A Storm comes to the Skarch
The Skarch Desert seems to be a place full of mystery, and unexpected developments. In the early hours of the 5th of Urlachmar, 651 years after the Coming of Estarra, a cry for help was heard around the Basin of Life, then quickly muffled, as someone tumbled underneath the Skarch’s vast sands. Quick adventurers would…

Read MoreOf Squirrels and Shrines
It was a particularly nice day at the very tail end of winter in the year 650 CE, when a loud screeching pierced the peaceful quietness. The source was obviously coming from Tolborolla, but so annoying was the noise that those who gathered to investigate were frantically scrambling all over the valley, unable for a…
Read MoreOf Fire and Ledgers
From the diary of Xislia Dith, 19th of Roarkian, year 649: Knowing how much Chixesaka loves his coins, I figured I could really impress him with a nice ledger to keep track of all of his riches. So, not too long ago, I started studying how to bind books. Oddly though, every time I gave…

The call came out on the 21st of Kiani, in the year 648 after the Coming of Estarra: I am looking for an adventurer. Come find me at the Triple Junction Inn. And indeed, adventurers arrived to find none other than Tapif the Furrikin, an adolescent of mildly mysterious origin, seeking to go on an…

Read MoreLong Live Forum Archives!
Tired of using the Wayback Machine to get a look at our long-lost forums? So were we. When Lusternia moved to a new forum back in 2012, all previous content effectively became lost.

Read MoreOf squirrels
In the thick of winter of 645 CE, the Kiakodan Nature Reserve was burglarised by unknown forces. Reported publicly by Gatekeeper Quillion Jones, the break-in resulted in the squirrel nursery, which was watched over by Tommut Whitlock, being utterly destroyed and the baby squirrels kidnapped. First on the scene was Exeryte Stormcrow of Glomdoring, who…
Read MoreHappy Egg Hunt!
Egg hunt or squirrel hunt? Either way, the devious duo that kidnapped baby squirrels from the Reserve appear to have unleashed them, now grown, upon the Basin of Life. Thrown overboard from the airships of the kidnappers, the squirrels have landed all over safely thanks to built-in parachutes. Many still float about, pulled by the…
