Beginnings

The story of Rovvigen's life doesn't start with his birth, but rather his finding; the finding of Rovvigen. As the story goes, in Imaerasta in the year 5084, an elven water mage by the name of Caeliss rode forth from his tower in Wehnimer’s Landing with his dutiful page Mikalmas. Caeliss was on the trail of an ancient tome of ice spells and had recently seen clues indicating they might be found in the library of a rich merchant in Icemule. Caeliss and Mikalmas set forth on a bright winter’s day, comfortably shielded by warm furs and confident in their magics; fearing little by way of beast or man.

The journey was largely uneventful until they neared White Ice Lake when the smell of smoke alerted them to a nearby camp.

Considering the length of travel ahead, the pair decided to break for a rest, and left the trail in an effort to hail the nearby camp and perhaps gain permission to sit and rest, and to share in a hot meal.

However, their calls were met with silence and the smell of smoke continued to intensify, when Caeliss quickly suspected something amiss. Riding forth toward the camp, he readied a defensive spell and warned Mikalmas to be on guard. But as they neared and the camp was revealed, it was soon evident that they were past the point of risk, for the camp had been razed and no soul stirred. The two were met by ashes sifting through the cold winter air, and the sight of burnt goods and a broken wagon. Littering the campsite were the hacked and burned bodies of several travelers, many childlike in size, yet garbed in armor and adult wear. Caeliss realized this had been a Halfling troupe, most likely travelling from Icemule.

As Caeliss dismounted and began to explore the wreckage of the sacked camp, he heard a small sound. Tilting his head to the side he heard a faint cry and realized he was hearing a cry of distress. Quickly searching the area, he discovered a large basket, while covered in ash, had not been disturbed by whatever bandit or brigand had destroyed this small caravan. Tipping over the wicker dome they discovered a wee babe, covered in blankets wearing a locket engraved with the name "Aniket".

On Restday, Eoantos 13 from the Silverwood Meadow, The Trine; Great Lord Beloran the Woundtender (an Aelotoi of the Mrae'ni Clan) and Event Planner Rovvigen the Fortuneteller (a Paradis Halfling) are united by Gwalina (The Matchmaker) during a centuries old Halfling tradition of The Handfasting Ceremony.

Kelhaly grins.

Speaking ruefully to Panndoris, Gwalina says, "If I's was singles... I'd be flirtings with yous."

Gwalina recites:

"Nows, nows... Traditionally during the Trines, we's normallys have lots and lots of matches ready to be bounds."

As Cruxophim plays his tibia-bone flute, some black raven feathers suddenly flow out of the instrument, pulled into existence from the magic of his song.

The music lifts and swells, as Cruxophim's encouraging and heartening song fills your heart and mind.

Without a change in dynamics Telsas picks up the pace of the song, weaving a soft but playful theme reminiscent of the sound of a far-away horse running across the countryside.

Rovvigen turns an inquisitive ear toward Gwalina.

Cruxophim's music seems to lift your mood as his flute's tune moves in stately beauty.

Gwalina recites:

"We's also do not normallys have the traditionals ceremonies ifs fastededings outside of typicals racial boundaries."

Panndoris gawks at Gwalina.

You stick your tongue out at Beloran and let loose with a loud, "Thbtbtbtbt" from your lips!

Speaking gruffly to Dirvy, Darbo exclaims, "Sing!"

Gwalina enthuses, "Do its!"

Dirvy blushes a pink shade at Darbo.

Telsas quietly says, "One for Rovvigen."

Rolfard applauds Rovvigen.

Dirvy sings softly:

Telsas quietly says, "May years of happiness in darkness and in light for the pair of you."

A luminous white haze forms around Beloran and Rovvigen and grows in intensity until it is as bright as a star, periodically emitting golden sparks that float upward toward the night sky.

Rovvigen beams!

(Beloran squirms slightly and twists his right hand. He carefully wiggles his fingers and works his hand out of the cord, careful to preserve the knot.)

Darbo nods approvingly.

Sadiyah says, "May all the love you to share carry you from this life into the next for many lives to come."

Gwalina says, "If yous wants to pass its to me, I can put it in your cases."

(Rovvigen removes the cord slightly not to unwoven the cord.)

Placing her hands upon her hips, Gwalina performs a quick heel-to-toe dance that ends with two high hops to the left.

Ordim lifts his drinking horn in a toast and proclaim:

"May your toe hair never tangle!"

Beloran exclaims, "That was most informative, and deeply appreciated!"

Tales of First Loves This story is written by Zailon Britbane taken from the log from Tales of First Loves.

Tales of First Loves was our final installment in the storytelling series out of six. It was presented in Koaratos of 5117 Written by: Sentinel Advisor Zailon Britbane Edited by: Elder Seer Rovvigen Aniket

Sentinel Zailon looks distracted, before snapping out of his daydream, turning to face you, suddenly aware of your presence.

Zailon says, “Sorry, right. I grew distracted. Well, I met Elder Sentinel Advisor Dirvy years back, you see, I stumbled into Icemule, wounded and without any herbs left.”

Zailon says, “Right, nevermind. That isn’t what you’re asking about, is it? Another time, I suppose. Tales of First Loves, yes? I remember it well, a very important day for me. Let me paint the story for you.”

Zailon makes a gesture for you to sit down, as he recants the story.

You follow the group down a pathway, ending in the courtyard of the famous Silvergate Inn and take note of a small gathering already in progress. You make your way towards the back, so as not to disrupt the stories in progress.

You note Sentinel Zailon Scampering back from a nearby cart, clutching a slice of watermelon, with a mischievous grin on his face. You decide not to point it out, after all, it’s only watermelon.

Turning from your distraction you note a couple holding hands, coming down the walkway, the leaves swirling behind them with a sense of playfulness, almost escorting the happy couple down into the Inn.

Prophet Rovvigen steps up and begins his announcement, “Today, we host Tales of First loves. We will be discussing the people we’ve met along our long journey, and remembering fondly those who stand out among the rest. “

Sentinel Zailon steps up in front of the gathering and looks toward Dirvy, clearly a man besotted, he begins, “We met some time ago, back in Icemule. I remember I was headed for the rift.”

“Much to my surprise, the town had acquired an Empath; unheard of for quite some time.”

Zailon smiles at Dirvy, “It was a relief to know I could come back from the rift and find healing again, rather than seeking out every herb in existence. And through time, I found not only a healer, but a friend. For a number of years, that’s all there was to it. I was too blind to see what was so plain to everyone else.”

Zailon continues, “After years of indecision, or simple foolishness, I woke up enough to see what was before me, and thankfully, she didn’t turn me away. “

Zailon turns to Dirvy and says, “Thank you for coming on this journey with me.”

Dirvy responds, “How could I have ever said no to you?”

Zailon passes Dirvy a shimmering silk gift cloth.

Dirvy asks, “Shall I open this now?”

Zailon nods to Dirvy.

Dirvy opened the gift cloth and within she found Zailon’s onyx neckchain bearing a glowing pentagram.”

Dirvy responds, “But this is your favorite!”

​And without hesitation Zailon replied, “You are my favorite. I wanted you to have something of importance from me.”

Dirvy softly replied, “I have you, what could be more important?”

And with that Dirvy and Zailon kissed, sealing the event, a public acknowledgement of what was to come. Stories were shared, and hearts were touched and this led us down the path to a wedding on a grand scale, but that is a story for another day.

Prophet Rovvigen stepped before the crowd, prepared to tell his tale of love

Rovvigen says, “This is the story of how Beloran and I got married.”

Rovvigen begins his tale, “Beloran and I met a year and a half ago, in Wehnimer’s Landing. I noticed his vibrant green wings, causing him to stand out from the crowd. It was love at first sight. He gave me a tour of the landing, and we ended up at this beautiful little café.”

Rovvigen gazes outward, lost in memory, “That night be took me on a picnic amongst the stars and told me to make a wish. I made my wish and he asked me what I had wished for, and I could only reply, if I tell you, then it won’t come true.”

Smiling to himself, Rovvigen continues to address the crowd.

Rovvigen says, “That night, I had wished we would have a beautiful wedding, and as of last year we were married, holding two ceremonies to celebrate our nuptials. “

Rovvigen remembers, “Our first time was at the Trine Festival, we held a handfasting after the Halfling tradition, tying a cord about our wrists to show our eternal bond. Our second ceremony was held at the Ice Caverns. “

Zailon leans against Dirvy, listening to Rovvigen’s tale of love found. Nodding quietly to himself, you note that he has donned a rather ostentatious feathered hat and he is now walking with a cane. You begin wonder about his wardrobe choices and find that his story is winding down.

Zailon resumes his focus, “And that is the Tale of First Loves. Dirvy and I couldn’t have gotten a proper start if not for Prophet Rovvigen. We owe him much for that day.”

Zailon nods in acknowledgement and gazes out, resuming his watch over the caravan as you proceed to your next destination.

Rovvigen's Most Prized Divination Tools

a translucent silver-hearted crystal
Finvale's Crystals
Ovoid in shape, the crystal is translucent with tiny bubbles trapped just beneath its surface, while at its heart a crystalline structure of silver spreads its branching arms outward in all directions. Rolling and flitting in sinuous patterns that at times ascends the metallic enigma, and at other times descends it, is a miasmic mist that undulates in and out of barely recognizable patterns. A simple chain has been attached to the device, its metal seemingly dull in comparison to the rest.

an ora-framed leather wolf mask
Scrying mask
Images of stars and willow leaves have been incised along the strips of pale grey ora that cover and shape the exterior of the wolf mask. The leather beneath is tanned to a fine, supple softness and dyed chocolate brown. Two disks, each half mistwood and half ebony, hang on a leather thong to rest just above the right eye. A black and silver sigil has been painted on the brow. A few bloodstains mar the bottom edge of the mask.
