Big thank you to everyone who made it out on Saturday. We had a great turn out for our first event with right around 40 people attending. For the Tournament side of the day we had Bobby Milliman come in first in the Trial of the Sword. He won Farien’Gar for this year. Matt Kolecki. came in first at the Trial of the Locks and won Farien’Row for this year. Hunter Drummond came in first place for the Trial of the spell. He will have Fairen’Eld for this year. Congratulations guys.
Now for the storied events of the day. .
A dark time has come over the Myth Wood. The plague that ran rampant throughout the winter has now manifested in the form of the Blighted. People appeared who look just like former Einherjar of the Wood but with different names, mannerisms, and skills. They are lead by two generals, Inquisitor Ursula and Swert P.S. Constantine. These two answer to a mysterious figure known as He Who Walks UnSeen. They have made many attempts to take land and corrupt the people of the Wood to their ideology. By the end of the day He Who Walks UnSeen has taken control of King’s Rest, the Champion’s Hall and Old Tickle Town. Though the Gnome settlement in Old Tickle Town is not pleased it has bowed to the power of the Blighted and now works for them. Also of note two, of the Relics of the Wood have been won by the Blighted in fair trial at the tournaments.
If that was not bad enough. In a fit of bad judgment, alcohol may have been involved, Bernie with the support of Jarl Elric took the Blue Skull to each of the Three Smiths. With an additional magical item Bernie had found, the Smiths forged the skull into a cube. The plan was that it would help control the Revenant who is a plague creature of limitless lives that had been killing the people of the Wood. The results were not as planned. Bernie, Morgan Daniels, Jarl Elric, and the Revenant were joined together by an inseparable bond made from the being in the cube. Bernie, Morgan Daniels, and Jarl Elric took on monstrous forms. While the Revenant seemed to become a bit more human. All four were filled with the Revenant’s murderous impulses and proceeded to kill anyone they came across.
In a foolish attempt to get answers the Einherjar of the Wood joined forces with the Blighted. They captured one of the Four and imprisoned it in Brannhiem.
The Four laid waste to the town and all that were in it.
The heroes of West March manned the walls of Gray Arrow and held it safe from all threats. As did Faolin and his warriors for Hammers Hold.
The stranger Nastra, who as it turns out is a nephew of Marta’s, defended the Mage Tower in his Aunties absence and kept it safe for her.
In short is was a wonderful day. Thank you all so much, I look forward to seeing everyone again on the 23rd of June.
