  • Party of three

    I set out to find answers , but the further I get from home, it seems like the more questions I find. One good thing, though is that Tomsk’s friend Fiera has agreed to travel to Bern to try to help with the glitches they are experiencing, they are catching a sled most of the…

  • Vandalism and Sedition

    Well that was quite an eventful couple of days! We are all staying at the Aethri token house and I am so grateful to Elyr and the Token Bearers for giving me the protection of the Sodality. Without them I don’t know if I would have been able to convince Vivia Thorne that I wasn’t…

  • Capture

    For the record it is Elyr writing this entry. I feel it is essential that I record the happenings of the past day, so that the details will be preserved, should we become separated from this journal in future. I am writing this from the Aethri Token House in Kethra as it seemed the safest…

  • Flight

    On our second morning in Kethra, Elyr and I met up with Tomsk and his Aethri colleague, Fiera in a small artisan tech gallery that did the most brilliant hot chocolate I’d had since leaving Bern! As we sat down I noticed that there was a bear motif on the edge of the table, I…

  • The Forge Ring

    The Forge Ring is absolutely magnificent! We made our way there after breakfast and as we walked in we just stood and stared, there was so much going on, and it was so big. I think it is the biggest single building I have ever been in. The walls were lined with crafts people in…

  • Regrouping

    After we left the garden we retraced our steps to an older part of Kethra that had less of the synthetic Skein tech and found ourselves a room to rest and make a plan of action. I couldn’t shake the feeling that we were in danger, the abrasiveness and menace of the strange building seemed…

  • Kethra

    We started to see Kethra in the distance almost a whole day before we got to the edge of it! It is far bigger than I expected, much bigger than Eldran! It had an intriguing look about it, there was evidence of construction even from that far away, but at the same time things didn’t…

  • The Road to Kethra

    The bear is back. He was standing a little way along the road when we set out for Kethra. When we spotted him I felt a warm flood of emotion from Elyr, a sort of happiness mixed with relief, similar to what I was feeling, the bear thinks we are doing the right thing. When…

  • Decisions

    We stayed at Elyr’s home again overnight, and spent another long, pleasant evening talking through what we learned in the Echo Keeper’s chamber. The name Threadwarden interests me, and the concept of threadmapping, it sounds like something I need to find out more about! I think this could help me understand the connections between goose…

  • The Echo Keeper

    We stayed the night in Elyr’s home, I was delighted to find out that the Aethri do have very comfy spare bedrooms! We stayed up far too late into the night talking and practicing resonance communication. Elyr says I can get above a whisper now. It’s like learning to speak again I think, although I…
