So Sayth the King

Lords and ladies, as you may be aware, the scouting expedition I recently sent out to hunt for the remnants of our… wolfish… adversaries has not returned. I received a letter not but a few hours ago from one of my scouts that he and his entire party had been wiped out by a band of so-called “Warboys”. Good citizens, like you, I desire nothing more than rest after our latest escapades. I am tired …

Rise of the Warboys – April 2016

Twas a wonderful day to be in Italy. Jonathan Isadel stood there on the seashore. He breathed in the salty sea air, savoring the morning breeze. The cool sand felt good beneath his toes, the mists hung above the water making it look like liquid silver, or silver glass as his father liked to call it on a day like this.

The Land As I See It

Ahhh, peace and plenty. This is why we love Falton. The beautiful countryside, friendly neighbors, plenty of land to raise our crops, plenty of work for an honest explorer. Surely this peace will last forever. You know the saying, “I am a warrior, so my son can be a farmer, so his son can be an artist.” Perhaps it is time to pound our swords into plowshares.
