Shalunist: As you travel your people are ambushed by a small group of 10 Naga that traveled upriver killing 20 fighters before they are cut down but otherwise get to there destination.

Horde of the Vale reaches there destination in an uneventful trip but when they get there they would find a rather odd looking stone circle seeming to radiate power

Opus Herd: they would find that 5 of the ancient ones could read the magic book begin studying the secrets of druidism while they find that the staff was just a conduit to enhance the Goblins power over a magic he already knew

Blood moon Tribe: The Blood moon tribes attack on the spire surprised the naga giving them no time to react and there small number was destroyed while the staff wielder fled into the spire and upon chasing her into the spire where met with 2 Naga near twice the others size wielding large metal blades, the Neko shields and spears help for a short time but eventually broke and started to take casualties in the end they brought them down and continued chasing the witch only to find her atop the spire casting some ritual  which when interrupted turned her and the things on her person to ash except the onyx skull that topped her staff it would still give of the green glow

Total casualties

60 Warriors were lost in the battle for the spire

SHALUNIST CUSTOS

The Custos mourn their fallen brothers and sisters, and build them a large funeral pyre in their honor. Each is named, as the fire consumes their bodies. They set up camp a couple hundred feet from the pyre. There is a meeting held, and one of the Custos reading the books reports that he has discovered a way to preserve food for longer periods from his book. The trick is spread about by the people. Most of the group goes to sleep, however three rotations of 60 Custos (so 20 per rotation) are told to watch over the camp, in case of attack. A plan is prepared, so the Custos may continue to move on.

ACTIONS

1. Arcus continues studying the book.

2. 20 Custos continue reading through the history books, in a random order. ((MOD))

3. The Custos continue walking, not willing to settle near someplace they lost so many. ((MOD))((RED LINE))

The Horde of the Vale

 

Duungrim looks upon the Stone Circle with odd but distrusting curiosity "Avoid it for now." he turns ordering him men about "We make Camp! Begin construction for our temporary spacings. Then onto the gathering, we will need much lumber to settle this land." He joins his men in gathering supplies for the creation of the first Orcish Settlement. He marches with his men to the woods, as they get to work he orders his orcish scouts to secure the perimeter and scout nearby for any other peoples or possible sources of food or resources.

The men in charge of the Great Boars begin construction of a large pen to keep them in, as a few men dedicate themselves to taming the beasts in the long run.

Actions.

1. Construction of Orcish Settlement is underway, it will be many moons before such a great feat is accomplished but they will see it through. (10 Posts)

2. The Soldiers of Duungrim are put to work in creating a better and more fitting variant of the Buckler to create the first Orcish Shields. (4 Posts)

3. Several Orcs dedicate themselves to becoming true Beastmasters, a name they will have to earn in time as they begin with the Wild Boars in an attempt to breed them.

4. Scouts are sent out to secure the perimeter immediatly surrounding the encampment.

Blood Moon Tribe

With the Naga threat eliminated, the soldiers are ordered to gather up any and all weapons that the naga's had used in the fight while also taking the staff with the glowing onyx skull back to the elder chambers, any injured soldiers would also be carried back and burials being done for those who lost their lives in the battle. Meanwhile they send a group of soldiers and some of the more smarter citizens to explore the spire to find something of use inside it (Mod <---). Meanwhile with the battle finished, the tribes trying to regrow their population and army back to its original strength and the soldiers trained further on combat. With the Onyx skull tipped staff in the hands of the temple priestesses, research goes into trying to figure out the purpose of the staff while the priestess who was given the magic of conjuration continues to train to hone her abilities to the best she can do, summoning wolves mainly or a hawk.

~Research~

Mining continues in the hills around the tribes (2 more posts)

Development on a better range weaponry continues (12 more posts)

The attempt at taming some of the island native animals is put into effect as it is brought up to the council's ( Mod plz )

Wild Walkers

 

On the edge of the Sea of Ares, Prince Arslan continues his tour of the holdings his people control. The vaulters, once a populous people which spanned the north was reduced to a tiny slimmer through decades of constant warring which let to a massive loss of most of their technological advances. 

Through diplomacy and a general consensus for peace, those that remained united under the prince which ruled from his coastal city of Pars. Just shy of his twentieth birthday, the prince had proclaimed the forthcoming of a new era of peace and prosperity for the Wild Walkers of Pars.

It only remained to be seen if the future would spell the end of the once great people, or its salvation.

 

 

Population

345 Vaulters

155 Vaulter Warriors

Prince Arslan would continue the tradition of technocracy within his lands, seeking to appoint those more fit and knowledgeable into the ranks of his advisors and other key leadership positions. 

 

Research on Naval Vessels(???)

Keen on exploration in both land and sea, knowledge on naval craft would be actively looked for. 

 

Expansion(???)

Scouts would be send in various directions, actively searching for rumoured scattered groups of Vaulters residing in the area around Pars. All vaulters would be told and invited to their last Capital. 

Expedition(???)

A force of three dozen warriors would be put together into an expeditionary brigade known as the First Royal Brigade, setting off from the Capital to go north along Shield River.

Event Post:

The Dragons bring all of the nations representatives to the top of a mountain in the crags being met by three dragons each dragon agrees that direct intervention is not yet needed but they will offer each one question to advance the world.

Horde of the Vale: How may we gather food without hunting or foraging so we may settle lands?

Opus Herd: How May we become one with nature?

Wild Wanderers: How may we cross the water safely?

Shalunist: What kinds of magic are there in this world

Blood Moon Tribe: How can I make this material the Naga used?

The Dragons give the group the basics of Farming, How to build Durable rafts for travel in water, The basics of smithing and mining, They tell of stories of magic taught by dragons themselves to mortals as well as the arcane although they give no specifics just that they hold power, and that To become one with nature one must simply do as there hearts tell them

At that 2 other dragons would fly down each person at the meeting riding a different colored dragon back to there people the dragon stating that if the need is dire his own nest will rise to defend them from the Naga and the Naga alone

Dragon Color

Horde of the Vale: Red

Wild Wanderers: Blue

Blood Moon tribe: White

Mod Post:

Wild Wanderers: The Scouts would bring back news of small tribe of ogres making there way south

Blood Moon Tribe: Iron ore has begun being dug up at the mine and the smiths meanwhile start to set up their smithys (2Posts) The onyx Skull staff would start to call out to the arcane magic users in the area tempting them to wield the staff the priestess resists the call for now

Horde of the Vale: Scouts report a group of 40 Naga making camp just to the east of the camp, The beast master manage to begin breaking the boars for domestication (10 Posts)

Shalunist: The scouts would give the all clear to move but as they reach there destination the ground beneath them would collapse the whole of the people being dropped into ruins made of a similar material to the last ones

SHALUNIST CUSTOS

As the people walk, a large, black creature lands in front of them. At first, the Custos people arm themselves, prepared to fight, until they see a lone Custos walking towards them. Arcus is pulled to the front of the group, and the entire group rushes to meet her. Lyra Drake-Path has returned. There is much cheering as she returns to them. She tells them of the meeting, and what she had learned. The naga, while a threat, were not immediate a problem for them, and that if they become so, the Black Dragon's nest would send support against the naga. She told them what the Dragon meeting had shared with them. How to plant food, how to build rafts, how to find, and work metals to make stronger tools and weapons, as well as a vague explanation of magic of this world. She also explained that she saw four other races at the meeting. A group called "Orcs," which are almost as tall as the Custos; A group of adorable cat-people, called "Felicians"; a group of people called "Viscosa", which grow stone skin, later in life; and a race called "Vaulters" which had soft flesh, and natural tattoos.

She also explained that while she had been flying with the dragon, she had seen the ocean glow bright green. Everyone was worried at this, because the ocean they know did no such thing. She explained that she had also seen a some large plains just past a forest the people would be coming up to soon. The people discussed it, and decided that they would settle there, and finally lay down roots, once more.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Arcus and Lyra walked, talking about what had happened to each of them, the ground beneath the entire group collapses beneath them, and everyone falls into ruins, similar to the once they had already found. After a quick check to make sure no one was hurt, they begin to search through the ruins, looking for anything of use, as well as a way out. Arcus and Lyra both step up, and take parties out searching. A third Custos, named Yrda took a third group, also to look for anything interesting, and the way out. Yrda, hoping to follow Arcus, and Lyra in receiving her last name, planned on being the one to find something interesting, so she prioritized that, over finding an escape.

ACTIONS

1. Lyra and Acrus each take 20 Custos to search for anything interesting, as well as a way out. ((MOD))

2. Yrda takes 25 Custos, and begins searching for anything of interest in the ruins. ((MOD))

3. 20 Custos continue researching the History books. ((MOD))

The Horde of the Vale

Thralm returns with his Kobold to the camp and town that is under construction. Duungrim meets him and the Kobold outside "Ah! Finally, I trust all went well.."

Blood Moon Tribes

When the soldier sent with the dragon came back, the people weren't expecting him to come back with such grand information, the knowledge of how to use the newly found ore soon named iron and how to create rafts that float on water which would prove very useful and how to refine their farming method's, all VERY useful. Soon all these changes take effect, men moving in and out of the mines for the iron while the smithy's are set up in each city, two of them in the capital for increased out put while the knowledge of the other races becomes apparent people wonder where they are and how strong they are. Meanwhile, the tribes continue to work on expanding and growing, stockpiling food for the winters and for the chance to create a new village while the Capital continues to be reformed and fixed up, trade and goods being abundant as the Princess and the Elders decide the age of prosperity and industrialization should be now, shops being created and the military and workforce increasing, trying to create iron weaponry while also sharing with the civilians of the tribes. The knowledge of rafts was already close to well known, the master builders point many flaws out of this kinda knowledge being pretty useless for the needs of the tribes but they make use of it, plans are laid out and the attempt at creating a smallish fishing boat ( http://imgur.com/YU6cB7n ) along with a sort of net to catch fish in the water off the coast.

~ Research and Construction ~

The attempt at creating a smallish fishing boat is planned and given to the builders to try and figure the building plans out (Mod plz) - Research

The Production of Iron weaponry begins in the new smithy's (Mod plz) -Construction

Work begins on growing the villages and the Capital to keep up with the growth of the populations, thought of creating a new village growing in the tribes, New building styles beings done from simple huts to nice looking houses. (mod plz for reformation of the three villages/and the capital) - Major Construction Project

Opus Herd

 

With the return of Ake, the Chosen a large home was carved from stone; forming a home for what would now be considered the head of their race. The champion returned with the Dragon's answer, to which the Ascendants bowed their heads; some of the newborns left in confusion. This philosophy of following your heart is passed down to the newest of Viscosa, guiding them along with the understanding of the land. 

 

With the rise in numbers new homes were carved from the ground and stone; intricate tunnels spinning like a web from the original dig site. They were all interconnected, a system of openness becoming the norm among all Viscosa. What would be one's own belongings in another tribe would be considered wholly the race's, interpreting the "follow your heart" mentality as the heart being the people's entirety, and that all of them should follow it in unity. 

 

Over the rest of the time the five Ascendants whom knew how to interpret the found text would study it in solitude beneath the ground; stalagmites and stalactites spreading the humid and dank air across the three as they sat and read all they could. On top of that, two of them began to look more into the language itself, trying to discern what they could into a full language more specific than the common tongue. All of them worked together, intertwining their thoughts into a puzzle-like scheme. 

 

Otherwise times went on per usual, the Newborns reproducing and the Ascendants keeping their prying eyes over whatevr studies kept them. Farms were harvested to sustain the peoples and with time, help them grow. 

 

Actions

 

1. 3/5 Druidic Ascendants further study the secrets of Druidism.

 

2. 2/5 Druidic Ascendants further the study of the Druidic Language.

 

3. 100/135 Asendants teach Newborns of philosophy and language, hoping to increase the intelligence of generations to come.

 

4. 35/135 Ascendants study Asmund to improve upon their past knowledge.

 

5. 100/440 Newborns remain in comatose within the Earth.

 

6. 140/440 Newborns proceed to farm, adding 40 more onto the growing crops.

 

7. 200/440 Newborns proceed to expand the tunnels and build more homes out of stone underground, undergoing a large project.

Wild Walkers 

The information shared by the dragon was marred by troubling news, for the first royal brigade informs the people of pars of an approaching ogre group. Prince Arslan immediately orders an army to be assembled, marching north with a force of about a hundred experienced vaulter warriors. Using the information learnt from his scouts, Prince Arslan would set up an ambush on all sides for the ogre group.

 

His strategy will be simple, he will first attempt to communicate with the ogres. Summoning his army from their positions if the ogres becomes hostile.

The Wild Walkers will not be daunted. 

 

 

Meanwhile, more research is done on naval crafts as the researches of Pars seek to have a breakthrough, now aided with some knowledge from the dragons. ( Mod req)

 

Resettling and population recruitment continues for the wild walkers.( Mod req)

Shalunist: The group sent to look for an exit to the ruins find a way out but nothing else of interest. The group sent to search for interesting things in the ruins find a Large stone circle deep within the ruins. The scholars reading the books find nothing of interest

Horde of the Vale: The Kobalds would accept the offer saying that there dragon left to go protect some cat people and offer the Orcs access to there tribes village as there own and Drahk'Jul the chief of the Koblads offer a book inscribed with several runes for his people to try to read for his can not ((Kobald Village added as territory of the Horde will PM an updated map)) The Orcs that step into the circle are engulfed ion a blue light and they appear in a circle of the same make but not where they were before, Further investigation shows that all they had to do was have everyone walk out and back in to get back but it came out onto a coast somewhere in the world

Blood Moon Tribe: The builders begin designing a fishing vessel (5 posts), Iron Weaponry will be made the standard in 10 posts until then the 75 swords are all they have for iron weapons The reconstruction begins (15 Posts)

Opus Herd: The Ancient ones would slowly begin to decipher more and more of the language and of the magic book, The study Asmund would reviel quite plainly that like iron it is an ore that might be able to be used with the knowledge of smithing gained from the dragons The expansion o living space starts ((5 Posts))

Wild Walkers: The Wild walkers research into boat would pay off with the knowledge from the dragons they figure out a way to make a raft capable of carrying near 20 men and can be put into production soon ((5 Posts)) The Ogres would be near an hours walk from the Wild walkers setting up camp

Shalunist Collective

Arcus's Team comes across an exit to the outside. As he rushes back, he comes across Ydra's team.

Arcus: Hey, Yrda, we found an entrance.

Yrda: Really? Glad someone found something. The most we found was this circle of stones.

Arcus: Hey, you'll get a last name someday. Don't worry about it.

Together, Arcus and Yrda's team return to the camp, and wait for Lyra's team to return, before passing on the good news. The researches were unable to find anything of interest. Grateful to Arcus, the Custos begin making their way out of the ruins, and moving on, heading towards what they hope will be their new home.

ACTIONS

1. The Custos continue walking towards their destination. ((MOD))

2. The Researchers continue to read through the history books. ((MOD))
