The Spectre of Jaru January 18, 2012 Years ago the Carnifex butchered the townsfolk of Jaru and drew their
souls into a soulstone of great power. It was not long after that
spectral begins began to drift through the land, slaughtered but spared
their eternal torment at the hands of the Carnifex masters. Captain
Cazin, once a member of the militia in Jaru, began to haunt the streets
of Enorian and drew them to the barrier that surrounded the town with
the intention of shattering it and giving the spirits still within the
peace they had long deserved. Citizens of the beacon took up Cazin's
notched blade and destroyed the foul prison, releasing the spirits
within to the Underhalls. The Ascendril's Dawn January 13, 2012 After several decades, the leylines beneath the Ascendril guildhall gave
way to the flow of magic that was channeled above them and exploded in a
dazzling display of unbridled energy. As the Ascendril leadership drew
towards the smoldering ruins of the guildhall, they found themselves
staring into a vortex of elemental power that churned endlessly. Eld
drift through the vortex now, steadily drawing power from the collapsed
leyline and growing ever in number. The Ascendril quickly established
themselves in the Beacon of Light in a great tower known as the Hall of
Elements, led by their guardian and tutor, Iernos. It is uncertain as to
the power of Iernos, the Eidolon of Spirit or as to what shall happen
with the churning vortex that now rages in the depths of the Putorans. The Abyss of Tiyen Esityi January 13, 2012 Wardrums echoed from the depths of the Vashnar mountains as the Nazetu
of Tiyen Esityi emerged once more into the world. With a maddened horde,
they descended upon Bloodloch, declaring that war had come to the city
at last and that their spurning of the Nazetu had was a mistake not to
be forgotten. The whispers of chaos and corruption poison even the
strongest of minds--for now a shadowy figure known as the Overlord
Vostarin stands behind the horde of Nazetu and something malevolent
dwells deep beneath the mountain fortress. |
