Ta'winn Darkwalker - A New Beginning

  Ta’winn Darkwalker - A New Beginning We are having a break from the arduous training that General Thorrel has us doing and I have a few moments to start this journal. It's one of the quaint customs that people seem to do in this new land that I’ve adopted… is keeping a journal. A journal isn’t something that I felt was necessary in the Shadowfell, but here where life has so much meaning, it feels necessary. Besides, I don't ever want to forget how I felt during these first months in this new world. Where to begin… I’ve lived my life in the shadows, and, for a long time, it was all I knew. In the Shadowfell, we Shadar-Kai are hunters, tasked with keeping order in a world that rejects it. I’d spent over two centuries roaming that realm of gray and silence, hunting creatures twisted by the darkness. My name carried weight there; “Darkwalker” they called me, a figure who drifted through the gloom with spectral arrows and silent steps. My path was one of necessity, not of choice,

Cleaning Up and Doing Some Pruning

Characters Harold - Raven – Kalashtar - Samurai/Ninja Alex - Terentus – Garlean - Barbarian Holden - Manson – Warlock/Sorcerer Jocelyn - Ahna - Wizard (Divination) Session Notes - 2024-10-24 The battle on the ship has ended, Manson completed his word to the Oni Blade and it drank from all three of the runebearers who invaded the ship.

I watch as Manson pulls Morgan’s head out of his bag of holding, held it up for Pluck to see. She gets steely eyed and I hear her say, ”I want Cassia to see this... That way she will know that the monster that Morgan was is dead.“ As much as it might disgust others, I agree with Pluck’s sentiment and the girl herself told Manson that she wanted to see Morgan dead.

  Characters Harold - Raven – Kalashtar - Samurai/Ninja Alex - Terentus – Garlean - Barbarian Holden - Manson – Warlock/Sorcerer Jocelyn - Ahna - Wizard (Divination) Session Notes: 2024-10-17 We were still in Kit Kat, sitting around the fire relaxing that night. Pluck and Renalla hand out drinks and propose toasts to the future. I even took a sip. In the past I would not have participated in something like this, but my time in the Spirit Realm had shown me that I needed to enjoy what life had to offer, not just simply exist. It didn’t mean that I was going to be like Manson, but I was going to enjoy the parts of life that I had avoided as unnecessary or distractions. As we were sitting there, I noticed Ahna looking at Kenzo who was doing something with his Tarot deck and that he had pulled out a Tarot card - the Death Card, and heard him mutter, “That’s not good, I’ll have to see what comes of it in the morning.  A Vision - Guillermo’s Treachery Guillermo waited patiently for Meerkan t
