The storm had passed. The day looked to be rapidly approaching dusk. She groaned, sitting up as a wave of pain washed over her. Eyes suddenly wide, she rushed to undo the top of her robes and stared down at her bared chest – of the wound that had crippled her, there was no sign. Next to her, resting...

“Is this a joke?” She blinked, trying to clear her head, which was screaming in pain. She groaned, trying to recall how she’d ended up on the ground. “Get up. I’m not going to fight you when you can’t even stand.” That was her own voice. Was she talking to herself? She tried to focus her vision. The...

A lesson learned. The allies she had been slowly drawing closer, the ones she had hoped to trust enough to protect her in her moment of vulnerability, had abandoned her. Fair enough. It was a reminder once again that the only one she could truly trust was herself. Consider it a test. You’ll just hav...

The night always felt more alive to her than the day. Her fires were brighter at night, her senses more alive, more aware – the old superstitions of inferior creatures, that the night was a thing to be feared, had crafted her nighttime senses into things of imagination and half-truths. There were gu...

To the Grim: I present to you a former comrade, Durk'atar. His skill at manipulation of elemental forces is impressive, and he is also a talented Speaker amongst the orcs. I believe you shall find him to be a worthy addition to the Grim. The letter is accompanied by a short scroll. Grim: May the st...

The bitter cold of the Storm Peaks hardly bothered a woman whose very core generated blistering flame. The wind whipped her robe back and forth as her mount landed in the drifting snow, which promptly melted beneath her feet as she dismounted. Confidently, she strode through the ancient archway into...

Engineering Journal - 28 August My work at this time goes entirely into the theoretical. I have no practical information that would suggest success - only the assumption that if a magical effect works in one direction, it can work in the other as well. In short, my supposition is this - if the land...

She hadn't returned to this room since that day, years ago, when she had sacrificed an old friend in order to stabilize herself. The adjustment period had ...

To the High Inquisitor: My second interview as part of my Trial of Resolve was with the Forsaken known as Atticus. In contrast to my first interview, I specifically sought this individual out; as you seem to hold him in high regard, I thought his insights may be useful. While my first interview req...

To the High Inquisitor: Please find below the first of my reports regarding my Trial of Resolve. My first interview was with the troll priestess Lilliana, an interview of convenience and timing rather than planning. My first question posed to her, given her seeming friendship with the troll pirate ...

Sorry, with school starting back up she's been pulled about 20 different ways. I'll remind her.

To the High Inquisitor, and to the Grim at large, When I was first counted amongst the ranks of the Grim, I knew great fear. I feared being discovered for who I was. I feared being alone and unloved. I feared a lack of respect. I feared being abandoned. In my fear, all of these things became true. ...

I'm currently closing at my job, and 8 server is when I typically finish. I may (will probably) be late for the start of your office hours, but I'm assuming you're there for a while. I'll try to be on as soon as I can.
