Ya know, I was wondering why you felt so familiar. Man Grey Crossing, that was five years ago wasn’t it? Dayum how time flies. I think I remember Malakaus back then just being a humble lil blacksmith.

As for keeping things in Free, I’d say we keep it free. I post big slabs of texts just cuz I feel like it; being free means I have more flexibility about what I wanna write, as oppose to casual or advanaced that makes it so that you [i]need[/i] to post relevant information. Like 80% of my posts are just needless fluff and I like it like that.

Anyways as for a summary, Annabeth woke up and offered Maren some soup. Malakaus and his boyz are at their camp getting ready for another fight while he sent a messenger to talk to Marrn about stuff. Cassius, Demitri, and Skurr met up and helped around town before meeting with Monika. Monika was bunkering down in her shop when she found out her master is gone and she has questions about that. El also just showed up into town and plans to help out the townsfolk. She just dropped off some of the wounded at the chapel. Lastly Hark and his band arrived, took over a caravan, and are now infiltrating town to find out what happened to Maren.
