The Adventurer Reborn : Announcements - Tristam - 06-13-2023
In the surroundings of Final Frontier, posters have been appearing on the streets' walls. Soon later, whispers and cutouts by travellers and merchants are shared accross the major settlements of the Empire of Meranthe.
These posters are written on a thick scroll, processed to withstand the winds of the desert.
The letters written in black ink, the cursive handwritting is tilted to the left. The tailed characters have an unusual curl towards the right.
Quote:I, Svengalf Sandsker, publicly announce the opening of my enterprise : The Adventurer Reborn.
Since the days of Ragnarök, I have noticed an increase of young aspiring adventurers. In these times, the realm needs new brave hearts and souls to raise from the ashes.
This enterprise has multiple goals in mind but primarily : offering an helping hand to any beginning adventurer. As a refugee myself from the destruction of his homeland, who struggled to find a direction and guidance, I understand how daunting it may be to start alone. The Final Frontier gave me this helping hand, and I am willing to share it back.
I have a market stall at the central place to sell cheap affordable potions and scrolls. If we meet face to face, I also offer counselling and prepare equipement on tailoring, be it armor or weapons to begin with. A token to mark the beginning of your journey. This service is for all ages and all experiences. Price can be arranged.
On an additionnal note with tailored equipement I make : if you would like to discard or retouch the equipement I have made, either because you want something better, it isn't adapted on your height anymore or it is too old, I encourage to return it back so I can experiment something, a project that may bear usefull fruits in our defense for the realm, and both for me and you. I can't promise results, but every effort is worthwhile in these times.
Secondly, this is also a call for other aspiring craftpeople. I am looking to meet other craftpeople desiring to help the realm in one way, but feel unconfident in their combat abilities. Fear not, our hands may hold the sword and the shield to protect what is dear to us, but it was also made to hold the hammer and the sickle to harvest and bend the wealth of the world. In these daring times, may we find inspiration to create and represent our history, and what is dear to us. The pen held by the scholars shall write the sword held by the warriors. Perhaps we may share together our ideas and feelings, and see if we can create something.
I am no leader. These words are written by an ordinary magi. I am unable to reach for the sky, stuck at the bottom. I am a mere pebble among the bricks building a castle. But pebbles together shape a road, that may help climbing the hills. Do not abandon hope. As together and united, even if we are small, we shall build tall.
If you have any questions and would like to contact me, I have a letterbox, decorated with orange banners, placed at the row of appartements. Look the "Sandsker's Residence". Sign your letters with your full name, and I will attempt to reply to you as soon as possible.
You may also find me living arround the Final Frontier, if I am not in a gathering mission.
In other minor services, I also purchase the following ingredients : - Elemental crystals : 50 crowns.
- Fireflies : 33 crowns each.
- Scales : 30 crowns each.
- Amber : 75 crowns each.
I offer medical care to tend wounds and curses in case of need, free of charge.
For expeditions, I can provide medical escort with my natural and crystalline magic. If you would like to hire me, please inform me the details on your expeditions
I thank, everyone who took their time to fully read this scroll and share arround. You have my blessings, a carrier for hope to travel, and to allow a sprout to grow its twigs.
The pen shall write the Sword and Shield of Meranthe
Svengalf Sandsker

OOC notes : European (GMT+1) playtime. If you would like a scene, I highly encourage to use the ingame letterbox for that. If we can't arrange a meeting by IC means due playtime issues, we could settle then a date OOCly through Discord.

At the Final Frontier's market place, the stall of "The Adventurer Reborn" is whirring with a mechanical activity as its retainer borrowed a strange clockwork machinery from the local crafters to store the latest refill of scrolls. Visitors could also notice a flyer hung at the stall, stating an announcement. People living close would be the first aware, until whispers reached other cities.

Quote:Greetings !
I, Svengalf Sandsker, announce that I will take a three years travel soon. I have ensured to refill the stall with, hopefully, enough scrolls to last until my return.
My apologies for future inconvenience in case of empty stock!
In another subject, while I am away, I have opened the doors of my home to extend the list of available products. Seek the appartement with a wooden sign and a mailbox next to the door. Inside, you may find a retainer selling carefully crafted detailled equipement suiting for confirmed adventurers looking for an extension of themselves. Usually, this service is on demand, but you may find some examples of work I can provide.
If you intend to purchase something from there, may it be a good company in your adventures. Take care of it. Let your selection become a pen writing your story.
If you intend to replace one equipement crafted by the enterprise (noted previously by ''S.S.'' and now with ''T.A.R.''), I will gladly take it back for a study and a revision of its usage. Perhaps something could be extracted from it?
I thank for your attention, and be safe !

It has been some years since the last announcement. The vending clockwork has been rightly returned once all the scrolls were sold.
The Holy War years ago has slowed the trades.But today, the stall is regaining some activity as a retainer announces a new refill of supplies after some years of draught.
Next to the stall, there was a scroll pinned with an announcement.
The letters are written in black ink, the cursive handwritting is tilted to the left. The tailed characters have an unusual curl towards the right.
Quote:Greetings !
Many events have occured at the Final Frontier these last years, which had my attention prioritise to them. But after the storm, comes the sunlight. And today, I take this moment of respite to refill the stall with a new batch of cheap scrolls and trinkets to help aspiring and adept magis in their adventures and protections. The wilderness stirs again with the Fel forces, and many reports bold attacks on the roads. Be sure to travel prepared and, or, accompagned to avoid complications.
Should you be looking for boosters, I can also help brewing them if you bring the ingredients.
More quality equipement will be added in time for the adept magis, once I finish all details.
I also purchase the following : - Elemental crystals (specially fire, water and lightning) : 50 crowns each.
- Marignolia : 120 crowns.
- Cobalthine : 150 crowns.
A reminder of the services I can perform :- Artificiery and alchemical work of most kind.
- Medical care for the wounded and cursed.
- Acunpuncture to rebalance your circuits.
- Spiritual guidance and blessings at the Heavenly Blossom Church
- Nature and crystal magi for various related projects.
And in another announcement ! In an attempt to solve the housing issues at the Final Frontier, we announce the oppening of a community center-apartment complex : The Starting Odyssey.
Available for the residents of the Final Frontier, you may fiind inside some rooms to sit and relax inside, along with a kitchen free of use. In the upper floors, you may find some cheap apartments room to rent. Be sure to look closer, as unlike regular apartments, they don't have the glowing blue sigil if available. We have currently 5 rooms for those interested to reside at the Frontier. With more apartments planned should this be popular. And in case of very good popularity : more public rooms may be added, for example a game room.
I thank the director, Andes Moraine, for the help financing the apartments !
That's all for today. My letterbox is open to letters should you have any requests or questions.

Announcing his retirement - Tristam - 06-06-2024
In 2121AC, The Final Frontier could see an announcement close to the yellowed posters about the public medical and wayfinding classes. The writing is familiar, similar to these posters.
Quote:Greetings, people of the Final Frontier and Meranthe as a whole,
I am Svengalf Sandsker. Many of you may know me as a Radiant of Alacritas, Coordinator of the Proto-Institute, teacher in medecine and wayfinding, artificer and alchemist, and many more. It has been 65 years I have been living in the Final Frontier since the events of Ragnarok. 50 years I have been teaching people the art of medecine and healing. 40 years I have been guiding and counselling many souls to find a purpose and taste in Life. 35 years I have been teaching the arts of Traversal magic. I have met a lot of people through these classes, or assisting in many of your projects. You all have great ideas, and I am happy to still see them nowadays.
And with many new practionners and teachers now, it is time for me to flip a page over. I will be assisting the Elysium training program in the medical and wayfinding classes. And then after, I will no longer hold any classes in regards of these, publicly officially retiring. I am confident that the current generation is able to carry on the teaching of these arts.
This retirement will also extend in any assisting projects I do not have direct involvement with, and requests to teach the arts of spiritmancy and telepathy in private. While I do appreciate the interest you all bring to me, I am no longer able to fullfill everyone's requests. And rather than making you wait until I find free time, I do encourage doing your own ressearch or find my students for guidance.
This also means, that any letter asking for private mentoring will certainly denied.
This retirement will allow me to focus on innovation, personnal projects, solving that new catastrophe looming over us and carrying my responsabilities as the Curator of the Heavenly Blossom Church. More to come about the church later.
It is planned altough to make a museum section about Wayfinding later, as a learning reference for future practionner.
My sincere appologies for those who were looking to learn from me. I do appreciate the attention given, but I do not want to make empty promises anymore, unable to satisfy each request within my busy schedule. I do hope you may understand.
But there wil still be a possibility to learn under my guidance elsewhere. More to come later.
Thank you for your attention. I do wish the best of strength and wits in your daily endeavors.
Kind regards,
Svengalf Sandsker.
