[Sojourn: Weak hit] (Recuperate, Resupply: at max health/supply) I spent that night and the next morning resting up. Aralu’s tea seemed to be doing me a world of good and their company was soothing, but sooner than I wanted it was time to go. It was only just sinking in for me how much of my life had revolved around hating Elves for something they didn’t do.

Aralu asked me to stay in Red Home for a day or so while they made preparations for Adda’s ‘punishment’. Apparently the help I was getting was Aralu themself fighting at my side. It came as a relief, I didn’t want to face the Ghoul alone. It was terrifying and I needed a little time out of Raven Wood to process what I’d been told about dad. “So what was this ritual that he did? [Read More]

I’m pretty sure the pillars are older than the spindlers, no idea what made them. [Read More]

“Ok Nak, so how do I kill it?” “Search me Zan, it’s a legend. I didn’t think they even existed any more. The elves were meant to have killed ’em all off ages ago.” “Well clearly they didn’t. So, am I right in thinking I’m going to need to go talk those bloody twigs to get some information?” “Seems like it.
