Glimworm Gulch

Guiyue had long lost his sister to the bog's murk. He wasn't worried - not really. Certainly she mattered to him, but he could already see the true danger in his sights, which meant that she was not currently being accosted by it. Of course, when they'd agreed to separate, he'd thought he might have an advantage when it came to finding the corrupt kelpie; with his mastery over water, he knew which way it flowed. That was the reason he'd agreed, after all. Tennou had spent moons ...

Venus and Ginkgo had their own vines in their mouths, keeping the kelpie down while Minos tried to focus his energy on the vines holding down Ulpukka. “Do not let her touch the water, I need to make sure my healing magic goes through to her. If those vines break, we’ll lose her back into the bog and lose any chance of recovering the villagers.”...

The bog dream left Syfke with an unnerving - as if there was a touch of augury to the experience. In the morning, Syfke journeyed to the Jutsk shrine and meditated on the memory of it.  It had been such a brief interaction with the creature known as Ulpukka. Ulpukka had unique powers and represented the bogs as a place of life and death. A cautionary tale to take care in the depths of the bog.  The distress Ulpukka ...

The new guy, Orcus, think is his name, almost gave Minos a heart attack when I saw him from behind when he was tracking Ulpukka. He was having flashbacks to Furcifer back in Miatias. Relieved that this Aitielkh was not corrupted by the song of the kelpie. However, that little stunt with his fire just set him back from getting it out of this bog water. Argument ensued and he left with a huff, his leathery wings cracking against the night air as he had found his herb, plant thing he need...

Orcus shivered as he glided over the terrain of Silkassa at night, his bat-like wing beating in the night air as he bathed in the light of the stars and the almost full moon. Illuminating the way of his flight as he avoided the clouds. He shivered as a cold front blew across him, not enjoying how cold the weather was getting. The plants he needed for a certain concoction could only be found in Glimworm Gulch. Somethin...

Noë’s ears perked forward as she finally heard the bugling the villagers had told her about. It sent a shiver down her pelt but she pressed forward, stepping carefully through the bog. She had reached a point where there were no clear paths, and she just had to keep following the sound, hoping any cursed beps were also that way. While she would have much preferred to be out here during the day, she had arrived late...

When you partake in fire as your magic of choice, you often have to learn a lot about flames in all their mannerisms and forms. Bog fires were complex, and though there was fuel in specific spots that Jaakobah could pull from should he have the need, he still needed to be careful. If push came to shove he could use the tops of some of the bog grass to fuel some of his magic, but he honestly preferred the least possible amount of damage to the surrounding area- and to Ulpukka, of course. This ...
