  • Today, our group set out from Desert Rose after preparing our clothing for winter excursions. I made sure the newly made robes and armor were not touched, because I didn't want the gear to already be altered, to do that would be insulting to those who made it. I instead just opted for padded winter clothing to go underneath the robes and armor. After that whole ordeal, I got to know a bit of this new companion from the Gerudo, Ooset. Her duty to Zahira is what sent her our way, and seemingly mixed with a bit of curiosity of using dead now fossilized creatures and using them in shapeshifting; reminds me of the druids of the Feywilds. I must say, I admire that in her, as she studied each of these creatures, including one called a "Mammoth", or "Elephant". ...those creatures remind me of some chimera, with that snake nose thing on the end of their heads.
     
    To start things off on our travels to the Reach, Radegast sprung the idea of teleporting to the west to clear much of the Desert from our travel, and instead opt for the civilized route near the Capitol Sea Breeze. We went to the local Lord Thorn GrimRoze, where he agreed and took us there, as he happened to have other business matters there at the moment. After some final wrappings up with our gear, rations and other items, we arrived at the Capitol inside their palace. Needless to say, we were quickly escorted out of the premises within minutes, and I must say a great shame. I heard it's a lovely view from the top of the palace, some day!
     
    For our form of travel, Varis had this nifty magic foldable boat using some transmutation most likely that was able to travel on sand, water and *possibly* snow. We decided to take the cove down towards Glacier's Rest, taking maybe a day or two's worth of travel by boat. During the relaxing ride however, we were interrupted by what I thought was some whale, or water elemental. Instead, it was a devil of bone surrounded by water, it demanded that Varis come with him, and that the Princess was missing, meaning Azaerlea....the shrimp. Devils, beings described as so intelligent and cunning, this one especially by Azaerlea's own words barely had anything profound to say, and came alone to fight, even if it was a construct. Perhaps it was gaging our group's collective strength? I am but left guessing at motives or tactics besides a brick brained frontal assault fit for a demon based on Radegast's knowing's of devils.
     
    The talks after didn't help much either. It turns out this "clever" devil is part of some cabinet that was headed by the Archduchess "Glysaris", or former Chairwoman of Volcanor. I asked about who else is in the group, no real answer was given by Azaerlea. I swear devils sometimes, they never give you real, full truths, even if their own life depended on it or if you signed your soul away in some contract; always there is a lie twisted in or omission weaved in somehow.
     
    Those are my thoughts Empress Novia. We have arrived now at Sea Breeze, next stop being Foxhole, then to Frostweave. I wonder the extent of how the Immortal Flames and the Winter's Children will be using and abusing Kari's Reach as their own personal battlefield for dominance over each other. They both must be stopped, and any info on how we can go about doing that would be well served. That's my statement for now Empress.

    From the center of the sea:
    With faith to reach land."
