People of the Realms, as the air cools and the leaves begin to fall, we are once again given the opportunity to return to Blackavar.
During my previous time in these lands, I saw a unique duality in place for us adventurers. On one side, we met the nobles of Blackavar. We talked with them, participated in their politics, helped them shape the future of their nation. On the other, we saw a novel and dangerous threat in the form of the harrowed enemies who opposed us.
Throughout our time in Blackavar and the lands beyond, I believe that we have been given a unique opportunity to influence the area for the better. I have seen bountiful opportunities to make your mark, be it through questing in the day or night, or through the social systems throughout.
I am looking forward to meeting the people of Archendell, this new settlement of Blackavar. I hope that we can all aid them in their research, and any necessary defense to keep them safe from the Harrowed.
And more than anything else, I look forward to our first venture into the Harrowed lands. For the good of Blackavar and beyond, we must make progress towards stopping the harrowing. And if nothing else, we should at least ensure that Archendell and Blackavar as a whole stay safe.
But not all that is Harrowed is evil, and not all that is Harrowed is lost. Like some others, I myself have taken on some levels of Harrowing, and in exchange, I wield a sword equipped with the power of war itself. This is a power I intend to use to defend Blackavar and my other allies, at any necessary cost to myself.
Because friends, powerful beings think that they can write our story, and it is up to us to prove them wrong.
In addition to our return to Blackavar and venture into the Harrowed lands, a set of new opportunities awaits us on the final day of our quest.
Three calls have been sent, and I hope to see you respond. With feral dragons, a troublesome sickness, and a mysteriously abandoned village, many folks seem to need our help and I hope all who are near answer the call.
May your spells fly free and your blades strike true,

OOC:
KoSD Questing is the plot series that I am the most excited about right now. When I went to KoSD 2, the open world questing felt well-done and a refreshing twist on a typical questing formula. In my experience, the EHs have brought an extremely high level of passion and creativity to the plotwriting, props, and storytelling. This is also an event series that caters well to new players, giving them opportunities to interact with the plot and get more involved in our game as a whole. I am so ready to see where this next chapter goes.
And as for Sunday, storytellers brings in 3 new event holders. Nixon, Kyra, and Matthew are folks who I have a great deal of respect for, and I am excited to see what they have prepared. With the backing of the KoSD and their passion,
I am hoping for great things!
