Mytros, the shining city of the Five, bastion of the mortal races of Thylea and the current epicenter of an apocalyptic storm, stands before our heroes as they are quickly escorted to the king by mighty dragonlords atop their imposing mounts.  Much different than their reception with the king in Estoria, King Acastus has a proposition in mind for the heroes, though it is not one easily accepted.  After making some hard decisions, the Chosen of Versi find themselves at Volkan’s Peak, likely unprepared for what comes next...

Ariel gets some wine.

Eto keeps his head down.

Nausicaa appraises many oxen.

Nehmet suggests blasphemy.

Ylva sees a familiar face.

Next time on…

Volkan’s Peak, the highest point in the city of Mytros and home to one of the few gig-ready microphones in all the land.  A fitting venue for our heroes’ epic struggle to rid the city of the destructive storm which wracks its walls.  Two gods, one 500 year old bard, one chance to rock so hard that Sydon surrenders his assault on the city.  Are the heroes up to this new challenge?

Does Ariel understand human anatomy?

Can Eto fly?

Can Nausicaa take the eye of a storm?

Will Nehmet invent a new genre of music?

Did Ylva ever confront Haskell?

Find out next time!  Until then, remember to ward off the jealous gaze of the Twin Titans and to revere the blessed Five.  May The Chosen of Versi succeed in their quest, else all of Thylea will be lost...

The 500 year Oath of Peace is coming to an end and the Titans’ jealous rage has only ripened over time.  Five heroes have been summoned by the Oracle, who prophesied that they are the only hope of refuge from the death of the gods, the destruction of the sacred tree, and the total annihilation of all mortal races.  Join our heroes (and their players):

Ariel (Venus), a naively entitled nymph with a pension for persuasion

Eto (Billy), a hard-ass Aresian soldier who believes that discipline and pride are cardinal virtues

Nausicaa (Violet), a strangely social medusa who can kill a yak from 200 yards away with her trusty bow

Nehmet (Sojak), a man out of time, slowly clearing a 500 year fog from his mind as he composes the greatest epic poem Thylea will ever know

Ylva (Jacob), a stranger in a strange land whose bone-and-hide armor is almost as threatening as her fiery magics

as they are guided through the world of Thylea by their Dungeon Master (Sam).  Many dangers exist in Thylea, especially for one so bold as to take up adventuring, but if The Chosen of Versi fail in their quest, the future of Thylea is certain to be a grim one.
