From the young adult’s novel based on The Mysteries of Arklan Voices echoed eerily through the tunnels, but at least the speakers sounded as if they were alive. The party trudged toward the source of the sound. Navigating the dim passageway easily with their darkvision, Val, Wynlynn, Pantaghion, and Agenar led the way, while Teal, …

Agenar’s journal, page 226
Tonight the group gathered at the Apple to make plans: tomorrow we travel west, to the great Stone Circle in the Wood. Afterward, Wynlynn dragged Val off to wherever they sleep, so I went to bed relatively early, and relatively sober, where slumber soon found me waiting. Tymora holds out a coin, face up, and …
What is Travis Anyway?
When I woke up, I had already been fighting for what I am told for a month. I never attempted to kill anyone, just knock them down. If I ever connected (again, I am told) and did damage, I would heal my opponent quickly. I woke up at some point. By woke up I mean …

Apart from an encounter with some marsh bandits (of which I hope to tell you someday), …
Tilia’s Field Notes: Mine Quest Day 3
Observations outside the mine: Scavengers present when we arrived — including “buzzards” (vultures), some small animals, and a larger animal, likely a canid such as a wolf or coyote — consuming the remains of a dwarf and a human. Could not confidently identify animal species due to our distance from them when they scattered. Unknown …

“What in the Dragon’s name is that?” “This will help.” Val, who just shook me awake, holds out her flask. I take it and drink deeply; the ale soothes my throat. Returning the flask, I ask again, “What is that?” I am slumped across an empty barrel that smells like the ale I just drank, …
