    Sunward Fort Sunward

    "Civilians of a sort," Steven said, holding his claws out and upturned. A pacifying gesture. "Though not the sort you should be turning away right now. Not when our business is as she says. We're with the Wayfarers." Here he paused for a moment to see if the name meant anything to the...

    Sunward Fort Sunward

    Steven slowed to a stop next to Brisa, his eyes wide at the scene before them. Guns. Artillery. A fort of peaceful Wardens who were in no way ready for a full scale military siege. Not good. "Plan?" He gave a weak chuckle. "No plan. A concept of a plan, maybe. Thank you for your restraint, by...

    Sunward Fort Sunward
    Threadmarks: [Ch08 Finale] ~ Holding the Fort

    Steven peered up at the Sunrest Mesa, and at the inevitable clash that was about to take place upon it, and hesitated. He'd promised Aurelia the Wayfarers would help the Wardens. Yes, that meant protecting the Living Sun, but it also meant not leaving the Wardens to deal with a bunch of angry...

    Offscreen Activities

    With Aurelia's concern about the Commonwealth army encampment nearby, Steven reaches out to Lucien and the Frontier Town leadership to see what they know about the growing military presence in Sunward. His hope is that something can be done to help ease the tension there, either by diplomatic...

    Offscreen Activities

    As soon as Steven's business in Tyrrier concludes, he heads to Sunward to call on Aurelia once again. "Hail, Day-Captain," he greets her warmly, "though I wish I were here with happier news. There is a group of individuals from the Commonwealth, a faction of the Covenant of Light, who intend to...

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    Steven's gaze fell to the tabletop, his claws tightening around the heat rock in his hands. Laura hadn't exactly meant it as a jab, but it still didn't stop the sudden rush of shame from coursing through him. He very well could have done without that in front of not one, but two people, thank...

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    Steven continued to stare at Ralsen, searching for something even if he didn't know what. They were the same. Two souls with nowhere to return to. Two souls that made a choice. Finally, he broke his stunned silence. "Then... then why? Why are you so eager to go back home? If... if it...

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    Steven knew Metang didn't have any blood that could run cold, but it didn't stop him from feeling like he'd been dunked in the icy waters outside. Whatever he'd been expecting Ralsen to say, it wasn't that. He stared across the table, dumbfounded. "...What?"

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    Steven gave a noncommittal hum. "Well it seems Forlas keeps coming up with new and inventive ways to have humans tumble their way in through the fabric of space time." So Ralsen was on some sort of noble mission before he ended up here. All sorts of people who meddled with Legendaries thought...

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    Again Steven found himself regarding Ralsen with veiled skepticism. 'Comes and goes?' What sort of an injury would result in that? Not that he could confess to know anything about Grovyle anatomy. "Well, I'm sorry it's still lingering, but at least it's more or less healed," Steven said...

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    Steven's gaze narrowed slightly at Ralsen's admission. "I'm sorry to hear that," he said, sounding like the sentiment was more out of obligation than true concern. "I'm surprised Saffron would allow you to join this expedition if she'd known you were hurt." He'd seen Ralsen at the roundtable...

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    "Well it certainly was warmer..." he muttered, shifting the heat rock to one claw, allowing him to produce a small glass bottle from the pouch on his bracer. He gently shook it, allowing the black sand inside to glitter in the low tavern light before setting it on the table in front of Laura for...

    Tyrrier Reven Hollow

    In the background of the conversation, the tavern door creaked open just long enough to allow a Metang to slip inside. Steven was quick to shut it behind him with a telekinetic push, eager to be inside away from the cold, and more than grateful for Betel's gift of fast travel. Yes, he'd offered...

    Steven thought for a moment, bringing a claw to his chin. "Long-lasting atmospheric Radiance?" he echoed. "Hm, I hadn't considered it before, but maybe he's referring to Sunward? It's a stretch of desert in Sojavena where the sunrises and sunsets are unnaturally long, taking up almost the...

    Steven blinked, his eyes adjusting to the sunlight against the darkness left from the heart of the dungeon. 'Hi Betel. We can hear you. We're alright.' Alright was maybe a bit generous. Unharmed was probably the right word. Because all of this, the vision-- the knowledge-- was a lot to take in...

    As Steven watched Lorrel's time-lapsed transformation, of what had come to pass whether in a fortnight or more, more of Aurelia's words came to mind: The myth of the Sun said she now slept in her sacrifice. If Amida was just as powerful as Lorrel, and Lorrel's light never left Forlas despite...

    Novelux Blackglass Caldera Mystery Dungeon

    Steven's expression pinched at Lorrel's words. The anguish, the desperation in them. So it had been like that. Lorrel had a glass handed to him by Auriga and filled to the brim, overflowing with power and importance. A blessing. And a curse. One misstep, one small tilt of the rim, and it would...

    Novelux Blackglass Caldera Mystery Dungeon

    Steven floated nearby, his heart breaking for the Saint in front of him. From everything he'd seen in these visions, Lorrel was so young; was he just a child when Auriga summoned him? Akin to a new trainer about to set out on their journey? Bright-eyed and optimistic, unaware (or unprepared to...

    Novelux Blackglass Caldera Mystery Dungeon

    Steven raised an arm to shield against the light and heat that poured forth from the clash. It was awe-inspiring, the sheer energy on display in the formation of the namesake's caldera. It was still unbelievable that a single human and their partner could be responsible for all this. As the...

    Once they crested the plateau, Steven stopped and turned back the way they came, hovering close to the edge. He watched the rising water with deep sorrow. 'Inevitable devastation'? If he could shiver, he would have. A memory of standing atop the Sootopolis Gym's roof, watching the water lap...
