It has been 450 years, 209 days since the Victory of Lanival the Redeemer.

You think it's approaching the Anlas of Starwatch.


Visions Received

Note: These visions were received by the respective five individuals and are shared with their permission for documentation purposes. They were not visible to everyone.


Shaylynne: Everild
The ground around you seems to tremble with a silent authority.

Time slows, and the air takes on a golden light. Everything goes silent.

Before you stands a towering figure, wrapped in the scent of blood and iron, with eyes burning with battle-fueled rage. At his side, a massive reddish-gold boar snarls, its face twisted in a scream of unrelenting fury. Razor-sharp tusks gleam in the dim light, bared ferociously at some unseen foe. Yet, for all its ferocity, the boar's presence carries an unexpected comfort, a promise of unyielding strength in the face of any storm.

As you reach out to touch the boar, a flurry of disparate images fight in the back of your mind for expression. Through the quick succession of flashes you see the Knife Clan encasement, a patch of withering blue irises beset, and a glimmer of golden light waning at the top of the spire.

The towering figure says, "The time has come to blaze a new trail. Mixed magic is the key. Stand before the last encasement and cast all that you can, for we will forge a salvo that is anathema to them, and free Knife Clan. Tell them. And hurry."

The figure slams his spear into the ground, and a golden-silver haze suffuses the area, fading with starlight crackles. The boar lets out a final, ear-splitting snort, echoing with battle cries, as He and boar vanish. The scent of iron and blood fades, replaced by the deafening silence of an empty battlefield.


Aaiyaah: Truffenyi
The air around you hums with a silent authority.

Time slows, and the air takes on a golden light.

Everything goes silent.

A stalwart figure emerges, clothed in simple and rustic garments, his gaze paternal and stern. By his side, an enormous ox with rigid eyes lumbers forward, its coat cast with tawny hues. There's a message in its gaze, a command yet unspoken, a truth it carries from the lessons of hard-won battles.

As you reach out to touch the ox, a flurry of disparate images fight in the back of your mind for expression. Through the quick succession of flashes you see Knife Clan encasement, great siege weapons, drakes plummeting from the sky, and a glimmer of golden light waning at the top of the spire.

The man says, "We call on you now to serve. Mixed magic is the key. Stand before the last encasement and cast all that you can, for we will forge a salvo that is anathema to them, and free Knife Clan. Guide Our children. Tell them what must be done. Hurry."

The man smiles and a warm glow intensifies for a moment, then dims, leaving you with a renewed sense of strength and stamina. The smell of tobacco lingers in the air. He and the ox vanish.


Eyst: All Immortals
The air around you hums with a silent authority.

Time stops, and there is nothing but agony.

The air around you feels suddenly burdensome as though many eyes gaze upon you in authoritative judgment. A snarl echoes across your mind, and you are battered by the significance of Their rage, their disappointment, their... yearning for your return. A cadre of voices hiss in your ear, full of malice and contempt, understanding and empathy, strength and honesty. Making out any specific words or phrases is impossible, yet a message still lives in the madness. A command yet unspoken, a truth carried from the complex order of divine law. You feel guilty.

Your ritual knife rings, as if struck by an unseen force. A flurry of disparate images fight in the back of your mind for expression. Through the quick succession of flashes you see the last encasement.

As the voices subside, you are overcome by a sense of deficiency. Still, strangely, you feel full of purpose and urgency.


Tirost: Meraud
A figure cloaked in the deepest black steps forward, his tall staff crackling with barely contained power. Beneath a deep hood, no face can be seen, only the glint of hidden eyes. A low growl rumbles through the stillness as a massive black wolf pads to his side, its eyes fixed on you. Its tail wags slowly, not out of joy, but as if beckoning you closer. There's a message in its gaze, a command yet unspoken, a truth it carries from the darkened depths.

As you reach out to touch the wolf, a flurry of disparate images fight in the back of your mind for expression. Through the quick succession of flashes you see Knife Clan encasement, a patch of dry, brittle vine set aflame, and glimmer of golden light waning at the top of the spire.

The man says, "Mixed magic is the key. Stand before the last encasement and cast all that you can, for we will forge a salvo that is anathema to them, and free Knife Clan. Tell them. And hurry. Lymira needs you."

The man slams his staff into the ground, and a golden-silver haze suffuses the area, fading with starlight crackles. He and the wolf vanish and you are left with a distinct feeling of purpose, filled with a knowledge you barely recall consuming.


Maintain: Firulf
The air around you hums with a silent authority.

Time slows, and the air takes on a golden light. Everything goes silent.

A cloaked figure steps forward, his black marbled staff crackling with a silvery energy. Beneath a deep hood, you're unable to make out his face, only the glint of hidden eyes. Upon his shoulder perches an owl, its watchful eyes fixed on you. There's a message in its gaze, a command yet unspoken, a truth it carries from eons of foreknowledge.

Entranced by the owl's gaze, a flurry of disparate images fight in the back of your mind for expression. Through the quick succession of flashes you see Knife Clan encasement, an unbalanced equation, drakes plummeting from the sky, and a glimmer of golden light waning at the top of the spire.

The figure says, "Humble one. Mixed magic is the key. Stand before the last encasement and cast all that you can, for we will forge a salvo that is anathema to them, and free Knife Clan. Tell them. And hurry."

The figure holds out his staff towards you. Instinctively, you reach out to grasp it, only to be bewildered by a battery of lightning. A golden-silver haze suffuses the area and you are left with a distinct feeling of wisdom and of knowledge you barely recall consuming. He and the owl vanish.


How it Began - The Immortals Call

[The Healerie, Combat Wing]
The corridor widens here, the ceiling arching upwards in a dramatic vaulted style from which lanterns hang to provide lighting. A practice mat, complete with a display that holds an impressive-sized shield, provides space for training defensive maneuvers and healing while in the thick of combat. Set behind a painted paper screen depicting battle, a circle of soft chairs surrounds a table topped with a decanter and a vase of pink dahlias. You also see a copper lockpick ring, a metallic lockpick ring, a stone seat and some junk.

Tirost hesitantly asks Kethrai, "...Have you seen Nawain lately?"

Crobin gets a telothian serrated parazonium from inside his multi-strapped carryall.

Rileos says to Kethrai, "I ain't so sure, if he's hard like stone he'll surely impact better."

Elurora slowly says, "I think I will go remind myself how many paces from the clan that gate is."

Illiya takes a tiny bite of a dreamy coconut creme cupcake covered in chunky strawberry puree and crystalline sugar and chews daintily on it.

Kethrai says to Tirost, "Not in an andu or two..."

Elurora bows.

Lady Knight Elurora goes west.

Kethrai asks Tirost, "Why do you ask?"

Illiya takes a tiny bite of a dreamy coconut creme cupcake covered in chunky strawberry puree and crystalline sugar and chews daintily on it.

Tirost says, "The marking on her neck since she came back."

Kethrai says, "Ah. Well... I don't know that there's anything to be that worried over. At least... She's seemed fine, medically."

Tirost nods to Kethrai.

Shaylynne gets a miniature silverwood panda cub wearing a smoky blue jaalmin loincloth from underneath a softly padded silverwillow chair.

Kethrai says, "And as determined and in good spirits as ever."

Rileos says to Tirost, "She was just at the auction, looks doin well to me since she was yellin and hollerin with everybody else."

Valynn glances at Shaylynne.

Tirost grins at Rileos.


A beam of golden light suddenly bathes Aaiyaah. They blink as their gaze focuses on a specific point. You turn to see, but can't spot what they are looking at.

Casari peers quizzically at Shaylynne.

Rileos gets a leaf-bladed Imperial spear bound in crimson fabric along its etched bronze shaft from inside his war belt.

Rileos flourishes his Imperial spear about in a butterfly pattern.

Misteeus stretches his arms.

Avrenka asks, "Anyone want a buff?"

Aaiyaah ponders.

Aaiyaah gazes off into the distance.

You notice as a spotted storm-grey lynx with piercing blue eyes pads into the room.

The storm-grey lynx begins to watch the goings on carefully.

Kethrai gazes silently at Aaiyaah.

Tirost appears to completely block out the world about him.

Misteeus shakes his head at Aaiyaah.

Kerennya says, "I wouldn't say no to that WM buff that helps armor."

Kerennya asks, "YS?"

Aaiyaah says, "We are being called to serve....Mixed magic is the key..."

Tirost says, "What..."

Kethrai says to Kerennya, "'Helps' is an overstatement..."

Shaylynne says, "I saw...something."

Dasheek ponders.

Casari stares blankly into the distance.

Avrenka says to Kerennya, "Here's my buff. You are a nice person, and everybody likes you."

Tirost stands up.

Illiya asks, "Serve?"

Crobin says, "Buffing."

Avrenka beams at Kerennya!

Kerennya smiles at Avrenka.

Aaiyaah says, "We need to be standing before the encasement....and call all that we can. Knife Clan, we need to be there now."

Crobin says, "Ready."

Dasheek winks at Crobin.

Tirost says, "Meraud came in a vision. We must go to the Knife Clan and used mixed mana."

Illiya says to Avrenka, "I could use one of those."

Fearless Crobin saunters west, leading his group.


Knife Clan

[Wilderness, Edge of the Primal Encasement]
An abrupt line slashes across the forest here, the tree line ending with a stark immediacy and with the ground cleared. To the north, a crater descends gently downward, encased in a veritable wall of snapping and writhing thorny vines that constantly churn the land and create an impassable barrier. Extending upward into a vague teardrop pinnacle from which erupts a golden beam of light, the lifesculpted spire occupies the same space Knife Clan previously occupied. You also see a pale avaes runestone.

Caledric offers Madigan a goblet of dandelion wine.

Madigan says, "I'll go drop another if things get spicy. I am guessing we will need our brains more than our brawn this go around."

Madigan accepts Caledric's dandelion wine.

Deathbeing scans the area briefly.

Elizzibiana says, "Never even drank it."

Madigan asks, "I am curious what Immortals might jump in the fray for the assault on Knife Clan?"

Whynd sweeps a dapper black top hat sporting amber dice with black pips off his head and in front of him in a large arc, fluidly stepping backward and bowing at the same time.

Elizzibiana chuckles.

Caledric takes a sip of his ale.

Caledric says, "All this good booze just going to waste..."

Elizzibiana says, "Especially because folks have been ahh tampering with drinks lately."

Madigan asks, "Ryeka, where are you keeping yourself nowadays? Zoluren?"

Ryeka says, "And to try to help with our missing."

Elizzibiana gets a snifter of Indakar nectar from inside her spidersilk pack.

Buzan takes a drink of his passionfruit vodka. He begins to look very wobbly, and crumples to the ground in a very uncomfortable-looking position. Strangely, he doesn't seem very bothered by it.

Caledric asks, "Anyone mind if I say a quick prayer?"

Buzan looks happy, and like he doesn't want to move much.

Ryeka snaps to attention and hails Caledric with a crisp hand salute.

Dragon Zealot Elizzibiana goes south.

Madigan says, "Have at it Father."

Damoone praises Caledric.

Madigan smiles at Caledric.

Caledric kneels down.

(Caledric closes his eyes and raises his forging hammer to the sky)

Buzan gets a rather glazed look on his face.

Caledric recites:

   "O mighty Kertigen, Master of craft and forge, Guardian of treasures and patron of the skilled, I humbly beseech you in this hour of dire need. Your strength is known to those who work with hands of skill and hearts of iron, and your wisdom guides the creations of jewelers, blacksmiths, and traders alike. I come before you, not seeking wealth or protection from thieves, but asking for your divine intervention in a greater cause."

Dragon Zealot Elizzibiana just arrived.

Caledric recites:

   "The Knife Clan, once proud and free, now lies ensnared by the Heralds, those ancient beings who seek to choke the lifeblood of magic from our realm. Their towering forms wield power beyond mortal comprehension, and under their cruel gaze, the very essence of magic falters. Spells that once flowed like the rivers now stagnate, and the people of Knife Clan suffer under the weight of their oppression."

Caledric recites:

   "You, O Kertigen, whose hands have forged the finest of weapons and strongest of armors, know better than any that without freedom, without the ability to create and shape our destiny, we are lost. I call upon your might to shatter the chains the Heralds have woven around our people. May your favored workers, the leprechauns, guard not only your treasures but also the essence of magic itself, keeping it safe from those who would see it smothered."

Caledric recites:

   "Let your raven, the symbol of your power, soar over the land, striking fear into the hearts of those who stand against us. May the weight of your hammer fall upon the Heralds, and may your forge burn bright with the fire of our freedom. Guide us, O Kertigen, in crafting a future where magic flows once more, where the Knife Clan is free, and where the realm is bathed in the light of prosperity and strength."

Shar'Elur Whynd just arrived.

Caledric recites:

   "In your name, I ask this, for only with your aid can we hope to reclaim what has been lost."

[Wilderness, Edge of the Primal Encasement]
An abrupt line slashes across the forest here, the tree line ending with a stark immediacy and with the ground cleared. To the north, a crater descends gently downward, encased in a veritable wall of snapping and writhing thorny vines that constantly churn the land and create an impassable barrier. Extending upward into a vague teardrop pinnacle from which erupts a golden beam of light, the lifesculpted spire occupies the same space Knife Clan previously occupied. You also see a shadowling, an ethereal vela'tohr thicket, a crackling sorcerous globe, a pink-eared white piglet with a bright yellow shirt stitched with a chaotic rainbow of daisies on it, a spotted storm-grey lynx with piercing blue eyes that is sitting, a black dog that is sitting, a small electrical fissure, a pocket-sized corgi puppy, a coppery saluki puppy flaunting a goldenglow glaes collar and jadeleaf snood, a spectral white leopard with luminous blue eyes that is sitting, a gold-eyed blue point kitten, a well-fed Kaernan pig, a wooly grotto zari, a pudgy ship rat, a floppy-eared corgi puppy and a bright-eyed night black kitten.

(observe issendar)
You scan the skies for a few moments.

You struggle to make your observation through the clouds.
Looming massively overhead, the being known as Issendar stares down, His pale silver eyes with bright green pupils seeing all. His dark skin and white hair cast a stunning contrast, though do not distract from the rage plain upon His face. His beautifully braided and knotted hair gently fluttering behind Him. His veined hands firmly grasp the hilt of a long sword, its blade a sharp window into a battered seascape. As soon as you avert your eyes, you forget what He looks like.

You struggle to make your observation through the clouds.
Looming massively overhead, the being known as Elide stares down, Her pale silver eyes with bright blue pupils seeing all. Her beautiful features do little to hide Her cold rage, Her flowing robes gently fluttering behind her. Her long fingers delicately hold the hilt of a long sword, its blade a sharp window into an unrecognizable field of stars. As soon as you avert your eyes, you forget what She looks like.

Rileos says to Miraeven, "Well, you're missing out then."

Maintain says to Miraena, "The gods do not forget those that They favor. Truffenyi will always be there to show us the way."

Kalilyna quietly says, "I wonder why they show themselves now... or perhaps it's the Immortals who ripped away the veil."

Miraeven glances up at the sky.

Unaka nods at Maintain, obviously agreeing with his views.

Kalilyna ponders.

Kethrai says to Kalilyna, "Good question."

Shaylynne glances up at the sky.

Asmodaus says, "Blech."

Miraena says to Madigan, "I think that was directed to me? In any case... My only goal has always been to aid the people who did not have the power to help themselves. I am very appreciative of everyone who has helped bring these encasements down."

Kethrai says to Unaka, "Be worried if it did."

Unaka says, "No. Them being up there."

Asmodaus says, "Looking at them makes me nauseous and gives me a headache."

Crobin says, "I am sure they are just admiring my tail."

Madigan says to Miraeven, "You talk a good talk Farm Girl, but you backed the Heralds. You want to switch sides, then keep on helping and stop talking about it. Just do it."

Elurora gazes up at the sky.

Rileos says, "Gods, the more I look at em the more unsettlin this gets. I wonder if they can see us from up there."

Miraena gazes at Madigan.

Kethrai points at Miraena.

Sukidesu gazes up at the sky.

Crobin says, "Give them a rude gesture...that is one way to find out Rileos."

Shaylynne says to Elurora, "A touch creepier than that I think."

Crobin nods.

Crobin glances up at the sky.

Elurora quietly says to Shaylynne, "True."

Madigan asks, "And, I am bloody out of coffee. Anyone have some on them?"

Miraena says to Madigan, "I was here nudging that bolus along with everyone else."

Gwenddolyn chuckles at Madigan.

Reriyn asks, "Can Moon Mages focus in on them with a telescope?"

Nawain gives Briaen a slight nod.

Kethrai says, "Madigan, she's over HERE."

Salubrie blanches.

Unaka quietly says, "Oh."

(Rileos extends both hands up to the sky and makes every rude gesture he knows. It takes a while.)

Kethrai points at Miraena.

Imroth says, "Well in case you had any doubt the Heralds were watching before..."

Crobin says, "His sight Keth."

Miraena asks Kethrai, "I think his eyesight is bad?"

Unaka offers Madigan some swirling blue coffee.

Crobin says, "He can't help it."

Madigan accepts Unaka's swirling blue coffee.

(Crobin grabs Madigan by his shoulders and moves him to face Miraena)

(Kalilyna tenses at the shift in the air.)

Unaka says to Avrenka, "Uhh, look, don't think too hard about it."

Messica says, "Yes, I can observe the heralds with a telescope."

Asmodaus goes south.

Miraena glances up at the sky.

(Madigan cleans his spec)

Nawain asks Avrenka, "Maybe it has frat in it?"

Madigan puts on some reading spectacles.

Days says, "On your face. You probably just need to wipe them down, Madigan."

Crobin angles his ears forward, gazing curiously at Leayne.

Madigan gazes at Miraeven.

Kethrai asks Messica, "See anything... interesting about them?"

Days just nudged Madigan.

Striphe asks, "What are they doin? Making rude gestures?"

Reriyn asks Messica, "Notice anything special?"

Nawain points at Miraena.

Severei's tail undulates lazily through the air.

Avrenka glances up at the sky.

Severei says, "They might very well be."

Leayne glances up at the sky.

Illiya says, "This is why we need to keep enough coffee onhand for Madigan."

Shavay asks, "Perhaps they're slowly being converted into constellations?"

Shaylynne nods to Illiahanna.

Shaylynne babbles incoherently.

Rileos runs his fingers through his hair.

Madigan says, "Just so. Things go bad when I run out of coffee."

Kalilyna asks, "Is anyone else feeling... an almost palpable sense of malevolence?"

Illiya begins chortling at Shaylynne.

Salubrie glances up at the sky.

Messica says to Kethrai, "So far no more detail than I can get observing without the telescope."

Miraena quietly asks, "Now can anyone explain for me simply what I am seeing in the sky?"

Striphe nods to Kalilyna.

Miraena gazes up at the sky.

Unaka nods to Rileos.

Elurora grins at Deathbeing.

Rozalynde glances up at the sky.

Rileos groans.

Kalilyna says to Striphe, "That would do it."

Shaylynne says to Illiya, "Can you stand a little to the right..."

Shavay rubs his abdomen.

Nawain beams at Rileos!

Dasheek says, "The mana streams have felt unstable for a while."

Elurora says to Deathbeing, "Thank you, it's just a tiny scuff though."

Rileos asks Nawain, "I mean I guess!?"

Gwenddolyn says, "Maybe Mad needs to run out of coffee more often."

Illiya winks at Shaylynne.

Nawain praises Rileos.

Striphe says to Kalilyna, "This would solve it."

Tirost smiles at Madigan.

Striphe winks at Kalilyna.

Messica says to Kethrai, "Interestingly, they all appear to relate the strands of fate governing survival. More testing will be needed to see if their influence extends as broadly as that might imply."

Kalilyna chuckles.

Tirost curiously asks Madigan, "How's the coffee?"

Nawain says to Rileos, "Your dedication to public drunkenness does you credit, sir."

Rileos says to Madigan, "Would love to hear what she has to say when she's feeling up to say it, yeah? Don't wanna pester the girl."

Kethrai says to Miraena, "Those are, I believe, the Heralds. At least, the details of them I can remember after I look at them, match what's recorded of the three we've seen before..."

Shaylynne whispers something to Illiya.

Gwenddolyn chuckles at Tirost.

Shaylynne sticks her tongue out at Illiya.

Ezerak glances up at the sky.

Urist just arrived.

Illiya beams at Shaylynne!

Unaka nods at Kalilyna, obviously agreeing with her views.

Madigan says to Tirost, "Well, it is blue...but the taste is outstanding (11/12)."

Elurora nods at Kalilyna, obviously agreeing with her views.

Shavay says, "Yeah, that's not them."

Allye grins at Kalilyna.

Rozalynde says, "And that they took the stars."

Casari says to Kethrai, "The trick is to describe them to yourself in a song, and then remember the lyrics."

Illiahanna nods to Shavay.

Shaylynne grins at Madigan.

Thires blinks at Striphe.

Tirost chuckles.

Unaka observes Casari with fascination.

Imroth says, "Well this is... huge."
