Within an open field rest a pillar of oaken wood. The alter stands high above the ground as if the importance of such a construct demanded an audience that looms just below it. The Jakalorn culture has deep roots with the goddess of the blight. The blight is heaven to the Jakalorn and building a pyre to the unending sky is the way to pay respect when a member of the ruling clan perishes. At the very point of the wooden tower rest a bed in the shape of the Jakalorn insignia and upon that wooden bed is the body of the king's first and only born; Varick. On the ground level of the plain is Malakai and his beloved Ellensandria. Behind him are a plethora of other dark elves to show their respects. The help from the castle like the masonry and other slaves. Other scouts that were in Varick's unit are there as well along with other soldiers. Malakai holds a torch in his hand while everyone else has a rose. Roses are the payment for Fae and the fire is the method of travel. The sun burns brig

    The cell blocks are located just along the southern border of Kales. Its shapely outline is made like a circle of stone. Within the inside of the circle are multiple steel cages that are welded tightly with the rock outer layer, but the landscape does not stop there. Going inwards, there is another stone circle close to the welded cages and on the other side of that wall are more cages. This structure repeats sixteen times until it gets to a foothold in the middle where all the guards live, sleep, and do their work. Most of the cages are filled with criminals that have broken the king's laws. There is a mix of crimes such as murders, thieves, and rapists, but also smaller-time offenders like petty thieves and speaking out and denouncing the king. All who even dare speak ill will about the boy king of Kales are doomed to live the rest of their days within the steel cages. Among those inmates is the captain that has been long since forgotten, Salavanta. Even though she is a one-of-a-k

    The cold wind bellows within the early night. Shivering sensations reap within the tired bones of the traveling trio that rides to the blackened and fallen kingdom. With the sensation of the cold draft comes the frosty rain. Droplets pillage the abyssal knight’s armor. On impact, the water retaliates by splashing along other parts of the metal suits but then dissipating altogether with the soil of a grassy and plain field. The smell of the coming storm wiggles the nose of the lead rider, Scar. It is a talent to smell a storm before the weathering entity hits the land in which he is in. Like most old, season orc, warriors, he is no stranger to war caught in the eye of the storm, in fact, he embraced it. The creature has fond memories of fighting inside a storm for that battlefield signified the end of the beginning, or some might say the beginning of the end. In the distance, the warrior's eyes fall upon the kingdom that never was meant to be and it makes his skin crawl. His seasoned a

    The smell of the crisp waves at sea flows up into the air and waivers between the noses of men and women alike. The Circle is a place with uncharted mystery and a domain where only the truly evil resides in the dark below. Its three pillars float within the sky itself like most massive lands within sky world. These columns are thick enough to house the people that call the three floating islands home. All three of the stations are made from rock but crafted in a cytometrical way. The bottom of the pillars is sharp, pointy, and small while going upward, the column becomes wider with more and more space. Beneath the foundation of each rest a stormbellow that constantly is in a state of movement, preventing the oddly shaped fortifications to fall into the black abyss sea that it hovers over. All three rock, man-made pillars are connected with one another by bridges; three in total. The first fort helms the living space of the Circle and education quarters. The lower levels, just above t

    In the trenches of the wildlands rest the young and old dark elves that stave the darkness at bay. Creatures of all sorts have been more active ever since the war ushered by King Malakai. It is as if the forest itself wages the war against the dark elves. The giant tranches separate the land between the dark elves both Lorn and Jakalorn from the plague that runs ramped throughout the forest. The trench system stretches for what seems like endlessly and is crafted in a zig-zag formation so that the enemy cannot attack one end since there could be many ends at play. The maze-like fortification is about two miles in depth to accommodate the size of the soldiers. Inside the walls are multiple hovels that are built to house the soldiers so they may have a place to eat, sleep, and live in. These indents within the walls are labeled by squad names. There are many types of teams in the Line, but only a few are special forces. A group of dark elves that operate behind enemy lines, in this case,

    The drifting wind among sails lashes with the sheer force of nature. The leather sails ripple with and dance with the oncoming draft and fill the ears of all who may be listening upon the floating ship. One that belongs to the King herself; Salavanta. The proud-standing redhead wears her signature trench coat and underneath that vile worn and torn coat is a white cloth long sleeve cotton shirt and high capris that match the same brown as most of her clothes. Both of her pistoles are strapped on each side of her outer thighs at about knee level. On the right side of her hip is a sheathed ripper that is abnormally long and just above that is a short sword defender that is sheathed on her right side just above the first weapon. Her arms fold just under her bust and with those green orbs of hers she looks out onto her ship from the head deck. She sees men working on the boat, a small crew of people but ones that are devoted to the crew for the past five years. There are a few men who swee

    There is heat within the room of Leon’s domain. One that forces his body heat to quiver with sheer and utter delight. So much so that shivers not of coldness or brittleness but of soaring power spark down his spine. That is the sensation of how he feels once inside his favorite masonry. A right hand brings down to the lower back of Robin’s back. The submissive man’s back is covered in claw marks which turns that pale, toned flesh of his to a peachy red color. Even so, that did not stop his nails from digging into the man’s skin while his boney hips bash into Robin’s backside making his bubbly rear jiggle in a rhythmic motion. Both of them share a lustful and peering moan that travels throughout the empty space of the room. Leon’s right-hand grips the sheets of the cot that both men are on. Between his fingers he clings to the black blanket, pulling upon it which forces his body to impale Robin’s even harder than once before. Flesh mesh together as if they are one person molding with t

The workshop of the circle provides a clearer and consist learning experience.

    The dreadknot crash site is like the mix of nature coiling around the broken metals and glass shards that made up the massive ship. Even though the giant ship is still in one piece and broken down, there are points of the vessel that are ripped off that make the crash sites foundation. Teal grass and vines circle around each piece of metal, trying to drag down the material that is separated from the ship within the core of the island, however the foreign material keeps the minerals a float and instead of sinking down like everything else, the land is corotating with the dreadknot itself as well as the debris that is spread out. On top of the huge worn and torn ship is a group of orcish people. There is a fire that is burning in the middle of the controlled deck of the dreadknot.

    Winds of the cultivating Sky World spread like a rabid fire unchained by men or monsters, but these winds provide the sale of Salavanta’s ship. The stormbellow of the cloaked ship roars with the coming rain. Sounds of both elements mix and mash together like harmony gushing over a waterfall. The Translucent Sun is a one-of-a-kind ship made to cloak and under this ability birth from the arcane and technology, the ship moves faster by keeping the stormbellow at just enough power to float and turning the jets off. With the wind and rain picking up in the air, it is easy for the ship to travel faster within Sky World, but even more impressive is how silent the vessel is without the use of extra power propulsion and bare minimum gravitational support. A lot of the time the Sun moves over multiple ships without being detected this also made it hard for pending loyalists to find and capture the pirates that are on board. For there are a finite of people on the Translucent Sun. First, Salavan
