-----------------------------------------
A missive is sent out to the various cities, by way of word and invitation. The details described a host to be, of the court sorcerer; Chevalier. Seeking to gather individuals of all walks of life, to both listen and assist.
 ---------------------------  
Quote:
'Everyone and thing. Deserves a chance to experience the potential of growth. Of change. And in my travels during my time as a child? I'd stumbled into so many unique locations, imagery being portrayed in the form of leaves and roots. A livelihood that has thus been cast to the furthest reaches of the land. Having gone unnoticed to the many magi and non-magi of meranthe.
But no longer...
  
As its new caretaker. I seek to uproot it from the north and have it serve as a symbol of peace and prosperities between two nations I hold dearly. 
  
Arcadia and Arcanum.
Life and Learning.
    
Two core values, now to shepherd the mindfulness of conviction to be held, when seeking to usher in change onto the world at large, or the realm in ones own mind. Join me, fellow man, woman, creature... So as long as you hold a belief in your heart. The choice to change, will be made, naturally.'
--------------------------
The nature of this gathering will be within dwarven territory. 
(How individuals choose to arrive and respond to said occurrence, is all welcomed!)
---------
DATE: TBA!
TASK: With aid of Faith and Sorcery, uproot Rama. So that it may be replanted, elsewhere.

Exclamation Departure from Arcadia, unto new horizons
Posted by: NeverNights - 07-20-2025, 08:00 AM - Forum: In Character - No Replies

[Image: w2QQwCl.png]

When one story ends, another begins.
The sound of vials and clattering can be heard rustling around in the early hours of the morning in the sleepy pastoral settlement of Arcadia. Countless physicians and doctors wearing the armband of the once Kingdom of Londo can be seen transporting medical supplies and goods from the clinic they worked upon, whisked away to their chief medical directors manor- and then moved from there. Standing among all them, laced in gleaming white and gold vestments, a familiar figure to Arcadians can be seen directing her staff. Speaking in a calm, cold tone. Her platinum white hair refracted the sunrise off its sheen.


Quote: Today is the dawn of a new beginning for those under my wing, those who have been by my side- learned from me and grew into wonderful followers of our practice. Together under nearly forty years of blood, sweat and tears- my friends, my companions and my coworkers have saved and rebuilt countless lives.

 Be it through the power of miracles, the use of mundane- or absolute perfection of the basics; our clinic has thrived and even grew to what it was today.

 
When I had arrived after the destruction of my kingdom- Arcadia had welcomed us with open arms and compassion, taking in my people with naught much left but the clothes on the back and what the brave soldiers of Londo managed to save.

 
From there I perfected the arts of Curia, learned from the progenitor of the ability Sasha Cron and using my teachings I returned in kind my love and passion to those of this sleepy settlement. 

For who can understand loss better than a kingdom built upon it? Those from all of the lost cities gracing its walkways, building back what was shattered, stolen from them.

 
But as time passes on, and things age and change- so do the faces and the leadership- as those once who gave you a guiding hand step back into a well deserved retirement. Of that I cannot complain.

 
What I do not accept under any circumstances is disrespect. Which leads us to today.

My dear co-workers, family and friends. We leave today not because we have grown to dislike our home, we move today because we can be better used elsewhere. Its as clear as day that we are not desired.

 
Through my demotion- a position handed to me by Svengalf himself as proof of Londo and Arcadia’s companionship, to the dismissal of my adorable granddaughter, who wanted nothing more than to be a priestess at Koretheia's side. Should these be the only transgressions? I would happily put my pride to the side, for it has never been about me. But this is not the case.

Through inaction to act upon their own laws- violence breaks out under the boughs of Solais, ‘Allies’ bring in prisoners to assault Arcadians in front of the eyes of others, with no repercussions for said actions. Just angry smoldering words. 

The once regularly held town halls now hold ear to only a select few, appointed not by the people but by a select few with no council thereafter.

 
I'm aware of the bureaucracy, the schedules and the constant besetting of those against my free time as I was a Queen myself. I understand the struggles and the problems that come with it. But this is unacceptable. I will not allow us to turn the other cheek and ignore this any more, for ample time has been given. Months and months in wait for a response.

 
Sweet words can only go so far my dears and darlings, we won't heal Meranthe sitting idly here any longer. And for that, to those of Arcadia- my dear friends, those who had put faith in me even after discovering my past ties as a witch. I bid myself farewell and hope you hold no ill towards us, for our lives as mortals are short and there is still so much to do.

 
Through the virtues of Kindness, Understanding and Respect- may Jiuweihu bless you all.

 
Until I am dust, until I am in her arms once more.

- Queen Fulumi H. Thorruhn
Within the clinic all books and articles regarding her arts and practice along with the works of her doctors and physicians are taken- with all that remains being the patient history and their treatments should their issues ever arise once more. Off in the distance, the deconstruction of chief medical directors abode can be seen taking place. Her intent already solidified. ( 48 hours notice for the people living in the home)

The panicked rustling and the clanking of chains was only drowned by the sound of waves. Two non-magi ran with all their might, rusty iron scrapping their ankles as bleeding wounds were tormented by the surging tides of sea water. They ran on, just barely able to avoid tripping over themselves, just barely able to hold their screams of pain. They avoided the sleeping swuisarme and slumbering arachator, dodging the flaring lights of the capsizing ship, fearfully looking upon the moon hoping it doesn't shine upon them.

She was surely to chase them, the past visage of her still haunting their waking reality. Cold red eyes piercing through bangs of black hair, that saw nothing of them but jigsaw puzzles to play with. At the very least, that was what happened with the rest of the crew: they became nothing more than jigsaw puzzles to be pieced together however she saw fit...

Then they saw it... atop the shore... Civilization... humans... safety... 

... surely...

"D-did we finally escape? Is she still following us?"
"There! I can hear the waves! A Light! We can finally find help!"
-
"Oh Gods... someone... anyone... save us... Please... have mercy..."

"If you are going to do something of true importance, it would behoove you--"
"Do it -perfectly-."
"Do it with such utter and complete confidence that the world itself has no choice but to give you everything you desire."
"Do not compromise. Do not accept anything less than exactly what you set out to do."
"If it is worth doing, it is worth doing it right."

"...and that is why--"


Lessenia. The nation that once hosted Nemea's children, the Faeborne, prior to their seeking refuge from its crumbling in the mid 1500s. Its ruins serve as perhaps one of the only places left in Meranthe where one might find information on the true nature of Wylden as a language-- More than the scattered bits and pieces one might find still evoked by the children of Dal'thala today.

One of those children seeks to find these ruins. She aims to follow rumors and stories of an ancient temple, a place of learning and knowledge and history. To learn what she can, in the depths of the weald, of her history, her language-- and in the hopes to find a treasure beyond compare, that lay forgotten amidst the wreckage.

A shard of a star. A crown jewel. A Chiron, forgotten by time, once a coveted treasure of a now-destroyed kingdom...

...The final piece of a puzzle she has been seeking to finish for all of her adult life.

She will find it. And she will find out who she is, and who the Faeborne once were, besides.



MISSION: Delve the ruins of Lessenia, in search of an ancient treasure and knowledge of Wylden.
ATTENDANTS: The Seamstress + 4 members of the Kingdom of Delphina or other aligned parties.
REWARDS: Primary: A Chiron. Secondary: Priorly undiscovered Wylden runes, symbols and phrases, historic Faeborne artefacts.
STAKES: HCoD. A Chiron is no small treasure to seek, and if it took anything less than the strongest of magi, it would already long be gone.
THEMES: Ancient Meranthine history, beasts of Nemea's weald, and an exploration of Faeborne culture.
STORYTELLER:

  Seeking Fragments of an Artifical Star
Posted by: Only Sane Meranthan - 07-19-2025, 10:27 AM - Forum: In Character - No Replies

As is commonplace, another run of fresh flyers has found itself stapled to the public boards of major settlements across the peninsula.


Quote:In the year 2141 AC, a ritual had taken place within Nightview's observatory.
Magi from across Meranthe came by the dozens, to lend what strength they could spare to a budding artificial star known as Regelus.
And to defend it, when an entity of the Void breached through our realm in an attempt to devour that accrued strength.

In the aftermath, numerous gems were left behind; formed of the collective feelings of those who would give part of themselves to The People's Star, and of Regelus itself, in turn.
Should you possess one - passed down through lineage or held for all these years since,
And would consider parting ways,
Write to Aricles Alline, or Nera of Nightview.

A payment of 60,000c is set aside for each.
Its purpose will be pure, as befits The People's Star.

  A Promised Crown [Musketeers vs Altharim]
Posted by: ethan10000llahd - 07-19-2025, 12:09 AM - Forum: Public Events - Replies (1)

Seven Years.



[Image: 7lxcpxzrb67.jpg]


Following a series of failed discussions, Princess Emmeline Mugen Emeraldi of The Kingdom of Fortune, has proclaimed the intention of war.


The seafaring kingdom itself provides no backing to her... Instead, under the leadership of captain Troy, grand amounts of mercenaries swell into the ranks of the Musketeers, the strong and able... The weak and weary. All of whom are loyal to her cause alone- Or to the copious amounts of coin provided by her coffers. There is but one intention, not to loot or destroy, not to raid and pillage, but to lay claim...

Claim to the crown of Altharim, currently held by Sterling Ryder, and promised to Ragnar E. Sun.
As to why? A publicly stated intention of holding the crown as regent, for one who's hours of fate she had gazed upon...



Regardless of prior relations and intentions, one thing is for sure... An army approaches Altharim's borders.
"How much I have tried more agreeable methods- Yet one thing is sure."
"Fate is unchanging."

"I will fulfill her hours, that I gazed upon seven years ago- No matter what."



TARGET: ALTHARIM

OBJECTIVE: CONQUEST
DATE: TO BE DETERMINED

Once in a while, the winds dwindle to dreadful stillness,
nature flourishes with colours it should not have,
and deep underground - the blood pit stirs.

~x~

In the wake of a new dawn, the streets of Viritas are suddenly tainted by the commotion of shady, cloaked figures at every corner and curve. Residents and passersby notice a strange influx of shadows towards a nearby cave, most of them carrying maintenance tools and paraphernalia, during a period when access to the inside is temporarily restricted. And it is following this situation that a new one arises, as ink-smeared pamphlets are spread through roads and streets.

Amidst some cryptic and/or flamboyant messages, it is said that a tournament is planned to happen in the months to come. People are invited to either showcase or test their abilities, strengthen the proficiency of their dances, and most importantly, sate the blood famine within the pit. Fervent believers are expected to provide a taste of their conviction, and those who are not, are welcomed with open arms to experience the flavor of what it is, to have a working brush.

Word says that, for the best three, prizes are to be expected.
Helpers of organizers estimate a rough amount of...

One hundred thousand coins, along eight pieces of eternite and ten of auguria;
Fifty thousand coins, along five pieces of eternite and ten of auguria;
Twenty-five thousand coins, along three pieces of eternite and ten of auguria.
.
...But before reaching the triumph,
one must learn to embrace the scars.
.
.
.
The presence of those unable to respect the ideals of Her Grace is heavily scrutinized.
.
.

LOOC Information:
i may remember more things later

By default, all fights will be a Danger 0;
Higher Caps are allowed, with mutual consent.

This event will take place at (216,622), inside the Blood Pit.

The date is set to July 27, 17:30 EST.

  A small favor for an ancient
Posted by: Tristam - 07-18-2025, 09:59 AM - Forum: In Character - No Replies

Within Arcadia, there has been a simple paper hung on the billboard, pinned by one of the Svengalf's retainers. Written in a deep green ink, yet with a shaky handline, it reads.

Quote:Dear friends of Mine. Along with those, who seek my councelling and enjoy my presence. And towards those who have interest towards the subjects of Nature, Spirit Realm, Wayfinding and Dreams.

I have lived for more than a century. And longer than the average magi. Teaching, guiding, and counselling people to achieve their projects, and find answers to their responses. I can not count how many times, I have followed others to help in their personal projects. How many relics I have helped to make. I was glad and happy, to see you succeed in your projects and your works. To see your creations concretize. I have never asked anything back in return. Yet. You always told me, if I needed something, you would help.

So today, I will be asking : will you be able to help me finish at least one of my projects of mine ? 

If yes. Meet me at Arcadia later. 

This may be the only occasion you will be able to help me. For now.

Svengalf Sandsker.

[Image: NJj4Lhs.jpeg]
Friday 18th at 6PM EST. at Arcadia
Will be present a bit earlier for those who wants to talk first.
