Claiming to speak for the ancestor spirits, to hear the voices of the rotted, the sacrificed, the deplored derided and defamed. He delivers their counsel, for in death they have nothing left to lose. The sightless ones, once an order of mute & blind stonemasons, has grown massively in size since the Listener's rise, now ranging far and wide to preach and proselytise, giving seeds and stirring the fertility of barren land in exchange for sacrifices and the bodies of the dead. The Listener himself has a near-iron grip on the Rock and its surrounds, facilitated by Esfrey's growing insanity. For years he has waited, prepared, sent feelers out to all who would listen, but now he preaches more. That the time of trials and terror is at hand in earnest. Now he marches on Bhaile-Koma to proclaim his visions and revelations to the court, backed by an army. He will make them listen.

Gormeric Runarn [67] - the Lord of Banners, Gormeric leads the Enkel of Luaithraeak-Molok. He executed a coup that ousted Karakhita, former lord of the Deru, and took over rule.

Rolls.
Actions:
Unit count: Nine land, two naval, three shades
1: [Military] Raise one land unit.

2: [Military] Send Takran to aid Akoda in Burying the Past. Success.
When the call goes out from Danneta-Yvaon, the Moot dispatches their Champion, Takran Nazarun to join with Akoda and Nila-Sen with their expedition, along with all the others who show up. Like most Viskari, Takran has limited experience with ocean travel, but he's confident in his waterbending abilities and even more confident in the sailing expertise of others.
Upon arriving in the Jewel of Tarandi, Takran makes himself busy helping with the preparations and sinks into the background among the more famous heroes and champions who have assembled at the behest of the Nocter and Noctrix.

3: [Intrigue] Investigate the mysterious happenings within Iskaran Venat and find why the dead speak so freely in strange tongues.
When news reaches the Viskari Saraks that the Dead are speaking without prompting and in an unknown tongue they, as a group, freak out slightly. This is unprecedented as never before have the Dead spoken without the proper rituals and they have always spoken in the Viskari tongue, even if the form is archaic.
They break with the Moot of Elders to focus completely on this new occurrence and seize control of the situation. Vanaruk and the Host of the Damned are dispatched to secure the ancient Forest, send the foolhardy young warriors home and turn aside all non-Saraks who would enter. The aged Aranin Sarak of Iskandrazac, Koran Kalsharaz leads a procession into Iskaran Venat to try and get an answer from the voices of the dead, even if the strain kills him.
Meanwhile, a delegation is sent by the Moot of Elders to the Tower in Zarakor to see if any of their ancient knowledge of the Truthseers is relevant. There is some question over the size of the delegation of Saraks sent, some say eight and others nine.

4: [Opulence] Attempt to buyout Horses from Falo, Region 130, TP1. Failure.
Viskari merchants and horsebreeders make the trip to Falo in an effort to find new blood to improve their own herds. Though impressed with the quality available, they find the merchants of Danneta-Yvaon far more skilled in negotiations and they are forced to depart empty handed.

5: [Faith] Forge Lesser Artifact using The Altar of Azanathazan. [1/3]


Nonactions:
Resist all unauthorised buyouts and quests and all conversions save those to the Way of Eauden.

When the Sentinels request that the Viskari provide them with ships they are met with a no. Not only are there not enough ships to spare, the Moot of Elders inform them in no uncertain terms that will not aid those who choose to exalt one who has made themselves an enemy of all who live and until such time as they denounce Merlyn the Moot can only assume that the Sentinels condone mass murder and devastation.

The Moot votes to remain neutral in the Truthseers' internal conflict. It is no secret that they hold little love for the organisation which has demanded so much sacrifice and yet given little. Indeed it is all they can do to not simply evict them from the Tower of Zarakor, instead a lead tablet is nailed to the door, informing them that the Laws of the Viskari will be applied fully to all Truthseers within their lands as they have always been and that further attempts to defy them will not be looked upon kindly.

The Lim Dynasty

Stories and Rumors

• Queen Xiuling declares the Sunken Lands (270) to be Under the Protection of the Lim Dynasty. The Lim thereby guarantee the independence of the Sunken Lands and will march to the kingdom's aid against any invader who may threaten their independence.
• Queen Xiuling hints at her future retirement. She has appointed as her heir her 3rd daughter, Lim Chiang. To help smooth the future transition of power, Chiang is appointed governor of Zhao Dang and brought into Xiuling's council.

The End of the Ko

The whispers in the Towerhome bring nothing but panic. The mere rumor that the Wizard, the oldest enemy of the Ko, might be returning is enough to send them scattering. None want to be there when he returns. Zinnia tries to instill order, tries to investigate and find some way to prevent them from leaving, but not even increasingly draconian measures can slow the mass-exodus. Within a few years, the Towerhome lies empty and the Drakko rule over an empty ruin.

Then, they too leave. Quietly. As Zinnia looks one last time upon her relatively small domain, she lets out a heavy sigh. At the very least, her life's work remains. The Ko have been successfully scattered and integrated into so many different kingdoms in so many different places. Now, unless the whole world ends, they will survive.

She spreads her wings and flies until she finds a cave, deep inside the mountains. There, she sits and puts down her head. Rest. Yes, here she can rest. Maybe one day she will stir again and the world will hear her roar. But for now...

...For now, it is finished.
