No sooner had Bizir and Xozos, two red dragons who made their home in Lotharingia's formidable alpine mountains, been killed than the other red dragons who laid overlapping claims to these parts began to close in and claim their share of their treasure hoards. Cirlolth had escaped the fighting that had led to the death … Continue reading Its like Luther Vandross for Dragons

The Cottage in the Mountain Meadow
The first kick caused the door to fly open, slam against the wall, and swing violently shut again. The second kick followed, and a heavy shield blocked it from closing. The adventurers looked at the scene before them and began to enter the small one room cottage to see what was inside. Their senses were … Continue reading The Cottage in the Mountain Meadow
Jobberstadt
Work in the new settlement of Jobberstadt had been going on for several weeks now and tremendous progress was being made. Directly north of the shared town of Jivet-au-Marruse across the “Bridge of Bones” over the Marruse river, Jobberstadt was intended by the Archduke of Renatus to be a central export and import hub.

The Lambs

Archbishop to Archduke Six. Check.
The normal buzz of energy that flowed through the Divine Hall of the Supreme Pontiff and Imperator of the Dominion was stronger than it usually was. Many things had been happening in the continent of Partum and those in attendance here had a front row seat to watching Callidus Magna pulling the strings that set … Continue reading Archbishop to Archduke Six.
