A Precious Haven

Start time: March 27, 2022, 4:04 p.m. End time: March 27, 2022, 6:20 p.m.

Setting: Our heroes are victorious in Aurita Meloda, subduing the mighty MegaCapo and repelling, one way or another, the members of the Covenant to Control Chaos. Meloda's Blessing is safe for now, and Reize and his friends have earned the undying loyalty of Cutini Nak and her lizardfolk faithful.

But this victory did not come without cost: Ruidosa was injured during the battle and the party must rest while Reize nurses her back to health. In the interim, during a quiet and private moment, the eidola Kernunnos, having observed the previous battle from within Reize's pendant, speaks up. He is concerned that …

Setting: The party is still reeling from their tragic encounter with the remnant eidola of the goblin village and the mysterious woman who assaulted them there when an emergency message arrives for them at Vanguards HQ in Suryle Kingdom. Cutini Nak, the lizardfolk priestess whom they assisted in the battle at the River Delta west of Zerhem, is requesting aid from our heroes. She reports that a motley band of suspicious individuals is seeking access to the Drowned Undercity beneath Aurita Meloda, where Meloda's Blessing continues to churn away. Her faithful have returned to Aurita Meloda from the delta and are …

Participants: Reize Seatlan, Ivo Galvan, Anna, Yari

Setting: As our heroes prepare to depart at last from Suryle Kingdom and travel to the goblin village so dear to Anna's heart, their contacts at Vanguards HQ issue an emergency request. Reports out of the Queenswood indicate that in the wake of the massacre of the goblins by the marauder eidola, spectral images and eerie sounds have begun manifesting on the killing grounds. Unable to safely return to their village under the circumstances, the goblins, despite their ambivalent relations with the kingdom, requested the aid of Knights of Suryle. The small troop sent to investigate ended up returning in a …

Setting: Our heroes return to Verdios bearing the treasure they intend to donate to the goblin village previously devastated by the eidola marauder they helped Anna to repel. Their port of entry is Suryle Kingdom, the Sentry on the Shore and the wayward princess's home. Though the party does not plan to tarry long, now that Reize has procured a proper disguise and has gathered his resolve, they decide to take the opportunity to visit the headquarters of the Vanguard Association, located in the chilly coastal city.

After a night of rest in one of Suryle's spartan (but free!) longhouses for …

Participants: Ivo Galvan, The Capo, Fabroxo, Camellia

Setting: The sorceress Camellia has trailed the Star Chasers on their journey west from Zerhem, being aware that their alliance with the eidola Kernunnos allows the party to detect the missing arms of the Crux of Creation, the artifact that will lead to the lost legacy of the Star-Crowned. She thus witnessed the merfolk chief Silrug Dac summon Elemental Chaos at the river delta with the aether gems fused to his scaled skin, then ambushed him to cruelly extract some of them for study. She is distracted from the Crux by the prospect of studying this intriguing source of power, and …

Reize-o Incognito

Start time: Feb. 20, 2022, noon End time: Feb. 20, 2022, 3 p.m.

Setting: With the treasure acquired from the Drowned Undercity, and the globe-trotting mobility offered by the Romancing SaGa, our heroes hope to return to Verdios and donate some riches to assist in the rebuilding of the goblin village that Anna so loves. Though nothing can restore the lives lost in the devastating eidola attack, and no trail of that eidola has yet resurfaced, the party can still contribute even if Anna's nemesis remains at large.

There's just one catch: Reize, the party's otherwise fearless leader, is oddly nervous about returning to the nation of his birth. Ivo seeks to persuade the …

Start time: Feb. 13, 2022, noon End time: Feb. 13, 2022, 6 p.m.

Setting: The party is returning in triumph and exhaustion to Zerhem, their adventures on the western coast of Granse concluded. On the road back, they stop to rest in a picturesque logging town near the Misty Forest where the architecture seems familiar, reminiscent of Kernunnos's shrine. It turns out that some of the town's residents have claimed to be descended from the druids of Vaeltrandia scattered upon the kingdom's fall, though most of them have passed away.

One of those self-proclaimed inheritors of druidic talents was especially skilled at predicting the weather, and used this skill to navigate the Misty Forest …

Setting: Beneath Aurita Meloda, something stirs.

The party returns to the ruins of the ancient beastkin metropolis refreshed and resupplied after their time in Zerhem, prepared to seek the third arm of the Crux of Creation in the flooded network of canals buried under the city streets. They bring with them the two fragments they currently possess, now crafted by Ivo into a somewhat functional relic, and the Ophidian Totem, lent to them by the lizardfolk priestess Cutini Nak. The half-Crux has allowed them to restore Kernunnos to limited but adequate strength. The Totem will supposedly open a path deeper into …

But Kernunnos remains exhausted from their battle with the Elemental Chaos in the River Delta.

While the party remains in Zerhem, Ivo resolves to find a way to use the two fragments of the Crux currently in their possession to find a way to convert elemental aether into the power of Creation that Kernunnos needs to recover. Should even …

Pursuing a Princess

Start time: Jan. 16, 2022, noon End time: Jan. 16, 2022, 6 p.m.

Setting: Previously, in Star Chaser Story, our heroes came across some valuable intelligence (salacious gossip rag) that informed them that the princess of Zerhem is rumored to sneak out through a secret passage in the library for trysts with two beaus between whom, melodramatically, she cannot choose. In a remarkable coincidence, when the party returns to Vanguard headquarters with all the actually-relevant-to-adventurers information they could find in the restricted library, a special and oddly lucrative request is waiting for them from an anonymous source: to follow the princess on one of these escapades and confirm their veracity, on the condition of …

Within the Castle Library

Start time: Jan. 9, 2022, noon End time: Jan. 9, 2022, 6 p.m.

Setting: Due to the bravery of the few, the "Star Chasers" earned a free pass from the lizard-folk in the River Delta going forth.

Those affiliated with the "Boy with the Long Yellow Scarf" have becoming increasingly recognized across Zerhem Kingdom and the proximity surroundings. Their successes have attributed to the associated affiliates of the beginner Vanguard the privilege of accessing the castle library.

Given that Corrine is no longer threatening to arrest Reize (for now?), she requested for him to return a few books to the library as she has some updates on the requests board to take. Reize is …

Aurita Meloda

Start time: Jan. 2, 2022, noon End time: Jan. 2, 2022, 6 p.m.

Setting: Upon defeating the Elemental Chaos summoned by the merfolk of the River Delta, our heroes are celebrated by the lizardfolk and allowed safe passage west to the coast. After further discussion with Ivo regarding the party's objectives, Cutini Nak, the lizardfolk head priestess, has lent them the Ophidian Totem, a sacred relic that she claims may open the way into the depths of the ancient and abandoned beastkin city of Aurita Meloda. Based on Kernunnos's intuitions, it seems likely that the third arm of the Crux of Creation somehow ended up buried in the flooded waterways below the city streets, …

A Fork in the River

Start time: Dec. 19, 2021, noon End time: Dec. 19, 2021, 6 p.m.

Setting: Following their successful picnic, the party has confirmed that the signal from the third Crux fragment is emanating far to the west, near the coast. The ruins of an ancient beastkin city lie there, now much diminished from the halcyon days of their people's golden age, but few save the bravest or most desperate treasure hunters venture there. The way passes through wetlands dotted with footbridges that make any travelers targets for the amphibious and aquatic beastkin descended from the denizens of that bygone city.
  Once, the lizardfolk would have merely charged a toll to any passerby. But their control …

Picnic Panic

Start time: Dec. 12, 2021, noon End time: Dec. 12, 2021, 6 p.m.

Setting: The party has narrowed down the location of the next piece of the Crux to somewhere west of Zerhem Kingdom, but how far west remains undetermined. Fortunately, the area immediately west of the city is a gorgeous location where the forested hills appeared to be in perpetual autumn and the valley between is in endless spring. Since this is due to aetherial flux caused by a subterranean concentration of earth-aspected crystals, our heroes have three good reasons to travel there:
  1) to test how far away the next Crux reading is,
  2) to see if any powerful earth crystals and …

Curse of the Mirage Forest

Start time: Dec. 5, 2021, noon End time: Dec. 5, 2021, 6 p.m.

Setting: Recently, there were rumors amongst travelers that there has been an ambush against anyone who traveled along a misty woods. Those who traveled out to reach to their destination were attacked and forced to flee. The rumors even say that the forest is haunted; surrounded by mist, everything within the forest appears to be a mirage. Dwell too deep and you never live to tell the tale.
  The situation warranted the attention of the Vanguard Association, who put a task for those to investigate the situation. None other than the Beginner Vanguard, Reize Seatlan, took up the task.

Mad Magitech

Start time: Nov. 21, 2021, noon End time: Nov. 21, 2021, 6 p.m.

Setting: The party has acquired the second of the four arms of the Crux of Creation from the burial mound of the lost kingdom of Vaeltrandia. Now, unfortunately, they are out of leads. Ivo has thus decided to attempt to adapt his magitech amplifier into a makeshift enhancement device for Kernunnos' detection abilities, so that our heroes may narrow down where in Granse to venture next.
  To that end, Ivo has obtained permission from Zerhem's government to repurpose the abandoned workshop within the nearby Ruined Aqueduct into a magitech laboratory under the pretense of engaging in an archaeological investigation. With this …

Festival of Blessings

Start time: Nov. 7, 2021, noon End time: Nov. 7, 2021, 6 p.m.

Setting: The party has recovered one of the four arms of the Crux of Creation. Acquiring it seems to have bolstered Kernunnos' invaluable ability to detect the presence of the other pieces. Even so, unfortunately, the eidola reports that he senses only one weak and vague signal. Worse still, that signal is coming from the Central Plains of Granse, a vast area with no permanent settlements that is roamed by dangerous megafauna. Searching without any further clues could take a lifetime.
  But rumors have spread in Zerhem that the Aehani have made camp near a great landmark of the Central Plains, …

The Pits of Avarice

Start time: Oct. 31, 2021, noon End time: Oct. 31, 2021, 6 p.m.

Setting:  None today seem to know of the "Crux of Creation" which Kernunnos, the sapient eidola once worshipped by the forgotten druids of Zerhem, claims will lead the way to the lost city of the Star-Crowned. The search for clues has been a difficult one. But rumors and legends have at last led the party to the Golden Hills south of Lake Gerisia, near the Oradian border, where Kernunnos has sensed the faint presence of one of the Crux's four arms.
  Hidden deep within those dusty hills lies an abandoned mine that is said to be haunted by the spirits of …

Setting:
 Ivo's research into the history of the ruined aqueduct has made him curious about the mysterious and forgotten druids who supposedly helped construct it. He believes that he has identified the forest where they once dwelled before departing for Zerhem centuries ago and gathers a party to travel northwest and explore it, putting out a call among the Vanguards for any other adventurers willing and able to assist in exploring the dense woods.
 But he adds an unusual secondary objective: finding and acquiring a rare breed of wild rose. Though cultured Oradia is famous for its cultivated rose gardens, these are …

Participants: Reize Seatlan, Ivo Galvan, Priel

Setting: After the events of First Flight, canonically, Reize and Lily set sail for adventure from Cosmopolis while Ivo and Priel stay behind. Ivo is reappointed to his father's rank and assigned the governorship of a mid-tiered district and he hires Priel as his bodyguard to help him survive Cosmopolitics (TM), which she accepts I guess because he has some money now and the sealed city is pretty interesting. Since we don't have a Lily, I figured our MUSH twist is: Lily goes into Homunculus Sleep Mode and the magical scientists of Cosmopolis can't make heads or tails of what's wrong …
