Hey, I've mentioned Fennik (sort of) I just lose track of who's part of the company and who's not. But I shall remember to specifically name tour character in my next post. But the main company is in the cursed city at tgis moment, being taken to the Prirstess of Deela by a Messenger. The city is ezxtremely magical, but moatly with werewolves, giants, trolls (very few), vampires, witches (more specifically hags), etc. But it is otherwise a normal looking city (which is naturally underground ansmd has a subterrean river flowing through it) Perfectly noral ;-)

I have submitted my next post. It is quite long, but eh...

Also, for some clarification, here are the places where the events have taken place thus far:

Spoiler

1. Dominic, Sarris and Kevin came from the Forest of Darpor, to the South of the Capital Province of the Kingdom of Poranne. That was where they encountered the dragonet.

2. After that, Dominic, Sarris, Kevin, Jorgen, Kollek and Annette either entered the Province of Inmoden and headed for its northenmost town, Alonza (as in the case of the first three), or they were already there and departed from Alonza (as in the case of the last three).

3. Everyone mentioned above then proceeded west and into the forest of Thellrind, following the path from Alonza to Evincourt.

4. Renalf, however, was approaching Evincourt from the east as well, but he was a few hours ahead of Jorgen and Kollek, thereby reaching Evincourt (which is located in the middle of the Tommarian plains) before them. He was pursuing the raiders, so he hired Roco, a black mercenary, and then confronted Oqrol moments before the other six entered the town and came upon them. Dominic then assaulted Oqrol, after which Renalf (and of course Roco) decided to join the party.

5. The party of eight then continued west through the Plains of Tommar until they spotted the Inmoden River. Theyu continued until they noticed a cave in a seemingly insignificant hill. The cave is, of course, the entrance to the Cursed City of Deela. It is there where Fennik and Wolf joined them.

6. Jorgen and Kollek had had enough though, and fought their way over the bandit's bridge, burning it down afterwards. They then continued west to the city of Buldenheim, stayed for a few days, then travelled west, through the Forest of Morask, where Caioliss began stalking and joined them.

7. Meanwhile, my character, Diánterrus, is about to depart from Alonza and is about a week behind. Having said that, I would very much appreciate it if you could remain stationary when you reach the next city/town/settlement. I cannot post too regularly, but if all five creators of Sarris' companions constantly let the party proceed, Diánterrus will never catch up.

Also, if you are @TheWanderingWizard, please read the following:

Spoiler

Stop going off in all directions! You came from the north and travelled west, since you said Gzomriflt is to the west, yet some of your posts state you are once again heading north. Choose a direction and stick with it already!

Finally, could everyone please use this thread to do some actual discussing? It seems every creator does exactly what they want and adapts their story to the others'. That is good, for sure, but it means that things get very confusing if you try to make sense of it (hence my long post). Could everyone therefore just say what they more or less plan on doing next in their post?

That is all. ~~Goodness, am I tired...~~

Note to @JamesHunt : I don't really understand your frustration with me. 1. I never said Dominic came from the north. (I only said that the province he was in was the northernmost Human province, which means that the lands even more north are either Elvish, Dwarvish, etc). 2. I never stated that Gzomriflt is in the West. The only tome I actually mention the diredtion west is when I explain how the river Indonem flows into the Great Western Sea. And 3. I actually DID say that Gzomriflt is in the north, when the farmer told them (before they encounter Renalf or Jorgen) that Goblins settle in the north close to the ruins.
Thus you do not substantial evidence to prove your accusation.

I don't, @TheWanderingWizard, do I? Well...

The snowstorm that had been battering the northernmost Human kingdom, the Kingdom of Poranne (Also the capital's name), finally subsided as Dominic woke from his slumber. He had taken refuge under an overhanging cliff, his horse, Shadow, not bening able to travel any further throw the knee-deep snow.

1. This comes from your first post and suggests that Dominic is quite far north. So far north, in fact, that the entire kingdom is being battered by a single snowstorm. Point #1 disproved.

They encountered various people on the road, most on the three day long journey to the capital Poranne.

2. This comes from your fourth post and suggests that you are heading towards the capital, which means you are heading south, as most capitals are not in the northenmost province. Still, let's say you are heading even farther north.

They all continued onward for the rest of the day, constantly heading uphill and to the west, towards the Great Plains of Tommar, named after the greatest Elfking Tommar the Elder.

3. However, this comes from that same post (a few paragraphs later, actually), and it clearly states that you are heading west. Also, you take Geography, so you ought to know there are no plains north of the taiga forests in the northern hemisphere. Point #2 disproved.

4. If you had read TTYF's post at the beginning of page two, you would have read that there was much sweating, a descent from mountains and an increase in temperature. Does that sound commonplace for "plains" north of a taiga forest? And saying it is hot because it is summer is not an adequate answer, as there had been a massive snowstorm but a few days ago. Point #3 disproved.

"See if you can find out where Kollek and Jorgen went," Dominic said, "I believe they went in a north-easternly direction."

5. This is your second post on the second page. Now if these two are heading for the ruins, which a previous post said was to the west, then why would they go northeast?

Overall, there is clear evidence that certain of your posts provide confusing and/or misleading information. This is not entirely your fault, but providing some clarity will nevertheless be much appreciated.

Would it all right if Renalf and Roco slipped away as they were walking through the tunnel?

Note to my fellow SBers: I shall clarify the situation James brought to the scene. The kingdom of Poranne is mlsituated in the north, including its capitol. 2. They were forced to travel west, mostly because of the treacherous terrain if you were to travel there directly. Thus you HAVE to trel to the Plains of Tommar, for it is a much "safer route to Gzomriflt, albeit a long detour. But the ruins of Gzomriflt are situated to tge north-east kf the Tommarian Plains, and directly north of the place where Dominic is in my first post.
So in a nutshell: From the capitol of Poranne you have to travel south-west to reach the Tommarian Plains, then gltravel north until you reach the great dangerous northern mountain range in which you travel east to the ruins.

Any other queries, please notify me.

So I am confused a little. From my understanding, Annette is a wanted person because she is a vampire, right? Or am I just imagining things?

That's up to you. She is your character after all... if you want people to change their posts you should ask them to.

No. I don't mind being a wanted vampire. Haha.

I'm just wondering if that is what is basically being said from the priestess of Deela. That's all.

Oh no! The Prirstess of Deela just wants to make sure all "cursed beings are "safe" in the Cursed City, but she is technically going to hold you prisoner in the CC if you want to leave (btq to however's going to write the escaping from the CC post, which still several posts away, enjoy it)

WW, that's a really helpful clarification. Can we say that the Burr that my characters stop at is the last before the mountain range starts? The border of non goblin controlled land? I think that makes sense, so I think I'll make it so... Sound good?
