The Herald Posting Chain

Tarion, Lotesse 7, year 109 Happy Spring! Court Notes: There is another reminder about fairy circles. If you see any mushrooms, flowers, or other similar fauna in a circle, do not touch them, step inside of them, for obvious reasons. There was one located north, and it is currently being investigated. The Kingdom will be doing some tests and training drills over a period of time, so do not be alarmed if you come across any increased presence of kingdom officials, as that is why they are around! Expect an update to the lawbooks. Once it is done and copies are ready to be picked up, there will be postings to inform all about it.

It has been three months since the voyage to put an end to the weird weather phenomena and around this time, the three vessels should be at their destination. Before they left, the Herald interviewed a few of the goers to get an idea of what they could expect. First up is Ko'Maroo, an extremely talented tinkerer. When asked what she was bringing, it was focused a lot on alchemicals and encounters for known threats. Sirens, sea beasts, and even common illnesses. She brought a notebook to take detailed notes and maybe some sketches of things as well as plenty of bags to store anything she came across that was new and exciting. She has high hopes that this will be resolved with the teamwork of the different skilled people joining the voyage. She made note of the beauty of such a thing, and with a final quote to give out to everyone: "50 years ago the Kingdom was locked in a war, twenty alchemy and tinkering were threadbare and magic was not fully understood like today. A few months ago, we all figured out how to end the unnaturally long winters, imagine what tomorrow will bring." Another passenger is a Kurol known by Cordelia! She along with most people, has high hopes to resolve and end the weather oddities. They are working with the three crews. She has experience traveling the ocean, as it is home to her like the land is home to majority of us other races. On another note, she feels this device might be related to a problem in her underwater home. She is working to represent the Kurol to put an end to threats her and her people have faced for many years. Ice Monsters, Whirlpools, and giant blocks of ice covering many things out in the ocean. When asked what threats she expected the first thing that came to mind was pirates. There was mention of sea beasts, but there is trust in the whale clickers to dissuade any such problems. She also has a new set of fancy armor that she had requested for this trip and has trust in its make. She does give an apology that her well-checking duties will be on pause during her absence. She also says she hopes everyone strives to make sure that all should work to give love to everyone however and whenever people can. Lastly, we have words from one of the captains of the ships, Lord Melviir Qorinvayas, Knight of the Realm. The Lord is captain of the Black Velvet with his crew. Many know that his house are known for sailing for many years. His father, Lord Enduil Qorinvayas, sailed the as the second to an Arrynlocke captain during the war. As well as his mother, Lady Laenalla, explored the shallows as retainers to House Fingal. He spoke highly of his father and mother, showing that he carries his duties with pride and honor. Preparations for him were second nature, years of experience ensured everything was correct, even for navigation. Astrolobes, star charts, sextants, and years of skill building will ensure he along with others safely navigates to their destination and back home to share all of one's experiences from the six-month journey. He brought up that the three ships were sailing to unknown territory. Challenges will be far and wide, truly unable to properly prepare for all. Yet many common things will be brought. Alchemies that allow one to breathe underwater. Candies to help with sea sickness. Plenty of rations and magic-able individuals to ensure clean water is always available. We can expect our heroes to return in three months time so long as the wind is in their favor. To those families who has members out at sea, trust in those who are with them that everyone will return home safe and sound.
