Congratulations to Ilyarin and his crew for tracking down the Toymaker’s Wife (aka Yoftie r’Wesmak) who was hiding out in the quarantined aetherbubble known as Mucklemarsh.

Dynami, Ayrna and Adala were the first to discover that the toys sold by Yoftie r’Wesmak’s were not all they seemed, as they began steal gold and commodities from their owners. Kiradawea, Iytha and Sahmiam tried to track down Yoftie r’Wesmak and discovered that her name was an anagram for “Toymaker’s Wife”. When the gnomes…

While searching for the means to free the Holy Supernal Raziela from the bonds of Faethorn, the Celestines of New Celest found themselves in discussions with the tainted city of Magnagora wherein the usually opposing cities contemplated combining elemental forces to confound the nature magics of the communes.

Buttressed by their allies, the two Sealbearers fought each…

For nearly two years, artists have been preparing their greatest works to enter into the Challenge of Beauty.
