Unique Places Pertaining to
Anyder Sea of Reeds | Already having suffered one delay too many, Sanjuro and I were forced once more to wait as Garlthik's riverboat was forced to hide from Theran patrols. I'm not even sure we're on the Serpent River anymore, as it seems we're sailing through a bamboo field more than we are through water. The sailors call this place "the Sea of Reeds", obvious but fitting. - From the journals of Briana (4 Doddul 1508) | |
Avernus | The Sea of Reeds gave way to some immense temple facility that not even Garlthik apparantly knew about. Sanjuro and I, while casually exploring the ruins, uncovered magics that best remain unspoken. Perhaps Maxwell the Curious Cat would enjoy this place. I do not. - From the journals of Briana (4 Doddul 1508) | |
The Blight | The elders charged them with a task. To the south of Bryhn, there was a valley tainted by horrors. At the far end was a giant tree that contained a rare fruit that is supposedly deadly. In order to be considered, they had to retrieve one of these fruits and return within three days. - From the journals of Gort (14 Mawag 1508) | |
Bryhn Steppes | However, Boy did speculate that the escape of the Bryhn soldiers at the ambush would probably cause Trollsbane to act quickly and more desperately. The remainder of the day's travel proved Boy right. From across the plains and steppes, plumes of smoke could be seen in almost every direction. - From the journals of Killian (7 Gahmil 1508) | |
Dragon's Breath Pass | Early the next morning, they came upon a valley in the mountains. In the center of the valley was a stone carved like a dragon's head. Water was flowing from the left eye of the dragon. The water flowed into a river going down another pass. - From the journals of Gort (28 Mawag 1508) | |
Lost City of Enphaelis | This morning was rather eventful. We made it to the ruins, and Maxwell decided to go exploring by himself, flying off with some new spell. If Mal had done the same, he would have been in trouble, but that is another matter. We got to talk to the dragon, who is bigger than a house. - From the journals of Garnel (21 Teayu 1508) | |
Gevin | In addition, we found our destination, a town called Gevin, occupied by the Denairastas forces allied with the hated House Ishkarat. They were, in fact, bullying a Scavian river barge as we arrived! - From the journals of Maxwell (21 Raquas 1508) | |
Kaer Forriam | As the sun rose bright, we made our way down the spiralling stair which led into blackness. Partway down, we heard a click, and threw ourselves backwards. Poor Blue, not swift enough, was stabbed in the ankle by a blade trap and sent plummeting down the shaft to land horribly at the bottom with a loud clang. - From the journals of Maxwell (15 Raquas 1508) | |
Kaer Labinou | For the months that he travelled with us, Maxwell the Annoying would talk with nostalgia and longing for what he called, 'A good old-fashioned Kaer Krawl.[sic]'...But now, standing near the mouth of Kaer Labinau, I can't seem to call up the feelings that Maxwell alluded to. - From the journals of Briana (21 Velton 1509) | |
Shis'r'tal | The people that lived here worshipped spirits like Ultros, and believed in what they called the Old Spirits, what we know as the Passions. They also created a way to travel between distant places, and that is where we are now, this white void. The three passions are trapped in here, and we need to free them. Shis'r'tal is the lock, and we are the ones to turn the keys. - From the journals of Garnel (25 Veltom 1509) | |
Viln | The tragic poem of Viln speaks of the citizens 'sacrificing their young' for the wards of protection. I have found this to be quite literally true. All around the outside of the wall are grotesque petrified children, protecting the city from Horror intrusion. - From the journals of Maxwell (4 Sollus 1508) | |
