In the morning, the household awoke and began to set to doing the day’s work. Belynda bundled up Cinder, and tucked her into her cloak. Nathalie and Hilde got the donkey into its harness, and then saddled up Tinza. The cart already had all of the baggage on it, so it wasn’t long before they … Continue reading Fight, Swear, Loathe; Chapter 13

Book Six
The only thing worse for a writer than having no ideas is having too many ideas. I have a terrible habit of writing down story ideas both for gaming and writing and leaving them scattered about my home. I am trying to break myself of this habit by using cloud-based technology (what an age to … Continue reading Book Six
Clues Hidden in Plain Sight
The hallmark of any failed blog is when you post pertinent information therein and literally nobody in your circle of influence even notices. "I wonder why Chip is so depressed lately." Might have something to do with the daily posts on his blog where he talks in gruesome detail about how utterly alone he feels … Continue reading Clues Hidden in Plain Sight
How Many Troops can a Black Dragon Carry if a Black Dragon can Carry Troops?
The three guard units that possess Slothjemia's highly coveted dragonriders assign the riders based on the age and size of the dragon. Hatchlings are not ridden except by smaller races such as goblins, xvarts, gnomes, and kobolds to get the dragons used to carrying people on their backs. After this age category the dragons can … Continue reading How Many Troops can a Black Dragon Carry if a Black Dragon can Carry Troops?
Fight, Swear, Loathe; Chapter 12
Belynda wanted to ask a slew of questions, but she opted to keep her inquisitiveness to herself. The following morning, Hilde had sent her out to find a young lady willing to go with them to the mine and bring back their horse and donkey to stable in Dregladorf. It was a fair commitment to … Continue reading Fight, Swear, Loathe; Chapter 12
Just How Powerful Is This Guy…?
A mistake common to virtually all Game Masters is the sense of trying to balance the story as the players go up in levels and become stronger and more formidable. When it comes to roleplaying it is often the players that make this challenge worse. More times than I can count (and I am guilty … Continue reading Just How Powerful Is This Guy…?
Friends Sometimes Disagree
Up to this point the casual reader might think that Geldenreich and Slothjemia are the closest of allies and trading partners with nary a care in the world. This assessment is not entirely accurate, of course. While the two empires are connected through a short common border and a powerful common enemy there is frequently … Continue reading Friends Sometimes Disagree
Continental Excursions; Geldenreich
Time for an in depth analysis of the most complex and powerful human state in Partum, the empire known as Geldenreich. Divided into four separate parts, the politics of Geldenreich have always been overly complicated. Each of the four parts is considered an Archduchy, and each of them has their own royal house. The heads … Continue reading Continental Excursions; Geldenreich
Continental Excursions; Evelliene
As the elves of Evelliene are quick to point out, their islands are not strictly speaking a connected bit of Partum, the continent upon which sits Fanolania, Geldenreich, and the several dozen other nations that form the lion's share of what might be called civilization in this part of Domum. Evelliene is the term denoting … Continue reading Continental Excursions; Evelliene
Book Five Mostly Done for Now. Maybe.

With copious amounts of vacation and studious use of available free time during normal functioning hours, we are delighted to announce that we are probably done with writing and editing of book five. I realize there is maybe nobody … Continue reading Book Five Mostly Done for Now. Maybe.
