[Grassland Road, Meadow]
Before you lies the remains of a building, long reduced to jagged foundations of porous, moss-stained tufa.  Dark blades of weevil grass poke out of the rocky ground.  You hear a clattering sound somewhere within the ruined structure and a muffled oath.
You also see an incomplete structure of uneven blue crystal.

> look structure
Crystal spires and facets are in various stages of formation.  Some are fully developed and sharp-edged, while others are stubby and irregular with jagged edges and rough surfaces.  Veins in shades of blue pulse lightly, crystallizing and solidifying.  Thin strands extend from the main body, branching out like tendrils seeking connection points in the soil.  The base is uneven, with parts of the crystal still fusing to the ground, giving it an unsteady look.  The structure emits a faint, pulsating hum.

Upcoming Player Event: Mending the Wound

Date Summary Link

Sep 6, 2024
We have known for years that holes in the barrier of the Plane of Abiding have let many of Elanthia's greatest enemies in. Maelshyve. The Hunger. Outsiders that have established a foothold here where their influence can continue to grow.

Primal Elanthia has shown us visions of what life was intended to be. While that reality is lost to us, we have our own opportunity to take up the mantle of responsibility. To bear the title of Guardian. To contain the wounds. To partner with the Gardeners in protecting Elanthia from threats Outside.

Some of our best and brightest have championed the use of Aether in finding and repairing these breaches, in weaving patches which assist in closing the wounds. The time is now to stand upon the shoulders of scholarly giants and use their research to correct the imbalance that persists upon the Plane.

Warrior Mages, Bards, Empaths, and Rangers. I implore you to rise to the challenge. Let us gather together at the site of a suspected breach and work together to stem the tide.

Upcoming Player Event: Investigating Hrendh Skogar

Date Summary Link

Sep 13, 2024
Some suspect that an unknown malevolent entity is at work amidst the ongoing Wild Magic crisis, either as the underlying cause or simply taking advantage of the situation. Perhaps striking at the plague wraiths that ushered in the worst effects may offer some clue as to the nature or point of entry of this entity, or force it to prematurely show its hand. Bioexorcist Karthor invites interested adventurers to join an expedition to that end. If nothing else, the destruction of these undead menaces may help to shift the balance in a direction favorable to Life. Participants are encouraged to abstain from using sorcery in this endeavor.
