Your starting positions: The Soldier and the Rebel (SonofJET and Catharyn) - The Soldier is still in training, but he is also part of the Sixth Division of the Balenian army. This division has been ordered to proceed to the rather troublesome village of Marne where the Rebel girl is rumoured to have gathered a small peasant army. The Rebel is planning to 'liberate' the village by barring entry for tax collectors and merchant wagons. The Sixth Division is composed of mostly mounted knights and a small company of swordsmen and archers and they are to capture the Rebel girl and bring her in chains to Parna, the capital. Will she be captured? The Outcast and the Apprentice (Halvtand and CraftWork) - The Outcast has been cast out of the desert and she cannot go back till a year and a day has passed. She is in hostile Gurgan territory, trekking through the rugged mountains, hunting the occasional rabbit or stealing sheep from isolated farms. She is currently hiding in the Black Hills. The Apprentice and his father live nearby. The Apprentice has just had his first Outburst (accidental usage of the Spark) and his father suspects rightly that the kid may be a Shuna. Will he make it out of Gurgan and into White Island without being caught out by the superstitious Gurgans who hate people who can touch the Spark? The road is long and treacherous, and it would be foolish to attempt such a journey without a good pair of fighting hands. The Princess and the Sendai (AmazinglyVivid and Joos) - The Sendai's first stop is Elband, to deliver a secret letter to the Queen. She has another mission, to verify the truth in the prophecy, to establish a link between the first line and the Princess. The Princess, meanwhile, is getting ready to leave with her entourage to the White Island for her training. Will the Sendai validate the prophecy and start the chain of events leading to total destruction?
