Why I Want To Go - Echoes of Ragnarok: The Quiet Year

It's not summertime anymore, but if past experience has taught us anything, it's that when Rhiassa hosts a Ragnarok event at the Gilded Lion Summer Festival site, some crazy and experimental stuff is about to go down. While the Echoes of Ragnarok series has certainly had its share of traditional quests, there have also been quite a few events in the plot line that had some very non-traditional mechanics. Strap in, because that's the case this time as well.

It's been quite a while since the penultimate event in the Ragnarok story line. When the heroes left Norlund after repairing the damaged cosmology of that plane, while simultaneously winning an epic war that took place across six different worlds, they had just given rise to a new pantheon of Asir and Vanir. In the time since then, the lands of Norlund have been rebuilding. This event is about helping to create the story for how that rebuilding took place.

This is an event based on world building, role playing, and storytelling. There will be physical and mental challenges that must be overcome, but more than anything, it is for the heroes who set Norlund to right to have the opportunity to help build what that world now looks like in the aftermath of their intervention. If you've become invested in the stories of these people, the Jomsvikings and their allies, then you're invited to come on down to Connecticut and be a part of what those stories look like when they are told in full.
