29 April For Buraku, the next day passes in much the same manner as the previous one, with two exceptions. First, he is incredibly sore from the previous day’s ride, a situation that Selene assures him will take care of itself in a few days. Second, they reach Seltaren as predicted, just a little before [...]

28 April The next day, Selene has Buraku up and riding early. As they ride, she talks practically non-stop, passing on piece after piece of advice about the battling of various forms of evil creatures. Buraku is amazed at her encyclopedic knowledge of their strengths and weaknesses, but is doubly grateful that she tailors her [...]

27 April On the road between Leukish and Seltaren, Duchy of Urnst Buraku opens a door to a room he has been familiar with for more than 15 years – the Leukish Mage Guild magic practice room. As an Aspirant, he stocked the shelves with spell components and swept and mopped up after the Apprentices’ [...]

26 April Leukish, Duchy of Urnst Although Baraku is walking through the woods at night, he can easily see his path thanks to a combination of a full moon and a fresh snowfall. The night is quiet, and he walks carelessly, thinking about an upcoming job. The client is very rich, very generous, and has [...]

25 April Leukish, Duchy of Urnst Buraku is sitting in a wagon being driven through a hilly terrain by the mystery woman. The day is pleasant, but the sky is in turmoil – thick, heavy, black clouds gather on the horizon. As the first lightning bolt streaks across the sky, followed shortly by a rolling [...]

24 April Leukish, Duchy of Urnst One evening, Buraku is sitting in an upper class pub, the guest of a recent client’s youngest daughter, when the entrance of one of the most beautiful creatures he has ever seen attracts his attention. He makes a quick inventory of her assets. Perfect skin stretches over balanced, classical [...]

April 23 Kentaro’s return to Shizen Wa goes unremarked. The place is silent, though that is not unusual. Kinnaka always preferred silence – or more accurately, the absence of sounds not inherent to nature. As a result, Shizen Wa is habitually devoid of “unnatural” sounds. As Kentaro wanders the grounds, however, he notices that this [...]

April 23 (continue) Played 01 Feb Kinnaka kills troll, Kentaro shoots next one with crossbow then prepares to pour acid on the fallen one, but several things happen to prevent this. First, Kinnaka, badly wounded, pauses briefly to swallow several healing beads. Second, the freshly wounded troll, not well pleased with Kentaro’s arrow bristling from [...]

April 23 Played 25 January 2012 The day begins with Sir Klaris leading a dozen of his men to conduct a pre-dawn raid on an orc caravan, if one is to be found. Their goal is to capture 6 orcs alive. They hit it lucky, and return to camp just after breakfast with 5 ocs [...]

22 April Played 4 Jan 2012 A little more than two weeks later, after evicting many more people, spending a fair amount of Danki’s hard-earned cash, and doing their best to get their names spread far and wide as a rough bunch to deal with, K&K are between stops on their list when they see [...]

06 April Played 4 Jan 2012 In the morning, Kentaro, annoyed at the slow healing provided by the orcs’ healing salve, magically heals himself, then tries to aid Kinnaka, but the elf’s resistance proves too strong to overcome, and the spell goes for naught. On the positive side of the coin, however, when Sergeant Bryce [...]

05 April The next morning, both are feeling much better, thanks to the orcs’ healing salve. Sergeant Bryce stops by to test K&K, to see how well they’ve managed to memorize their speech. Unfortunately, Kinnaka only manages to recall the first two paragraphs, so the good Sergeant tells him he will not be allowed to [...]

04 April (continued) By the time they wake up again, K&K’s wounds are very sore and they are very hungry. They spend some time eating and re-fastening each other’s bandages, then fall into another travel-induced stupor. They sleep deeply this time, and when they wake up, they can see a camp ahead – half a [...]

04 April The mini-caravan is off again at dawn, with a day much like the previous one, with two exceptions. First, the weather is markedly better, if a foggy morning and a hot and humid afternoon can be said to be an improvement over light rain and overcast. Second, the oppressiveness of the forest seems [...]

03 April Kinnaka awakens Kentaro a couple hours before dawn (no mean feat!), and following the instructions given to them by Lt. Willman, set off northward. After about 5 miles, they reach a spot within a bowshot of the forest, which appears to be every bit as creepy as they had been led to believe. [...]

Played 15 Nov 2012 Apr 02 Kinnaka is sitting cross-legged in one of the estate gardens, mulling over recent events, and what they might portend, when he feels a sudden urge to find Daniki. At first he ignores the feeling, but it grows continually stronger until it reaches a point where even Kinnaka can no [...]

Played 15 Nov 2012 Upon returning to Shizen Wa, Kinnaka informed Daniki about his conversation with Captain Arigantos. He asked Daniki to research the matter and find any information he could about the demon that had the Captain’s family and where it might be. Daniki promised to try, but mentioned that there are quite a [...]

January 13 Played April 13, 2011 After the departure of Captain Tollak and his troops, Kentaro and Kinnaka decide another assault on the Temple is out of the question. They head instead to Highport, arriving in the same dockside slum as on their last trip. The differences are that this time it’s high noon and [...]

January 12 (end) Skipped play April 06, 2011: E-mail follow-up Captain Tollak quickly has his men gathered together and ready to go. They depart, the soldiers laden with every bit of gold and silver they can carry. Chalices, candlesticks, incense burners, vases, religious icons, and more. They have stripped the sacristy of everything of value. [...]

January 12, continued Played: March 30, 2011 By the time the Captain’s group reaches building 5, the Lt’s men have quit the field back past the barn/equipment shed. The Captain tells Kinnaka that Lt. Terje will return, but will be a few minutes assisting the wounded. With those few minutes in hand, and nothing but [...]
