Why I Want To Go - Voraniss Questing 4: The Ruins of Lostpeak

Written by: Zack "Anthony" Emmert

Heroes and Adventurers of the Realms,

In a few days time, we travel far to the west, to the ruins of Lostpeak. This was the site of thel ast battle between the Knights of the Aberrant Gate, and the Miscreations that lie beyond that very gate. It was here that each of the Knights, save Sir Willmot D’Aubert and Sir Edwyn Raincourt, split up and left the site of the battle. Sirs Willmot and Edwyn fought against the miscreations together, and while they were able to destroy the physical structure of the Gate, Sir Willmot fell in battle. Several of the miscreations escaped the site of the battle, who later killed Sir Edwyn’s family. The combined loss of his family and his Knight Commander was the tipping point that drove him to become the lich we now face.

The Enlightened Quill Society and the Silvering Justicar have established an archeological dig site at the ruins, and we hope to recover artifacts and information that will help us as this conflict evolves. The Knights of the Aberrant Gate do not yet know that this is our destination, and we hope to keep it this way as long as possible. I hope to see you all there.

Good luck and godspeed,

Anthony Warder of Stonewood


OOC:

This questing series is my one-stop shop for story driven questing with deep and expansive lore, and never fails to get me fired up and ready to fight for my life. With each passing event, the plot staff have blown me away more and more with their dedication to their craft. From the costuming and props that bring the world to life (I’m looking at you, Flesh Blanket™), to the immersive roleplaying and top-notch NPCing, to the cohesive and well-crafted worldbuilding, Voraniss Questing is easily one of my favorite quest series in the Realms. I’m looking forward to seeing what the plot team has in store for us next!

See you all at Lostpeak,

Zack Emmert
