    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    They all come into the light [ROUND 1]
    #1
    The darkness has continued, leeching away the warmth of spring and summer, sickening the plants and spoiling the waters. The monsters thrive in this environment, rejoicing in the slow decay of Beqanna into a home more suited for their kind. Carcasses can be found most anywhere, and the scent of rotting flesh and dying flora hang thick in the unnaturally humid air. There is an overabundance of fear and worry, too much even for the escaped creatures to consume, and so new monsters have begun to form, shadows in their infancy that creep along the earth like vivacious smoke.

    This is not the first world that the monsters have taken, and it will not be the last.

    They have never lost their grasp on a world once released into it, and as the many little ones scurry about with furious and rabid haste, the older beasts sprawl languidly across the mountains of Hyaline and jungles of Tephra, looking only to their next meal.

    The fairies have been so silent, and only right now does it become clear why.

    Only now, just as you’re falling asleep, do you hear their cry for help. They sound tired, weary, and though their call comes with the unmistakable brush of magic, that too feels weak. Do you answer the call and come to the base of the Mountain to help save Beqanna from what your kind have done to it?

    Are you here to help return light to the world plunged into darkness, or have you come for more nefarious reasons - to sabotage the attempt, perhaps?


    <i>Happy Questing!! Some notes:
    - Describe your character receiving the call from the Fairies and why they choose to answer it in 1000 words or less. Include how they have dealt with the eclipse’s darkness and their encounters with monsters in the past.
    - End with your horse arriving at the base of the mountain .
    - You’re aware of the others, but interaction with them is up to you.
    - This is an elimination quest, and you may withdraw at any time with no penalty.
    - death and maiming are possible, but death will not be permanent (unless you want it to be).
    - No limit on entries, but one entry per player.
    - Entries are due by 11:59 PM CST on Sunday, February 21st (aka Sunday night just before midnight)
    - Message us here or on Discord if you have any other questions!</i>
