AnonymousAlexa 3877 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2023 THE SUN SETS TWICE By the Authority and Will of the King of Norland Issued on, 2nd of Caedric’s Kindling 464 Age of Stifled Flame TO THE PEOPLE OF SÓLHEIM, On the 14th of Caedric’s Kindling, a group of bandits, Frostbeards by the stunted look of them, harassed the loyal Farian. Responding to this threat, the proven Red Cloaks swiftly assembled once again, heeding the call to action, led by none other than King Balon himself. With the death of one of their comrades, the Frostbeards lost their nerve. Two of the brigands left a third to die to the Red Cloaks. This Dwarf, in traditional Frostbeard fashion, ran to the nearest body of water to pretend to be a duck, yet in the salt and brine, he met his watery fate. All was well, the brigands easily being pushed from Norlandic Soil, yet the Frostbeards demanded retribution. Marching en masse to the capital of Norland, the Fortress City of Vjardengrad. The bells rang, the horns blew, and the Red Cloaks rallied, accompanied by a host of Nevaehlen warriors. The Frostbeards sent in a spy to the gates to Vjardengrad, however, the honorable Mash the Orc made swift work of the half-man, turning him into one-fourth a man. Under the command of the King of Norland and his Warrior-Queen, the Norlandic-Nevaehlen Host marched out to meet the dregs of Urguan. After harrying the Frostbeards to the Middelan, the King ordered a withdrawal, having removed Frostbeard taint from Norlandic Soil yet again, however, the Dwarven Host would soon re-engage the Red Cloaks at the gates to Vjardengrad. The Red Cloaks, after having had a tankard of mead and some delicious Norlandic Soup, sallied forth once again to slay Frostbeards. It only took one however to break the will of the Frostbeards. With their kinsman’s death, they abandoned his body and the fight, retreating back to their caves to brood. LET IT BE KNOWN Chicken slayed a Frostbeard garbed in full Daemonsteel Armor. Torrhen Ash the Squire slew many dwarves bringing glory to his name. Mash the Orc is to be commended for his capture and slaying of an Urguani spy. Queen-Marshal Hilda's unnaturally lengthy arms proved beneficial in the encounter. TO OUR ALLIES the Vale of Nevaehlen shall not be forgotten for their deeds. Let it be known that the Vale is true to their word and remain honor-bound. 41 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ichigomaster98 646 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Io 'Dwarfslayer' Anarórë bursts into their home with a large smile, covered in blood and carrying a large sack of trophies. "I finally caught some bandits! They tried to run like always, but they weren't fast enough this time!" They excitedly tell their wife. "The first one that I killed ran aaall the way to the ocean to hide his tears, but I am faster on land and sea! Then! They came back, and I killed a few more of them that tripped while running from me!" Io neatly sets out all of their spoils on the floor, then picking up a rather impressively made dwarven mace, raising it to show their wife. "The one who tripped dropped this when he fell! It's barely used!" Io then sets the mace down and picks up a midnight-black sword. "He also had this, but I have lots of these." They set it back down into the rather large collection. Io then receives the missive from one of their children, showing them the loot as well before reading it over. "They didn't mention me. That's alright, if they mentioned everything I did they would run out of ink!" 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legoboy7984 2448 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Torrhen Eiriksson stood triumphantly amidst his comrades, the aftermath of the battle spread out before them. The dwarven bodies lay strewn across the field, a testament to his fellow Norlanders valor and strength. With a sense of pride and fulfillment, Torrhen looked across the scene, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Again the path of vengeance for you, father, continues," Torrhen spoke quietly, his words carrying a mixture of sorrow and determination. "Iron from Ice... Iron. from. Ice." 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apotolofo 1414 Share Posted July 30, 2023 A certain Oyashiman Woman finds this commentary to be quite hilarious. "Oh, wonderful! The people who wanted to kidnap me and marry me off were killed. . . that's very nice. Maybe I should visit Norland." Henna chimes, reading the article like one would a gossip column, wrapped up in a bathrobe with cucumbers on her face. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
