Setting
The Arcadia is a five-story castle built by the dwarf Jothan, former legendary paladin turned merchant. He invested the loot collected via saving damsels in distress and slaying kingdom-threatening dragons into real estate, purchasing a swathe of land as large as a country. It is rumored he got an amazing deal on it. Mostly because the land was at the time plagued by bloodthirsty giants, which he turned into hamburger patties.
Jothan intended for the Arcadia to be a resort for epic-level adventurers who had run out of quests to gather, share stories around a fireplace, go on trips to the countryside, maybe slay some monsters like in the good old days, and generally relax with similar people. Nonepic adventurers also stop by frequently to rest up between their quests and maybe learn a few things.
It's spring, and the Arcadia has just accepted a fresh batch of adventurers from all across the globe. After a tour of the grounds -- partial, as it would take a few days straight on horseback to traverse the land in its entirety -- the adventurers are gathering in the courtyard for a welcome banquet.

Some rules
1. proper grammar
2. attempt to avoid one sentence posts, where possible.
2.1 Collaboration! I recommend this where possible, even if it's just messaging back and forth with a person about scenarios with your characters.
3. Each post must bring the story forward. Avoid telling the same event from different points of view or worse, going back in time.
