13/1

Brenis the Blue gathers a group of adventurous men and women together. He deliberately chooses people that aren't high profile and are relative unknowns. He does this for two reasons, 1) So that if anything goes wrong they won't be missed and 2) If they realise just how big the problem is, they won't be able to start a major panic or tell the wrong sort of people.

Having had his eye on some of them for a while, he now gathers them together at his Tower in Evost Derry.
They consist of ;- Major Hector K'Letz, Terlo Farways (a scout), Corden West (a man at arms), Serle Danro (a Daasin archer), Sarana of Berthain (a Prayer dancer), Reath (a soldier of fortune), Mel Fen the Magician (an overweight conjurer), Myrten D'Taine (a hard warrior) and Mathias Wintermourn (a legend in Derry's taverns for his drinking).

He tells them about a small group of undead near Garrolie. They leave 2 days later.
Brenis' plan is to learn a little more about the undead and study some ghouls up close. It is meant to be an information gathering mission.

6/2	The Undead Advance The Wraith, Marghoul, marches his army of 1450 undead against Esia's northern-most towns of Balram and Ostenard. Balram's population of 800 and 12 villages (population 180) are massacred. Fifty people are captured and allowed to be bitten by the ghouls before being imprisoned. In three days they turn into ghouls themselves.
7/2	Ostenard falls to Marghoul's ghouls. 600 people and 4 villages of another 60 people are decimated. There are no survivors. Marghoul and his allies, the Priest's of Orin, conduct a massive ritual over the dead bodies, burning and then raising them as skeletons.
8/2	Marghoul heads south leaving 50 ghouls and 100 zombies behind in Ostenard. Balram is looted for weapons and armor before being burned to the ground. Kildray the Wraith and 100 skeletons entrench themselves in the ruins.
10/2	Marghoul sends 200 zombies, 25 ghouls and his lesser Wraith Muadim east to the town of Surle. Lord Mabdal there has formed an allience with the dead, allowing Muadim to conceal his zombies in the Derro hills after being promised life after death, great strength and eternal power etc.
11/2	10pm. Muadim floats up over Keep Derro's walls and unlocks the gates. His 100 zombies make quick work of the 50 sleeping soldiers stationed there. Leaving 5 ghouls and 10 zombies behind, Muadim continues his way south into the piping plain, arriving on the 15th.
12/2	News reaches Castle Dunkritchof Ostenard's defeat. The messenger, bought off by Marghoul with a few gold stators, says that a Daasin army has marched across the Brown Barrens. Panicking, Callen of Dunkritch rides south at speed to warn Lord Braggen of Satyrn and Keep Sattar of the impending invasion. Late that night Marghoul arrives at Dunkritch's gates. He shouts up in his raspy wraith voice, "Lord Laylak hath commanded this place purified to the Dark. So shall it be."
13/2	The village of Kritchlo is wiped out by Orin priests wearing Daasin armor. Some people are allowed to escape. They flee south.
14/2	Castle Dunkritch falls. The old hero, Hettar Rule challenges Marghoul to a fight and loses. Marghoul tears the man's heart from his chest in front of his family. Of 70 prisoners, 18 are turned into ghouls. Marghoul again raises the dead in Dunkritch's bailey, increasing his army by another 150 ghosts and zombies.
15/2	Two messengers arrive at Keep Sattar from Dunkritch. Upon hearing about the invasion the 20 men residing there abandon the keep and flee into the hills.
17/2	Callen arrives at Satyrn and warns Lord Braggen. Satyrn goes on the defensive dispatching messengers to all the southern lands and the City of Esium. Braggen does send a few scouts north to get some idea of the invading army's size.
20/2	Durlendow warned.
22/2	Silverry warned.
24/2	Late in evening whilst in the middle of a wedding celebration, Courtney receives warning of attack in the north. The Lady Sonja dispatches 300 men north to Silverry the next day - under charge of the infamous General Brook.
30/2	Warning reaches Yossiren and Major Buchanard. Buchanard gathers up his platemail and rides out with 80 fifty men to meet General Brook - not even waiting for his Lord's permission.
3/3	News reaches Esium of the attack on Ostenard. Faramas the Wizard finds out about it at 10am. He tells Alexor the White by 10.30am who then uses his magic to divine the undead's numbers. Faramas then consults with the High King but doesn't tell him that the army is in fact undead. Instead the High King issues a proclamation that Daas has attacked.
5/3	Esium dispatches 500 normal soldiers, 150 elite guard, 80 keep soldiers, 500 militia men, 50 knights of Emonra, 100 Knights of Ortha and 25 warriors of Koen.
11/3	Ross arrives at Trent on the Way.

26/3	Brenis organizes another expedition against the undead. This time to Neath.

31/3	Naschu and his party depart the Tower of Fire near Irendy on a Quest to save Guildencrantz's people - The Crystalline Living Ghouls.
1/4	Naschu arrives at the River Ashwent. As he catches a ferry across the river he notices movement on the bank behind him - as if he is being followed. That night his fears are realized when the party is attacked by unknown assailants.
3/4	Esium's soldiers arrive at Dunkritch castle to find it deserted. They discover Dunkritch's water has been poisoned and have to send soldiers foraging to other nearby villages and into the countryside.
9/4	Naschu receives a cryptic message from Brenis of the White Chaptor saying that someone useful is going to meet him at the Ghoul city.
16/4	Naschu's party is attacked by a flock of giant Wyverns. Alyx of Akaila proves herself a handy ally when she uses a Wyvern slaying stone to fell the largest (almost dragon sized) Wyvern in a single shot of her sling.
28/4	Rombhard Stalawane joins Naschu's party - Rombhard soon proves himself as an odd type of enchanter - perhaps unique as his ideas step out of the normal.

1/5	Gray attends market day at Esium and buys himself a black stallion. Magus Felinus (a.k.a Tobias) is enlisted by the Cat Lords.
2/5	Parriah of Luna has a dream.
4/5	Naschu, Kayly of Berle, Guildencrantz the Ghoul and Sebastian Brook are slain by Kurakal & the Titan Skull of Eskanu.

Within the hour, the Daasin Embassy is burned down by the High Doman Gray.
9/5	Cobal Jacks and his bandits of Leah attack the Daasin Ambassador en route to the coast near Nail. Gray learns of the attack and goes out for vengeance.
11/5	At 1am, Tess Hardy breaks into Faramas' tower to find him dead. As she flees, the tower destroys itself. Prince Korbas of Esium is kidnapped at his birthday party by Gray of Wan. Commanding Ythkrazsk (a xihort) to kill the King's bodyguard Foleas, the Doman and his assistant Valin return to Gost Yaroch with the young boy. Foleas survives but fails to recapture Korbas. Instead Korbas is delivered into the hands of Queen Kitara who makes the little rat boy very welcome. The Dragon Skegrin begins a five day reign of terror and decimation against the Yarilian city of Gost Eyedem.
15/5	The Army of Greyog - An Undead Uprising From the 15th to the 22nd - these nights are known in Esium as the Seven Nights of Sorrow. Midnight - Laylak's priests call upon Greyog, Prince of the Undead. For seven nights, all across Esia, Poru and northern Sulin (an area some 800 miles in diameter), an army of dead materializes from the Plane of Greyog. The army remains each night but come dawn's first light, vanishes. At the end of the seventh night, come dawn, the army vanishes without a trace. Each night, those slain by the army vanish come dawn, only to come back again the following night as undead themselves. The Undead consist of patches of moving flesh, pillars of bone, skeletons, ghouls, zombies, mist demons, ghosts, ghasts and rot fiends. Thousands of people are slain. Whole villages are decimated, towns rampaged and cities shredded. Using Lullreth Crûme, Laylak imprisons the 3 Lich King's of Esium within their Temple. Lullreth's evil wards are so potent that even the ancient Pentacul cannot escape them. Simultaneously, for the entire seven nights, Laylak's Wraiths strike key villages and towns across all of Esia. By the end of the seven nights, Laylak holds all the cards. Outside of Esium, a Wraith's tomb rises up from under the graveyard. Adunathel and the Sisterhood of Magic defend 16 Broken Way against undead. Ross organizes the defense of Esia's town of Worlen. He eventually retreats into Worlen's Town Hall to make a final stand. Damon (a thief) of Evost Derry leads a revolt to take the city with aid from the Wraith Kasirus. Gray makes the most of the Chaos by sending two of Queen Kitara's spirits (Ilmiore and Phaze) into the Temple of Sav'Knor (In Esium) to steal a lot of rare texts and scrolls. Laylak attacks Plead's wood; seeing the Druidess as a potential threat he decides to burn her wood to the ground. Plead dies, but not before sending word to the Sisterhood.
16/5	Esium Falls - The 2nd Night of Sorrow Midmorning - Gray dreams himself into Esium's thieves guild and slays Mendez of the Black Chapter. But when he tries summoning Ilmiore, his power goes awry, attracting Carvus of the Death Watch and his band of Assassin spirits. 5.00pm - A tornado strikes Laylak's encampment in Esium's graveyard. 7.30pm - Chaugra Grana (an ugly earth giant) is raised outside Esium's walls by Pranulus the Green. Laylak's Wraith's battle the earth giant, wrecking Esium's southern gatehouse in the process. Eventually, 12 consecutive lightning strikes reign down on Chaugra's stony head, forcing him to retreat. Taking advantage of the chaos, Emonra's priests launch a counterattack on the Wraiths. The Wraith Azbin is blown up by Sun spells. 7.45pm - A swarm of bats causes problems for the Palace Guard. 8.00pm - 800 Undead of the Pale Wood arrive at Esium's outer wall under the command of the Ghost Lord Grutha. 8.30pm - Elbedar Nox and 500 shadows arrive at Esium's outer wall. Laylak's allies are now in full attendance; the Wraith King prepares for the final assault that will gain him Esia's throne. 8.45pm - A powerful beacon of light shines from Esium's Theatre hall, striking terror into the Wraith's and undead. The beacon doesn't last long but does bide people in the palace time. Celese asks the Wildfolk to bring a gigantic wave of water crashing down Worlen's river, flooding the whole of Worlen. The running water makes it impossible for the undead to materialise again. 10.00pm - Earl Khibar is slain by the King's bodyguard Foleas. Dothdray of the Wraiths orders Esium's surrender. 11.00pm - The Flag of Esium is taken down. Laylak's Orin flag is put up in its place. Midnight - Some places in Esium are still fighting and holding out. Gray transports people from the Temple of Emonra to safety before the undead batter down its doors. But when he arrives in Esiador the Priests of Emonra imprison him.
17/5	Kellique of Emonra dies. Gray dreamshifts out of his cell, spending the morning in Esium's Ranger Lodge. The people of Worlen evacuate to their Mountain hold. At dusk they are pursued by hunting ghouls. Dusk - A ring of fire erupts around Esium's graveyard and Laylak's undead forces. Many shadows are lost and zombies incinerated. The Sisterhood go over Esium's wall, fleeing to The Towers of High Sorcery. Midnight - The palace of Esium falls as King Celdas is slain in front of his throne by Laylak. The King's assassin Avery tries backstabbing Laylak along a corridor. Laylak drains the man to withered husk. Foleas is teleported from the Palace by the Lady Mercy. Gray - also in the Palace snooping around for old books, rescues Sable Anne of Araborn - one of Elandia's Ambassador's to Esium. Unfortunately her husband Threx had already been eaten by zombies. Unable to outrun the ghouls, Celese calls upon the elusive Kerri folk who sing one of their mystical songs; the entire surviving population of Worlen are massmorphed to appear as trees, causing the ghouls to pass them by.
18/5	Tess Hardy frees the Lady Mercy from Laylak's collar of control. Laylak attacks the T.O.H.S with his Dark Hand, but the Tower's repel his magic.
19/5	Gray returns to Gost Yaroch but is stopped on the gate by a guard called Garegi. Garegi doesn't believe the Doman is anything but an annoying little boy and beats him with a stick. Gray is furious - The High Doman of Wan is not beaten by a stick - ever! Gray knocks the man out before going to the shrine of Wan to pray.
20/5	Foleas, Garf Rinkton, Aduna and Shanna, leave the Towers to find out the scale of Laylak's invasion and gather survivors.
21/5	Ross begins experimenting with his innate sorcery. At first he begins entering the minds of birds; learning how birds think and communicate he starts piggy-backing his way around Gost Iren by riding his mind alongside a bird's. By doing so he learns that Gost Iren has also been overrun with Wraiths and undead.
22/5	Urgryth the Pale is slain. The remaining priests of Wan attempt an astral ritual to locate a new High Doman. Unknowingly, Gray sits in their midst, watching the ritual take place. As the priests traverse the astral plane they are spotted by Laylak. The Wrath King arrives in Gost Yaroch and calls upon the Living Dark to implode the entire shrine. All the priests are slain (Aredis, Pavelar, Lebraj, Ave, Rorda, Capel & Curig), but Gray survives - his skin burning white from a holy fire. Watching from a distance, Kerri Dhwen sees a gigantic black hand descend from the sky and smite the shrine of Wan; she is awed. A blackened Gray (with skin burn't by Dark fire) is later pulled from the rubble. After a day his skin returns to normal. Foleas and Aduna encounter Cobal Jacks. Laylak spends some time sat on his new throne.
23/5	Ross rides into the village of Buxly by the Brook to get Sky - blessed of Ortha. Sky has recently discovered he can channel lightning at will, which will be useful when fighting Wraiths.

5/6	Foleas Thorn, Cobal Jacks, Shanna and Aduna arrive at Silverkeep. They are all impressed by Elensyll and Hawk.

8/6	Arwen and the Mengale mercenaries defend Lord Ronday of Caermaag.
10/6	Ross prepares for his wedding whilst visiting Gost Arnan. Ross makes an ethical stand against the rest of the Resistance, finding their suggestion of using assassination as a means to an end, appalling. 8.00pm Kreedin of Ruga is kidnapped by the Resistance in an attempt to unite Ruga under one leader, Hundal. Mercy, Avalon, Sky, Hethcanter and Micheal attack Kreedin's Blood Guard.
11/6	Kreedin is questioned and delivered to Hundal who kills him in a duel. Gray spends a lot of time copying his main scroll into various sub scrolls.
12/6	Rufix and his Wraiths attack the Resistance. Sky uses his power of Call lightning to blast Ajamir the wraith into oblivion, at which point Rufix decides to retreat.

Once the Merlendy Nail is inserted into its correct place, its magic spreads to each of the larger Nails, rendering the town of Merlendy complete protection vs Spirits and Wraiths. The Esian army begins its river jounrey to Gost Eyedem.
19/6	Lord Lamen of Swane refuses to give aid to the Esian army.

Avalon is "challenged for truth" by Tal-kin, contender for the Stone Seat. Avalon summons the Eldar horse Lathander and wins a riding contest against Tal-kin. The Chudain, seeing Avalon is obviously telling the truth because he can ride a horse better than one of them, pack up and head towards their Tirade and the Seat of the Holy.

21/6

The end of the Shadow War
The Veil of Gloom is torn, resulting in all the Shadows being lost. As a result, unable to draw upon the
substance of shadow, all mystics lose their powers.
Despite hiding the fact, most are overthrown within the next few weeks by uprisings among the common people. Only a few escape, swearing that Shatul will return and secretly forming the Ka’shatu’mon – “Servants of the Voice”, based upon Shatul’s last words before vanishing.

28/6	Taking down a Dragon 101 9am. The Resistance launch a well planned surprize attack on the dragon Skegrin. Mercy creates an illusion of the dragon in Merlendy. Everyone taking part in the attack stands in position around the life sized illusion. Then on Mercy's go, she teleports everyone across to just outside the Dragon's aura. Several people go - Including Mercy, Jase Brose, Steel, Ross (using his Blue sword and Triskelle), Prince Saul etc The attack lasts under 10 seconds. Jase Brose and Bry-Hane of Yarili die but the Dragon dies too. 11.30am. Ross, Foleas and Adunathel attack Marduke as he mourns over Skegrin's dead body.

29/6	Avalon goes below Sulin in search of Kasarak and Tye Ghastimir's tombs.

The Monarch attacks the Yarilian Lords but ends up unsuccessful.
2/7	The Battle of Leahmarc on the Marcon Fields A small Rugan and Wake army attack Foleas' Esians. Ashar (secretly) gives the mage Travelin warning about a bomb planted in the middle of the battlefield. The Laylak bomb is prematurely detonated by Mercy's mind with no casualities. Branaur, Timon, Hassan, Drake, Hieval and Talisann of Silverkeep all die in battle against the Rugans and Wakers. At the height of the battle, Laylak projects himself above the fighting. His black crown smites a dozen men dead causing widespread panic. To help rally the troops and boost morale, Mercy bathes Foleas in a glowing light with her mind. Eventually the Esian's prevail. Beth returns from visiting the Kerri Folk to learn about the World Song. She has a lot to think about.

In trying a broad mental search for Elensyll, Mercy manages to pick her faintly up inside the Castle of Evil. In a bid to try and learn more about his sword, Shadow Thorn, Foleas someone gets it to summon 12 minor Earth Elementals. But as he grows closer to the blade, so does his spirit shift closer to the realm of shadows so that eventually he risks becoming a shadow himself. Foleas begins experiencing strange shadowy dreams. The Siege of Ringmarc Meanwhile at the besieged Citadel of Ringmarc, Tucha, the fire Mage of Ringmarc has his napalm fireball "turned" by Travellin's Spell Turning gem. The fireballs ends up killing 40 men of Ringmarc and wounding another 115. That night, furious about his great spell going awry, Tucha sends a Succubus ghost called Ihlahn into the Allied camp. But before Ihlahn can kill anyone (by kissing them to death), Angel Heart warns Adunathel. Aduna manages to save General Brook and release Ihlahn's spirit from Tucha's control. Ihlahn cannot thank Aduna enough and promises to help in whatever way she can, telling Aduna where she is buried and what to dig up so that she can travel with her.
5/7	Casting a long and dangerous ritual, Tucha traps the leaders of the allied army within the "Mist of Abandon". But again Tucha underestimates the powers arrayed against him as by midday, Hethcanter has led everyone to safety by sensing along the spiritual link to his Wizard tower. Landing his magical Merlendy bridge inside Ringmarc's inner bailey, Aduna jumps off ethereally and begins killing people left right and centre whilst Shanna hurls fireballs from the bottom step. By mid afternoon Ringmarc surrenders. Ross and Celese begin their investigations into the Brass Forest. It isn't long before they are taken under guard by Lord Anseel and his Watchers. Later, meeting with Revan the Smith, they are offered help against the wraith and shown Revan's stash of Mirror-mir.
6/7	Arastafin the Mage of Gost Arnan kills a Death Watch sent to kill him. He decides to pack his bags and travel to Merlendy - the only safe place he has heard of.

Hethcanter, Shanna and Aduna visit Pranulus' abandoned Wizard Tower. The Shadow meets Foleas on the roof of the Eagle's Rest Inn and displays his incredible powers.
8/7	People get very drunk in the Eagle's Rest - Foleas being one of them.
9/7	Eubec arrives in the Rose Valley with Taraino and 350 mercenaries. Another odd day for Aduna as she listen to Angel Heart and rescues 4 women and a man from an exploding cauldron. Gray nearly dies getting past the Jixiliah and into his Vault. He fails to give the correct sign or words of entry and gets clobbered. He does learn one thing from the experience - That the Jixiliah is very powerful!
10/7	The Battle of Wake A force led by Lord Easef (including Adunathel) storms Caer Folsworth from Hethcanter's magical bridge. Marduke High Priest of Orin speaks spiritually to Aduna from the battlements. He leaves her a message in his dungeons. Avalon cures Shanna of Revirias' Black Blight.
11/7	Aduna jumps on Taraino.
12/7	Hethcanter pays a visit to the dwarves of Dol Arasdorm in Kane. He has an idea and wants to consult them about commissioning a Golem made from Minog (a dense metal that absorbs magic).
13/7	Sir Camand and Sir Cavos assist Kildarken in slaying the Wights - Ilbeas and Junas. Gemma Ulays, daughter of Lord Efrates of Timber assists Avalon in healing. Before the Resistance arrives, Kasirus attacks and kills Kildarken's Major Vakan. Ross meets General Martel, Kildarken, Ateve of Emonra, Settar the thief, Arilaine of Luna and Hastor of Emonra in Evost Derry's palace. They discuss how the Resistance can help but Kildarken isn't too keen on having Wizards taking charge of things. Ateve doesn't think that much of Ross either - afterall, what can a young elf boy tell them about war and combating evil? At Dusk, Adunathel's curse is lifted when she lies in the dragon's lair upon the bones of her friends and relatives.
14/7	High Doman Gray enters his vault in Dark Sea after eventually by-passing the Guardian Jixiliah outside. In their search for Laylak and his Wraiths, the Resistance checks out the Tomb's of Derry. With Celese entering many of the older tombs in her astral form, they quickly eliminate all bar a few of the tombs. They discover the tomb's of the wights and burn them. They also discover another magical tomb. As it is daytime, Avalon cuts his way in expecting to find a wraith or two. What they actually find and awaken from enchanted slumber is a group of Armageddon Elves led by Cartanis. Placed asleep over a thousand years ago, Cartanis and his Legion of Valor were expecting to awaken and see a flock of Dragons soaring overhead, heralding the final days of the World. Instead they see Avalon, Celese and Ross. Avalon promises Cartanis he will find some way to put them back to sleep and is very apologetic.
15/7	Gray rescues Alyx of Akaila and Mathias Wintermourn from Rombhard's magical mirror. Kildarken is defeated by the Monarch and about to be slain, when Ross turns up on the scene. The Monarch leaves but issues a simple ultimatum. "Surrender Derry or Die." If having the Monarch after him wasn't enough, within the hour Ross is attacked by two of Maloth's shape-shifters, hell bent on revenge. Western Daas makes its move on Evost Derry Kasirus, uses Maerledo's censer and a glove of magic to raise the Churn (Derry's bubbling central lake) and flood the Daasin HQ. Celese manages to re-direct most of the water using her Wild Folk, sparing a lot of innocent people who could have been drowned. Kildarken fumes; having had enough of Kasirus and his wraith games, Kildarken gathers his Paladins, Ross, Avalon and Sky in a bid to attack Kasirus and kill him. Kasirus retreats back to his tomb but loses the wights, Katus and Otus. Tess and Sky destroy the gates to Derry's Palace. The Daasin army charges in. Colene and the spirit Razor kill all the gate guards. Evost Derry is taken by Esiador with the Resistance's help but Arilaine of Luna dies and Ross is poisoned by a Monarch Adept. Kerri Dhwen delivers a painting to General North in thanks for his help.

16/7	Adunathel and Shanna visit Dina's wood - Home of the Wood King and Wood Queen. There they meet Ariel (a young girl who has been raised by the animals of Dina's Temple) and defeat Oricatu the Wraith. Aduna and Shanna don't get away; they are confronted by Rafeas, the Angel of Seduction and completely seduced. Aduna manages to break free of Rafeas' control using Angel Heart. Ariel gives Merlendy some gifts - magical seeds of resurrection.
17/7	Ariel gives Jane of Plead's Wood the Tarn of Dina - a magical object that when worn, allows the wearer to commune with all types of natural creatures. Jane then returns to the Sisterhood and Merlendy.
18/7	Aduna explores the old temple to Orin in wake and gets very spooked. A lot of painful memories come flooding back.
19/7	Following Tess, Aduna visits the Heart of the Towers of High Sorcery. She is impressed by the crystal table and 5 high backed chairs made from different substances - wood, metal, gemstone, ice and fire.
20/7	Attacking the "Castle of Evil" (The C of E) The Resistance and Silver Keep assault the Castle of Evil on top of the Catacombs in an attempt to rescue Elensyll Hawk. Taking no chances, Torin Hawk, Lord of Silver Keep, uproots the spirit of Silver Keep and brings it with him into battle. Hethcanter's magical bridge lands on the roof of the castle. The assault force takes out the guards within seconds. After fierce battle the Lady Cloe (once a member of the Conclave of Shadows but turned Crucible lackey) is slain and Elensyll rescued. Tess and Hethcanter hand out a great deal of abuse to the Crucible mages. Tess destroys Istar's Guardian Hound - an immense golem that took Dukal Kablu 8 months to animate. Hethcanter then proceeds to bring large areas of ceiling down with his earth magic. Istar, in a fury at the sheer audacity of his enemies in mounting an attack on his home base, lets off a dangerous 1 second death spell. Risking his own destruction he succeeds in killing only 3 Knights of Silver Keep before Hethcanter drops another section of roof almost on top of him. The Resistance retreat back up Hethcanter's bridge to Merlendy but leave behind Hethcanter's stone golem, wreaking havoc with the Castle's architecture. The entire assault lasts less than 6 minutes. The Harvest of Eskanu begins. Rossanna (Lord Garth's wayward daughter) steals the Merlendy nail from its shrine, bringing down the town's spiritual protection. Fleeing Merlendy with the nail wrapped in a blanket, Rossanna uses a ring she has been given to summon Dale, a member of Orin's spiritual Death Watch. But as soon as Dale appears, Ross arrives on the scene, taking the man's spiritual head. Ross then turns to Rossanna and shakes his head saying "Silly bitch."
21/7	Ball at Queen Kitara's palace in honor of Valadan - Lord of Stars, who is visiting eastern Daas over the next few weeks. Tragedy in Yarili. The Monarch, after several failed attempts to remove key figures in the seven states, launches a full scale attack on the rulers of Yarili. At 11pm 12 Monarch Adepts, 1 Apt and the Monarch himself use Magical mirrors to step through to Caer Kemmel and kill its two most powerful Lords in their sleep. They then move to Gost Arnan's palace and kill King Orin and his daughter, Princess Yisselda before also killing 3 other Lords on the way out. Note - King Orin (no link to the God Orin whatsoever - just unlucky enough to share the name) was extremely unlucky. All he had to do was trigger a magical device and it would instantly transport him into his own vault and to 2 potions, cure all poisons and cure all wounds. Unfortunately the Monarch killed him before he even knew it. Taraino is set up as the murderer and imprisoned. When Ross finds out, he journeys to Gost Arnan and becomes Sherlock Ross, out to free his friend. Adunathel locates Imirical the "retired" mage, living in Gost Arnan. Merlendy needs magic users and Aduna tries enlisting the mage to fight in the war against Orin and the Living Dark. Imirical says "I'll consider it." It is a little later in the morning that Aduna has strange encounter in one of Arnan's many Inns. She senses something probing her spirit - a hooded man sat in the shadows. Freaked out, Aduna learns that the being is called Tibus of Osarki. Later she comes to realize that Tibus is a powerful Undead being and one of the 3 Undead Lords - drawn to her spirit because of its strange Draconian feel. Note - Tibus of Osarki was a Seer and an honorable man in life. But after being turned into a unique Undead creature incapable of physical sensation (literally a walking, talking dead body) he was betrayed and imprisoned by his brother and thrown into the ocean trapped in a chained box. He has just managed to escape, after several hundred years and Aduna is the first being he has spoken to in all that time. Gray moves into a new address - The Cliff estate on Whitecliff Road, just west of Gost Yaroch. He begins placing the people he has rescued here, giving them a roof over their heads and an income as his servants. Gray later receives an omen in the form of a Stryr gull - an extremely rare bird.
23/7	General North attacks the town of Rynstisin with his Elite Daasin Guard. On Kitara's urging, Gray rescues "Salamander", her top spy, from prison in Esiador. Celese speaks with the Young elemental Lords of the Wild Folk realm. She plans a huge hailstorm with them. An Undead Lord to the Rescue. As Adunathel snoops around Gost Arnan in her ethereal body she is stunned and abducted by the Black Chapter for interrogation ;- The Black Chapter know very little about what is happening. A few years ago they were the power in Gost Arnan. What niggles them is how someone killed King Orin without consulting them first. Resigned to being tortured and then killed Adunathel remains her normal diplomatic self, throwing countless insults at her captors. But to her surprize, someone actually comes to rescue her. Tibus - Lord of the Undead smashes his way into her cell, picks her up, smashes his way through several thick doors and delivers her to freedom. When she awakens, she finds herself back at the Palace with Tibus nowhere to be seen.
24/7	Lord Taraino is rescued from the headsman's block but no one notices as Mercy replaces his body with a perfectly rendered illusion. Celese's hailstorm hits Beleg Thaarna's army in Uncus' valley. A lot of people are seriously injured. Shanna begins escorting Princess Arilanne to Gost Arnan. Elsewhere, the Spirits of Orion descend upon Caer Kemmel like Angels of Doom beginning a reign of terror. The Esian army under the command of Foleas Thorn is attacked on the river Caricus by a giant sea beast - summoned up by Istar of the Crucible. 3 boats are sunk (20 men killed) and Sir Ellis of Silver Keep eaten alive.
26/7	Celese captures Broteus - Spirit of Orion in a series of Astral wards. Broteus goes beserk but cannot escape. In the end, Celese and Ross manage to extract an oath from it to leave Caer Kemmel alone.
27/7	The Ceremony of Mourning in Gost Arnan for King Orin and Princess Yisselda.
28/7	Celese conjures strong winds to speed Foleas and his boats to Caer Kemmel. Aduna and Shanna foil an attack by the Monarch on Princess Arilanne - next in line for the Yarilian throne. But the Monarch exacts a price from Shanna, leaving her at "death's door", minus a hand. Later that day, her priorities in order, Aduna orders 105 stators worth of new clothes.
29/7	Ashar appears Aduna meets Ashar for the first time at Lady Leanne's party. She finds him strangely magnetic.
30/7	The attack on Caer Kemmel commences Beleg arrives at Caer Kemmel with his army and immediately attacks. But things don't go well for the Black Elf when Tempest the Raven leaps off of Caer Kemmel's wall and takes down Lord Gedarius and Isperides the Black Zealot with an enormous fireball. In retaliation, Beleg lashes out with his own magic, destroying one of Raven's arms. Tempest just manages to make it back to the safety of the wall where Mercy struggles to keep him alive and restore his arm. He remains in shock for the rest of the conflict as Spirits of Orion plague him, trying to drive him mad. Beleg summons the Lia Kavair - a giant Beholder eye that can drive people mad with its gaze. Such is the creatures power that before it is banished, it puts Torin of Silver Keep and the Lady Mercy into coma's. Note - Though orin was its target, Mercy followed Torin's mind down into unconsciousness in an attempt to save him.
31/7	The Battle for Caer Kemmel begins in earnest. The Resistance keep landing Hethcanter's bridge inside Beleg's army. As the bridge cannot be detected the Resistance launch quick hit and run attacks deep within the Black Elf's forces. It isn't long before Hethcanter's calculations and a bit of luck land the bridge close enough to Beleg for a direct attack. The Resistance swarm upon the Black Elf with Ross taking the lead. Using the Merlendy nail to drive away the Spirit's of Orion and the Triskelle of Dagnoth to take down Sama Sama - Beleg's "Dark Elf possessed" metal golem, Ross and his companions slay Beleg's physical body. However before Ross can cut the heartstone from Beleg's chest, the Spirit's of Orion band together and just manage to whisk Beleg away to safety. Ross is not pleased. Especially when he and Hethcanter almost come to blows, arguing over the magical items they've captured.
32/7	The Spirit of Orion - Iphitus, causes cracks to appear in Caer Kemmel's walls.
1/8	North and Gray arrive in Tir Irisil, the Moon Mountains. There they meet the elves, Artagel and Roxanne.
2/8	Sable Anne, ambassador of Elandia, visits Valadan. North escapes the elves with Gray's help, taking a prisoner as he leaves. Gray takes the prisoner, Tievus of Tir Irisil to Kitara who glamour's (illusions) herself as an elf to question him. Alyx experiences a moment of divine intervention in New Risen - Daya. She comes away from the experience with renewed purpose.

3/8	Beware, Demogorgon cometh Celese and Ross are in the city of Caer Kemmel - Yarili. Four of the Spirits of Orion attack the city in anger at Beleg's defeat. Celese travels astrally to investigate them but gets attacked herself. As the Spirits of Orion are in their natural astral environment, Celese has to flee before they trap her and hurtle her thousands of miles away (which would cause her astral cord to snap and damn her soul to forever drift the astral plane). One of the Spirits throws a fireball at Ross whilst another hurls foul insults. North and his Daasin troops arrive in Caer Kemmel's bay on 4 warships to assist. Lord Talwan loses an eye in the fighting whilst General Wester is shot dead by an stray arrow. Celese uses the Fire folk to spread random fires through the enemy camp. Suddenly set upon by the annoying Spirits of Orion she is forced to defend herself and trade astral blows. Under Istar's guidence, the Crucible of Magic finish a 6 day long ritual to summon Demogorgon from her imprisonment. The Demonic two headed she-dragon appears in the distance. The whole city shakes as the four legged dragon marches its 200 ton body towards Caer Kemmel's walls. When it gets within range, it unleashes its two devastating breath weapons of fire and ice to melt, freeze and crack the walls, before ploughing its way in and destroying everything in its sight. Totally mad and virtually unstoppable, Demogorgon wades out into Caer Kemmel's bay and begins sinking boats full of troops. As the poor hapless soldiers fall into the water, the Demonic dragon freezes them into floating blocks of ice or melts them into thick oily sludge. Ross runs out into the water and using his telekinetic hand, tries banishing the creature back from whence it came using his Blue Sword. But the demon shrugs off the attempt and carries on. With only one chance left, North runs out into the water and strikes the Demo-Dragon with his sword, Need. Need casts a powerful banishment spell against the Dragon and Demo-gorgan, with a screech shrill enough to shatter glass, is pulled by its giant magical binding chains, to vanish back into its rift. Unable to believe what he has just seen, Istar teleports himself directly to Caer Kemmel. When he arrives he throws an enormous lightning bolt at General North who after defeating Demogorgon, shrugs it off. He threatens North, threaten Ross and then realizing just how precarious his position is, surrounded by such powerful and dangerous enemies with none of his allies around him, Istar utters his Word of Recall and returns to the Castle of Evil. When he gets back he slaughters a lot of Goblins and Doomalkim just to calm his nerves. That night Ross heads over to North's boat to celebrate their victory over Demogorgon. Eskanu rings the dinner bell Alyx, Aran etc receive a strange dream from Eskanu. This dream goes out to all those carrying traces of Eskanu's blood in their heritage and involves blood - lots of blood. It is Eskanu's mind attempting to summon the Dayan people to their doom. Terrified by what the dream may foretell, Alyx seeks comfort from Gray. Gray says, "It's not over till the fat lady sings!" An hour later, the Doman (while dreamshifting) ends up being flung around by several Immortals only to end up near the Ancient Pillar of Rasalon.
4/8	The Monarch cometh The Yarilian army arrives by sea at Caer Kemmel. 3000 men under Lord Roic of Tolstall, Lord Aimar of Tyne, Lord Efrates of Timber and Lord Lian of the Hope Isles. Another banquet celebrating Demogorgon's defeat is held at Caer Kemmel's castle. Foleas, General Brook and General Ronsel attend. After the party Foleas, North and Ross are traveling back to their quarters when out of nowhere pounces the Monarch - (The most lethal of assassins hired by Istar of the Crucible.) Within seconds Foleas is killed, Ross is injured to the point of death and North is nearly killed too. Only North's inhuman strength, the Blue Sword's ability of parrying and Celese's timely intervention with her Wild Folk of fire drives the Monarch away (The Monarch refuses to be injured - even the slightest scratch shows him his defenses are flawed - forcing him to retreat and reconsider tactics.) The Monarch flees down the corridor covering his tracks with smoke. When he is safely away he pulls out his mirror-fragment and mirror-jumps back to his secret base under Evost Derry. Ross gives himself to Law Suspended at the point of death, Ross finds himself confronted by Luaci - Lord of Law. Luaci says, "I have it within my power to preserve your life, but you must follow me. You must give yourself entirely to Law or I can do nothing. If you do, I have a Quest for you, a Quest to find all the Elven Star Stones." Not keen on the alternative - death, Ross accepts and finds himself standing above Foleas's body with a strange diamond shaped mark on his forehead. (Note - This mark is the mark of the Star Stones. As prophesied, the bearer of this mark will reunite the stones within the Star Crown and restore balance to the elven houses.) Ross uses one of Dina's resurrection seeds to restore Foleas to life. North gets down on his knees and swears upon Need to slay the Monarch and all that he stands for. An oath that will eventually take North far to the west, to the lands of Sardium and the island of Sevekar. 10pm Laylak dark portal's to Evost Derry. Once inside the King's Castle he bursts into Kildarken's quarters, taking the Paladin of Emonra completely by surprise. Before Kildarken can reach his flaming mace, Laylak obliterates him into an unrecognizable greasy smear with a dark ball. The following morning Kildarken's blackened naked body is seen hanging from the Castle's flag pole with the circle of Orin branded on his chest, his fire mace no where to be seen. North and Ross organize a complete sweep search of Caer Kemmel castle. The search uncovers more of the Monarch's Apt's - skilled assassins seeded inside the Castle to kill various generals and Lords. During the night Ross receives a visitation from Sir Hereldane of Bon Dure - in Lanth. Heraldane recognizes the Blue Sword and pledges the allegiance of Knight's of Rouse to Ross' cause.
5/8	Sire Toby of the Red Hand Vanguard meets with Adunathel. The Vanguard call in a favor from Silver Keep in their Quest to recover the Crown of the Mother. General Iristan and 4 more Yarilian Lords arrive at Caer Kemmel by land. They bring another 1200 soldiers with them (if a little late). By now Beleg's army has dispanded but the Yarilian's are continuing to chase them down. As the Dayan people (lured by Eskanu's dreams) head south en-mass to Mount Deon in Ulakhan, expecting to find their New God waiting with open arms, Gray and Alyx round up the only remaining Dayan Holy men and women to chase after them.
6/8	Sky and Sir Ulmir kill one of the Monarch's Apts who jumps out on them from a chimney. Sky blasts the assassin in the chest with a lightning bolt. North also kills one of the Apts in his bedroom, after the black clothed assassin performs some dazzling acrobatics. Various people, Ross, North, Foleas etc are awarded the Yarilian Medal of Honor. Bo of Leah miscarriages in the "Trekker's Tale Inn". Adunathel uses Angel Heart to save Bo and her child.
7/8	Ross and North track another Apt down to a dead end corridor. The Apt runs up the walls, somersaults over them and out of a window. Halfway between floors the assassin is shot down by a guard. Even so, after a fifty foot fall the Apt survives and attempts to escape until North is forced to kill him. Aduna Unknowingly receives a visitation from the Immortal - Saint Kessik of Rian who heals her wounds. When she awakens she is completely baffled by her good health. Later that day Aduna and Ashar have an in-depth conversation that results in Ashar asking "If you want him dead," meaning Marduke of Wake, "I shall do it. I shall kill him now." Ashar doesn't hang around, leaving straight away to where he knows Marduke will be. Like an angel of death Ashar walks up to the powerful Draconian spiritualist and crushes the man's will with his own, before running him through with his rapier. Then, giving himself over to the moment, Ashar kills Marduke's ally, Lord Hans of Tiver before handing himself over to the guard and allowing himself to be beaten and imprisoned. Adunathel, utterly confused by Ashar's behavior goes to visit him in prison. He refuses to help so she leaves him there, unable to come to terms with her mixed feelings for him. North crushes yet another Apt of the Monarch.
8/8	Tryst Souldeed and his companions volunteer to join the Resistance. Mercy and Torin recover from their coma's.
9/8	Ross trains with Lt. Darryn.
10/8	Celese and Ross visit the Wildfolk. When they have a quiet moment together Celese tells Ross she is pregnant;- Ross is (as you would expect) overjoyed - remembering Cruesa's vision of twins from last Erintide. Whilst there in the Wild Folk Realm, Ross learns he was once, in a past life, Prince Ciriant Sher of the Elves of Alinor. To celebrate their impending twins, Rune and Sher (the Lord's of Earth and Water) bestow a magical Lyre and magical Bow upon them as gifts.
11/8	In their private little war against the Death Watch of Orin, the Spirits of Akilla - Foe and Edge, kill another 10 of the spiritual enemy whilst exploring the Catacombs.
12/8	Liele of Emonra is declared guilty of conspiring with Laylak in Esiador. She is executed within the hour and publicly burned by Emonra's holy fire.
13/8	During a conversation with Adunathel, her holyness Aia of Luna (of the Gost Arnan Order) suddenly keels over dead from a heart attack. Aduna cannot believe her bad luck.
14/8	Alyx and the Holy men and women of Daya are still riding south to Mount Deon. On the way they encounter 170 Ulaks that have died under mysterious circumstances. Traveling with Alyx are ;- Asala of Akaila, Eamer of Lluthe, Lessa of Aslade, Herin of Thand, Kirina of Berle, Severese of Selena and Kalahn of Hemera.
15/8	A Titan Reborn. Eskanu arises Midnight. Eskanu completes her own ressurection when 300 entranced Dayans are sacrificed to her on Mount Deon in Ulakhan. The Dayan's blood flows down and over Eskanu's recently recovered bones, aiding the magical recreation of muscles, tendons and internal organs. At the height of the ritual Eskanu's skull, covered in a thin slick layer of skin and freshly formed scales rises high above the crowd of assembled Dayan's at the mountain's base. Blood begins raining down upon the entire area, upon Eskanu and upon the Dayans, from a blood red sky. As it strikes the ground, those touched by it begin screaming in madness, falling to their knees and clutching their heads, their minds filled with Eskanu's aweful presence. Eskanu's wyverns sit, perched atop the Mountain in a circle around Eskanu's reanimated bones. When Gray runs up the steps they fail to notice him or his spirits - a fact that Gray doesn't realize until it is too late. Just then a horde of concealed Ulaks charge out of a hiding place at the base of the Mountain's steps. The Ulaks begin slaughtering the remaining 3,500 defenceless Dayan's turning the event into a complete blood bath. Herin of Thand uses an Artifact called "The Shield of Dawn" to advance the night and bring the first light of day. By doing this, Eskanu's ritual killing is interrupted and the She-Titan soars into the sky, expanding as she does so to the size and consistency of several massive clouds before vanishing. Gray believes Eskanu has gone to attack Elondil - Heaven. He isn't far wrong. Among those Dayan's slain are Aslan (not the demi-god), Aorl, Loxanna, Rudila, Seshen and Shilvay, Rule and Reena. Alyx passes out. Gray carries her from the area and to safety. Ashar takes Aduna on a trip to Khurdir. Aduna is amazed at how different Khur is - especially how the people of Khur deal with spirits. As they walk around, Ashar admits that he was born and raised in Khurdir, a long time ago.
16/8	Gray and Foe travel to Ghaumaurd to rescue Rombhard from 2 troglodyte torturers. They find the strange enchanter the worse for wares after his long ordeal - it's been months after all. Not only has he been tortured, wracked and dissected but he has also been emasculated. Gray power strikes the two trogs and shifts Rombhard back to Kitara's palace. The Queen shows Rombhard a lot of compassion and also gets very interested in his methods of enchantment. Later when Alyx recovers from her ordeal at Mount Deon, Gray says, "The fat lady has sung, Alyx." His words reduce Alyx into a flood of tears. As the Ulak's are celebrating their victory over the Dayan's, Gray mounts a counterstrike to take back the Dayan magic items. With the spirits Foe, Edge and Sun at his side, the High Doman of Wan kicks some Ulak ass. On their continuing trip around Eldahar, Ashar and Aduna arrive at Weyren City in Weyr. There they meet the young dragon Yuekra and witness a Knight attempting to kill it.
