    From the Diray of Kadeen Tahan


    1 year. It has already been one year since I left the apiary. My work. My home. I wandered the surrounding area and passed into new territories of this still unfamiliar country. there are so many different species of bees here and they all behave just a little bit differently. It was part of what drew me to this country. I love all fauna but bees have always been special. My family has been beekeepers for generations. It is why i was able to find work so quickly at the apiary. It is what allowed me to climb through the ranks so quickly and be trusted with a large number of my own hives. I carved my symbol into the brood boxes; an ankh with a bee within representing my family's work and heritage. It was the last step in feeling that this place and I were connected. The thing that truly made it my home in this land.


    The Apiary

    Surrounded by a constant storm each morning the winds part and swarms go out, only vampires are allowed in which upsets the older keepers.


    The Patch

    An impromptu guildhouse formed by the farmers trying to make resources stretch in a world where the sun doesn’t shine, a recent adoption of the group by a poor noble family could mean big changes in the fortunes of this enclave


    The Branded Servants

    The counts and barons of the previous regime, scrabbling for a world that makes sense and picking up as many loose troops or authority wherever possible.

    The Marques of the Apiary’s Offer to the Patch June 21st 1465


    Mr. Pear it has been made clear by Corporal Immaru the branded servants are willing to squat in front of my home for the next year or so waiting for property that they claim was stolen. I have no interest in stolen property, just prosperity. In exchange for 30 kine from your ranks to properly tend and replenish the field that you are trampling I will give you both sets of seals as well as put in a good word with your bethothed’s father. I hope to hear good news of our deal tomorrow evening till then

  • Keening refuge
    Oct 21 2022

    A letter stuffed in the pages of Georg’s Diary


    Cub, the storm clouds that retreated from our home won’t be gone forever. Our new friend Kadein has spent the last weeks recovering as much as he can in our town. It is time for him to seek the refuge that his soul yearns for. He is not the only one leaving. This area has proved too dangerous for my litter currently. We will be around, but the temple will be intermittently shut for the foreseeable future.


    Stay safe,

    Calisto
