If Phaedra's first two days in Ynnis had been a whirlwind she didn't even have words to express what the next three had been like. She'd completed her citizen registration, and then headed back to the inn, hoping to learn a little more about where she might seek out permanent employment in the city. She'd hardly been five steps through the door before she noticed an eccentric looking woman seating in a booth. Her clothing was all shades of purple, and awfully shiny. Silk, or satin, or ...

After Hel had dragged Kiki around to the fresh fish stall in the morning Kiki had been snoozing away back in bed. The sun came up and Hel stared out the window while she waited. She did doze off for a few minutes only to wake up with a stiff feeling in her neck. 'What is taking the girl so long?' Hel huffed pacing around the house a few times before deciding she had let the girl sleep long enough. She went and stuck her nose in the door to the bedroom where the girl lay and pushed it aside to...

Deidra sat idly thumbing the small passport book with one claw as she sipped her coffee and contemplated her options for the day. There was a document folded and tucked within the little booklet showing her citizenship of Ynnis. A young currier had dropped off the official version of the documents she had signed the night before, and she was pleased to have something that made her feel like she really belonged in the strange new country. It would also make traveling e...

The first day flew by in a furious torrent of new.  From the moment the pair stepped foot off the boat that had carried them to Itona, they couldn't so much as take a breath without encountering something new. The scents it carried, the taste, even the very feel of the air was so different from their old home, and Akadia was living for it. If it was up to her, she would have loved to spend every waking moment running through the city examining every little thing that caught her ever...

The last day had been a whirlwind for Phaedra. She'd descended the gangplank into a whole new life. She'd found directions to an inn near the docks and paid for a week of accommodations. Others who'd travelled with her on the ship had already left the city, heading further inland to Azzaru. They'd spoken at length about how prosperous the city was, build on mines that produced some sort of mineral that powered the steam carriages. But in truth, Phaedra could hardly picture a place more prospe...

Kiki woke up excited and eager to take on the day, today was they day she had been waiting for nearly her entire time here in Yinnis. The day to join one of the local guilds. She of course already knew the guild she wanted to choose but she still felt like she should stop by all the booths to see the options. After all these people had put much effort into getting their booths together and reading their pitches it would be down right rood to ignore them all and go straight to the booth she wa...

Nearly as soon as Kiki departed the ship her ever bubbly demeanor was met with delicious smells and the laughter of a bustling port town. She smiled at everyone she saw as she ate food and danced the night away. She was left in awe at the beautiful limestone buildings. Stars formed in her eyes as she thought of what brilliant architects the city must hold. Just marveling at their works made the dreary trip over worth it. She had spent the first few days immersing herself with the diverse loca...

Phaedra's fingertips brushed the smooth planks that made up the wall beside her bunk for a final time. She spent a moment imagining how many other travelers had done the same. This ship had been back and forth between Itona and the Old World for years and years, carrying hundreds of passengers each time. Everyone on their way to their new destinies on a foreign shore. A little shiver ran down her spine. Her imaginings were interrupted by deck hands above beginning to shout that they we...

"Crow, this was a mistake."   Akadia hung off the rail of the ship like a pouting child. Her hands held tight to the safety above her head while she crouched on the deck and stared with narrowed eyes out across the sea. It had become a common sight as of late.   The man with the dual-colored hair just sighed. "We've been over this. You have two options, shut up and be patient or figure out how to swim."   Akadia, sporting ...

It had been a very trying day for Deidra and her faithful sidekick Sir Snackers. She had hoped the initial handling class would help her form some sort of bond with the surly fat hound that had started following her around Ynnis, but if anything he was perhaps more disgruntled. All she had done was try putting a lead on him, and he had promptly chomped it to shreds. The rest of the class was mostly spent ensuring he didn't swallow the thing or bite her hand off. Hound...

It felt like it took a small eternity for the ship to dock and be readied for the passengers to disembark. Deidra stood impatiently on the deck, a pack slung over one shoulder and her messenger bag across her chest. She was more than ready to leave the bobbing ship and seasickness behind her for safe solid ground. It was early morning when they had arrived, with fog still obscuring the town and docks, but as the sun rose higher she could make out the movement of peopl...

Being on Itona meant trying a whole host of new things and devoting his time to the establishment of a new life. Ollie didn't know much about hounds, and spending so much time on land felt like an utterly different way of life. But he was determined to give it a try, eager to grow as he embraced all of the unfamiliar aspects of this place.   Ever since joining the trainer's guild, everything se...
