A destruction



  • _Men and women in white and ice-blue straggle in from the woods, many injured, most distraught or enraged or utterly disheartened.

    From the talk and disjointed conversations that people overhear, it seems that the Shrine to Auril in the woods has been utterly destroyed by a force of undead, led by a winged thing of shadow and bone. The guardians were killed and the priests slain or forced to flee._



  • _Ten days after Her arrival Meye Spark leaves her room. She does so in the middle of the night, in the coldest hours of the day. Even though she leaves the inn, she does not travel far, instead she just steps into the water next to the grapevine and lies down there leaving only her head on the surface. In the ice cold water, she starts softly chanting praises for the Auril which she does not stop until dawn.

    From next day on, she is often seen sitting in the Norwick, making herself available for those who want to discuss with her_

    ((wait wait wait….I never chime in like this, but this is a bit too far now for me....isn't it the will of auril to snuff out all warmth and shelter and expose everything to the cold? And a shrine of aurilites is escaping and seeking -shelter- at a warm inn?))

    (( who said anything about they being finding shelter from the weather or cold? there are plenty of other reasons you know 🙂 .. and back to IC ))

  • Aramuil, for his part, coldly eyes the incoming wounded, and offers no assistance to them; instead he focuses on strengthening the defenses and blasting any undead or demons following the group into oblivion.



  • Malika watches the wounded stagger through town and offers some healing as they pass.

    To Meye: We will speak when you are well.

    She walks off to find Dwin



  • As the group of wounded makes their way into town, Dwin sends a few redcloaks to roust the Militia-healers as well as Mia from the Town Healers.

    Get those wounded folks into the Healing-House as soon as possible and see to their needs!

    Guards! Whatever witchery and undead pulled this off was formidable… be extra watchful for anything comin' from the graveyard or the south in general.

    If ya see any of them ODS folks that are supposed to be mindin the cemetery, let em know there's trouble...

    Dwin heads off towards the Grapevine to speak to Meye and her folks



  • _In the ranks of the last Aurilian survivors arriving, comes Meye Spark. Her once snow white dress is painted red by the blood of many. It seems she cannot stay fully on her own feet but is partially carried by massive sized Aurilian man, Brendon Flake. Even thought his man is seemingly severely wounded by himself as well, he seems to shrug his pain off to help the priestess. Third traveler in this group is frost wizard Raman, who with worried expression on his face tries to help the two in traveling as much as possible.

    The gaze in the ice cold eyes of Meye is fixed somewhere in the distance, and her pale face unnaturally emotionless. She is totally quiet, except when they arrive to the town and with quiet voice tells to one of the guards_

    "Tell chancellor to never forget"

    Then this group of Aurilians is seen to head into Grapevine and getting a private room
