What it Means to be Grim

Servilia stood in the darkness, lit only by a flickering tallow candle, staring at the words she had written on the page in front of her. "What does it mean to be Grim and serve the Mandate?" So many different answers, one for every person she asked. As she read the replies, she could hear...

Re: An Omen Collection

Dreamed of three crowns hovering over the head of a one-eyed man. Each was inscribed with silver heart-shaped filigree, but as I watched, they melted, leaving only the eye. Saw a falling star in the early afternoon. Expect locusts. The naga are swarming in the deeps. Murlocs, sea serpents, and worse...

Re: An Omen Collection

The stars are arranged, with the Haywain in the house of the Captain, and the Ewer bright against the Lovers. I cast the bones, thrice times three. The Hanged Man every time. I have been assigned a task to interview three officers of the Grim. Three? Or was it five? Three is a more auspicious number...

Re: An Omen Collection

Three leaves falling against the wind. The pattern suggested a fiery dancer, and I heard cries of the Ancients on the breeze. When I set out from Thunder Bluff, a raven took off on my right. Ill fortune for the journey. I find myself covered in ash when I return from the Mount. Inches deep, it cling...

Re: An Omen Collection

"Seven toadstools on the main path in the Drag. No rain for days. Two clouds traveling against the wind. Summer is growing long, and autumn will soon be upon us. Found a man in the Badlands, a human. He had been attacked by a mountain lion. His blood drew beautiful pictures in the red sand. He ...

An Omen Collection

The following is written on a series of loose-leafed parchment, bundled in a roll and tied with thread. "Three arrowheads in the riverbed this morning, all facing upstream. Struggles against the current. Difficult times ahead. Leaves soaked in swiftthistle tea. Shortly after midday. One leaf un...

Visions of a Tabard

My visions are never complete. I see fragments, hints of what is to come, filtered through layers of reality and my own mortal ability to comprehend. Images become icons, symbols, metaphors. I saw myself wandering the remains of a ruined world, sewing the shreds from a hundred sin'dorei's robes into...

A Scroll Delivered by a Monster

The vaguely humanoid creature that shambles and slobbers its way to the Grim guildhall is nothing short of repulsive. Its thick hide is pale and wet, its lips thick and flapping as it gibbers and thrusts a folded envelope into the hands of whatever poor sod has the misfortune to answer the door. The...
