Nightfall
Stephan was filled with wrenching emotions. “Oh Brother! ‘Tis good to see you. But I’m sorry we meet in such dire circumstance.” He embraced his mother and other kin, clearly delighted to be amongst them.
Maruc smiled warmly as he took Pyotr’s hand. “It is more than a pleasure to help honest folk, Pyotr. Your [...]

A Warm Sukiskyn Welcome
Miklos paused. He could down the five with a word. He did. With a defiant sweep of his hand, he released the last of his sleep incantations at the group to buy them time to get to the relative safety of the main buildings.
“At least they’ll be easier to shoot!” he cried as he hastily [...]

Go! Through The Gate!
“Go! Through the gate!” the dwarf called out to his companions as he grabbed up his dropped crossbow.
Stephan followed Feldard’s advice and, finding his footing on the bridge, lunged for the open gate.

At least I’ll not have to don my armour in a [...]

Flames at Dusk
Hasan saw the situation clearly. “Many men came from the north. Just one to the south, into the woods. That was a brave man. A dangerous one. I say we follow the one. It is his trail that will lead us deeper into this mystery.”
Miklos listened to Hasan’s assessment of the trail. “You are quite [...]

Into the Dymrak
Feldard looked to Hasan. “This trail could go on a while. If we are going to follow it to its source, we should gather the group together first.”
Maruc started out of his prayer at the shout of an oarsman next to him. There was movement from the trail. Squinting into the gloom of the forest [...]

Time For a Decision
At the dwarf’s rebuttal Maruc laughed with delight despite the macabre scene. “Take no offense. It is his way. We ourselves are turning aside from our journey to satisfy a yearning of his. These are dangerous lands…”
“A yearning!? Bah, speak not of what you know little of priest! A duty to family is not [...]

Well Met
Maruc cast his flail to one side and shrugged off his shield. He knelt down and checked over the bodies to see if any were still clinging onto life. What a sorry mess, he thought. There was something familiar about the tenacity of their attack. Like they were driven. Insane? Or close to it. Not [...]
