QuoteIn the wake of recent events, the Pallid appear to have redoubled their ceaseless incursions, pale portals having been encountered flashing even insofar as the recesses of Ring 98. A three-way duel of domains - king, count, prince - appears inevitable.
Scouting parties have entered the Bonelands, bringing with them tales of a preparation of all-out, never-ending war by the Prince's forces.
The drill continues to be defended by the brave, but courage is counted in moments, not, as the Pallid's endless forces seem to threaten, forever.
Woeful winds reign, clouds clot together, and skeletal figures patrol the road all the way to Ring 92. Proximity is the Pallid's only prerequisite to distinguish friend from foe... and Ring 99 has never seemed nearer to the ceaseless danger the Prince beyond the pale seems to pose.
Concerned souls have begun to gather, in open and in secret, planning their part in the plays to come., whilst elsewhere a clock tick-ticks away, whiling away the hours.. (https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20211218T18&p0=%3A&font=cursivel)
Most of the weekend, including Sunday, with preparatory events throughout the week. Usual rules will apply, see you there!
QuoteThe Lady Oriana of House Sunpurse has been taken from her home at the hands of a sudden invasion by the Pallid Prince's forces. In reply to this tragedy, the young boy Phelan - Crowsong - has come out of hiding with the druids of Pauper Ponds. The return of Phelan, a direct contender to the seat of House Sunpurse opposite the count Zarono Senespur, marks a turning point in the current state of the Peerage Ward and whatever comes next as a consequence and result of the next few days of choice and action will likely spell the future of the ward for a long time to come.
For his part, the boy has but one request: his mother, safely returned home.
The courageous, cunning and the craven may yet all find their part to play in this grand quest...
This will be run intermittently throughout the entirety of Saturday and Sunday by myself and other DMs, so players have the chance to partake in some if not all events.
A prerequisite to (properly) partake in this event is to engage with and complete the quest "A Princely Blow", available in Ring 92.
