The gathering and discussion of Local Improvements

[Icemule Trace, Town Center - 2300] (u4042150)

A tranquil square dusted with snow sprawls beneath a sturdy mule statue standing placidly atop a tall plinth of silver-veined black stone. The brilliance of the stars refracts through the statue, casting prismatic glints over the townsfolk nearby. Some denizens, mostly halflings but with a scattering of other folk mixed in, chatter by a roaring bonfire, lazing on a smooth dark stone bench or stargazing on colorful cloaks spread out on the ground. Others mill around a burled pine message board standing close to a colorful silver-bound barrel. You also see the Svardin disk, the fiery red Willm disk, the glaesine Yardie disk streaked with cobalt veins, the Wolfloner disk, the Xanlin disk, a massive snowy white tiger, the Balzi disk, the clam-shaped Lithyia disk, the Aliashyrah disk, the glossy pink Lilanna disk shaped like a jellyfish, an animated falchion hovering in mid-air, a yellow-eyed silvery lor mandrake sprouting darkly nacreous catkins, the web-draped Missoni disk, a lazy wild midnight black dog, the repousse copper Perigourd disk raised in leafy designs, a lamenting mountain spirit that is flying around, the Barjnibus disk, the discordant Yairra disk, a one-eared timber hyena, a vine-carved cherrywood cart with some stuff on it and a woven bark wastebin.

Obvious paths: north, northeast, east, south, west

Sammoon just arrived.

Gazaroth slides an ornate gold ring off his finger.

A muddy brown finch hops on Gazaroth's shoulder, ruffling its feathers quickly before settling down.

Gazaroth slides a gold and brass ring on his finger.

Suddenly Gazaroth vanishes!

Roelon's eyes suddenly flash with a deep sanguine glow.

Roelon turns to face Jastalyn.

Roelon playfully flips the folds of his black woolen kilt.

Lithyia glances at Sorlu.

Svardin glances up.

A one-eared timber hyena suddenly cocks her head, with ears perked. She then trots off with a determined look in her eyes.

Sammoon sits down.

Roelon nods once.

Jastalyn hugs Roelon, who wraps her in a warm embrace.

Sammoon turns around.

Roelon nods to Sorlu in greeting.

Jastalyn gives Randsford a friendly hug.

Aliashyrah whispers something to Sorlu.

Olgretien glances nervously around the area.

A sudden gust makes the snow dance and swirl around you.

The dog cocks its head to one side and raises its muzzle up into the air, sniffing anxiously. After a moment, the fur of its ruff bristles, and it begins to growl at the shadows.

Lithyia shivers.

You dance around the area to music only you can hear.

Roelon closes his eyes for a moment.

(Lithyia pulls on her knit wrap.)

Randsford just left.

Svardin points northeast.

Randsford just arrived.

High Lord Svardin just went northeast.

The dog suddenly turns and focuses its eyes upon Falvicar.

A yellow-eyed silvery lor mandrake sprouting darkly nacreous catkins toddles over to a massive snowy white tiger, tilting her bulbous head to the side as she observes the tiger's mannerisms. She attempts to mimic the tiger, causing her to cant her head to the side.

Licks of flame rise up from Roelon's leather hiking boots.

Jastalyn gently takes hold of Randsford's hand.

Lilanna nods to Randsford in greeting.

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

Snowflakes gently drift to the ground, melting closest to a roaring bonfire and accumulating further away.

Olgretien just went northeast.

Jastalyn nods.

Randsford gazes up into the heavens.

Vendayan loses some awareness.

Jehance says, "Could I trouble evveryone for some spells please? I missed invoker."

Xanlin grins at Jastalyn and tosses a fluffy marshmallow at her! With just a small shift to one side, Jastalyn manages to catch the marshmallow in her mouth!

You say, speaking quietly to Randsford, "Good evening again."

Missoni turns to face Jehance.

Salarus just arrived.

Your pearl white lizard scampers down your arm, getting to the elbow before you manage to head it off with your other hand. You gently herd it back up to your shoulder, and as you do, the little scamp nuzzles your finger and hums with pleasure.

Perigourd removes a green yo-yo from in his suede cloak.

Lithyia whispers something to Jastalyn.

Lilanna changes her tune, adding a new element to her song...

Lilanna skillfully begins to weave another verse into her harmony.

Lilanna begins to sing of valiant legends and appears to be more protected.

With straightened posture and a firm chin, Sorlu presents himself to Roelon with a short, courteous bow.

Lithyia glances at Jastalyn.

Perigourd drops his green yo-yo, and then just as it seems as if it's going to smash into bits, his wrist flicks quickly causing the disk to hover just inches from the ground. The green yo-yo spins rapidly, until Perigourd tugs on the string to bring the disk back to his waiting hand.

Wolfloner adjusts Jehance's vultite full plate, improving its comfort and maneuverability.

Mayor Talliver just arrived.

The emerald sprite flying above Dendum's shoulder raises its arms in the air and pirouettes.

Sorlu greets, speaking to Roelon, "Good evening, Councillor...it has been some time."

Wolfloner nods at Jehance.

Lilanna bows to Talliver.

High Lord Svardin just arrived.

Jastalyn whispers something to Lithyia.

Yairra turns to face Talliver.

Missoni smiles.

The dog wanders over to Lithyia and sniffs at her suspiciously for a moment.

With straightened posture and a firm chin, Sorlu presents himself to Talliver with a short, courteous bow.

Talliver says, "Good evening, everyone."

Missoni performs a bow characteristic of those from Solhaven before Talliver.

Perigourd says, "Fair eve."

Jastalyn smiles.

Lilanna exclaims, "Evnin!"

Yairra says, speaking to Talliver, "Greetings, Mayor."

Svardin barks loudly!

You quietly say, "Good evening Mayor Talliver."

Svardin says, "Fair sails and full winds ta ya."

Roelon says, speaking deeply to Sorlu, "It is ah habit of mah clan. Sometimes solitude is needed."

Wolfloner nods at Talliver.

Talliver wipes a spot of paint away from his nose.

Roelon nods slowly.

You chuckle at Svardin.

Sammoon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Roelon deeply says, "To gather mah thoughts."

Jastalyn grins.

Roelon nods to Talliver in greeting.

Salarus just went west.

Roelon says, speaking deeply to Talliver, "Mayor, good to see ye."

Sammoon asks, speaking to Svardin, "Was dat backwards?"

Sidling up to Missoni, a yellow-eyed silvery lor mandrake sprouting darkly nacreous catkins tilts her wrinkled face to gaze into her eyes. In an awkward display of empathy, the mandrake pats her knee.

Lithyia just opened a soft knitted orchid-motif shadowy ebon pashmina wrap.

Yairra asks, speaking to Talliver, "You didn't hire the painting out?"

Lithyia taps something in a soft knitted orchid-motif shadowy ebon pashmina wrap.

Lithyia just closed a soft knitted orchid-motif shadowy ebon pashmina wrap.

Sir Cryheart just arrived.

Sir Cryheart just went south.

The sky is full of billowing snowflakes.

Svardin turns around.

Lithyia shivers.

Hasford just arrived.

Barjnibus just left.

The Barjnibus disk goes off in search of its master.

Talliver nods to Roelon in greeting.

Svardin says, "I can do it backwards."

Svardin giggles.

Sammoon grins.

Aliashyrah compliments, speaking to Talliver, "The improvements around town are lovely."

Perigourd spins his green yo-yo, and the small disk makes several wide loops. Then, with unerring accuracy, the green yo-yo returns right back to his hand.

Lithyia agrees with Aliashyrah.

Talliver says, speaking to Yairra, "Most of the work around town was done by city workers and volunteers."

Yardie asks, "What improvements?"

The spirit of Hasford emits a ghostly wheezing sound.

Yardie says, "I've yet to tour."

Olgretien just arrived.

Yairra grins at Talliver.

Vendayan points at a burled pine message board.

Aliashyrah says, "And it is nice to hear that Ellerel has found another meaningful way to give back to the town."

Several tentacles crawl up Aliashyrah's arm from her serpentine armbands, nuzzling into her flesh.

Draelor nods.

Svardin says, "An da deadfall at each gate."

Salarus just arrived.

Svardin giggles.

Loralaii asks, speaking darkly to Talliver, "I assume you saw the.....spectral ladies come to visit last night?"

The spirit of Hasford begins to wail eerily.

Olgretien faces Talliver and smartly brings his right fist up to his chest. Holding it there, he bows deeply.

Lithyia says, "Loralaii means her mom."

Lithyia glances at Loralaii.

Lithyia giggles.

The sky all around is white with falling snow.

Olgretien takes a drink from his Elanthian coffee.

Jastalyn gawks at Lithyia.

Yairra glances at Loralaii.

Colored light gathers in the runic lettering scrawled over Sorlu's seed charm as he turns it. You can see winged figures faintly illuminated beneath the stone.

Yardie reads, "Cit...sins and Fiends....of Ice.....moo.....Trace."

Lithyia exclaims, "She said so!"

Perigourd throws his yo-yo out to the side, letting it spin horizontally. He pulls the string up and over with one hand, and the yo-yo hovers like a tiny airship! As it slows, Perigourd gives the string a quick tug, and the yo-yo returns to his hand.

Tiny, softly glowing colorful feathers pour out of Dendum's jade panel bracelet, mimicking the ebb and flow of a flock of birds in flight. All at once, the feathers condense tightly into a ball of light, reforming to reveal a radiant white winged disir illusion.

Jehance reaches down and tenderly cradles Hasford's lifeless hand in his.

The powerful look leaves Sammoon.

Yairra looks thoughtfully at Yardie.

Jehance traces a simple symbol as he reverently calls upon the power of his patron...

Jehance gestures at Hasford.

Jehance suddenly looks very drained.

A bolt of soft white light streaks down from the sky bathing Hasford in it.

A brilliant glow forms around Hasford, lingers for a moment, and finally fades. Hasford awakens looking somewhat confused and seriously drained.

Hasford seems slightly different.

Hasford stands taller, as if bolstered with a sense of confidence.

His body is surrounded by a dim dancing aura.

Hasford is surrounded by a shimmering field of energy.

Hasford appears somehow changed.

Hasford vanishes.

--Never mind, there he is again. Perhaps it was a trick of the light.

Wolfloner gestures while calling upon the lesser spirits for aid...

Wolfloner gestures at Hasford.

The glazed look leaves Hasford.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Seven phantom tentacles sprout from the base of Aliashyrah's spine, wrapping her in a binding embrace.

The glazed look leaves Jehance.

Loralaii begins chortling at Lithyia.

Sammoon says, speaking to Talliver, "Does that count the seas, Krolvin still attack me."

Puffycloud just arrived.

Lithyia grins at Loralaii.

Puffycloud just went east.

Sammoon says, "Frequently."

Hasford exclaims, "Thanks!"

Hasford smiles.

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

You exclaim, speaking quietly to Yardie, "Your getting better!"

Lithyia agrees with you.

Brute looks less calm and refreshed than a moment ago.

Sammoon glances at an oversized icy blue proclamation on a burled pine message board.

Olgretien takes a drink from his Elanthian coffee.

Hissing slightly, the bonfire flutters and cavorts in a sudden uptick of wind that is riddled with snowflakes.

Roelon says, speaking deeply to Sammoon, "Those pirates work fir themselves ah assume."

Jehance suddenly appears drained as an ephemeral shroud departs from his form.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Yardie beams happily at you!

Hasford turns toward Jehance and renders a sharp hand salute.

The dog wanders over to Jastalyn and sniffs at her suspiciously for a moment.

Sammoon says, "Ah."

Sammoon nods at Roelon.

Draelor says, speaking to Yardie, "Mule though instead of moo, different creatures and all."

Roelon deeply says, "As do the bandits that plague our roads."

Roelon sighs.

Hasford suddenly appears weakened as an ephemeral shroud departs from his form.

Yardie says, speaking to Draelor, "Ahhh."

Svardin says, "Da krolvin hasn't gotten any smarter. Tell dem der leader is cheatin dem outta rations and see what happens."

Puffycloud just arrived.

Puffycloud just went west.

Svardin giggles.

Hasford removes an iceberry tart from in his spidersilk backpack.

Roelon slings his orase knight's shield over his shoulder and onto a tangled mass of oily fishing nets on the back of his alloy weapons bandolier.

Hasford takes a bite of his iceberry tart.

Hasford makes a horrible face!

Hasford looks a little better.

Roelon hangs an opal-hilted black razern longsword from one of the repurposed leather garter straps on his alloy weapons bandolier.

The powerful look leaves Vendayan.

The dim aura fades from around Vendayan.

Vendayan begins to breathe less deeply.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Vendayan begins to falter, then completely fades away.

An ebon shadow swirls through a rose-intaglio ethereal pink diamond on Jastalyn's forehead, momentarily casting her countenance in darkness.

Hasford takes a bite of his iceberry tart.

Hasford looks a little better.

The Barjnibus disk arrives in the room, shivering violently. It then disintegrates.

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

The dog suddenly turns and focuses its eyes upon Dinaden.

Lilanna asks, "Is the Mill finished?"

Hasford takes a bite of his iceberry tart.

Hasford looks a little better.

Sammoon exclaims, "More hardtack!"

Hasford takes a bite of his iceberry tart.

Hasford looks a little better.

Hasford makes a horrible face!

Hasford looks a little better.

Yairra nods at Lilanna.

Sammoon asks, "Da mill?"

You quietly say, "It looks pretty on the outside."

Yairra exclaims, speaking to Lilanna, "I think so!"

Sammoon gazes in wonder at his surroundings.

Roelon nods at Sammoon.

Hasford takes a bite of his iceberry tart.

Hasford looks a little better.

Talliver says, speaking to Lilanna, "The mill is mostly repaired."

Azerik just arrived.

With a series of tiny grunts, a frost-covered yellow-eyed silvery lor mandrake attempts to gather a sheet of snow beneath her gangly arms, and the childlike plant creates a lopsided ball. She glances up with a proud grin before slipping on a patch of ice.

Azerik just went west.

Lilanna says, "Door still licked."

Lilanna says, "Ahh."

Lilanna says, "Locked."

Lilanna nods.

A shudder ripples over a radiant white winged disir illusion before it breaks into tiny, softly glowing colorful feathers that drift apart and fade away.

Sammoon grins.

A frost-covered yellow-eyed silvery lor mandrake stands up on wobbly legs.

The brilliant, rapidly shifting aura around Missoni shimmers and flickers briefly before fading.

Lilanna exclaims, "Is great news!"

Fiery hues dance over the surface of Roelon's leather hiking boots.

Sammoon reaches out and touches a frost-covered yellow-eyed silvery lor mandrake.

Talliver says, "Given that its absence contributed to our food problems this year, it's off-limits to casual traffic for now."

Loralaii's sentient potato whistles a jaunty little ditty!

A long-legged black rat clambers out from Lilanna's leather sword bandolier and climbs its way back up to her shoulder, looking quite pleased with itself.

Lilanna nods at Talliver.

Sammoon nods.

Roelon nods understandingly at Talliver.

Talliver says, speaking to Sammoon, "The krolvin are a splintered people, I fear."

Sammoon says, "Good thinkin."

Lilanna's sentient potato whistles a jaunty little ditty!

Svardin says, "Da miller gets lonely though."

The chestnut amulet hanging from Jastalyn's neck suddenly flares a bright shade of blue.

You nod understandingly.

A sudden gust makes the snow dance and swirl around you.

Svardin grins.

The purple corona surrounding Loralaii's black acorn amulet rotates around in a circle.

Lithyia loops several stitches of her pashmina yarn onto one of her needles as she begins to knit.

Throwing his yo-yo quickly downward, Perigourd grabs the string with his free hand and moves it away from his body. With a grin, he begins to whirl the yo-yo around like a pinwheel! At the final turn, Perigourd throws it forward and up, releasing the string and catching the yo-yo palm up in his hand.

Oddly, you see Loralaii attempting to lick herself.

Azerik just arrived.

Your breathing becomes more shallow.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting you begins to falter, then completely fades away.

The dim aura fades from around you.

Puffycloud just arrived.

Sammoon nods.

Lithyia glances at Loralaii.

Lithyia giggles to herself.

Loralaii shrugs at Lithyia.

Lithyia leans softly against Wolfloner.

Sammoon says, speaking to Talliver, "That splinterin made em a bit grumpy."

Aliashyrah studies Talliver, giving him an intense consideration.

A pale white aura dances across Falvicar's night black platemail.

Jehance says, "I know I do when I get a splinter."

Scintillating gold-veined crimson motes of light briefly pulse around Balzi as he reaches toward his thigh sheath! Balzi removes a scintillating twisted drakar hasta with pyrographed saramar runes banding the shaft from in his thigh sheath.

Balzi removes an etched spiked mithglin greatshield from in his mithglin-framed eisenruck.

Balzi just went north.

Talliver says, "As for the paint..."

Svardin says, "Tasty."

Yairra leans away from the bonfire, a fine tracery of sweat dampening her soft, creamy white skin.

Svardin nods at Talliver.

Lithyia turns an inquisitive ear toward Talliver.

An icy gust of air blows in from Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

Missoni gazes with interest at Talliver.

A heavy snow falls, sculpting everything into round white curves.

With a flick of his wrist, Perigourd drops the yo-yo, then quickly swings it around over his upper arm. Reaching back to grab the string, he gives another tug and the yo-yo leaps over his arm, then spins to the ground before Perigourd tugs the string and calls the yo-yo home.

Please rephrase that command.

You peer quizzically at Talliver.

The air stirs around you for a moment.

Sorlu gazes in amusement at Perigourd.

The dog wanders over to Jastalyn and sniffs at her suspiciously for a moment.

Wolfloner turns an inquisitive ear toward Talliver.

Perigourd hums a seemingly random tune.

Lilanna raises an eyebrow.

Talliver says, "We've been doing a bit of painting in Dabbings Manor. The family feels comfortable hosting dinners and the like nowadays."

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

A blood red ruby, which is set against Azerik's forehead, glitters brightly for a few moments.

Sorlu asks, speaking to Perigourd, "It's the simple things in life, hmm?"

Sorlu grins slowly at Perigourd.

Lithyia beams happily at Talliver!

Roelon raises an eyebrow.

Lilanna says, "Ooo."

Yairra grins.

Missoni smiles.

Talliver says, "But it's an old house, so we've needed to remodel a bit."

Aliashyrah gazes with interest at Talliver.

Perigourd says, speaking to Sorlu, "One must enjoy the peaceful times."

Wolfloner smiles at Talliver.

You cock your head.

Sorlu nods in agreement.

Lithyia busily knits away at something with her silver knitting needles, the task taking up her complete attention.

Jehance nods firmly.

Sorlu cocks his head at Talliver.

The bonfire suddenly pops, sending glowing embers to dance in the falling snow above it.

A sudden gust makes the snow dance and swirl around you.

Lithyia shivers.

Jastalyn grimaces as her frost white ermine suddenly cranes around her face to see something, its paw anchored onto her nose. A sudden slip sends the rodent flailing and clinging wildly to Jastalyn's front before scrambling back up to her shoulder with an embarrassed and sulky squeak.

Picking up a nearby stick, Roelon idly prods the wood in the roaring bonfire, sending tiny motes of glowing ember into the air above.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Lithyia busily knits away at something with her silver knitting needles, the task taking up her complete attention.

Svardin glances up.

Svardin turns an ear toward a sturdy mule statue carved from glacial ice.

The dog opens its mouth wide in an extended yawn.

Svardin says, speaking to a sturdy mule statue carved from glacial ice, "Hush."

Svardin suddenly stumbles for no apparent reason.

Your pearl white lizard makes a little clicking sound as it smacks its jaws open and closed. You then notice it is watching a fly buzzing around a few feet away. Observant little critter!

Lithyia begins chuckling at Svardin!

Azerik just went north.

The sky is full of billowing snowflakes.

Svardin sticks his tongue out and manages to catch a snowflake on its tip!

You gaze up into the heavens.

Missoni asks, speaking curiously to Talliver, "Are you planning on hosting an engagement?"

Talliver says, "I'd written a list, but in my haste..."

Lithyia says, "I sure hope so."

Lithyia grins at Missoni.

Talliver dismisses the thought with a wave of his hand.

Missoni agrees with Lithyia.

Perigourd throws his yo-yo out to the side, letting it spin horizontally. He pulls the string up and over with one hand, and the yo-yo hovers like a tiny airship! As it slows, Perigourd gives the string a quick tug, and the yo-yo returns to his hand.

Roelon grins.

Lithyia says, "I love a good party."

Lithyia smirks.

Sorlu grins at Lithyia.

Missoni says, speaking quickly to Lithyia, "Not that I am inviting us all..."

Talliver says, speaking to Missoni, "I believe we have a lot to celebrate, yes."

Dendum inquires, speaking to Talliver, ""Any word from the giants?"

Sammoon nods at Lithyia.

Lithyia begins chuckling at Missoni!

Willm removes a rough orase runestaff from in his leather knapsack.

Lithyia says, "I am."

Willm just went east.

Missoni nods approvingly at Talliver.

Lithyia grins stupidly.

Sorlu agrees with Talliver.

The emerald sprite flying above Dendum's shoulder quickly launches into the air, a trail of magical energy following it.

Aliashyrah teases, speaking to Lithyia, "He had you at hosting dinners, didn't he?"

Randsford nods slowly at Dendum.

Missoni says, speaking happily to Lithyia, "I knew I could count on you."

Lithyia nods at Aliashyrah.

Aliashyrah nods.

Lithyia says, "He sure did."

Lithyia beams!

Yairra gazes in amusement at Lithyia.

Roelon nods to Dendum in greeting.

Sorlu chuckles to himself.

Lithyia giggles.

Sammoon says, "Food."

Lithyia busily knits away at something with her silver knitting needles, the task taking up her complete attention.

Sammoon says, "Aye."

Sammoon says, "And drink."

Sammoon grabs a caviar-topped sesame wafer from inside his thick leather knapsack.

The air around Roelon becomes hot, as waves of heat rise from his leather hiking boots.

Sammoon raises his caviar-topped wafer skyward!

Svardin says, "An drunken kobolds."

Lithyia asks, "Can i bring the keg, Talliver?"

A heavy snow falls, sculpting everything into round white curves.

Talliver nods at Lithyia.

Lithyia beams!

Sammoon takes a bite of his caviar-topped wafer.

Lithyia exclaims, "Wonderful!"

Missoni claps her hands.

Sammoon absent-mindedly drops a caviar-topped sesame wafer into his thick leather knapsack.

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

Svardin says, "Oh, mebbe its not dat kinda party."

Svardin giggles.

Talliver says, "Of course. I may look into purchasing some of your creations for the manor."

Roelon says, speaking deeply to Talliver, "And ah hope we add more to that celebration list."

Lithyia's jaw drops.

Lithyia asks, "Really?"

Lithyia blinks.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Talliver, "Let us hope the rennovations to Dabbings Manor do not include too many breakable things."

Aliashyrah laughs softly, trying to hide her amusement.

Randsford just left.

Sorlu smiles at Lithyia.

Randsford just arrived.

Talliver nods at Aliashyrah.

Roelon removes a crisply pleated kilt of cream-on-cocoa tartan from in his tartan hip-satchel.

A low thrum and grind of gears emanates from Yardie's leather herb kit.

Lithyia beams!

Lithyia whispers something to Wolfloner.

Lithyia whispers something to Wolfloner.

Svardin turns around.

Lithyia grins at Wolfloner.

Perigourd releases his green yo-yo and it spirals downward only to stop inches from the ground. With a quick flick of his wrist, the green yo-yo jumps right back into his hand.

The dog gazes ahead blankly, seemingly oblivious to its surroundings.

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

Roelon deeply says, "Perhaps ah nicely framed kilt. Or rather, perhas ah blade or two from the forge."

Roelon put a crisply pleated kilt of cream-on-cocoa tartan in his tartan hip-satchel.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Lithyia begins chuckling at Roelon!

You smile at Lithyia.

Svardin says, speaking to a sturdy mule statue carved from glacial ice, "I can see you, ya know."

Sorlu begins chuckling at Roelon!

A faint white aura flickers around Falvicar.

Hewn from glacial ice, the towering statue of a stubborn mule stares down upon the town center with obstinate eyes. Ambient light suffuses the statue with a cold glow and collects in blue and green ribbons within its crystalline form. The mule's hooves are splayed and firmly planted as it resists being led. Safe in the statue's shadow is a town carved from ice and imbued with hints of living color, the streets of which proceed toward burrows carved into the sprawling glacier to the north.

A delicate silver filigree pattern swirls briefly within a faceted sliver of grey shadowglass set against Roelon's forehead.

Aliashyrah comments, speaking playfully to Sorlu, "It would seem no permission is needed to erect a statue in town. You just need to find a worker worthy and skilled enough to capture your likeness."

Vendayan says, "That's excellent news."

Yairra asks, "When will we be able to tour?"

Sorlu says, speaking to Talliver, "Perhaps it is time we schedule another talk to Melian at the Abbey. She was on the fence before...but now, surely, she must see what we spoke of is coming to pass."

Talliver says, speaking to Yairra, "We've had an invitation from Vrigge to visit the hall this evening."

The black rat on Lilanna's shoulder makes a sudden flying leap, apparently trying to gain access to the top of her head. Muttering under her breath, she manages to herd the recalcitrant rodent back to her shoulder.

Talliver says, "You both have good points."

Lithyia begins chuckling at Yairra!

Randsford says, speaking to Yairra, "If only was that simple."

Roelon grins at Yairra.

Willm just arrived.

Willm put a rough orase runestaff in his leather knapsack.

The sliver of grey shadowglass on Roelon's forehead dims drastically as a cloud of darkness roils deep within the gem. After a moment, it fades, returning to its normal state.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Willm just went east.

Prize just arrived.

Talliver says, "I haven't been to the hall since the repairs began."

Yairra says, speaking solemnly to Randsford, "I believe in you."

Randsford raises an eyebrow in Aliashyrah's direction.

Willm just arrived.

The air around Roelon becomes hot, as waves of heat rise from his leather hiking boots.

You quietly say, "It's been pretty well sealed up."

You simper.

Aliashyrah asks, speaking to Talliver, "But there has been no sign amoung the workers of any taint?"

Roelon nods to you.

A sudden gust makes the snow dance and swirl around you.

Yairra appears to be trying hard not to grin.

Opalina loves the snow

Yairra turns around.

Vendayan just nudged Yairra.

Perigourd leans softly against Missoni.

Talliver says, speaking to Aliashyrah, "Nothing at all."

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Yairra begins to falter, then completely fades away.

Yairra begins to breathe less deeply.

Missoni rests a gentle hand on Perigourd's arm.

The dim aura fades from around Svardin.

Svardin begins to breathe less deeply.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Svardin begins to falter, then completely fades away.

Shrouded in a haze of melted snowflakes, the bonfire ignores the chilly weather and radiates a comfortable heat.

High Lord Svardin just went south.

At the edge of your hearing, you hear a surly voice whisper from nearby, "You can never have too many knives."

A resplendent obsidian black raven soars high overhead.

Suddenly, Gazaroth appears in the area holding onto a ring he has just placed on his finger.

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

A one-eared timber hyena trots in and looks up at Gazaroth dutifully.

The powerful look leaves Lilanna.

The dim aura fades from around Lilanna.

Lilanna begins to breathe less deeply.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Lilanna begins to falter, then completely fades away.

Sorlu says, "Then I doubt there is anything to truly worry about."

Sorlu shrugs slightly.

Krayton just went north.

Aliashyrah nods in agreement at Sorlu.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

A rosy-nosed frost white ermine on Jastalyn's shoulder suddenly sits up, scanning the area with a mien of feral regality.

Jehance nods at Sorlu.

Aliashyrah says, "That would seem fairly conclusive evidence that it is safe."

You pick idly at some sleek selshis skin gloves with kelyn-reinforced knuckles.

Randsford folds his arms over his chest.

Xanlin's shoulders shake subtly as he struggles to compose his features, revealing a glimmer of mirth before returning to a poker face.

Willm just went south.

Vendayan asks, "Any.. taintless.. workers?"

Lithyia glances at Xanlin.

Vendayan glances at Yairra.

Lieo just arrived.

Lithyia chuckles.

Lieo just left.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Perigourd begins to falter, then completely fades away.

The powerful look leaves Perigourd.

The dim aura fades from around Perigourd.

Perigourd begins to breathe less deeply.

Lithyia glances at Vendayan.

Lithyia snickers.

Lieo just arrived.

A sudden gust makes the snow dance and swirl around you.

Lieo just left.

The powerful look leaves Puffycloud.

Talliver asks, speaking to Roelon, "You've always had a good eye for pathfinding. If we're to make a visit this evening, would you like to lead the way?"

Yairra shifts her weight, restlessly leaning back and forth.

Vendayan pokes Yairra in the ribs.

A faint white aura flickers around Falvicar.

A thin layer of frost forms on the surface of Roelon's ebon leather gloves for a moment, before melting away.

You join Roelon.

Faint green-gold filaments spiral inward from the local surroundings and weave themselves around you.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Sorlu says, "The paranoia of superstition will be handled with time."

Yairra pushes on Vendayan without much success.

Lithyia draws a vultite Niima's-embrace engulfed around the hilt by nacre kraken tentacles from one of the slots on her iron grey bandolier. A ripple of lagoon blue light shimmers over the surface of the Niima's-embrace as a faint gurgle vibrates through it.

Randsford joins Roelon's group.

The warmth works its way toward you, and your shield arm feels much more nimble.

[ Divine Shield: +9:59:00, 9:58:59 remaining. ]

Lithyia slings a battle-scarred blackened rolaren buckler off from over her shoulder.

A massive snowy white tiger's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around her arms.

Lithyia joins Roelon's group.

Jehance joins Roelon's group.

Jastalyn chuckles.

Wolfloner joins Roelon's group.

Falvicar joins Roelon's group.

Sorlu joins Roelon's group.

Jehance draws his golvern lance in the blessed name of the gods! The lance traces an arc of bright light in its wake. A low rumble fills the air for a moment.

Dendum joins Roelon's group.

Aliashyrah joins Roelon's group.

A resplendent obsidian black raven's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around his arms.

Jastalyn joins Roelon's group.

Roelon deeply asks, "To the hall?"

Jehance rummages around in his pockets.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Xanlin joins Roelon's group.

Lilanna grins at Roelon.

Talliver nods at Roelon.

Vendayan joins Roelon's group.

Roelon points south.

Jastalyn softly says, "Yes, roe."

Roelon deeply says, "This way? Oh wait."

Falvicar whispers something to Roelon.

Talliver joins Roelon's group.

Falvicar snickers at Roelon.

Sorlu appears to be trying hard not to grin.

You hear very soft footsteps.

You hear very soft footsteps.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Talliver, "We all still follow him regardless. No need to lie to the man."

Dendum points east.

Lithyia begins to breathe less deeply.

The dim aura fades from around Lithyia.

The powerful look leaves Lithyia.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Lithyia begins to falter, then completely fades away.

Sammoon stands up.

Aliashyrah smirks at Talliver.

Lithyia exclaims, "Let's play follow the kilt!"

Roelon grins at Dendum.

Gazaroth removes a blackened veniom-hilted falchion with a bronze emerald-eyed serpent wrapped around it from in his ursian hide harness.

Yardie asks, "Which way?"

Gazaroth slings a blackened tower shield scarred with the symbol of the Luukosian Order off from over his shoulder.

Perigourd chuckles.

Dendum nods at Roelon.

A one-eared timber hyena suddenly bounds across the area, enjoying her freedom with long lazy lopes.

You hear very soft footsteps.

Sammoon asks, "Who's leadin dis shindig?"

Roelon deeply says, "Ah believe ah recall the way. Though we must prepare to climb ah bit."

Roelon adds Sammoon to his group.

Sorlu nods at Roelon.

High Lord Svardin just arrived.

Olgretien joins Roelon's group.

Yardie joins Roelon's group.

Sammoon nods.

Perigourd joins Roelon's group.

The dog cocks its head to one side and raises its muzzle up into the air, sniffing anxiously. After a moment, the fur of its ruff bristles, and it begins to growl at the shadows.

Sammoon says, "Dandy."

Billowing gusts of heavy snow buffet your face.

Randsford just left.

Randsford just arrived.

The opalescent aura fades from around Brute.

The brilliant aura fades away from Brute.

Brute appears less confident.

The air shivers about Brute, glistening faintly before stilling to normalcy.

Brute begins to breathe less deeply.

The dim aura fades from around Brute.

Lilanna's sentient potato whistles a jaunty little ditty!

Roelon deeply says, "Lets see if the old kilt remembers."

Missoni joins Roelon's group.

Roelon adds Randsford to his group.

You ask, speaking quietly to Talliver, "No new way has been forged up the mountain?"

Missoni draws her surita staff from her widowwood-bound sling, tracing an arc of pulsing black energy in its wake. At her touch, a number of sigils worked into its grain take on a faint luminescence.

Randsford gazes up into the heavens.

You hear very soft footsteps.

A look of concentration briefly passes across Thornaki's face.

The dim aura fades from around Thornaki.

A look of concentration briefly passes across Thornaki's face.

Thornaki begins to breathe less deeply.

Thornaki becomes solid again.

A look of concentration briefly passes across Thornaki's face.

Thornaki takes a deep breath, blinking a couple of times before resuming a calm expression.

A look of concentration briefly passes across Thornaki's face.

A series of stormy grey lines suddenly appears on Thornaki's face, quickly racing towards the center of his forehead before detaching and dissipating in the air.

A look of concentration briefly passes across Thornaki's face.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Thornaki begins to falter, then completely fades away.

Missoni summons a torrent of spiritual and elemental mana and releases upon herself a flurry of abjurations.

You hear very soft footsteps.

Dendum makes a nearly imperceptible motion while whispering a soft phrase...

A chill breeze swirls about Roelon as he gestures and utters a phrase of magic.

Oddly enough, Dendum seems somewhat less buoyant.

Talliver says, speaking to you, "Unfortunately not."

Dendum gestures.

Only faintly visible, frosty white filaments spiral inward from the local surroundings toward Dendum and weave a web of protection about him.

Faint frosty white filaments spiral inward from the local surroundings and weave themselves around you.

Yairra claps her hands.

With his mouth agape, Dendum executes a slow, exaggerated wink and then rolls his eyes dramatically.

Yairra says, "I'm excited to see it."

You nod.

Roelon nods.

Falvicar nods.

Vendayan asks, "Going to the hall, yess?"

You quietly say, "Climbing it is."

Aliashyrah nods at Vendayan.

Sorlu nods.

Roelon deeply says, "Then let is depart if nae one else."

Svardin says, "I's needin ta goes. Rufus is wavin his nightcap at me in a very threatenin manner."

Sammoon asks, "Isn't that up that chute in da mountains?"

Svardin waves.

Yairra says, "I hope the exits are clearly marked. Some of us had a problem with that."

High Lord Svardin begins to walk north but suddenly trips and goes flailing out of sight!

Yairra stares at Vendayan.

A cloud of dense silvery fog suddenly appears. The fog quickly dissipates to reveal Bilz.

A cheerful will-o-wisp spirit floats in, following Bilz.

Jehance whispers to the group, "I navigated the area after I set a gold ring there from our last adventure. The beginning of the path to trek up there is right next to the Arctic Wolverine Cave on the Northwest of Pinefar."

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Yairra, "They were earlier."

The chestnut amulet hanging from Jastalyn's neck suddenly flares a bright shade of blue.

The very powerful look leaves Brute.

The white light leaves Brute.

The dull golden nimbus fades from around Brute.

The misty halo fades from Brute.

Deep blue motes swirl away from Brute and fade.

The deep blue glow leaves Brute.

Brute becomes unbalanced for a second, then recovers.

Brute appears to lose some internal strength.

The powerful look leaves Brute.

The air calms down around Brute.

The light blue glow leaves Brute.

Sammoon grins at Yairra.

Vendayan begins chuckling at Yairra!

With a final metallic hum, the whir of gears from within Yardie's leather herb kit stutters to a halt.

Vendayan just went north.

Yairra grins at Aliashyrah.

Bilz's sentient potato whistles a jaunty little ditty!

The sky all around is white with falling snow.

Roelon nods at Jehance.

Bilz plays a knobby sentient potato bound with some ambrominas leaf to his ear.

Willm just arrived.

Brute summons a torrent of spiritual mana and releases upon himself a flurry of abjurations.

Brute reaches into the depths of his wyrmscale herb kit. A measured liquid cadence, like muted waves, begins to emanate from it.

Brute rubs his globe of ether, causing shadows to coalesce and enshroud him completely.

Brute suddenly fades into view.

Brute rubs his signet and fog billows from it in a thick cloud, quickly obscuring his form from sight. As the murk clears, you see Brute is no longer there.

A lamenting mountain spirit hurriedly flits out of sight.

Roelon deeply says, "Then let us be off."

Olgretien pours himself a mug of strong Elanthian coffee.

Lithyia nods at Roelon.

Traveling up the Mountain

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trace, North Road - 2301] (u4042022)

The crowd is thinned by the hour, swirling sluggishly past the entrance of an ornate stone edifice with stained glass windows, where a scattering of half-krolvin and giantkin loiter to await a merchant's arrival. Several mages in colorful robes, all of them wearing scarves and mufflers, make their way from the west, while a few priests in more muted cassocks shuffle south toward taverns after a day of prayers. Lamp posts proceed down the roadside in an alternating pattern, casting pools of honeyed light on the cobblestones. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Yairra, Perigourd, Bathcwyn Missoni, Jehance, Ambassador Lilanna, Lady Aliashyrah, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Xanlin, Wolfloner, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Olgretien, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: north, east, south, west

Sammoon nods.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Temple Burrow, Oleani Way - 2303] (u4042001)

Homes line the road, their doors painted in a riot of colors. The dwellings follow no set plan, ranging from stately pine lodges to round-doored burrows tucked into the sides of nearby hillocks. One grey stone manse is secured by a black wrought iron gate. The road is mostly quiet in the dark, though a scattering of travelers walk the road. A ladder leans against the side of a freshly painted house, empty buckets at its base. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Yairra, Perigourd, Bathcwyn Missoni, Jehance, Ambassador Lilanna, Lady Aliashyrah, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Xanlin, Wolfloner, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Olgretien, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: northeast, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Temple Burrow, Oleani Way - 2304] (u4042007)

Chunks of broken ice litter the cobblestone street near its intersection with a snow-covered stone path. They glint like daggers in the frigid starlight. Northward looms the glacier, its bulk rising above the rooftops of dwellings, a vast blackness against the starry curtain of night. Vivid teal and murky green lacquer twines over the surface of a wrought iron gate, beyond which sprawls a splendid ice garden. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Yairra, Perigourd, Bathcwyn Missoni, Jehance, Ambassador Lilanna, Lady Aliashyrah, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Xanlin, Wolfloner, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Olgretien, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: southeast, southwest

With a slight roll of his shoulder, Randsford slides a white eonake knight's aegis bound by shimmering silver and imbedded with emeralds that form the symbol of the goddess Oleani free and grips it tightly in one hand. A spray of silvery white motes skitters over the surface of the aegis before fizzling out with a fading howl.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly through a wrought iron gate, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trace, Ice Garden - 3365] (u4043800)

Alpine flowerbeds ring this tucked-away courtyard, their bright colors a feast for the eyes in comparison to the white of all the snow that lies beyond the gate. Tamped snow paths keep footsteps soft in this small haven as travellers make their way to and from the chambers north of here. Centered in a bed of white edelweiss and aromatic purple-flowered calamintha is an ice fountain, its watery spray frozen in a sparkling plume. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a sad aurora spirit that is flying around, a frost-covered glass box, a wrought iron gate, an iron-banded birchwood barrel and a blanket of snow.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Yairra, Perigourd, Bathcwyn Missoni, Jehance, Ambassador Lilanna, Lady Aliashyrah, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Xanlin, Wolfloner, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Olgretien, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon, Great Lady Axyome

Obvious paths: north

Dabble just came through a wrought iron gate.

Dabble looks distant for a brief moment.

Dabble looks distant for a brief moment.

Dabble looks distant for a brief moment.

Dabble looks distant for a brief moment.

Dabble blurs into a white fog and vanishes!

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

A frost-covered yellow-eyed silvery lor mandrake toddles into the area and up to Missoni.

Axyome's orase runestaff vanishes into the depths of her mist tartan cloak. As it leaves her hands, the illumination of its sigils slowly ebbs away.

Great Lady Axyome just went through a wrought iron gate.

Perigourd just went through a wrought iron gate.

Bathcwyn Missoni flounces through a wrought iron gate amidst a diffuse cloud of prismatic glitter.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

The lor mandrake toddles off.

You quietly whisper to Roelon, "I can if you'd like."

Roelon whispers, "One momment."

The sky all around is white with falling snow.

The tartan-furred dormouse on Roelon's shoulder makes a sudden flying leap, apparently trying to gain access to the top of his head. Muttering under his breath, he manages to herd the recalcitrant rodent back to his shoulder.

Great Lady Axyome just came through a wrought iron gate.

Yardie asks, "Where are we heading?"

Roelon deeply says, "Prepare yirselves."

Roelon nods slowly.

Yairra gazes up into the heavens.

Lithyia nods.

Sammoon points up.

Yairra deftly removes the villswood runestaff from her harness.

Lilanna removes a headless bunny-crested pink rolaren shield from in her leather sword bandolier.

Aliashyrah teases, speaking to Roelon, "Lost already?"

Roelon looks distant for a brief moment.

Sammoon grins at Aliashyrah.

Dabbo just came through a wrought iron gate.

Roelon says, speaking deeply to Aliashyrah, "Always."

Dabbo looks distant for a brief moment.

Dabbo looks distant for a brief moment.

Dabbo blurs into a white fog and vanishes!

Sammoon says, speaking to Aliashyrah, "Part ranger."

Dendum says, speaking to Yardie, "The giant hall."

Sorlu snickers.

Sammoon nods.

Aliashyrah's serpentine armbands visibly darken before pulsing a shade of jade-tinted black.

Your surroundings blur into a white fog . . .

[Nightmare Gorge - 2808] (u4563032)

The tumbled boulders corrupting the trail become almost impassable here in the gorge's elbow. Stone piled on cracked and icy layers of more stone threaten to clutch at feet and ankles. Occasional fingers of bone reach up from the snowy rubble, marking where creatures have succumbed to the treachery of the course.

Also here: Fisher Roelon, Chronicler Falvicar, Yairra, Jehance, Ambassador Lilanna, Lady Aliashyrah, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Xanlin, Wolfloner, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Olgretien, Lord Randsford

Obvious paths: northeast, northwest

A massive snowy white tiger saunters in.

An animated falchion glides in.

Pale red light ripples over Roelon's leather hiking boots.

Randsford says, speaking to Aliashyrah, "Better question is if he was ever found."

Lilanna changes her tune, adding a new element to her song...

Lilanna skillfully begins to weave another verse into her harmony.

A sense of peace and calm settles over the area.

A resplendent obsidian black raven glides into view.

Randsford nods slowly at Aliashyrah.

Sammoon grins.

The shrieking winds become suddenly violent. The temperature drops drastically, numbing your extremities in a heartbeat. You cannot see through the flying snow and ice, and it looks as though you may be in trouble!

Sorlu grins at Randsford.

Lithyia shivers.

Lilanna put a headless bunny-crested pink rolaren shield in her leather sword bandolier.

Talliver ponders.

Sammoon leans to his right slightly.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Randsford, "I do not think he is ready to face that question yet."

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northwest, with his group following closely.

[Nightmare Gorge - 2809] (u4563031)

The walls of the gorge are marked with a variety of cracks and crevices, seen in sketchy detail at best through the blowing snow and sleet. An army could hide up in such a jumble of rocks without risk of discovery. The scant excuse for a trail is forced to veer to the south by a formation of large boulders jutting from the ravine's north precipice. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Yairra, Jehance, Ambassador Lilanna, Lady Aliashyrah, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Xanlin, Wolfloner, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Olgretien, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: southeast, west

A sense of peace and calm settles over the area.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly west, with his group following closely.

[Nightmare Gorge - 2810] (u4563030)

Jagged crags of stone tower up on either side from a broken field of boulders made more treacherous by ice and snow. The gorge snakes its way west, twisting out of sight around a large outcrop of stone protruding from the north face in the distance. Here and there, scraggly bushes crouch between the rocks, their branches cloaked in a layer of ice. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Yairra, Jehance, Ambassador Lilanna, Lady Aliashyrah, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Xanlin, Wolfloner, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Olgretien, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: east

Randsford chuckles.

Yairra begins to climb up the rocks. Moving gracefully, she seems to skip across the short protrusions in their surface. Before long, she is standing at the top.

A gale-force gust of freezing wind suddenly swooshes through the narrow gorge, kicking up clouds of snow and ice that send the gorge's environs into a swirling, grey twilight.

Your arms are forced down to your sides!

The wind then subsides.

Aliashyrah starts to climb the rocks. Effortlessly she moves up them, barely looking to break a sweat.

A sense of peace and calm settles over the area.

Roelon taps some large rocks.

You skillfully move up the rocks. Before you have even begun to pant, your climb comes to an end at the top.

[Northern Slopes, Rocky Incline - 2811] (u4563026)

The precarious path down the steep face of the bluff levels off briefly, forming a small ledge with dangerously unstable edges. Wind whips by, buffeting the precipice with sleet and snow. Lodged pitifully in a pile of boulders next to the sheer rock face lies the carcass of an antelope. Its limbs are broken across the granite, and little more than a pile of hide and protruding bones remains of the graceful creature, mute testament to the brutality of the region. You also see the discordant Yairra disk and some large rocks.

Also here: Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra

Obvious paths: up

Yairra just went up.

Lithyia just climbed up some large rocks.

Lilanna just climbed up some large rocks.

Seven phantom tentacles sprout from the base of Aliashyrah's spine, wrapping her in a binding embrace.

Aliashyrah gestures into the air.

Aliashyrah momentarily gets a faroff look in her eyes, and then returns to normal.

Sammoon yells, "Clear!"

Seven phantom tentacles sprout from the base of Aliashyrah's spine, wrapping her in a binding embrace.

Aliashyrah gestures into the air.

A silvery fog coalesces around Aliashyrah, obscuring her form. When the fog dissipates, Aliashyrah is gone.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

A heavy snow falls, sculpting everything into round white curves.

Sammoon says, "Dat was."

Sammoon says, "Interestin."

Roelon deeply asks, "Everyone gathered?"

Lithyia nods at Roelon.

A sense of peace and calm resettles over the area.

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly up, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2812] (u4563025)

An embankment of granite swallows the trail abruptly, its demise marked by a small circular patch of ground covered with loose shale and stones. Past the embankment, the ground drops away into shadowy depths, leaving only clouds and blowing snow visible from the path. The wind is cruelly edged, blowing up from the dark gorge with a fury. A rickety sign stands crookedly beside the gravel turn, with rough letters inscribed that proclaim the warning, 'Beware'. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Olgretien, Chronicler Falvicar, Sammoon, Lord Randsford, Xanlin, Jehance, Jastalyn, Wolfloner, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: east, down

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2813] (u4563024)

Large, snow-covered boulders ridge the trail on the north, forming a low embankment that plunges down into a gorge. The forest stands to the south, rising up the mountain in frosted tones ranging from green to black, dotted with splotches of white where snow has found purchase on the tree branches. Brisk winds gust up from the gorge, whipping the nearby trees and casting mists of snow across the panorama. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Olgretien, Chronicler Falvicar, Sammoon, Lord Randsford, Xanlin, Jehance, Jastalyn, Wolfloner, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: south, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly south, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2814] (u4563021)

A stand of hemlock trees mix with the other conifers, adding the gnarled silhouette of their branches to that of the pines. Wind moves the limbs in a lazy dance, occasionally launching puffs of snow from them with a heavy gust. The trail begins a gentle descent to the north, where vestiges of ground fog cluster and creep through the tree trunks. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Olgretien, Chronicler Falvicar, Sammoon, Lord Randsford, Xanlin, Jehance, Jastalyn, Wolfloner, Lord Sorlu, Mayor Talliver, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: north, southwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southwest, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2815] (u4563020)

The silence of the pines is gently broken by an occasional rustle in the underbrush. A thin sound of wind whistling through branches adds to the chorale, the gusts heavily laden with the rich loamy scent of the forest. The path curves around a thick growth of rhododendron that edges the trail on its western shoulder. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and an icy trail.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2814] (u4563021)

A stand of hemlock trees mix with the other conifers, adding the gnarled silhouette of their branches to that of the pines. Wind moves the limbs in a lazy dance, occasionally launching puffs of snow from them with a heavy gust. The trail begins a gentle descent to the north, where vestiges of ground fog cluster and creep through the tree trunks. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2813] (u4563024)

Large, snow-covered boulders ridge the trail on the north, forming a low embankment that plunges down into a gorge. The forest stands to the south, rising up the mountain in frosted tones ranging from green to black, dotted with splotches of white where snow has found purchase on the tree branches. Brisk winds gust up from the gorge, whipping the nearby trees and casting mists of snow across the panorama. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly west, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2812] (u4563025)

An embankment of granite swallows the trail abruptly, its demise marked by a small circular patch of ground covered with loose shale and stones. Past the embankment, the ground drops away into shadowy depths, leaving only clouds and blowing snow visible from the path. The wind is cruelly edged, blowing up from the dark gorge with a fury. A rickety sign stands crookedly beside the gravel turn, with rough letters inscribed that proclaim the warning, 'Beware'. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly down, with his group following closely.

[Northern Slopes, Rocky Incline - 2811] (u4563026)

The precarious path down the steep face of the bluff levels off briefly, forming a small ledge with dangerously unstable edges. Wind whips by, buffeting the precipice with sleet and snow. Lodged pitifully in a pile of boulders next to the sheer rock face lies the carcass of an antelope. Its limbs are broken across the granite, and little more than a pile of hide and protruding bones remains of the graceful creature, mute testament to the brutality of the region. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, the Anyauma disk and some large rocks.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly down an icy trail, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Bluff - 2816] (u4563019)

The trees open into a clearing bound on one side by a fallen log. The tree trunk's wood is rotted in parts, and coated with thick moss and snow elsewhere. It points away from the thick stands of pines, as if gesturing to the south where the ground disappears, dropping into a sheer cliff of granite that shelters a pool nestled at its feet. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a grizzly bear, a grizzly bear and a grizzly bear.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2821] (u4563022)

The forest grows close and thick, crowding the path with low branches, their tips buried in drifts of snow. Shafts of moonlight angle down through the trees here and there, cleanly defined by the heavy foliage. Every so often, clumps of snow fall to the ground from above with soft plops, dislodged by wind or one of the squirrels, which caper frenetically through the upper regions of the pines. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Pine Forest - 2820] (u4563023)

The path doglegs, diverted by a small stream which trickles through a jumble of boulders and fallen tree trunks. The watercourse is negligible, its edges encased in crystals of ice, and its path often lost in drifts of snow which cover it like thick white bridges. It parallels the path briefly, then veers off and disappears around a stand of dogwood. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a grizzly bear and a grizzly bear.

[Northern Mountains, Timberline - 2819] (u4563016)

The forest is absolute, the thick pine trunks crowding close to the path on all sides. The trees intertwine their heavily needled boughs into impassable walls which support daubs of pristine snow like diamonds upon a finger. The trail breaks into three directions, each avenue winding away into the forest and soon lost in the thick verdure. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a grizzly bear and a grizzly bear.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Timberline - 2822] (u4563015)

The trail meanders and curves, dancing around the feet of trees that grow more substantial the higher one climbs. Above, an opening in the branch cover allows moonlight to reach a number of dogwood trees huddling in the small clearing. An immense giant of a pine stands staunchly to the north, its feet and lower branches forcing the path to sneak past by veering southwest. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Northern Slopes, Bluff - 2823] (u4563014)

As the altitude rises, the air grows more crisp and biting, full of the rich aroma manufactured by the pines. The bluff is a narrow ridge of stone, banded on the north by thick stands of trees, and open to the wind on the south, where the trail disappears down into the jumble of boulders creating a steep incline. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a steep granite slope.

[Northern Slopes, Clearing - 2824] (u4563013)

The pines open into a clearing produced by a large outcrop of boulders in its center. A number of rhododendron bushes grow in a clump against the rock, their oval leaves curled into thin fingers with the cold. The trail disappears at the foot of an incline, where more of the granite breaks through the loam and displays a face banded with minerals. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a steep granite incline.

[Northern Slopes, Forest Trail - 2825] (u4563012)

The trees are interrupted by a swath of tumbled boulders, lying in the snow like sleeping mammoths, their backs furred and fringed with lichens. A few more of the small, hardy bushes flaunt their colorful reds and oranges among the more somber arrays of the lichens. The trail winds through the rocks and climbs through the pines to the east. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Northern Slopes, Snowy Drifts - 2826] (u4563009)

Tall green giants lift their needled branches in graceful arcs, some weighted down with thick sleeves of snow, vivid white against the near-black boughs of the pines. The sound of the river to the south has faded into the fog, which shifts in a silent dance and frays the further north one looks. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and an arctic wolverine.

[Northern Slopes, Snowy Drifts - 2834] (u4563011)

The trail dwindles to nothing, engulfed by the gentle swells of deep snow drifts that surround the trunks of the conifers like a stark, frozen ocean. Here and there, animal tracks mar the snow's surface, leaving deep indentations. They create an erratic pattern that circles and backtracks, then meanders away through the drifts as if following an invisible path. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly down a snowy path leading through the drifts, with his group following closely.

[Northern Slopes, Snowy Drifts - 2835] (u4565001)

A fierce wind drives the heavy white snow forcefully into knee-deep drifts, eradicating any sign of passage. A forested slope rises in the snow-obscured distance. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a snowy path winding away through the drifts.

Queatus grins.

Confidently, you begin to climb up the cliff. Within a short time, you have reached the top.

[Northern Slopes, Quiet Forest - 2838] (u4565004)

The thick tree coverage runs up to the edge of a steep cliff and provides welcome shelter from the harsh wind. Without those frigid gusts howling through the tree branches, the forest is remarkably peaceful. Several sets of tracks wind chaotically through the forest, and a few disappear up a fairly steep incline. You also see the Anyauma disk, the clam-shaped Lithyia disk, the glossy pink Lilanna disk shaped like a jellyfish and the Xanlin disk.

Broken branches poke through the snow, surrounding a massive fallen pine tree. The wind blows through the forest, making pine needles quiver and shaking a light dusting of snow from them. Several trees on a well-forested incline sway gently with each rush of cold wind. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a snow leopard.

Anyauma begins to climb up the incline. Moving gracefully, she seems to skip across the short protrusions in its surface. Before long, she is standing at the top.

Gracefully, your feet skip across the short protrusions of the incline. Before long, you find yourself standing at the top.

[Mountains, Quiet Forest - 2847] (u4565014)

A clearing can be seen to the west, and low, steady, rhythmic tones come from that direction. Several sets of fresh footprints can be found here, leading deeper into the forest in various directions, and a few of the trails appear to lead from a slippery incline. You also see the Xanlin disk, the Anyauma disk, the glossy pink Lilanna disk shaped like a jellyfish, a caribou, the clam-shaped Lithyia disk, the Wolfloner disk, a caribou and a massive snowy white tiger.

Anyauma joins Roelon's group.

Roelon deeply says, "The short one is at the pass at least."

An animated falchion glides in.

Talliver just climbed up a forested incline.

Roelon glances west.

Talliver joins Roelon's group.

The frost white ermine on Jastalyn's shoulder slinks downwards, controlling its descent with scrabbly little claws, until it disappears with a curious squeak into a suede-sleeved rose paeline jacket pinned with a Twilight Hall Chairwoman insignia.

Roelon nods slowly.

A caribou lopes west.

You quietly say, "That was the last climb needed."

Pale red light ripples over Roelon's leather hiking boots.

The caribou seems to be gradually slowing down, her muscles trembling with fatigue.

You join Roelon.

You feel a subdued warmth through your arms and torso, accompanied by a preponderant sense of engagement.

The warmth works its way toward you, and your shield arm feels much more nimble.

Your spirit is empowered with an overwhelming sense of determination and resolve.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly west, with his group following closely.

[Northern Mountains, Clearing - 2848] (u4565015)

Verdant and clad in fresh snowfall, the dense pine forest gives way to a large clearing near the mouth of a high pass. Marking the perimeters of the glade are singularly immense totems carved from pine, their features weathered by the onslaught of the northern gale. Each of the totems bears a different face, but all stare mutely, patiently standing watch despite the grinding of time's cruel teeth. The largest is immense, several times the height of a tall man, but most are merely huge and imposing. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a caribou, a caribou and a resplendent obsidian black raven that is flying around.

A caribou lopes southwest.

Roelon adds Dendum to his group.

Faint frosty white filaments spiral inward from the local surroundings and weave themselves around you.

A sense of peace and calm settles over the area.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly up a high pass, with his group following closely.

[The Giantroad, Pass - ] (u4427001)

Powdery snow blankets the tableland near the northern end of a high pass, glinting in the frigid starlight like diamond dust. A pale stone roadway, nearly concealed by the shiftless drifts, climbs to follow the rise of the terrain, delving northward toward a shrouded mountain in the distance. Hardy pines dotting the landscape leaven the sea of white with rare glimpses of rich greenery, standing proud and tall despite the weight of the snowfall. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: northeast

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[The Giantroad, Arete - ] (u4427002)

Broken and devoured by time, a road of pale stone loses itself in deep snow as the highland plain gives way to a craggy arete. To the north, the niveous thread of cultivated roadway reappears as it curves to avoid the white-clad slope of an abutting mountain. Wind wails through the passes, low, mournful, and musical at once. It sways the branches of nearby pines into a slow, funereal dance. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Conquerer of Reim Anyauma, Xanlin, Queatus, Ambassador Lilanna, Jastalyn, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Lord Randsford, Lord Sorlu, Jehance, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Mayor Talliver, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: north, southwest

With great skill, Lilanna removes one of the chords from her harmony while maintaining the symmetry of those that remain.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[The Giantroad, Watcher - ] (u4427003)

Undermined by the relentless prying of snowmelt, a face of the adjacent mountain has sheared away, collapsing into rubble that blocks much of the ancient white roadway. Revealed by the rockslide, a vast stone figure strains from the wounded mountainside, one cracked hand outstretched as if reaching skyward. Much of the colossal form is still trapped within the unyielding rock of the mountain. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Conquerer of Reim Anyauma, Xanlin, Queatus, Ambassador Lilanna, Jastalyn, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Lord Randsford, Lord Sorlu, Jehance, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Mayor Talliver, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: south, northwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northwest, with his group following closely.

[The Giantroad, Shattered Tower - ] (u4427004)

Judging from the copious jags of rubble poking out of the deep snows, the tower that stands near the western edge of the pale stone road once stretched high into the sky. It has been brought low, and all that remains is a broken ruin as squat and useless as a spent candle. What remains of the arched entrance suggests that it was once an entryway of staggering height. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Conquerer of Reim Anyauma, Xanlin, Queatus, Ambassador Lilanna, Jastalyn, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Lord Randsford, Lord Sorlu, Jehance, Sammoon, Plantsman Dendum, Mayor Talliver, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: north, southeast

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[The Giantroad, Gorge - ] (u4427005)

The broken remains of the ancient white road travel up to the jagged rim of a steep gorge. So deep is the gouge in the earth that its furthest reaches are lost in impenetrable shadow, and it would serve as an impassable hazard save for a colossal stone bridge spanning the chasm. Though ancient, the carvings on the bridge are deep-graven, depicting preternaturally beautiful figures in a variety of scenes. Beyond the bridge rises a mountain, its peak lost in the clouds overhead. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: south

You stretch.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly across a colossal stone bridge, with his group following closely.

[The Giantroad, Crystalmount - ] (u4427006)

Accessible only by the virtue of a colossal stone bridge, a broad ledge juts out of one of the lowest faces of a lofty mountain that stretches into the swirling clouds above. A vast breach yawns out of the cragged mountainside, and lightless gloom beckons beyond. Despite the snow that heavily blankets the mountain, the space before the ragged aperture is mostly clear. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: none

Lithyia whispers something to Queatus.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly into a vast yawning breach, with his group following closely.

[Crystalmount, Cavern - ] (u4427007)

The faintest hint of starlight filters through a vast yawning breach in the western wall of the cavern, but the tenuous curtain of radiance does little to throw back the surrounding gloom. It gleams feebly off of puddles of snowmelt near to the entrance, but they proceed into deeper shadow and are consumed by darkness. Reflected ripples off of the water do not reach the cavern's distant ceiling. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious exits: north

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Crystalmount, Cavern - ] (u4427008)

Away from the light of the sun or moons, hints of luminescence thrive within the blackness of the cavern. Lichen cascades down the smooth-worn stone walls in a dimly glowing tapestry, and the same green-white glow suffuses the few insects that squirm and writhe in the darkness. Puddles of snowmelt make for a treacherous path through the cumbrous lightlessness. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northwest, with his group following closely.

[Crystalmount, Giant Camp - ] (u4427009)

Firelight from the west throws back the shadows, illuminating makeshift shelters erected from logs and stitched skins. The crude dwellings are huge, but they are dwarfed by the scope of the cavern, the lichen-clad ceiling of which seems impossibly distant. Great weapons, clubs and axes too large for most humanoids, lean against a near wall, crafted from steel, pine, and pitch. Sacks of stout leather are heaped together and are brimming with dried provisions. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious exits: northeast, southeast, west

Arrive at the Ancient Seal

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Crystalmount, Ancient Seal - ] (u4427011)

Glowing curtains of lichen cast strange illumination over a flat cavern wall that is covered with ancient etchings. Spared the cruelty of the elements, they are deep-graven and simple, featuring long-limbed figures hunting, sowing, and harvesting. At the center of the wall, a pair of round double doors gleams in the unearthly light, golvern rivets more brilliant than the precious veil iron from which they are predominantly wrought. The vast entryway is dozens of feet high at its zenith. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, the Aliashyrah disk, a smoky fire wyrdling, the web-draped Missoni disk, the repousse copper Perigourd disk raised in leafy designs and a lazy wild midnight black dog.

Vrigge's group just went through a round pair of veil iron double doors.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly through a round pair of veil iron double doors, with his group following closely.

[Crystalhall, Grand Antechamber - ] (u4427012)

Ancient hexagonal braziers of bronze stand to either side of the immense double doors to the antechamber, their roaring flames casting back the cavern's gloom. The hewn stone ceiling is inlaid with bands of golvern that are gold against the black of the rock. Pennants stitched with rampant mules, leaping flames, shards of ice, and other devices fly from polished bronze mounts beneath galleries that overlook the entryway, accompanied by garlands of iceblossom and holly with bright-colored blooms. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a smoky fire wyrdling.

[Crystalhall, South Gallery - ] (u4427013)

A wide gallery curves in a gentle crescent, following the southern wall of the cavernous hall. Its northern edge stretches out over a vast chasm that plummets into unleavened darkness, but a masterfully carved railing of hoarbeam stands between the unwary and the pit. A pathway is formed of cubed cerulean glaes set into the black stone of the gallery walk, intricate golden inlay forming a border between the two. The stonework is exceptional in its detail and evenness.

The glowing specks of energy surrounding Sammoon suddenly shoot off in all directions, then quickly fade away.

A holy aura radiates from Falvicar's night black platemail.

Talliver says, speaking to Vrigge, "That's rarely how Turamzzyrians work, I've found."

Talliver chuckles.

Sorlu says, speaking quietly to Dendum, "If we received a good price, it's acceptable."

Lilanna grimaces as her black rat suddenly cranes around her face to see something, its paw anchored onto her nose. A sudden slip sends the rodent flailing and clinging wildly to Lilanna's front before scrambling back up to her shoulder with an embarrassed and sulky squeak.

Sorlu nods at Dendum.

Lithyia giggles at Talliver.

Perigourd furrows his brow.

Perigourd glances warily at Talliver.

Randsford just left.

Wolfloner points south.

Missoni evenly says, "Juramis was fair, I am sure."

Lithyia's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around her arms.

Lithyia grins.

Lilanna's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around her arms.

An intense chill fills the air surrounding Roelon.

Wolfloner's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around his arms.

Randsford just arrived.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

The sound of the wind whistling comes from outside.

Talliver says, speaking to Perigourd, "I mean no offense."

Randsford joins Vrigge's group.

Lithyia exclaims, "Eh, enough talk about Juramis! Let's celebrate!"

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

Perigourd chuckles.

Anyauma smiles.

Sorlu grins.

Sammoon raises an eyebrow.

Anyauma agrees with Lithyia.

Perigourd says, speaking to Talliver, "I know well Juramis' desire to make some measure of profit."

Anyauma smiles.

Talliver says, speaking to Perigourd, "But our trade dealings with the Empire rarely end in free goods."

Talliver nods.

Aemergin says, "Nothing is ever free."

Mayor Talliver just went west.

Mayor Talliver just arrived.

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

Blade Yardie just arrived.

Sammoon says, "Start with, then end expensive."

Talliver joins Vrigge's group.

Wolfloner nods at Yardie.

Blade Yardie just went south.

Sorlu smiles yard

The animated falchion slowly bobs up and down.

Sorlu stares off into space.

Yairra says, "The hoarbeam railings are really nice."

Lithyia says, "And then he left."

Blade Yardie's group just arrived.

Anyauma appears to be trying hard not to grin.

With great skill, Lilanna removes one of the chords from her harmony while maintaining the symmetry of those that remain.

Lithyia giggles.

Vendayan grins at Yardie.

Lithyia says, "And there he is again."

Lithyia chuckles.

You let out a cheer!

Anyauma flutters her wings at Yardie.

Sorlu chuckles to himself.

Yardie exclaims, "Coold!"

Anyauma smiles at Jastalyn.

Yardie gives Anyauma a friendly hug.

Lithyia laughs at Yardie!

The tension in Sammoon's skin eases and you notice that his complexion returns to normal.

Roelon grins.

Anyauma smiles at Yardie.

Wolfloner nods at Yardie.

Anyauma gives Yardie a friendly hug.

Lithyia asks, "Yardie do i need to knit you a sweater?"

Lithyia glances at Yardie.

Vrigge says, "We should go this way."

Vrigge glances west.

Vrigge's group just went west.

[Crystalhall, South Gallery - ] (u4427017)

Great steps, with smaller ones carved beside them for ease of passage, bridge the space between the southern gallery and another along the cavern's western edge. The stairway passes beneath a vibrant mural, the considerable and obvious age of which has little dimmed its jewel-bright colors. Statues positioned along a high balcony take the shape of adventurers ranging in size from halflings to kindred, holding carved torches aloft as if to hold back the dark.

Also here: Conquerer of Reim Anyauma, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Lord Sorlu, Jehance, Sammoon, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Fisher Roelon, Vendayan, Aemergin, Chronicler Falvicar, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Randsford, Mayor Talliver, Vrigge

Anyauma cocks her head.

Lilanna's sentient potato hums an adventurous tune!

Blade Yardie's group just arrived.

Lithyia gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

Sorlu gazes thoughtfully at a vibrant mural.

Sammoon glances warily around the room.

Randsford says, speaking to Vrigge, "No lingering presence of anything I wanted I hope."

The forest green corona surrounding Perigourd's acorn amulet rotates around in a circle.

Randsford gazes in wonder at his surroundings.

Sammoon casually observes his surroundings.

Anyauma smiles at Lilanna.

Yairra asks, "Was this mural restored?"

Randsford says, "Unwanted."

Randsford coughs.

Lilanna smiles at Anyauma.

Aliashyrah's serpentine armbands vibrate strangely against her skin.

Yardie joins Vrigge's group.

Missoni smiles.

Lilanna lifts a knobby sentient potato from her shoulder.

Lilanna gives her potato a little hug. It smiles and chirps, "Thank you for taking excellent care of me! Someone else would have eaten me for my heart!"

>look mura

The sparkle of the pigments used in the mural suggest that real gemstones were used in their formulation. A glittering midnight blue sky is torn by a blazing aurora of turquoise, golds, and emerald greens. Silhouetted against the radiance is a twisted figure shrouded in bloody hues. The malformed being is beset on all sides by luminous, feminine figures in gold, their wings majestically spread. The artwork appears ancient but is well-preserved.

Lilanna places a knobby sentient potato on her shoulder, which somehow stays put.

Missoni murmurs, speaking to a vibrant mural, "It looks lovely."

Vrigge says, speaking to Yairra, "It needed little work."

A rosy-nosed frost white ermine clambers out from Jastalyn's rose paeline jacket and climbs its way back up to her shoulder, looking quite pleased with itself.

Vrigge says, "Those, however..."

Vrigge lifts her eyes to the statues.

Thin wisps of glittery prismatic haze seep from Missoni's surita staff.

Yairra agrees with Vrigge.

Vrigge says, "We thought those a fitting tribute to your assistance."

Yairra glances up.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Roelon tilts his head up.

Yairra gazes with interest at something in a deeply hooded supple leather cloak with soft fleece lining.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Sorlu nods approvingly at Vrigge.

Dendum gazes with interest at something in a patinated grey leather case embossed with ivy patterns.

Lithyia gazes with interest at something in a ring-bound iron grey leather bandolier.

Talliver says, speaking mildly to Aliashyrah, "That's a fine likeness of you."

Talliver smirks.

Lithyia grins at Talliver.

Aliashyrah begins chuckling at Talliver!

Dendum glances up.

The dog opens its mouth wide in an extended yawn.

Roelon grins.

Vrigge glances at Aliashyrah.

Pale red light ripples over Roelon's leather hiking boots.

Vrigge glances back up to the statues.

Vrigge nods slowly.

Aliashyrah smiles quietly to herself.

Lithyia says, "Dont get a big head."

Yairra glances at something in a deeply hooded supple leather cloak with soft fleece lining.

Lithyia snickers at Aliashyrah.

Lithyia grins at Aliashyrah.

Yairra just closed a deeply hooded supple leather cloak with soft fleece lining.

Vrigge says, speaking to Roelon, "And you, I think."

A halo of flame flares to life about the fire wyrdling, swirling in a widening spiral about her small form before dispersing into the air.

Vrigge points to one of the taller statues.

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

Dendum asks, ""Which one is Sorlu?"

Roelon tilts his head up.

Roelon deeply asks, "Is that ah kilt ...?"

The mirror images surrounding Aemergin undulate and grow stronger.

Aemergin renews his songs.

Aliashyrah smirks at Lithyia.

Sorlu smirks at Yardie.

Roelon bows to Vrigge.

Lithyia begins chuckling at Aliashyrah!

Vendayan asks, speaking to Vrigge, "Had you been considering to adjust the door so that we could visit?"

The dim celadon wisps about Missoni's hands flare up once more and fade completely away.

Yairra replies, speaking casually to Sorlu, "You're not wrong."

>look mural

Vrigge asks, speaking to Vendayan, "What do you mean?"

Vrigge's group just went northwest.

[Crystalhall, West Gallery - ] (u4427018)

A majestic cascade of steps joins the western gallery of the hall with its southern mate. Underfoot, the stones are beautifully inlaid with braids of dark gold that flank inset cubes of vivid blue glaes. Carved penguins, mules, and snowbirds cavort over the face of the wall, the ornate menagerie flanking a mural occupying much of its span.

Sorlu smiles at Yairra.

Jastalyn just arrived.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Vrigge, "Not everyone is as strong as you."

Aliashyrah explains, speaking to Vrigge, "And the doors are quite large."

Vendayan nods in agreement at Aliashyrah.

Jastalyn joins Vrigge's group.

Vrigge says, speaking to Aliashyrah, "We shall leave the doors open."

Monza just came prancing in, with her group following closely behind her.

An icy gust of air blows in from Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

A holy aura radiates from Falvicar's night black platemail.

Lithyia beams happily at Vrigge!

Monza lets out a cheer!

Anyauma smiles.

Aliashyrah nods approvingly at Vrigge.

A matted palm rat scurries into the room.

Monza exclaims, "Thanks for helps!"

Vendayan grins at Vrigge.

Rysul grins.

Sammoon says, "Dandy."

Missoni gazes thoughtfully at a flaking mural.

Vrigge says, "This mural required more work."

Sammoon waves to Monza.

Anyauma flutters her wings, stirring the air slightly.

Monza joins Vrigge's group.

Rysul winks at Sammoon.

Sammoon waves to Rysul.

Perigourd nods approvingly.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moves in looking for its owner.

>look mural

Though obviously less old than much of the surrounding artwork, the painting embodies a decadence in style. It depicts a sprawling humanoid figure clad in a funeral shawl. Were the corpse standing, it would tower over the tallest trees of the forest in the image's background. Smaller beings, vibrantly varied in shape and color, squabble in the being's shadow, some clutching orbs of flame, others shards of ice, and still more thunderbolts and other arcane weapons.

Rysul joins Vrigge's group.

A dark-maned pale golden tiger's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around his arms.

Vrigge says, "But only so much can be done before it is not as it was."

Aerocus joins Vrigge's group.

A massive snowy white tiger glances warily about, her large ears rotating as she scents the air.

Sammoon takes a few steps toward a flaking mural.

Wolfloner nods at Vrigge.

You nod understandingly.

Sorlu leans leisurely on his Nalfein-styled cane, a thoughtful expression upon his face.

You gaze with interest at a flaking mural.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moving around with its numerous limbs finds an air current and begins to glide within it for a long moment, its delicate pages rippling in the breeze. As the gale fades, the compendium dips down before flapping its numerous limbs back to its previous height.

The fire wyrdling crouches down low, scanning the room with her dimly glowing eyes.

Vrigge's group just went north.

[Crystalhall, West Gallery - ] (u4427019)

Ornate gold and silver inlay arcs outward in splendorous rays from a pair of double doors in the western wall. Above the keystone, a crowned cockatrice is picked out in brilliant gilding, its claws outstretched. Chandeliers of tremendous size hang from the ceiling high overhead, forged from golvern and glaes, holding thousands of beeswax candles aloft. The air is gently honeyed by their scent, a testament to their number despite the vastness of the hall.

Also here: Conquerer of Reim Anyauma, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Lord Sorlu, Jehance, Sammoon, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Fisher Roelon, Vendayan, Aemergin, Chronicler Falvicar, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Randsford, Mayor Talliver, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Monza, Aerocus, Rysul, Vrigge

Obvious exits: north, east, south

Strong winds can be heard coming from outside.

A matted palm rat scurries into the room.

Sammoon gazes heavenward.

You slowly and deliberately empty your filled lungs.

Vrigge says, "The damaged chambers were the most difficult to recover."

You sniff.

The dim aura fades from around Yairra.

Roelon tugs on the voluminous tartan-lined hood of his black leather duster, allowing it to shadow his face.

Sammoon says, "Nice lights."

Sorlu nods at Vrigge.

Monza gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moves in looking for its owner.

Lithyia gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

Falvicar nods understandingly.

Anyauma smiles.

Missoni tilts her head up.

Monza exclaims, "This place is huge!"

Sorlu grins at Aliashyrah.

Nosing about inside Roelon's collar, the tartan-furred dormouse eventually sits up with a dried-up dropping clutched in its jaws. Letting the discovery fall to the ground, the tartan-furred dormouse chitters at Roelon, obviously annoyed at his lack of hygiene.

Anyauma agrees with Monza.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Vrigge, "I am currious to see what was done with the throne."

Vrigge says, speaking sadly to Sammoon, "Of old, there would have been orbs created by the ancestors, lighting this place more brightly than day."

Aemergin gazes in wonder at his surroundings.

Xanlin waves at the Xanlin disk in a dismissing gesture.

The Xanlin disk disintegrates.

Dendum glances up.

Aliashyrah's serpentine armbands glow jade-tinted black.

Vrigge says, "Now, we have mere candles, but they are lovely in their own way."

Lithyia agrees with Vrigge.

Nosing about inside Aerocus's collar, the sewer rat eventually sits up with a dried-up dropping clutched in its jaws. Letting the discovery fall to the ground, the sewer rat chitters at Aerocus, obviously annoyed at his lack of hygiene.

Vrigge's group just went through some tall golvern-framed double doors.

[Crystalhall, Suite - ] (u4427029)

Rearing basilisk statues proceed down the length of the hallway, staring down from niches along its even march. Their jeweled eyes glint in the torchlight illuminating the passage. Pillars of glaes twined with intricate golden tracery stretch up into the darkness, uniting into arches far overhead. Underfoot, the floor tiles are slabs of igneous stone, evenly fitted together to show nary a seam. Double doors in the eastern wall are framed by concentric rings of gilt.

Lithyia grins at Randsford.

Yairra says, "Candlelight is very calming."

Anyauma grins.

Monza giggles.

Missoni flashes a quick grin at Perigourd.

Sammoon says, "Dem chadeliers."

Sorlu removes a pale green stylized wisp candle from in his midnight suede rucksack.

Lithyia says, "I'm sure Vrigge is saving that for last."

A matted palm rat scurries into the room.

Anyauma agrees with Yairra.

Jehance nods at Yairra.

Lithyia nods at Randsford.

Sammoon nods.

Sorlu says, "If another were needed.."

Aliashyrah asks, speaking to Talliver, "Could something like Ellerel's idea be used up here?"

Sorlu glances at Vrigge.

Roelon casually observes his surroundings.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moves in looking for its owner.

Sorlu brushes his fingers lightly against his stylized wisp candle.

Monza's gold earring pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a bright gold amulet accented with an emerald remains.

Lilanna waves at the glossy pink Lilanna disk shaped like a jellyfish in a dismissing gesture.

The glossy pink Lilanna disk shaped like a jellyfish disintegrates.

Lithyia gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

Aliashyrah grins at Sorlu.

Tiny flames lick along the fire wyrdling's shoulders, dancing merrily before dying away.

The fire wyrdling shimmers with heat, distorting the air about her into wavering refractions.

Talliver says, speaking to Aliashyrah, "I'm not sure. His idea for Icemule Trace was driven by the presence of so many gas pockets beneath the town."

The palm rat snuffles along the edges of the room, picking up a coating of fluff and dust.

Sammoon chuckles.

Sorlu whispers aloud, speaking to Aliashyrah, "Maybe we'll just leave it here anyway. Couldn't hurt."

The emerald sprite flying above Dendum's shoulder suddenly looks feeble.

Aliashyrah nods in agreement at Sorlu.

Dendum says, "This is well made floor...."

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Vrigge's group just went west.

[Crystalhall, Suite - ] (u4427030)

A silver-fringed banner of stoutfoot wool hangs from the western wall, its field embroidered with a rampant mule. Before it stands a petrified wood desk and a comfortable chair. The desk looks to have once been shattered into chunks, but it has been joined together by veins of dark silver. A granite tablet sits atop the desk, riddled through with cracks but still intact. Nacreous bands of metal stretch down the walls, twisting into intricate weaves to the north and south.

Also here: Conquerer of Reim Anyauma, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Lord Sorlu, Jehance, Sammoon, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Fisher Roelon, Vendayan, Aemergin, Chronicler Falvicar, Plantsman Dendum, Lord Randsford, Mayor Talliver, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Monza, Aerocus, Rysul, Vrigge

Vendayan gestures.

Sorlu gazes thoughtfully at a crumbling granite tablet.

Lithyia gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

Talliver glances at a petrified wood desk joined together with veins of dark silver.

The air around Roelon becomes hot, as waves of heat rise from his leather hiking boots.

Talliver says, speaking to Vrigge, "That's exceptional work."

Anyauma flutters her wings at a blue-upholstered hoarbeam chair traced with patterns of interlocking snowflakes.

Missoni narrows her eyes in concentration, the runes on her arm glimmering briefly. She seems to glow with power!

Missoni gestures.

Missoni's eyes gleam with a newfound understanding.

>look tab

There appears to be something written on it.

>read tab

You try to read a crumbling granite tablet, but the language is not one you know. It looks like it's written in Gigas.

Sammoon says, "Hefty."

Sammoon nods.

Perigourd ponders.

Yairra brushes her fingers lightly against a petrified wood desk joined together with veins of dark silver.

Vrigge says, "We made it from the chunks of the original that were scattered here."

Perigourd raises an eyebrow in Missoni's direction.

Perigourd glances at a crumbling granite tablet.

The dog twists its neck to raise one of its ears up to one side and begins sniffing furiously while staring vacantly ahead.

You quietly say, "Lovely banner."

Missoni nods thoughtfully at Perigourd.

Holding his fireleaf staff before himself, Vendayan focus intently on a sigil illuminated within its grain. In response to his murmured invocation, the sigil's power blazes forth in trails of fiery crimson energy and surges into him!

Vendayan gestures.

Vendayan's eyes gleam with a newfound understanding.

Sammoon nods.

Lilanna leans back, trying to ignore the shuffling of a long-legged black rat as it creeps from one of her shoulders to the other, whacking her a few times in the chin with its long hairless tail.

The very powerful look leaves Yairra.

The white light leaves Yairra.

Vrigge stares thoughtfully at the tablet.

Aliashyrah whispers to the group, "Can anyone comprehend languages and read the tablet?"

Missoni nods at Aliashyrah.

Vendayan nods at Aliashyrah.

Perigourd nods at Missoni.

Vrigge says, "We did not know what to do with the tablet, so we left it here, where it was."

Monza raises her hand.

Missoni reads, "--see now that you have turned against me and abandoned the course. I know you care not for the Tablets, but the continuance of our people is scribed into their holy stone. Without them, we will diminish and decay, just as did our creators."

Monza says, "I cans."

Sorlu nods at Vrigge.

Falvicar tilts his head toward Monza, examining her intently as the tip of one ear twitches briefly.

Yairra says, "I think it's a relic worthy of staying put."

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Missoni continues, "You have left me no choice. I will go into the River of Many Colors and destroy the pathway home. If I cannot have your loyalty, I will have your compliance."

Lithyia agrees with Yairra.

You adopt an agreeable expression.

Missoni concludes, "When the disir come for me, I will have no regrets, save that I could not sway your--"

Talliver carefully says, "We know all too well the difficulty of deciding what to do with tablets."

Anyauma gazes thoughtfully at a crumbling granite tablet.

Sorlu nods appreciatively at Missoni.

Sammoon grins at Talliver.

Roelon agrees with Talliver.

Wolfloner nods at Missoni.

A small forest green will-o'-wisp wildly flits out from inside Perigourd's acorn amulet, hovering around his empty right hand and retreats back inside the amulet.

You mutter indeed.

A pale blue light flickers across the surface of Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

Sammoon asks, "What was dat one's name?"

Randsford says, "More tablets and more disir."

Randsford shakes his head.

Sammoon says, "Darkhatch."

A faint white aura flickers around Falvicar.

Sammoon says, "Er somethin."

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Randsford, "Or perhaps the same tablets and same disir."

Sammoon says, "Crazy witch."

Randsford nods thoughtfully at Aliashyrah.

A bobtailed fishing cat yawns widely and lashes her tail from side to side.

Tiny fissures in the fire wyrdling's skin briefly glow a deep red-orange.

Dendum says, speaking to Randsford, "Hrmm...paper does not often survive the years and years without careful hands keeping it..."

Xanlin folds his hands behind his back.

Dendum says, "So you get tablets."

Vrigge says, "Some of the workers saw them flying last night, these... disir."

Sammoon says, "She popped outta somethin."

Lithyia nods at Vrigge.

Monza gasps.

Sammoon ducks his head.

Lithyia says, "They were a bit unnerving..."

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

A resplendent obsidian black raven flaps low, nearly brushing the top of your head.

Yairra says, speaking to Vrigge, "We all saw them."

The fire wyrdling blinks.

Colored light gathers in the runic lettering scrawled over Sorlu's seed charm as he turns it. You can see winged figures faintly illuminated beneath the stone.

Sammoon moves to stand behind Monza.

Missoni furrows her brow.

You quietly say, "I think I was alseep and missed them all."

Aerocus rubs a crumbling granite tablet.

Lilanna nods to you.

Lithyia says, "It was quite the sight."

Monza says, "I only saw flying zombies."

A pair of sanguine tentacles slither out of Aliashyrah's serpentine armbands and around each other before vanishing.

Lilanna says, "Me too."

Sammoon says, "I need someone taller to hide behind."

>look samm

You see Sammoon Tuckecke.

He appears to be a Half-Elf from Dragach.

He is tall. He appears to be young. He has bright sparkling aqua blue eyes and lightly bronzed skin. He has chin length, soft silky chestnut hair styled neatly back off his temples with a few lose strands falling in his eyes. He has a sharply angular face and a meticulously groomed mustache that partially covers his full lips. He has a lithe, refined stature. He has a weathered black eyepatch covering one of his eyes.

He has a pair of thin angler fish teeth in his left eyebrow, a silver-inlaid carved rosewood pipe clenched between his teeth, and a tattoo of an eight-pointed star on his neck.

He is in good shape.

A ring of icy orbs encircles his hands.

He is wearing a black silk bandana stitched with a white skull and crossbones, an oval-brimmed tan beaver felt hat with a crimson verlok feather tucked into its star-marked black band, an elongated willow leaf, a braided wire torc, a brushed grey wolf fur cloak layered with dark bear pelts, a blue feather-shaped charm, a sandalwood toothpick, a slim pale azure thanot leaf, a plump troll-faced pin, a pair of smoky grey spectacles, a circular obsidian pin set with an umber copper-flecked crystal, a quintuple orb brooch, a drake-winged insignia, a sharp-edged silver star symbol with eight blackened points, a soft grey penguin feather, a White Haven bear head pin, a jet-throated rich crimson sirensong, a slim pale azure thanot leaf, a leather instrument case, an iron-studded shoulder guard made of articulated leather scales, a riveted thick leather knapsack, a set of hooded soft grey robes with crouching tigers on its sides, some brushed steel vambraces set with dark storm agate, a wide silver wrist cuff, a coil of braided white hair, some knotted dark rope handwraps studded with veil iron, a faded gold ring, an ebon leather belt with a crescent-etched imflass buckle, a crimson silk drawstring gem pouch shot through with elaborate blackworking, a large mithril mesh sack, a gold-clasped mithril tackle box, a long dark grey rat fur kilt with jet piping, a small brass cog suspended from a thin silver chain, and a set of lead gray klot with reinforced steel plates.

Vrigge says, "No living giant remembers seeing such a thing before. Some have asked if they may have returned to these skies because of Crystalhall's cleansing."

The very powerful look leaves Sammoon.

The white light leaves Sammoon.

Yairra says, speaking to Sammoon, "Oh, just let a girl protect you."

Yairra moves to stand in front of Sammoon.

(Monza hides sammoon.)

The mirror images surrounding Aemergin undulate and grow stronger.

Aemergin renews his songs.

A rosy-nosed frost white ermine on Jastalyn's shoulder plops down and begins grooming itself with an almost comical air of fastidiousness.

Sammoon nods at Yairra.

Monza's gold amulet pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a shining brass ring crested with an emerald remains.

Vrigge says, "If that is true, it is a good omen."

Perigourd says, speaking to Vrigge, "Perhaps the echo kept them from coming priorly."

Wolfloner nods at Vrigge.

Sorlu agrees with Perigourd.

Falvicar returns to normal color.

The brilliant luminescence fades from around Falvicar.

The glowing specks of energy surrounding Falvicar suddenly shoot off in all directions, then quickly fade away.

Falvicar seems a bit less imposing.

The air about Falvicar stops shimmering.

Falvicar seems to lose some dexterity.

Falvicar takes a deep breath, blinking a couple of times before resuming a calm expression.

A series of ether blue lines suddenly appears on Falvicar's face, quickly racing towards the center of his forehead before detaching and dissipating in the air.

The silvery luminescence fades from around Falvicar.

Falvicar becomes solid again.

The bright luminescence fades from around Falvicar.

You say, speaking quietly to Vrigge, "Good omen's are definitely needed."

Vrigge nods slowly.

Sammoon nods.

Jehance nods.

[Crystalhall, West Gallery - ] (u4427019)

Ornate gold and silver inlay arcs outward in splendorous rays from a pair of double doors in the western wall. Above the keystone, a crowned cockatrice is picked out in brilliant gilding, its claws outstretched. Chandeliers of tremendous size hang from the ceiling high overhead, forged from golvern and glaes, holding thousands of beeswax candles aloft. The air is gently honeyed by their scent, a testament to their number despite the vastness of the hall.

Vrigge's group just went north.

[Crystalhall, West Gallery - ] (u4427021)

A painstakingly detailed relief looms over the bend of the gallery as its crescent mirrors the curve of the cavern wall. Brilliant reds and flashes of silver-gilt punctuate a scene of battle between massive creatures in a snow-covered wood, with many of the combatants standing taller than the surrounding trees. A lazily arcing bridge joins the gallery with one along the northern wall, its railing of bluish silver hoarbeam carved with an artful runic pattern.

Vrigge says, speaking to Talliver, "We thank your town for the wood of the railings."

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Missoni furrows her brow.

Falvicar gazes thoughtfully at a detailed relief.

Dendum says, "You know when the 'Gno had a disagreement between the lines...we held a vote....much more civilized."

Talliver says, "Better to thank the lumberjacks, although they've had double pay for near a month. They may thank you right back in return."

Aemergin leans softly against Anyauma.

Anyauma smiles.

Sorlu chuckles.

The fire wyrdling darts around the room.

Vrigge's group just went northeast.

[Crystalhall, North Gallery - ] (u4427022)

A pale stone weapons rack at the gallery's western end appears to be mostly ornamental in function. The weapons on it have a look of great age, their hafts and handles worn as smooth as glass, but their blades are oiled and sharp in a display of obvious care. Silver-fringed banners in black, teal, and a variety of other colors boast an assemblage of heraldic sigils, but a dark blue banner emblazoned with a rampant mule is given pride of place.

Talliver says, speaking to Yairra, "Work can be cheap, or it can be done swiftly. It shouldn't be both."

Casting an expectant eye down to his slender tan cigar, Aerocus sharply snaps his fingers, and a flame ignites the bowl of the cigar. A curl of salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smoke wends up from his cigar, and he gives it a hearty puff.

Rysul smiles at Sammoon.

Anyauma appears to be trying hard not to grin.

Aerocus takes a moment to observe a pale stone weapons rack.

Aemergin whistles a complicated ditty, impressing you with his virtuosity.

Lithyia chuckles.

A pale blue light flickers across the surface of Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

Sammoon waves to Aerocus.

A thin stream of blue-grey smoke streams from the cigar in Aerocus's hand, drifting upward in a loose coil.

Vrigge says, "These, we have left where they are. They are too heavy to be wielded by all but the largest among us, and even then, not easily."

Aerocus waves to Sammoon.

Randsford just left.

Lithyia asks, "Vrigge... i dont mean to interrupt..well I do... will we see Nootjaeg soon?"

Sorlu nods.

Lithyia grins at Vrigge.

Randsford joins Vrigge's group.

A halo of flame flares to life about the fire wyrdling, swirling in a widening spiral about her small form before dispersing into the air.

Missoni surreptitiously glances at some gigantic veil iron weapons on a pale stone weapons rack.

The black cat licks his left paw, seemingly oblivious to the world around him.

Perigourd says, speaking to Vrigge, "A fair tribute to those who were here before, I'd think."

Roelon nods slowly.

A draft of wind swirls the cigar smoke around Aerocus.

Nosing about inside Aerocus's collar, the sewer rat eventually sits up with a dried-up dropping clutched in its jaws. Letting the discovery fall to the ground, the sewer rat chitters at Aerocus, obviously annoyed at his lack of hygiene.

Talliver says, speaking to Dendum, "When last we saw them, they were covered in spiderwebs as thick as your arm."

You agree with Sammoon.

A massive snowy white tiger becomes solid again.

Anyauma shudders.

Monza gasps.

Monza's brass ring pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a bright silver earring crested with a diamond remains.

Vrigge's group just went east.

[Crystalhall, North Gallery - ] (u4427023)

As imperious as it is dazzling to look upon, a dragon of white and blue diamond tesserae adorns the zenith of an arch framing some tall golvern-framed double doors in the northern wall. Standing to either side are lofty figures of golvern. The twin warriors stand with their hands on downturned greatswords, the features of their faces mostly lost to the shadows near to the cavern's ceiling. Even further overhead, a massive chandelier adorned with glistening stones casts flickering spills of light over the cavern ceiling.

Perigourd says, "Often it is the case that such secrets are lost for the impression of newer techniques."

The fire wyrdling chuckles.

Perigourd chuckles.

Talliver asks, speaking to Vrigge, "This chamber was mostly lost to a cave-in, no?"

Perigourd says, "Not always for the best though."

Oddly enough, Dendum seems somewhat less buoyant.

Vrigge says, "Just so."

Perigourd's acorn amulet flickers various shades of green.

Sorlu says, speaking to Dendum, "Such is the nature of the world. Greatness falters, and eventually becomes wasted."

Jadewood compendium moving around rhythmically flaps its numerous limbs, and the beat is similar to that of a heartbeat. The force the compendium manages to make with each wave of its numerous limbs can be felt in your chest. It soothes you up until the compendium smacks into something and struggles to maintain its height.

A blue-green aura briefly flares up Anyauma's silk badge before dissipating into nothingness.

A halo of flame flares to life about the fire wyrdling, swirling in a widening spiral about her small form before dispersing into the air.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Vrigge says, "Come, you will see what we can do when the strength of giants is wedded to the hard work of you small folk."

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

You glance at a pyrographed jadewood compendium moving around with its numerous limbs.

Vrigge's group just went through some tall golvern-framed double doors.

[Crystalhall, Chamber - ] (u4427031)

Opalescent stone clashes with dark, igneous rock along the smooth-hewn walls, forming beautiful interlocking shapes reminiscent of a thicket of brambles. The chamber's doors are forged from bright golvern, their aureate hue amplified by the dancing flames of torches along the chamber's perimeter. Barrels of provisions and crates of building materials crowd the space, seeming ill-fit for its splendor.

Lithyia nods at Sammoon.

Jastalyn's chestnut amulet flickers various shades of blue.

A bobtailed fishing cat returns to normal color.

The thick plates of bone around Sammoon's forearms begin to crack, then shatter into a fine white dust.

The dog wanders over to Rysul and sniffs at her suspiciously for a moment.

The fire wyrdling shimmers with heat, distorting the air about her into wavering refractions.

Vrigge says, "There are better provisions here than that. All of the giant clans like your idea of a celebration to honor what has been done here, so we have begun to gather what is necessary."

Lithyia just opened a soft knitted orchid-motif shadowy ebon pashmina wrap.

Vrigge's group just went through some tall golvern-framed double doors.

The frost white ermine on Jastalyn's shoulder slinks downwards, controlling its descent with scrabbly little claws, until it disappears with a curious squeak into a suede-sleeved rose paeline jacket pinned with a Twilight Hall Chairwoman insignia.

Monza's silver earring pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a bright brass ring affixed with a rock crystal remains.

Vrigge says, "This chasm to the southeast is too wide of a gap. We do not know how the ancestors managed to span it."

Lithyia says, "A GIANT party if you will."

Lithyia groans.

Lithyia grins stupidly.

Monza asks, "This was owned by giants?"

A resplendent obsidian black raven flaps low, nearly brushing the top of your head.

Talliver nods at Vrigge.

The dog cocks its head to one side and raises its muzzle up into the air, sniffing anxiously. After a moment, the fur of its ruff bristles, and it begins to growl at the shadows.

Perigourd gazes southeast.

Vrigge says, speaking to Monza, "Our ancestors, yes."

Curls of cigar smoke linger about Aerocus in a salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented scented haze.

Vrigge's group just went south.

[Crystalhall, Dais Bridge - ] (u4427024)

A translucent vein of rich cerulean glaes runs evenly down the central length of the bridge as it arcs over the dizzying chasm, chased by inlaid gold. Only the blazing chandeliers above permit any estimation of distance from the high, worked stone ceiling of the cavern. Hoarbeam rails flank the bridge to keep unwary travelers from the cavernous depths to either side.

[Crystallhall, Grand Dais - ] (u4427025)

The great dais at the center of the cavern is a sparkling hexagonal confection of icy blue glaes. A constellation of golden flecks winks from within the depths of the stone. Four bridges arc away from the platform in each of the cardinal directions, anchoring it to crescent-shaped galleries arcing along the walls of the great cavern. Tall steps climb toward a crystalline glaes throne at the center of the expansive platform. Its shadow stretches over a quintet of newer seats cut from the same crystal.

Sammoon says, "Ders da chair."

The dog opens its mouth wide in an extended yawn.

>look throne

The throne is badly damaged, but its superlative craftsmanship is still evident despite the cracks and chips marring its beauty. A giant would look small atop the huge seat.

Monza is no longer protected by the shimmering field of energy.

Monza appears somehow different.

Yairra asks, "Not enough glaes to fix the cracks?"

Talliver thoughtfully asks, "What are these?"

Monza sits down next to a crystalline glaes throne.

Salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smoke curls up from the cigar in Aerocus's hand.

Monza pouts.

Fluster joins Vrigge's group.

Your spirit is bolstered by a great sense of faith and conviction.

You feel more secure basking in the glow of divine protection.

Yairra says, "Heavy is the burden of the one who sits on that throne."

The dull golden nimbus fades from around Yairra.

Aerocus's cigar begins to smoke badly. Ash build-up!

Vrigge says, "We replaced much of the old crystal with the new glaes you purchased."

Monza agrees with Yairra.

Aerocus taps his cigar, knocking a clump of ashes to the ground.

Sorlu glances at Yairra.

Aerocus rolls his slender tan cigar between his thumb and index finger for a moment before puffing contentedly, sending salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smoke into the air.

Vrigge says, "But we could not bring ourselves to see it go unused."

Aerocus purses his lips and blows out a stream of salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smelling smoke.

Sammoon says, "Glaes worked well."

Sammoon nods.

You rub a pale blue seat of crystalline glaes.

Talliver asks, speaking to Vrigge, "Why five?"

Dendum nods.

Tiny fissures in the fire wyrdling's skin briefly glow a deep red-orange.

Hanging on securely with three paws, the sewer rat on Aerocus's shoulder licks its fourth paw and spends several seconds carefully smoothing out the fur covering its lower back and one leg.

The acorn amulet hanging from Perigourd's neck suddenly flares a bright shade of green.

Yairra agrees with Vrigge.

Sorlu nods at Vrigge.

The fire wyrdling blinks.

You gaze with interest at a crystalline glaes throne.

Fluster takes a deep breath and closes his eyes for a moment. A faint aura flickers around him.

Perigourd ponders.

Monza's brass ring pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a shining brass earring affixed with an emerald remains.

Sorlu says, speaking to Vrigge, "I think it strikes a powerful message. One of both remembrance, and hope for the future."

Vrigge says, "While we are here..."

Sammoon turns to face Vrigge.

Lithyia raises an eyebrow in Vrigge's direction.

A pale white aura dances across Falvicar's night black platemail.

The palm rat sidles closer to Perigourd, eyeing him with the expectant look of a creature accustomed to handouts.

Salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smoke curls up from the cigar in Aerocus's hand.

Rysul put a bluish white rolaren kris with faceted ivory grip in her leather harness.

Rysul forages briefly and manages to find a white hook mushroom!

Sorlu peers quizzically at Vrigge.

Vrigge removes a spiraled white rod capped with a carved crow's head from in her wolf fur greatcloak.

Lithyia says, "Oh."

The emerald sprite flying above Dendum's shoulder nestles in against his neck before flying away.

Yairra rubs her chin thoughtfully.

Jastalyn smiles.

Lithyia says, "How interesting."

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Talliver blinks.

Jastalyn grins.

The black rat on Lilanna's shoulder makes a sudden flying leap, apparently trying to gain access to the top of her head. Muttering under her breath, she manages to herd the recalcitrant rodent back to her shoulder.

Lithyia beams happily at Talliver!

Randsford squints.

Anyauma smiles.

Anyauma flutters her wings at Talliver.

Randsford nods grimly at Roelon.

Talliver says, "Utterly undamaged, after all that it has been through."

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Perigourd scratches at his beard.

The dog cocks its head to one side and raises its muzzle up into the air, sniffing anxiously. After a moment, the fur of its ruff bristles, and it begins to growl at the shadows.

Aerocus glances at Rysul.

Sorlu says, speaking to Talliver, "A small miracle."

Lithyia says, "A good omen."

Sorlu nods.

The dog opens its mouth wide in an extended yawn.

Lithyia smiles.

A thin stream of blue-grey smoke streams from the cigar in Aerocus's hand, drifting upward in a loose coil.

Lithyia giggles.

Rysul says, "Random mushrooms are the best kind."

Aerocus says, "The giant lumenensice onces do not make you glow."

Lithyia grins at Talliver.

Monza giggles.

Sammoon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Rysul takes a bite of her white hook mushroom.

Aerocus says, speaking to Rysul, "This is a good place fer visions."

Pitching to the side, the compendium swoops around Monza before opening its numerous limbs wide to catch the wind and slow itself down. The compendium comes to a stop, balancing on the edge of its covers, its numerous limbs folded back along its spine. It waddles around using its front and back cover as stilted legs before hopping up into the air and giving a large, arching flap of its numerous limbs to bring itself back into flight.

Talliver says, speaking to Lithyia, "Of our nation. Not just Icemule Trace."

Several tentacles crawl up Aliashyrah's arm from her serpentine armbands, nuzzling into her flesh.

Lithyia says, "Same thing LIl."

Rysul giggles.

Lithyia says, "Same thing."

Lithyia winks at Lilanna.

Aerocus takes a long draw from his slender tan cigar.

Yairra says, "Maybe don't try to raise it or wave it around quite yet."

Aliashyrah smiles quietly to herself.

Sorlu says, "I'm not sure that is necessary, but if it makes everyone feel better."

Falvicar wraps his arms around you, hugging you warmly.

Lilanna looks over at Lithyia and shakes her head.

Lithyia beams happily at Vrigge!

Roelon nods at Vrigge.

Jehance nods at Yairra.

Vrigge's group just went east.

[Crystalhall, Dais Bridge - ] (u4427026)

Overhead, ancient chandeliers hold candles beyond count. Their flickering radiance awakens icy blue glints in a broad vein of razern in the cavern's ceiling, evidently preserved on purpose as the walls and ceiling were hewn by the hall's builders. The languid arc of a black stone bridge inlaid with blue glaes and pure gold joins the dais to the west with a wide gallery to the east.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Roelon begins to falter, then completely fades away.

Sammoon casually observes his surroundings.

Vrigge's group just went east.

[Crystalhall, East Gallery - ] (u4427027)

Above the some tall golvern-framed double doors in the eastern wall, a trapezoid of foreign stone stands out against the smooth-hewn native rock. Black as night and shot through with veins of silver, the decoration adorns the lintel over the doorway. Nearby, a carved Ossian pine totem has been erected, its wood painted with a riot of striking colors, and a bowl full of wintercrisp apples, iceblossoms, and resting poppies at its base.

Dendum seems a bit less imposing.

Jastalyn smiles.

Vendayan smiles.

Vrigge says, "You will like this, I think."

Vrigge's group just went north.

[Crystalhall, East Gallery - ] (u4427028)

The gallery comes to an end before a spectacular waterfall fountaining with a roar from a cleft in the northeastern wall. A polished stone chandelier hangs from hefty chains, its light turning the deluge's spray into a shifting curtain of prismatic particles. A black stone bench traced with spirals of gold has been erected near the hoarbeam rail to face the flow, providing an excellent vantage to observe nature's might.

Lithyia says, "This would be a lovely room for an event."

Aerocus's cigar begins to smoke badly. Ash build-up!

Rysul waves.

Rysul coughs.

Vrigge says, "The mountain has deep roots."

Sammoon nods.

Anyauma pets a green-eyed black cat, which nuzzles her hand softly.

The black cat licks his right paw, seemingly oblivious to the world around him.

Sammoon says, "Could be good."

Aerocus puffs slowly from his cigar.

Vrigge says, speaking to Perigourd, "But also, snowfall to feed an unending flow of water."

Sammoon says, "Mebbe not."

Aerocus puckers and blows a perfect circle of salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smoke into the air.

Aerocus slowly rolls his cigar between his thumb and index finger.

The dog opens its mouth wide in an extended yawn.

Rysul glances at Aerocus.

Perigourd nods at Vrigge.

Talliver runs his hand over the stone bench.

The black cat sits down, his tail curling to cover his front paws.

Rysul gives Aerocus a playful bite.

Talliver says, "A good place to think, I'd say."

A small forest green will-o'-wisp flits out from inside Perigourd's acorn amulet, hovering around his empty right hand and retreats back inside the amulet.

Lithyia nods at Talliver.

Randsford takes a deep breath and closes his eyes for a moment. A faint aura flickers around him.

Yairra glances at a black stone bench traced with spirals of gold.

Aemergin renews his songs.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moves in looking for its owner.

Vrigge's group just went through some tall golvern-framed double doors.

[Crystalhall, Sanctuary - ] (u4427032)

Cerulean pillars of glaes march evenly away from the doors, proceeding down the torchlit hallway. The light reveals the hazy forms of preserved flowers trapped in the depths of the glass. Mosaics along the walls depict preternaturally beautiful beings, each outlined in an aura of gemstone tesserae. Twin fountains fill the air with the musical burble of falling water. Their basins are tiled with jewels, and the water within is cold and clear.

Lithyia gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moves in looking for its owner.

Rysul asks, "Did i?"

Monza's brass ring pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a bright gold amulet accented with a diamond remains.

The fire wyrdling shimmers with heat, distorting the air about her into wavering refractions.

Missoni nods understandingly.

Vrigge nods at Rysul.

Fluster kneels down.

Sammoon grins.

Rysul says, "Its not entirely out of the realm of possibilities but I was aiming for someone else."

Falvicar grins at you.

Fluster scowls.

Rysul grins.

Aerocus smirks.

Sammoon says, "Like dem Burghal gnomes."

Sammoon nods at Talliver.

Roelon grins.

Vrigge ponders.

Dendum flatly says, "Burghal Fountains."

Yairra asks, speaking to Dendum, "Were you the ill behaved gnome?"

Lithyia leans softly against Wolfloner.

Leaning back, Aerocus squints his eyes against the curtain of smoke the cigar is forming around him.

Lithyia smiles at Wolfloner.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Randsford begins chuckling at Yairra!

Sorlu grins at Yairra.

Lithyia begins chuckling at Yairra!

Sorlu says, speaking to Yairra, "One of them, yes."

Sorlu chuckles.

Dendum says, "Burghal Giga Fountains....surely not likely to explode."

Vrigge says, "I did not allow it."

Anyauma smiles at Dendum.

Talliver quickly says, "Wise."

Aliashyrah appears to be trying hard not to grin.

A resplendent obsidian black raven hovers briefly near the ceiling.

Vrigge asks, speaking to Aliashyrah, "Should they have been?"

Fluster stands up.

Yairra says, "I'm surprised there's not a gnome stuck in the cracks of the throne right now."

Lithyia grins at Anyauma.

Vrigge's group just went east.

[Crystalhall, Sanctuary - ] (u4427033)

Atop a tiered dais of white rock stands the ruined remnant of a runestone. The monument resembles a spent candle, the stone melted and bubbled as if devoured by great heat. Silver streaks traveling through the black stone glint like moonlight off of a flowing river. Pale orbs of ancient crystal are set into the ceiling. Silvery light spills down with a brilliance that outshines the nearby torches. The radiance illuminates deep-graven carvings on the glossy stone walls.

Dendum says, ""They surely can not put in pockets any giga sized things."

Vendayan smiles at Sorlu.

Lithyia gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

The dog suddenly turns and focuses its eyes upon Wolfloner.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Vrigge, "It is too late to speculate on whether they should have been or not now."

Perigourd places his hands on his hips and hitches his thumbs under the sides of his leather belt, taking on a posture of unconcerned repose.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moves in looking for its owner.

Lithyia glances at a lazy wild midnight black dog.

Missoni snaps her fingers, and the dog moves to her side obediently.

Talliver says, speaking to Vrigge, "No restoration for this, then."

Pale red light ripples over Roelon's leather hiking boots.

Lithyia grins at Missoni.

Missoni wiggles her nose.

Vrigge shakes her head sadly.

Randsford takes a deep breath and closes his eyes for a moment. A faint aura flickers around him.

Fluster just opened an ora-threaded components satchel.

Fluster removes an eonake-chased chrismarium topped with lyshaelyn sparrows from in his components satchel.

Moving his right hand around idly, Aerocus leaves a wavy line of salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented scented smoke in the air.

Fluster lifts the lid of his eonake-chased chrismarium and pours a small quantity of chrism oil on the floor. The oil quickly evaporates.

Vrigge says, "We cannot work the stone. It is harder than metal."

Fluster put an eonake-chased chrismarium topped with lyshaelyn sparrows in his components satchel.

Fluster just closed an ora-threaded components satchel.

Lithyia points at some carvings.

Rysul smiles.

Dendum reminds, ""The light still shines here."

Yairra asks, "Can someone read that carving for me?"

Roelon furrows his brow.

A faceted sliver of grey shadowglass, which is set against Roelon's forehead, glitters brightly for a few moments.

Vrigge says, "The plinth we discovered, I had sent to your town."

A dark-maned pale golden tiger shifts restlessly, his paws flexing to reveal long sharp claws.

Missoni nods slowly.

Talliver says, speaking to Vrigge, "Thank you. It stands beneath the mule statue now."

Missoni reads, "If thou be friend, be welcome. If thou be foe, may this warning be the last your eyes see."

Yairra blinks at some carvings.

Dendum nods in agreement.

Lithyia says, "I like it."

Aliashyrah's serpentine armbands glow jade-tinted black as it shifts against her flesh.

Lithyia nods.

Yairra promises, speaking to some carvings, "I am a friend."

Salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smoke curls up from the cigar in Aerocus's hand.

As Aliashyrah rubs her serpentine armbands, a series of sanguine tentacles snake out, coiling between her fingers and caressing her palms.

Sorlu nods approvingly at Missoni.

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

A heartbroken aurora spirit dims noticeably as dark clouds spontaneously appear around it.

Aliashyrah whispers something to Yairra.

A pale blue light flickers across the surface of Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

Vrigge says, "The ancestors may have had ways of working this stone, but we do not."

Yairra grins slowly at Aliashyrah.

Monza's gold amulet pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a shining brass ring accented with a blue topaz remains.

Perigourd gazes thoughtfully at a melted silver-shot black runestone.

Dendum says, "Not all ancient things need to be tamed."

Dendum glances up.

You also see a pyrographed jadewood compendium moving around with its numerous limbs, a matted palm rat, the Aerocus disk, the Wolfloner disk, the Anyauma disk, the discordant Aemergin disk, the glaesine Yardie disk streaked with cobalt veins, the clam-shaped Lithyia disk, the web-draped Missoni disk, the Aliashyrah disk, the repousse copper Perigourd disk raised in leafy designs, the Rysul disk, the clam-shaped Monza disk, a smoky fire wyrdling, a massive snowy white tiger, a lazy wild midnight black dog, a resplendent obsidian black raven that is flying around, a green-eyed black cat, a bobtailed fishing cat, a dark-maned pale golden tiger and a heartbroken aurora spirit that is flying around.

Obvious exits: northeast, southeast, west

Dendum says, "The light still shines."

Sorlu looks thoughtfully at Dendum.

Anyauma smiles.

Aerocus takes a few short puffs from his slender tan cigar.

Vrigge says, "Had that block we sent you not already been carved into a plinth, I doubt there is much you would have been able to do with it."

Aerocus purses his lips and blows out a stream of salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented smelling smoke.

Talliver nods.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Sammoon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

The fire wyrdling blinks.

Jehance takes a deep breath and closes his eyes for a moment. A faint aura flickers around him.

The fire wyrdling chuckles.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Randsford, "You were worried about someone picking up a pebble and a whole plinth is now in the center of town."

Talliver says, "Your ancestors brought this stone across the face of the world."

Aliashyrah chuckles to herself.

Randsford nods grimly at Aliashyrah.

The fire wyrdling darts around the room.

Sorlu whispers something to Aliashyrah.

Sorlu appears to be trying hard not to grin.

Randsford says, speaking to Aliashyrah, "Time will hopefully prove me wrong."

Aliashyrah whispers something to Sorlu.

Holding the slender tan cigar poised between his fingers, Aerocus uses his thumb to tilt the tip of it toward himself, inspecting it for a moment.

Fluster takes a deep breath and closes his eyes for a moment. A faint aura flickers around him.

Perigourd reaches out and touches a melted silver-shot black runestone.

Aliashyrah nods slightly at Randsford.

The brilliant luminescence fades from around Sammoon.

Roelon grins.

Vrigge says, "Yes, we have spoken of what you saw in the distant north."

Lithyia raises an eyebrow in Vrigge's direction.

Sammoon shifts his weight.

The powerful look leaves Falvicar.

Lithyia just opened a beaded bauble bag.

Sammoon inclines his ear, listening intently.

Tiny fissures in the fire wyrdling's skin briefly glow a deep red-orange.

Lithyia gazes at her reflection in the pendant mirror.

Lithyia just closed a beaded bauble bag.

Sammoon becomes solid again.

The compendium folds its numerous limbs back and dives downward in a hunting dive. Just before the compendium smacks into the ground, it lifts its numerous limbs and swoops back up. It circles Monza's head several times before flapping just above her right shoulder.

Aerocus slowly rolls his cigar between his thumb and index finger.

A massive snowy white tiger emits a surprisingly deep growl!

The mirror images surrounding Aemergin undulate and grow stronger.

Aemergin renews his songs.

Missoni nods thoughtfully at Perigourd.

Vrigge says, "Isvindar believes the ancestors sought to forge a system of travel that could take them anywhere in the shortest of steps."

Aliashyrah asks, speaking curiously to Vrigge, "Has anything changed in the council fires regarding our good Mayor since the cleansing of this hall? Or is that a better question to ask Isvindar?"

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Vrigge says, "It is too much for my mind."

Missoni says, "Ah, like walking the planes."

Sammoon asks, "Like da chronomages?"

Perigourd glances warily at Missoni.

Curls of cigar smoke linger about Aerocus in a salt-rimed lime and tequila-scented scented haze.

Sammoon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Perigourd says, "It does sound like travel through the valences.."

Sammoon says, speaking to Missoni, "Er dat."

Missoni smiles.

Talliver says, speaking to Missoni, "I've only used one of the runestones. It was certainly an experience."

Vendayan nods.

Aerocus snuffs his slender tan cigar.

The air about Aliashyrah shimmers momentarily before the evanescent shield surrounding her collapses.

Lithyia just opened a soft knitted orchid-motif shadowy ebon pashmina wrap.

Aerocus put a green-banded slender tan cigar in his damask cloak.

Perigourd raises an eyebrow in Talliver's direction.

Fiery hues dance over the surface of Roelon's leather hiking boots.

Lithyia just closed a soft knitted orchid-motif shadowy ebon pashmina wrap.

Missoni asks, speaking curiously to Talliver, "What did you use it for?"

Anyauma smiles.

Dendum asks, "Hrmm...this rainbow road?"

Hanging on securely with three paws, the tartan-furred dormouse on Roelon's shoulder licks its fourth paw and spends several seconds carefully smoothing out the fur covering its lower back and one leg.

Fluster just opened an elegant black silk gem pouch.

Fluster just closed an elegant black silk gem pouch.

Dendum glances up.

Randsford takes a deep breath and closes his eyes for a moment. A faint aura flickers around him.

Dendum glances at a melted silver-shot black runestone.

Aerocus extends a hand towards the palm rat and it snaps at him with its sharp yellow teeth, squeaking angrily.

Aliashyrah guesses, speaking to Missoni, "Travel to the Hinterwilds perhaps?"

Talliver says, "In the Hinterwilds. Touching one takes you to a place where a step can carry you miles away."

Fluster just opened an elegant black silk gem pouch.

Aerocus pats the sewer rat on the head, the rodent submitting to the condescending gesture with an irritated hiss.

Fluster removes a shard of dragonmist crystal from in his black silk gem pouch.

Fluster just closed an elegant black silk gem pouch.

Missoni nods understandingly.

Yairra says, "That sounds convenient."

Missoni muses, "I wonder where this one was meant to take one."

Talliver says, "I've heard from the crew of the Firebird that there is an island near Solhaven with one such runestone."

Monza's brass ring pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a bright gold amulet accented with a diamond remains.

The dog suddenly turns and focuses its eyes upon Wolfloner.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Perigourd frowns at Talliver.

Perigourd asks, speaking to Talliver, "Wildwood Isle?"

Missoni glances appraisingly at Talliver.

Sammoon says, "Hmm."

Lithyia glances at a lazy wild midnight black dog.

Dendum says, speaking to Missoni, ""The tablet speaks of breaking the rainbow road....perhaps it went back home."

Talliver says, "Just a touch, and one stands not a mile from Wehnimer's Landing."

Sammoon says, "New krolvin home."

Missoni nods thoughtfully.

Aliashyrah says, "That seems convenient."

Sorlu rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Talliver says, "Convenient... and dangerous."

An icy gust of air blows in from Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

Aliashyrah agrees with Talliver.

Yairra says, speaking to Aliashyrah, "Save me all the walkin' in these boots, for sure."

Frowning to himself, Perigourd runs a finger across the surface of his belt as he seems to fall into unhappy thoughts, if his expression is any indication.

Dendum says, "Anything can walk a path once opened."

Fluster just opened an elegant black silk gem pouch.

Fluster put a shard of dragonmist crystal in his black silk gem pouch.

Sorlu asks, "Are there limitations to how many can travel through this method at once?"

Fluster just closed an elegant black silk gem pouch.

Talliver says, "There is a broken runestone in the Hinterwilds."

Fluster tries to tinker with a melted silver-shot black runestone.

Perigourd nods slowly.

Perigourd says, "That one I've seen."

Aerocus reaches out and touches a melted silver-shot black runestone.

Sammoon says, "I think i remember seein that."

Sammoon nods.

Aerocus squints at a melted silver-shot black runestone.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Sorlu, "An insightful question, Councillor."

Talliver says, "The path leading to it can cause grievous harm, or so Tribia tells me."

A faint white aura flickers around Falvicar.

Lithyia says, "I'll avoid that, thanks."

The black cat meows.

Missoni nods thoughtfully.

Talliver says, "One of the folk of Cold River stepped through it and his eyes were turned inside out."

Randsford nods in agreement at Roelon.

Lithyia nods to the black cat.

Lithyia pets a green-eyed black cat, which nuzzles her hand softly.

The black cat licks his left paw, seemingly oblivious to the world around him.

Monza says, "The storys this place will tell."

Sorlu glances over at Talliver and winces.

Jehance cringes.

Fluster says, "Perfect time for self reflection."

Dendum says, speaking to Vrigge, ""The ancient ancestors did amazing things.....wonderous and terrible and amazing."

Missoni says, "That sounds uncomfortable."

Sorlu nods.

The dog twists its neck to raise one of its ears up to one side and begins sniffing furiously while staring vacantly ahead.

The black rat on Lilanna's shoulder makes a sudden flying leap, apparently trying to gain access to the top of her head. Muttering under her breath, she manages to herd the recalcitrant rodent back to her shoulder.

(Jehance tries hard not to grin.)

Perigourd grunts.

Lithyia says, "Wait..."

Sorlu whispers something to Aliashyrah.

Lithyia asks, "What?"

Lithyia gawks at Talliver.

Sammoon says, "Sometimes all at once."

The mirror images surrounding Lilanna undulate and grow stronger.

Lilanna renews her songs.

Sammoon nods.

Missoni lightly says, "I think I will continue to draw my own circles."

Talliver says, speaking to a melted silver-shot black runestone, "I don't suspect anyone will come through this one, and if they do..."

You furrow up your face and wince.

Talliver says, "...well, may the gods have pity on what's left."

Sammoon grins.

Sorlu nods at Talliver.

Roelon glances at a melted silver-shot black runestone and rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Vrigge says, "It shames me that you all know more of our history than we do."

Vrigge makes a sour face.

Anyauma flutters her wings at Vrigge.

Lithyia says, "You dont know, what you dont know..."

Randsford says, speaking to Vrigge, "Different parts of history I wager."

Lithyia shrugs.

Perigourd nods in agreement at Randsford.

Missoni asks, speaking curiously to Vrigge, "Do your people record such history?"

Vrigge looks slightly mollified.

You quietly say, "This is all new to me."

(Jehance hardly knows anything.)

Vrigge says, speaking to Randsford, "Perhaps."

Sorlu leans leisurely on his Nalfein-styled cane, a thoughtful expression upon his face.

The fire wyrdling crouches down low, scanning the room with her dimly glowing eyes.

Vrigge says, speaking to Missoni, "We tell tales, but not of magic rocks."

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Vrigge, "For too long the giants have lived fractured, and must was lost. Now there is a renuiting and a new path to walk and history to forge."

Missoni nods understandingly at Vrigge.

Vrigge's group just went northeast.

[Crystalhall, Sanctuary - ] (u4427034)

The hallway comes to the end in a curved niche featuring a sprawling mural, the naturally rich colors of the pigments augmented by gemstone dust and gilt. Within the image, a majestic woman with troubled features and golden eyes holds a pair of tablets aloft, one dark and one light. Nacreous bands of metal cavort across the walls and frame the murals, seeming to glow faintly with their own inner light.

A matted palm rat scurries into the room.

Perigourd gazes with interest at a sprawling mural.

Dendum says, speaking to Vrigge, "The path was opened recently, perhaps moving forward there are new things for all to learn."

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Vrigge says, "This, too, is one of the ancestors."

Vrigge points at a sprawling mural.

Lithyia gazes with interest at a sprawling mural.

You gaze with interest at a sprawling mural.

>look mural

The mural depicts a woman with benevolent golden eyes as she holds a pair of tablets aloft, one dark and one pale. Her features are troubled. Beyond stands a vast ziggurat of ruddy stone, its peak breaching out of snow-clad woods.

Missoni adopts an agreeable expression.

Randsford says, "More tablets."

Vendayan summons a torrent of elemental mana and releases upon himself a flurry of abjurations.

Your form blurs.

A massive snowy white tiger blurs before your eyes.

A lazy wild midnight black dog blurs before your eyes.

A resplendent obsidian black raven blurs before your eyes.

A bobtailed fishing cat blurs before your eyes.

Randsford shakes his head.

Sorlu nods slowly to a sprawling mural.

Monza giggles.

The black cat pads off.

Aliashyrah asks, speaking to Sorlu, "I was not fortunate enough to see the tablets myself. Do those look like the ones you have spoken to me of?"

A rosy-nosed frost white ermine clambers out from Jastalyn's rose paeline jacket and climbs its way back up to her shoulder, looking quite pleased with itself.

Roelon glances at a sprawling mural.

Monza's gold amulet pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a bright silver bracelet crested with an emerald remains.

Lilanna's sentient potato hums an epic melody, filled with complexities!

A heartbroken aurora spirit fades into ethereal form and wafts away.

Sorlu runs his fingers over the surface of his seed charm and a sad smile spreads across his face.

Roelon slowly empties his lungs.

Golden energy spirals up Monza's wrists and condenses into thrice-wrapped coils as she begins an incantation. When the final word falls from her lips, the rings abruptly shatter into shimmering shards of mana.

Monza gestures.

A calico cat pads into the room and circles Monza's feet a few times before stopping at her side.

The fire wyrdling shimmers with heat, distorting the air about her into wavering refractions.

Vrigge says, speaking to Perigourd, "No. But I know she is of our blood as surely as I know myself."

Monza pouts.

Sorlu nods at Aliashyrah.

The calico cat pads off.

Anyauma smiles at Vrigge.

Vendayan just went southwest.

Talliver says, "It makes sense that these lands would have ties to the Hinterwilds."

The mirror images surrounding Aemergin undulate and grow stronger.

Aemergin renews his songs.

Vendayan just arrived.

You quietly say, "She looks troubled. she must have carred a great burden."

Rysul says, "Okay."

Sammoon says, "True."

Perigourd nods at Talliver.

Vendayan joins Vrigge's group.

You quietly say, "Carried too."

Talliver says, "If the gigas--or whatever you'd like to call your shared ancestors--came south, they would have come through these lands."

You slowly and deliberately empty your filled lungs.

A pale blue light flickers across the surface of Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

Randsford nods slowly to you.

A halo of flame flares to life about the fire wyrdling, swirling in a widening spiral about her small form before dispersing into the air.

The ethereal pink diamond on Jastalyn's forehead dims, then suddenly brightens in a luminous plume of tiny silver and rose pink sparks that radiate out from her eyes in a feather-like pattern.

Vendayan suddenly appears less powerful.

A faint white aura flickers around Falvicar.

Talliver says, "It makes me wonder if there are more gigas strongholds like this one, buried beneath forgotten earth."

The fire wyrdling blinks.

Aliashyrah gazes with interest at Talliver.

Sorlu looks thoughtfully at Talliver.

Wolfloner glances at Talliver.

Rysul looks over at Monza and shakes her head.

Missoni says, "Surely there must be."

Jehance ponders.

Aliashyrah says, "And interesting thought, Mayor."

Monza says, "I smells troule comin."

Monza sniffs.

Vrigge confidently says, "There are no strongholds like this one. Crystalhall is the greatest that can be."

Sammoon says, "Ah."

Wolfloner nods at Aliashyrah.

Randsford says, speaking to Talliver, "Almost certain of it, who knows what is burried under all this snow."

Lithyia nods at Vrigge.

Randsford shrugs at Talliver.

Monza grins happily.

Talliver gives a mild smile.

Talliver nods at Randsford.

Anyauma flutters her wings, stirring the air slightly.

Sammoon nods.

Sammoon nods.

Talliver says, speaking to Perigourd, "It is truly an era of exploration."

The tingling sensation and sense of security leaves Lilanna.

Sorlu says, "That might be worth us looking into. There is no telling what we might find."

Aliashyrah says, speaking placatingly to Vrigge, "None as great as this, surely not, but perhaps muted versions of such places."

Vrigge's group just went southwest.

[Crystalhall, Sanctuary - ] (u4427033)

Atop a tiered dais of white rock stands the ruined remnant of a runestone. The monument resembles a spent candle, the stone melted and bubbled as if devoured by great heat. Silver streaks traveling through the black stone glint like moonlight off of a flowing river. Pale orbs of ancient crystal are set into the ceiling. Silvery light spills down with a brilliance that outshines the nearby torches. The radiance illuminates deep-graven carvings on the glossy stone walls.

Vrigge's group just went southeast.

[Crystalhall, Sanctuary - ] (u4427035)

A rounded niche at the end of the hallway features a mural of monumental size that depicts a chaotic battle. Draconic figures clash with vile beings of glittering shadow, their war sprawling across a burning sky. The stones of the near wall are newer than their neighbors, their edges not yet smoothed by the passage of centuries.

Also here: Conquerer of Reim Anyauma, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Jehance, Sammoon, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Fisher Roelon, Aemergin, Chronicler Falvicar, Plantsman Dendum, Mayor Talliver, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Monza, Aerocus, Rysul, Lord Randsford, Lord Fluster, Lord Sorlu, Vendayan, Vrigge

The dog opens its mouth wide in an extended yawn.

Randsford glances at Yairra.

Randsford points at Roelon.

Vendayan fidgets.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moves in looking for its owner.

Vrigge says, "This is a story I do know."

Yairra grins.

Vrigge points at a mural.

> look mural

Winged figures clash in a sky set aflame, the lands below clad in a cloak of tormented darkness. Some of the combatants are huge, draconic figures depicted in bold hues, gemstone dust lending their scales texture and sheen. Their foes are twisted, glittering hulks that have unity of neither form nor shape, twisted bodies bearing tentacles, wings, and eyes in maddening configurations.

Dendum remarks, speaking to Talliver, "There are things in the long snow that might take notice of something as large as a giant or giga that ignore a gnome or halfling or even a human."

Anyauma wrinkles her nose.

The fire wyrdling crouches down low, scanning the room with her dimly glowing eyes.

Missoni gazes with interest at Vrigge.

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Vrigge says, "The First War."

Dendum inclines his ear, listening intently.

Sammoon raises an eyebrow.

Yairra whispers something to Aliashyrah.

Jehance inclines his ear, listening intently.

Roelon furrows his brow.

Roelon glances at Randsford.

Aliashyrah grins at Yairra.

Perigourd says, speaking to Vrigge, "Possibly that of the Ur-daemon, by the look of it."

Vrigge says, in Giant, something you don't understand.

A matted palm rat yawns widely, revealing long yellowed incisors and a pale curving tongue. It completes its yawn with a long luxurious stretch, scanning the area with a languid disdain.

Vrigge says, "It is said among our storytellers that we did not even have a name for such a thing before that war."

The fire wyrdling shimmers with heat, distorting the air about her into wavering refractions.

The sewer rat on Aerocus's shoulder makes a sudden flying leap, apparently trying to gain access to the top of his head. Muttering under his breath, he manages to herd the recalcitrant rodent back to his shoulder.

Anyauma measuredly flutters her wings as she looks around curiously.

Licks of flame rise up from Roelon's leather hiking boots.

Missoni nods thoughtfully.

Xanlin cocks his head and examines the mural.

Perigourd scratches at his beard.

Lithyia giggles.

Anyauma grins at Lithyia.

Dendum glances up.

Aliashyrah smiles at Yairra.

Perigourd chuckles.

Dendum idly turns his hewn juniper crook in his hand, glowing russet spores drifting downward.

Missoni says, speaking to Perigourd, "Fascinating creatures."

Aliashyrah draws a hand across her serpentine armbands, a single tentacle follows it.

Perigourd says, speaking to Missoni, "Not how I'd put it."

Perigourd nods at Missoni.

A pyrographed jadewood compendium moving around with its numerous limbs finds an air current and begins to glide within it for a long moment, its delicate pages rippling in the breeze. As the gale fades, the compendium dips down before flapping its numerous limbs back to its previous height.

Missoni cheerfully says, "I know."

The chestnut amulet hanging from Jastalyn's neck glows twilight.

Perigourd gazes blankly at Missoni.

Talliver says, "Well. That was quite the tour."

Lilanna nods at Talliver.

Wolfloner nods at Talliver.

Yairra smiles quietly to herself.

Yairra glances around the room.

Sorlu grins at Yairra.

Aliashyrah begins chuckling at Yairra!

Vrigge says, "But there is still much to be done before we can join you in celebration."

A halo of flame flares to life about the fire wyrdling, swirling in a widening spiral about her small form before dispersing into the air.

Sorlu nods appreciatively at Vrigge.

Vrigge says, "And the hour is late."

Yairra says, "Dont make me point them out."

Lithyia exclaims, "Vrigge, please send Nootjaeg my regards!"

Missoni appreciatively says, "Thank you for showing us the Hall. It is wonderfully restored."

Rysul says, "Okay."

Lithyia says, "And tell him i have new foods for him to try."

Anyauma agrees with Missoni.

Rysul says, "I'll be what I'm not."

Lithyia grins at Vrigge.

Perigourd says, speaking to Vrigge, "Many thanks for the tour, and the sharing of your peoples history."

A faint white aura flickers around Falvicar.

Perigourd bows deeply at the waist, honoring Vrigge.

Sorlu agrees with Perigourd.

With a sudden flash of insight, you realize you now understand more of what you have experienced.....

A dark-maned pale golden tiger blinks impassively and lets out a raspy utterance of hunger.

Hanging on securely with three paws, the black rat on Lilanna's shoulder licks its fourth paw and spends several seconds carefully smoothing out the fur covering its lower back and one leg.

Talliver says, speaking to Vrigge, "And for this."

Talliver taps a spiraled white rod capped with a carved crow's head, which is in his right hand.

The dog opens its mouth wide in an extended yawn.

Rysul gazes heavenward.

Fluster braces himself against his staff. A protective crimson flame curls against him.

Aliashyrah says, speaking to Vrigge, "The care taken to preserve the history in this place while working to carve out something new was truly inspiring."

Roelon casually observes his surroundings.

Vrigge says, speaking to Talliver, "Perhaps we will have to come up with a different name for you."

A low chirping sound comes from within an iridescent quartz cricket box.

Tiny flames lick along the fire wyrdling's shoulders, dancing merrily before dying away.

Lilanna agrees with Aliashyrah.

Vendayan chuckles.

[uberbarv: ******** 32 EXP Gained this Pulse **(2023-11-01_20:20:55)]

Lithyia says, "Perhaps you can get married here to her Vend."

Dendum says, speaking to Aliashyrah, ""Proof one can overcome even the worst traits with practice."

Sammoon nods at Vendayan.

Rysul forages around briefly but doesn't seem to find anything useful.

Sammoon nods at Talliver.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Rysul forages briefly and manages to find a white hook mushroom!

Yairra says, In a botched imitation, "And sooo shapely."

Jastalyn leans back, trying to ignore the shuffling of a rosy-nosed frost white ermine as it creeps from one of her shoulders to the other, whacking her a few times in the chin with its fluffy tail.

Talliver says, "I'll feel better once there are at least some inhabitants."

Monza's gold bracelet pulses with energy. The pulsing fades and a bright brass ring affixed with an emerald remains.

Rysul sniffs at her white hook mushroom.

Lithyia nods at Talliver.

Rysul licks a white hook mushroom in her hand.

The dog cocks its head to one side and raises its muzzle up into the air, sniffing anxiously. After a moment, the fur of its ruff bristles, and it begins to growl at the shadows.

Anyauma smiles.

Monza nods.

Sammoon says, "I swear yer heartbeat echos."

Sammoon nods.

Rysul takes a bite of her white hook mushroom.

Sorlu nods in agreement at Perigourd.

Aemergin leans softly against Anyauma.

Missoni agrees with Perigourd.

Sammoon says, "Mebbe it was jess mine."

Talliver says, speaking to Perigourd, "I hope that fear is unjustified."

Pleased with yourself, eh?

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Falvicar wraps his arms around you, hugging you warmly.

Perigourd says, "As do I."

The forest green corona surrounding Perigourd's acorn amulet rotates around in a circle.

Rysul drops a white hook mushroom.

Roelon casually observes his surroundings.

Leaning gently against Falvicar, you close your eyes and sigh contentedly. Sensing your mood, Falvicar slips his arm around you.

[uberbarv: ******** 31 EXP Gained this Pulse **(2023-11-01_20:21:45)]

Dendum glances up.

Talliver says, "But it has been quiet tonight, at the very least."

A massive snowy white tiger glances at a tiny scrap of discarded food and bats the morsel about with half-hearted interest before turning away in search of other pursuits.

Randsford says, speaking to Talliver, "I'd feel more comfortable with some guards keeping an eye for anything lurking."

Monza picks up a white hook mushroom.

Randsford squints.

Talliver nods at Fluster.

Fluster gazes heavenward.

Monza peers quizzically at a bobtailed fishing cat.

A delicate silver filigree pattern swirls briefly within a rose-intaglio ethereal pink diamond set against Jastalyn's forehead.

Anyauma smiles.

The dog cocks its head to one side and raises its muzzle up into the air, sniffing anxiously. After a moment, the fur of its ruff bristles, and it begins to growl at the shadows.

Monza feeds a bobtailed fishing cat the last of her white hook mushroom.

Roelon deeply asks, "Ah guess we could try ah swift return aye?"

Randsford just left.

The warm glow fades from around Monza.

Monza's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around her arms.

Randsford just arrived.

Lithyia nods at Roelon.

Roelon adds Randsford to his group.

Dendum nods at Roelon.

Roelon nods.

Perigourd waggles his fingers mystically at Roelon. How nice.

Anyauma agrees with Aemergin.

Roelon playfully flips the folds of his black woolen kilt.

Talliver says, speaking to Roelon, "Will the power of Voln carry us that far, I wonder? We can hope."

Sammoon flaps his arms wildly.

You feel fully energetic again.

Roelon deeply says, "We kin try."

Monza starts jumping around like a twelve-year-old.

Fluster removes a silver-caged firestone from in his coal black boots.

Monza exclaims, "Voln!"

Perigourd says, "His reach is far."

The emerald sprite flying above Dendum's shoulder whispers something to him.

Perigourd chuckles.

Roelon deeply says, "And hope we don' end up in river's rest."

Fluster carefully rubs his firestone.

A dark shroud engulfs all viewable light, leaving you in a state of suspension. Within moments, you feel a sharp tug on your mind as your sight becomes clear again...

[Icemule Trace, Town Center - 2300] (u4042150)

A tranquil square dusted with snow sprawls beneath a sturdy mule statue standing placidly atop a tall plinth of silver-veined black stone. The brilliance of the stars refracts through the statue, casting prismatic glints over the townsfolk nearby. Some denizens, mostly halflings but with a scattering of other folk mixed in, chatter by a roaring bonfire, lazing on a smooth dark stone bench or stargazing on colorful cloaks spread out on the ground. Others mill around a burled pine message board standing close to a colorful silver-bound barrel. You also see the Balzi disk, a vine-carved cherrywood cart with some stuff on it and a woven bark wastebin.

Sorlu chuckles to himself.

Your surroundings blur into a white fog . . .

[Icemule Trace, Ice Garden - 3365] (u4043800)

Alpine flowerbeds ring this tucked-away courtyard, their bright colors a feast for the eyes in comparison to the white of all the snow that lies beyond the gate. Tamped snow paths keep footsteps soft in this small haven as travellers make their way to and from the chambers north of here. Centered in a bed of white edelweiss and aromatic purple-flowered calamintha is an ice fountain, its watery spray frozen in a sparkling plume. You also see a frost-covered glass box, a wrought iron gate, an iron-banded birchwood barrel and a blanket of snow.

[Temple Burrow, Oleani Way - 2304] (u4042007)

Chunks of broken ice litter the cobblestone street near its intersection with a snow-covered stone path. They glint like daggers in the frigid starlight. Northward looms the glacier, its bulk rising above the rooftops of dwellings, a vast blackness against the starry curtain of night. Vivid teal and murky green lacquer twines over the surface of a wrought iron gate, beyond which sprawls a splendid ice garden. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a Silvermule courier.

[Temple Burrow, Oleani Way - 2303] (u4042001)

Homes line the road, their doors painted in a riot of colors. The dwellings follow no set plan, ranging from stately pine lodges to round-doored burrows tucked into the sides of nearby hillocks. One grey stone manse is secured by a black wrought iron gate. The road is mostly quiet in the dark, though a scattering of travelers walk the road. A ladder leans against the side of a freshly painted house, empty buckets at its base. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Icemule Trace, North Road - 2301] (u4042022)

The crowd is thinned by the hour, swirling sluggishly past the entrance of an ornate stone edifice with stained glass windows, where a scattering of half-krolvin and giantkin loiter to await a merchant's arrival. Several mages in colorful robes, all of them wearing scarves and mufflers, make their way from the west, while a few priests in more muted cassocks shuffle south toward taverns after a day of prayers. Lamp posts proceed down the roadside in an alternating pattern, casting pools of honeyed light on the cobblestones. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

>look statue

Hewn from glacial ice, the towering statue of a stubborn mule stares down upon the town center with obstinate eyes. Ambient light suffuses the statue with a cold glow and collects in blue and green ribbons within its crystalline form. The mule's hooves are splayed and firmly planted as it resists being led. Safe in the statue's shadow is a town carved from ice and imbued with hints of living color, the streets of which proceed toward burrows carved into the sprawling glacier to the north.

Sammoon reaches up and gently rubs one of the mule statue's legs.

Monza nods at Aerocus.

The tartan-furred dormouse on Roelon's shoulder makes a sudden flying leap, apparently trying to gain access to the top of his head. Muttering under his breath, he manages to herd the recalcitrant rodent back to his shoulder.

Roelon rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Lithyia says, "Missoni..."

Sammoon grins at Aerocus.

Aerocus grins at Sammoon.

Wolfloner adjusts his shadarl aketon to cushion his movements.

[Icemule Trace, East Road - 2426] (u4042301)

A pair of town guards are stationed outside the archway leading into the town's bank. One halfling guard seems to be dozing on his stool, while the other keeps a close and wary eye on the foot traffic flowing past. The bank is a tall building, its clapboard exterior painted a bright wintry blue that complements its dark slate-shingled roof. Several krolvin sailors count their money nearby, using the top of an old oaken hogshead to stack coins familiar and strange. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

As it passes by a half-timbered pale grey stone guildhall, the straight march of the cobblestone road offers a view of snowy foothills beyond the town's walls. Over the heads of fur-clad merchants from Pinefar and robed sisters leading groups of fresh-faced initiates out of town, the snow-swept wilds are dotted with evergreens and dark rock. Glimpses of a pale stone abbey in the extreme distance are almost entirely lost to the cloud cover. To the south, the slate-shingled roof of Clovertooth Hall rises high into the sky. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and the Darcimer disk.

[Icemule Trace, East Road - 2451] (u4042303)

Adventurers thread through the crowd cluttering the eastbound road, ornate weapons and flamboyant attire standing out from the more common furs and wool worn by merchants and locals. Young halfling and human children run around near the street, tugging at travelers' coattails in an effort to hawk cheap gems. Wooden building sits amidst the chaos, its yard heaped with crates, barrels, and trunks, while a well-lit dark stone shop seems to have taken a more reserved approach, standing away from the busy throng. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Icemule Trace, East Road - 2452] (u4042304)

Tall brownstone rowhouses line both sides of the busy road, their round doors painted a wide variety of colors. A gnarled birch hunches over the southern edge of the road, its roots snaking beneath the cobblestones and its bark lending the breeze a pleasant bite. Beneath the tree, a scattering of bright green leaves litters the ground. The bent stalwart marks the property line of a small snow-covered cottage standing back from the thoroughfare. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Commerce Burrow, Dwarven Circle - 2456] (u4042309)

The windows of the town's jail look out over the road, the bars guarding them filigreed with silvery rime. Across the road from the jail, a dark-eyed halfling leans against the wall of a barrister's office and quietly observes the passerby. A rocky path winds toward the jailhouse's door, passing by a large boulder with a few crude etchings on its surface. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Commerce Burrow, Dwarven Circle - 2472] (u4042308)

Despite the hour, the occasional call of a peddler drifts over the slate-shingled rooftops of the shops to the south. Taking advantage of the relative quiet, an ancient halfling sits on a bench along the side of the road, his wizened features happy in the light of nearby street lights. He twirls a slender blue wand between his fingers while lecturing to a group of scraggly-looking familiars. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Hard-looking sylvankind and half-krolvin trappers, burdened with pelts and furs from the wilds beyond, trudge southeast toward the local furrier.

[Wayside Inn, Dining Room - 3619] (u3003)

This ramshackle hostel bears the signs of rough use by hard-bitten travellers and headstrong adventurers. Several blade-scarred tables and low stools are lined up against the walls, while the central area is dominated by a large firepit around which is a low platform covered with a few ratty bearskins. The clatter of clay tankards and the smell of humble victuals provide some small comfort to the steady stream of wayfarers who pause here to meet and greet one another.

Citizens, merchants and assorted dregs of society jostle against you before the great wooden gates of Wehnimer's Landing. Harried guards and militiamen try to keep the chaos to a minimum, but it is hard to keep track of those entering, let alone leaving, this large trading post. A dirt path encircling the wooden palisade of the town leads east and southwest. Nailed prominently to the wooden wall beside the gate is you really should read. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, the Wayside inn and some reinforced wooden gates.

[Wehnimer's, Exterior - 436] (u9012)

Clear grassland stretches far to the southwest, a futile lesson in the immensity of Elanith. To the northwest, the grassy plain gives way to a smattering of pines that dot the landscape. Immediately east of you looms the high wooden wall of the Landing which provides you with a sense of security against all the unknown things that may lurk in plain and forest alike. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a rolton.

Further south the grassy expanse turns hilly, eventually terminating in stark mountains that line the horizon. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a rolton and a wooden signpost.

Jehance draws a well-made golvern lance in the blessed name of the gods from his golden leather scabbard with a flash of bright light. A low rumble fills the air for a moment.

A pale blue light flickers across the surface of Roelon's ebon leather gloves.

Roelon deeply says, "Ah could."

Growing among the warm grasses are a few scattered trees.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southwest, with his group following closely.

[Lower Dragonsclaw, Grasslands - 449] (u9027)

You are wandering through the grasslands of Lower Dragonsclaw. This area is hilly, but not enough to justify the mountain which juts out from the ground to the east. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a rolton.

Obvious paths: northeast, east, south

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly south, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 452] (u15036)

You are standing at the northern edge of a hilly and deeply forested region known as the Upper Trollfang. A wide and well used trail cuts through the deep underbrush to the south and appears to be the only visible entrance to the forest. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a rolton and a path leading north.

Obvious paths: south

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly south, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 453] (u15001)

The trail winds along the bottom of a series of low hills. A wall of thick underbrush lines the trail, effectively preventing you from wandering far from the worn track. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, the Rysul disk, the clam-shaped Monza disk, the Aerocus disk, a bobtailed fishing cat and a dark-maned pale golden tiger.

Obvious paths: north, southeast, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 454] (u15002)

The scurrying of unseen creatures occassionally cause the snapping of a tiny twig and you oft times catch the glimpse of brown fur or black feather. The dense and low-lying flora of the area quickly conceal anything that is not directly on the path however and you are feeling a bit apprehensive about moving further. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: southeast, west, northwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 455] (u15003)

A high, steep hill lies directly to the south and the trail splits as it makes its way around. The wider, and obviously more used trail, runs off to the southwest while a smaller trail heads off to the southeast. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 456] (u15035)

Three large modwir trees stand in a north-south line and split the trail as it passes from west to east. The northeast branch runs up the side of a long winding ridge while the southeast branch disappears in the brush that grows along the base of the ridge. The two trails come together and form a wider trail that runs off to the northwest. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a small mound.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 463] (u17040)

You pass along a wide trail, overgrown on both sides with weeds and thorny bushes. Farther back from the trail are thick clumps of bushes and stands of modwir trees. The growth seems to thin out toward the southeast. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a hill troll and a splintered huge wooden sign with the words "Turn Orund Imps" hastily scrawled on it.

Obvious paths: southeast, northwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 464] (u17001)

This is the western end of a badly overgrown and neglected road. Small piles of paving stones can be seen nearby, but the large amount of weeds that cover them indicate to you that they have not been moved in quite some time. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Tenzal just arrived.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 465] (u17002)

The road disappears for a time beneath islands of thick grasses only to reappear as you move on. Though the road appears to get little use, a path parallels the road and appears to be used quite frequently. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and some studded leather.

Obvious paths: east, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 466] (u17003)

The road curves gently as it moves from the northeast to the west. Apparently the individuals responsible for the location of the road did not wish to disturb the stand of magnificent willow trees that grows to the east. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 467] (u17004)

This part of the road is not nearly as rough as the rest, but it makes for slow travelling nonetheless. You have been on worse roads, though right now you can't remember when. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a hill troll.

A hill troll just arrived!

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 473] (u17006)

A rotting wooden cart stands off to the side of the road, the thick grasses and lush moss nearly covering the once sturdy vehicle. Thick brambles line the sides of the road which thins to a narrow trail as it moves further east. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a spear and some studded leather.

Obvious paths: east, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 474] (u17014)

This shaded intersection marks the beginning, or end, of a wide cobbled road that heads off to the west. To the east, this road becomes a deeply rutted trail that dives through the thick underbrush and disappears. A smaller path leads up a hill to the northeast. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a spear, some studded leather, some studded leather, the rutted trail, the smaller path and a weatherbeaten sign.

Obvious paths: west

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly down the rutted trail, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1196] (u17101)

The trail grows even more rutted, if that's possible, as it curves from west to north. Scrubby bushes press in close on both sides. Dusty looking trees loom over the bushes, and the whole place looks like it could use a good rain. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, some full leather, an abandoned wagon and the rutted trail.

Obvious paths: north

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1197] (u17102)

The trail climbs higher as it turns northeast, approaching a range of rough hills covered with grey rocks and brown grass. Thistles poke up out of the grass in places, their puffy purple flowers surrounded by wicked spines. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Wolfloner summons a torrent of spiritual and elemental mana and releases upon himself a flurry of abjurations.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1198] (u17103)

A dead tree stands off to one side of the trail, its branches reaching up to the sky like the blackened fingers of a skeleton hand. No trees or bushes grow near it, as though the other plants shun whatever killed it. The soil around its roots is bare and dusty. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a chain hauberk, a war hammer, some full leather, a black-whorled ashen bone pillar and a crackling sickly-green fire.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1199] (u17104)

Modwir pines rustle in the wind, and bluejays swoop back and forth among them, belittling you and each other in rough, raucous voices. The main trail curves to the west and southeast, while a rougher trail heads up the side of the hill to the north. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: southeast, west

Randsford says, speaking to Yairra, "As long as his kilt stays in the right direction."

A great brown bear lumbers noisily into the area drooling hungrily!

Randsford nods slowly at Yairra.

Roelon's eyes suddenly flash with a deep sanguine glow.

Roelon playfully flips the folds of his black woolen kilt.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1200] (u17110)

The trail curves, following the contour of the large hill to the north. Part of the hill has slumped onto the trail, forcing you to detour around a jumble of grey boulders and dirt. You eye the top of the slope fearfully, and quicken your pace to pass swiftly by. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a mountain ogre and some full leather.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1201] (u17111)

The trail widens, running along the top of a sheer, rocky cliff. A few scraggly bushes cling to the side of the hill above the trail, a lone modwir towering over them like a shepherd tending his flock. A small brown chipwit flutters back and forth between the modwir and the ground, carrying grasses and fallen needles to line its nest. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a mountain ogre, a chain hauberk, a wooden shield, a chain hauberk, a wooden shield, a wooden shield and a rugged pass.

Obvious paths: northeast, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1202] (u17112)

A few scruffy bushes cling to the hillside here upslope of the trail. Downslope, to the southeast, you see only a few clumps of tough, brown grass clinging wherever a pocket of soil has collected on the rocky slope. Dirty white lichen grows in lacy patterns across the surface of the rocks, its delicacy contrasting with the dull, blunt stone. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a cave troll.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1203] (u17113)

A bush alongside the trail crackles softly in the breeze, and suddenly spits forth a small, sleek grass-colored bird that hoots in fright. Dry grasses rustle as a small predator slinks off, chittering angrily, doubtless complaining of his hunger. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: northeast, south

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1204] (u17114)

The hillside is steep here, not quite vertical but close. Dry, brownish grass covers the hillside both above and below the trail. The trail is only a few inches wide here, but with care you manage to keep from falling over the side. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a cave troll, a great brown bear and a war hammer.

Obvious paths: north, southwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1205] (u17115)

The trail curls around a steep, treeless hillside. Tough brown grasses, pierced by an occasional thistle, cover the ground. The trail to the south is only a few inches wide -- rain, wind and use have eroded it down to near non-existence. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and some full leather.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1206] (u17116)

The trail narrows here and the branches of the trees meet over your head, casting deep shadows all around. You brush against a pine tree and pick up a smear of gluey black sap down your arm. The sharp scent of the resin bites your nose and throat, and your attempts to clean the goop off only spreads it around. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a chain hauberk and a war hammer.

Obvious paths: north, south

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1207] (u17127)

The trail winds through the trees, lights and shadows dancing between the branches. To the north, your path is blocked by the trunk of a huge fallen modwir. Wicked looking black brambles climb over the trunk and wind through the branches, except for a patch right above the trail. The exposed surface of the bark has been worn smooth. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a fallen trunk.

Obvious paths: south

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly across a fallen trunk, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1208] (u17117)

An ancient modwir pine came crashing down across the trail here long ago, at least a century past if the size of the trees grown up around it are any indication. A clump of wicked looking black brambles has grown up across the fallen trunk, covering it completely except for a narrow patch directly above the trail. The rough bark of the tree has been worn smooth where it's not covered with thorns. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a great brown bear, a great brown bear, a chain hauberk, a war hammer and a fallen trunk.

Obvious paths: northwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northwest, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang - 1209] (u17118)

Gaps in the trees allow the prevailing winds to blow briskly through this area, carrying with them a sound that can best be described as a frenzied drumbeat. If it is indeed the sound of a drum, the player is obviously agitated. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, some full leather and a gap in the trees.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang, Foothills - 2578] (u35001)

Your legs ache as you negotiate the steep path, choosing your footing carefully in the darkness. The trail winds around rocks and chasms and clumps of modwirs, the ground spongy with fallen needles. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: southwest, up

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly up, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang, Foothills - 2577] (u35002)

From the top of this hill, you can barely make out the peak of the Glatoph, tallest and easternmost of the dragon's fangs in this range of mountains. The dark masses of the rest of the Trollfang range blot out the stars toward the western and southern horizons. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: north, down

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang, Foothills - 2576] (u35003)

You're in a shallow depression between the hill to the south and the higher slope to the north. A sheer cliff to the east and a gorge to the west prevent travel in those directions. The soft grass underfoot might make this a nice place to rest for a while if it weren't for the occasional sounds of large nocturnal scavengers going about their business. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a stump.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly up, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang, Foothills - 2575] (u35004)

A lone modwir stands on this bare slope, its gnarled branches swept bare by the winds that whistle down from the mountains. You feel dwarfed by the huge tree as you climb past it. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a chain hauberk, a wooden shield and a war hammer.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly up, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang, Glatoph - 2574] (u35005)

Two side paths branch off of the main trail here, running east and west around the mountain. The north-south path is steeper, but is wider and more deeply worn even so. A cold wind blows in from the east, and you see signs of snow glimmering in the moonlight on the eastern slopes. The western face seems a bit warmer -- the deeper shadows in that direction might be grass. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang, Glatoph - 2573] (u35026)

The chill wind whips across the face of the mountain, scouring away what little soil is left and leaving bare rock. A pair of stunted thorn bushes, their spikes silvered by moonlight, and some clingy greyish moss are the only signs of life that you see. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Upper Trollfang, Glatoph - 2572] (u35027)

A layer of frost covers everything, making the rocks you can see in the faint light slick and treacherous. A lonely owl glides through the clear sky, searching vainly for prey. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 2571] (u35028)

This side of the mountain is covered with ice. The ice field is almost big enough to be called a glacier, except that the conditions are all wrong for a glacier. You suspect some sort of magic at work, and wonder at the wizard powerful enough to freeze half a mountain. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, some tattered white robes and a glacier.

Obvious paths: southwest

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly over to a glacier, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 2570] (u35029)

The cold blue-white radiance of the ice in the moonlight makes it difficult to judge distances. Frigid wind howls across the landscape, chilling you to the very marrow of your bones. Upslope and to the west, you see a dark spot that might be a cave. Even if it's not very deep, it might provide shelter for a while. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, some tattered white robes, a stale cinnamon tart and some tattered white robes.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 2569] (u35071)

The side of the mountain is blanketed with snow and ice, the blue-white gleam of it in the darkness toying with your sense of perspective. Everywhere you look is cold and lifeless and bare, as though the whole world has frozen. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a frost giant and some tattered white robes.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 2568] (u35068)

Ice crunches beneath your feet as you plod along the slope. Mounds and hills of snow have been carved into eerie shapes by the ever present wind, bulges and hollows glistening in the moonlight. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and some tattered white robes.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 2567] (u2153001)

Two large totems of snow-covered ice stand here, side by side, before a large snowy hill. They have been carved from the ice in shapes too intricate for the shrieking wind to have made and tower twenty feet into the air, as if marking this place, or posting a warning. You shiver, not entirely from the cold, at the implication that something that large might not want you here. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a handaxe, a reinforced shield and some tattered white robes.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 3617] (u2153003)

It is hard to walk in the screaming wind. Ice and snow cake your form, making you shiver. You can barely hear your footsteps over the wind and your own chattering teeth. You find yourself missing even the pallid sunlight this frigid place sees, as the moons provide little light and no heat at all. A large mound of snow to the northwest seems to provide some shelter. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a leather helm, some full leather, a reinforced shield, a war hammer, a leather helm, a war hammer, some full leather, some cuirbouilli leather and some tattered white robes.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 7853] (u2153005)

A large shadow looms out of the blizzard to the north, implying that a hill stands in that direction. It seems to funnel the wind, directing the icy blasts directly at you. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a handaxe, some cuirbouilli leather, a reinforced shield, a leather helm, some full leather and a war hammer.

Obvious paths: east, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 7854] (u2153008)

The path to the east is blocked by a huge spire of ice. Instead of lessening the wind here, it seems to pour it down onto you with arctic ferocity, howling and swirling. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Yairra says, speaking to Randsford, "Over his head? Sure."

Roelon casually observes his surroundings.

The dully illuminated mantle protecting Randsford begins to falter, then completely fades away.

The dim aura fades from around Randsford.

Randsford begins to breathe less deeply.

Lithyia laughs!

Roelon grins at Randsford.

Randsford just left.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 7855] (u2153010)

Blinking a few times to clear the frost from your eyelashes, you can see a huge ice spire to the east. It seems to be directing the wind right at you, making any loose cloth snap and flutter wildly. Keeping your balance is something of a challenge with the gale attempting to throw you over. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: northeast, southwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 3553] (u2153012)

The wind here is too fierce for you to see anything but flying snow. You can barely make out general paths to the west, southwest and southeast, and hope that going one of those directions will lead to a bit of shelter. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, an arctic titan, a leather helm, some full leather, a reinforced shield, a handaxe, some cuirbouilli leather and a reinforced shield.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 3552] (u2153014)

Hills of wind-sculpted snow block what little you might be able to see through the blizzard. Sliding slightly to the north each time you stand still, you conclude that the ground beneath the snow rises in the other direction. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and an arctic titan.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 2560] (u2153016)

For a moment you feel cut off from the world you know. All you can hear is the shrieking wind, sounding like an angry soul bemoaning its fate, and all you can see is blowing snow and shadow. With an effort you shake the feeling, although you cannot seem to warm the cold in your soul. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, a frost giant, a leather helm, a war hammer, some full leather, a handaxe, some cuirbouilli leather, a reinforced shield and some cuirbouilli leather.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 3559] (u2153018)

Funneled between a plateau to the south and a mountain range to the north, the wind here is vicious. Any bare skin is rapidly chafed and burned by the cold, turning a sickly shade of blue. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, an arctic titan, a handaxe, some cuirbouilli leather, a reinforced shield, a rusty spoon, a leather helm, a war hammer, some full leather, a war hammer and a leather helm.

Obvious paths: east, northwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier - 2558] (u2153020)

The way to the east ends in an icy abyss. Stinging snow and darkness make it impossible to see to the chasm's bottom, and you move carefully away from the edge, hoping the wind will not shove you over and to your death. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a deep chasm.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Mayor Talliver, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Lord Sorlu, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Jehance, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: southwest, west, northwest

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly through a deep chasm, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier Chasm - 2557] (u4044001)

The snow blowing from the cliffs above makes it hard to see the half-hidden trail. Heading upward, the trail widens as you reach the top of the glacier while the other end heads deeper into the chasm. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly down, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Glacier Chasm - 2556] (u4044002)

Deep cracks can be seen in the icy walls surrounding you. From this vantage point you can barely see the bottom of the chasm. The howling of the strong winds above creates an eerie feeling as you continue along the trail. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Glatoph, Glacier Chasm - 2555] (u4044003)

The icy walls sparkle as rays of moonlight from above reflect off of them, throwing a rainbow of colors down on you. Off in the distance you can hear the faint sounds of running water. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, an ice hound and an ice hound.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly down, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Chasm Floor - 2554] (u4044004)

Trickles of water flow down the icy walls and gather in a pool. Above you the chasm widens and a trail winds its way upward. Off to the north, the trail heads into a large icy passage. Flowing from the pool, a small stream runs down the ice and into the opening. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Glatoph, Icy Passage - 2553] (u4044005)

You are standing in the mouth of a large passage which heads off deep into the glacier. A small, ice cold stream trickles past you and grows in size as other, smaller streams feed into it. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Glatoph, Icy Passage - 2552] (u4044006)

Huge icicles are suspended from the ceiling and overhang the stream, dripping into its frigid waters. The dripping sounds echo throughout this passage sending shivers down your spine. Off to the south you see the passage widen. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Glatoph, Icy Passage - 2551] (u4044007)

The smooth ice walls of this passage narrow, forcing you to choose a path among the rocks in the stream. Stepping from rock to rock, you perilously continue on the trail hoping not to slip and fall into the freezing water. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly across an old stone bridge, with his group following closely.

[Snowy Plains, Bridge - 2538] (u4044020)

Animal tracks can be seen crossing in front of you in the fallen snow covering the trail. They seem to lead down to the river and disappear under the bridge. Looking north, snow covered plains stretch on as far as you can see. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and an old stone bridge.

Roelon grins.

Sorlu grins at Talliver.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southeast, with his group following closely.

[Snowy Plains, White Ice Lake - 2533] (u4044104)

It is bitterly cold and no shelter can be found as you continue to follow the trail along the shoreline of the enormous lake. It has been a long while since you could feel your feet and you wonder if this torturous trek will ever end. There is a small path leading off to the southwest, away from the main trail. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Snowy Plains, White Ice Lake - 2532] (u4044105)

There is nothing here but the blinding whiteness of the ice and snow--and the incessant wind. Only careful concentration keeps your plodding feet on the almost nonexistent trail. The prospect of straying out upon the frozen lake or into the barren wilderness strikes fear into many a soul! You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Fisher Roelon's group just climbed up a mammoth rockslide.

[Blue Glacier, Mountain Pass - 2523] (u4044114)

Staring at the grotesque, frozen foot of some poor soul protruding from beneath the rockslide tells you this mountain has been forsaken by the gods and is no fit place for man nor beast. You glance furtively upwards, ever fearful that the rocks above will tumble down upon you. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Blue Glacier, Mountain Pass - 2522] (u4044115)

All the climbing up and down over the icy rocks of this pass has exhausted you -- the bitter cold has taken its toll as well.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly northeast, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trail, Snowy Forest - 2498] (u4044218)

You find yourself just southwest of the town of Icemule Trace where the trail continues through the dark forest. A lumbering cart, filled with wood needed by the townspeople to heat their buildings, is being pulled northeast toward town. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

[Icemule Trace, Forest - 2497] (u4128014)

A solitary wooden signpost stands at the head of a road leading southwest. It marks the intersection with a smaller trail leading east and west. Straw has been scattered on the snowy road, helping you maintain your footing as you continue on your way. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and a black cat.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trace, Forest - 3176] (u4128015)

A dark green holly tree spreads its boughs low and wide, nearly hiding the path. Wary of the sharp points of its thick leaves, you carefully skirt around it. Someone less agile than you has left shreds of some sort of clothing in its branches. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Mayor Talliver, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Lord Sorlu, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Jehance, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trace, Forest - 3177] (u4128016)

The trail becomes narrower with branches jutting into it from all sides. It takes some skill to balance your steps without losing an eye to the sharp twigs that always seem to be in the wrong place. An icy path heads north into the woods and is clear of the treacherous branches. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and an icy path.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Mayor Talliver, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Lord Sorlu, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Jehance, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: east, west

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly up an icy path, with his group following closely.

[Snowflake Vale, Forest - 3195] (u4128018)

The icy path emerges from the darkness of the evergreen forest into a shallow valley of mixed conifers and deciduous trees. The valley floor is snow-covered, making the meandering trails highly visible. You also see a massive snowy white tiger, an icy path and a crooked wooden fence marking a wide bridle path.

Also here: Chronicler Falvicar, Mayor Talliver, Blade Yardie, Jastalyn, Lord Sorlu, Xanlin, Ambassador Lilanna, Pub Proprietor Lithyia, Wolfloner, Jehance, Lady Aliashyrah, Yairra, Bathcwyn Missoni, Perigourd, Lord Randsford, Fisher Roelon

Obvious paths: north, northwest

Fisher Roelon just slipped quietly through a crooked wooden fence marking a wide bridle path, with his group following closely.

[Snowflake Vale, Paddock - 30591] (u12005001)

A long, weathered fence made of alternating pine and birchwood encloses a particularly large meadow and separates it from the surrounding wilds. Snow has piled up in the four corners of this large paddock, while an oblong trail that has been shoveled nearly clean in the center, the exposed ground covered with hoof marks. Near the back of the lot stands a well-constructed barn illuminated by several oil lamps near its doors. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Roelon flags down a nearby urchin and exchanges a few words.

The urchin nods to Roelon and rapidly guides your group through a series of back alleys, side streets, and little-used shortcuts until you reach your destination in mere seconds.

[Icemule Trace, Town Center - 2300] (u4042150)

A tranquil square dusted with snow sprawls beneath a sturdy mule statue standing placidly atop a tall plinth of silver-veined black stone. The brilliance of the stars refracts through the statue, casting prismatic glints over the townsfolk nearby. Some denizens, mostly halflings but with a scattering of other folk mixed in, chatter by a roaring bonfire, lazing on a smooth dark stone bench or stargazing on colorful cloaks spread out on the ground. Others mill around a burled pine message board standing close to a colorful silver-bound barrel. You also see a gloomy taiga spirit that is flying around, the treasure chest-shaped Brute disk centered with a broken lock, the Balzi disk, a vine-carved cherrywood cart with some stuff on it and a woven bark wastebin.

Obvious paths: north, northeast, east, south, west

Belrog sings something in Guildspeak that you don't understand.

The blue starstone headband seems to respond to the magic of Belrog's song.

Roelon flails his arms about.

A lazy wild midnight black dog arrives.

Lithyia pants.

Lithyia pants.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trace, East Road - 2426] (u4042301)

A pair of town guards are stationed outside the archway leading into the town's bank. One halfling guard seems to be dozing on his stool, while the other keeps a close and wary eye on the foot traffic flowing past. The bank is a tall building, its clapboard exterior painted a bright wintry blue that complements its dark slate-shingled roof. Several krolvin sailors count their money nearby, using the top of an old oaken hogshead to stack coins familiar and strange.

A massive snowy white tiger saunters in.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trace, East Road - 2427] (u4042302)

As it passes by a half-timbered pale grey stone guildhall, the straight march of the cobblestone road offers a view of snowy foothills beyond the town's walls. Over the heads of fur-clad merchants from Pinefar and robed sisters leading groups of fresh-faced initiates out of town, the snow-swept wilds are dotted with evergreens and dark rock. Glimpses of a pale stone abbey in the extreme distance are almost entirely lost to the cloud cover. To the south, the slate-shingled roof of Clovertooth Hall rises high into the sky. You also see a massive snowy white tiger and the Darcimer disk.

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly east, with his group following closely.

[Icemule Trace, East Road - 2451] (u4042303)

Adventurers thread through the crowd cluttering the eastbound road, ornate weapons and flamboyant attire standing out from the more common furs and wool worn by merchants and locals. Young halfling and human children run around near the street, tugging at travelers' coattails in an effort to hawk cheap gems. Wooden building sits amidst the chaos, its yard heaped with crates, barrels, and trunks, while a well-lit dark stone shop seems to have taken a more reserved approach, standing away from the busy throng. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: east, south, west

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly south, with his group following closely.

[Commerce Burrow, Dwarven Circle - 2472] (u4042308)

Despite the hour, the occasional call of a peddler drifts over the slate-shingled rooftops of the shops to the south. Taking advantage of the relative quiet, an ancient halfling sits on a bench along the side of the road, his wizened features happy in the light of nearby street lights. He twirls a slender blue wand between his fingers while lecturing to a group of scraggly-looking familiars. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: north, east, southwest

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly southwest, with his group following closely.

[Commerce Burrow, Dwarven Circle - 2469] (u4042312)

Hard-looking sylvankind and half-krolvin trappers, burdened with pelts and furs from the wilds beyond, trudge southeast toward the local furrier. A raw timber cottage faces the street, the snow cleared from its front path. The trilling of a flute drifts from the cottage's doorway, gently punctuating the din of the bazaar to the east. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.

Obvious paths: north, northeast, east, southeast

Fisher Roelon just moved quietly north, with his group following closely.

[Commerce Burrow, Pioneer Court - ] (u4042327)

Stately houses with old stone facades line the street as it ends in a small cobblestone court. Their sprawling estates are dotted with pine trees, and in one yard, a garden full of colorful flowers thrives near the banks of a steaming hot spring. One manse at the northernmost edge of the circle has gates of pale holly inlaid with walnut, a path of flagstones beyond shaded by old pine trees festooned with bright garlands. You also see a massive snowy white tiger.
