Event Summaries
The War of Nations
In later times historians would call 5103 a dark year; a time fraught
with chaos and strife. It began simply enough, with the arrival
of a blue-tailed comet. For the Trolls, the comet was an augury
that called forth half-remembered prophecies and legends. The Krolvin
hailed the celestial event as a harbinger of victories to come.
The Elves looked upon it with little more than mild intellectual
curiosity. To the Empress of the Turamzzyrian Empire, beginning
her tenth year on the throne, the comet was a sign of the blessing
of the gods. But to her vassal, the Baron Hochstib... it meant war.
The Griffin Sword
Saga

that would come. It was then, that a voice spoke from the blackened
skies...

Thurfel
When the story of the Council of Ten was first told by the merchant
Uxbri, all of us who had made the little halfling town of IceMule

of the town. Of the "plain facts" of the Dabbingses setting
out from the Landing to start the town, of course, more than a bit
was known. Yet of the rest, next to nothing of the old history.
All this was truly magical. It seemed Paradis halflings were not
as "easygoing" and "simple" as many liked to
believe. And that there was in them, first and foremost, a strong
sense of personal independence even "godly" messengers
could not subvert.

sensed strange energies building, a dangerous force that they feel

Sages and priests alike are investigating the matter to stop it
before it becomes hazardous to the people of Elanthia...
