Gregis woke to smoke and flame.
Fire roared all around him, igniting the carpets and wooden furnishings in the office he'd once claimed. Tapestries were as torches, and smoke crowded all but the few inches where he lay. Pain like nothing he'd expe...

Felix rushed to the shoreline, skipping over rocks and trees, all of them overturned, broken apart, and festooned with the gory remains of Jadorak. He was everywhere, and he would have th...

The Deepking and Garox led them through a door cleverly hidden in the walls. It was huge, clearly sized for some grand procession or creatures of far greater dimensions than the Nym themselves. The Abyssal Serpent fit quite easily, and the enchanted flows o...

Darkness parted, and Felix fell much further than he expected. He hit the ground with a muted grunt, unhurt but surprised. Orienting himself, he looked behind him only to find his team huddled together in a dark chamber...but no Shadowgate.

The Whalemaw bellowed again as Felix pulled the cutter out of it's reach, extending their lead by another hundred yards. It's toothy gob gnashed like a landslide, it's incalculable bulk an impossible force sweeping toward them. But they had survived.
