Though the dungeons are well-trodden in the Age of Coursers, they are too vast to avoid getting lost occasionally. How is your sense of direction? What do you do when you realize you don’t know where you are? Ginea's whole life has been spent in the dungeon - abandoned as a foal and left to fend for herself - so she seldom gets lost within the depths, even with her lack of vision. She knows most of its obvious tunnels and caverns, the ones frequented by adventurers with reco...

"Every bone half-buried on the battlefield was picked clean long ago, but still, crows land on them. At least… They look like crows from afar. Do you get closer? What do you see?" ✦ Gauss moved cautiously across the battlefield, his sharp eyes scanning the desolate expanse. Bones jutted from the earth like jagged teeth, their surfaces bleached and brittle from years of exposure. The Moor of Sleep stretched endlessly, shrouded in mist, the silenc...

"Skeletal remains of humanoids and Coursers alike are a common sight on the Moor, but you’ve stumbled upon a pair of them in a strange pose. The human’s arms are wrapped around the Courser’s skull, their foreheads touching one another. How does this strike you?" ✦ Gauss moved silently through the thick mist of the Moor, his hooves pressing into the damp earth with practiced care. The air was still, heavy with the eerie weight that never left this pla...

"You come across a partially-collapsed tower, perilous but possible to climb. After spirals and spirals of half-eaten stone steps, you make it to the roof. Over the top of the parapet, the entire battlefield is visible, and the wreckage is more vast than you had ever imagined. You cannot see a patch untouched. How do you feel when confronted with the true scope of the destruction?" ✦ Gauss stood at the base of the tower, his sharp eyes tracing the crumbling stonewo...

"Much of the regalia you find torn and bloodied across the battlefield bears the same sigil – a pentacle with two Coursers’ heads laid over it, each appearing to bite the other in the neck. What do you make of this odd symbol?" ✦ Gauss halted, his hooves sinking slightly into the damp, spongy earth of the Moor. Ahead of him, torn banners and scraps of armor lay scattered like leaves after a storm. Each piece bore the same sigil: a pentacle with two Cou...

Crispin finished touring the entire fort and was now having a meal when Jordan asked him to take a couple of newer members into the furnace. "They have only been here and the surface," Jordan explained, "Quill has been in charge of training them but their necromancy has not been properly field tested." "I didn't see Quill here, in fact ... or any of the rest of the eleven.....

Amir continued on in the caverns and wound up in a cave with a huge pool of water and an even larger toad. It looked far too big to be real and it was staring at him with an indiscernible look. Not that Amir particularly considered himself to be an expert on frog emotions. "Hey courser!" it croaked. Amir sighed in his heart. Great, it is sentient too. This is going to be either very nice or go awry very fast. "Hello!" "You have the touch of nature o...

Calix and Kamphire set out on the moor with Casey ranging in front of them. The curious foal had spent nearly ten minutes fascinated by the red hue of the water and was now running from bush to bush with the wisp, peeking under it to see if she could find anything. Following leisurely behind her, Calix and Kamphire who now found themselves as new parents, were still talking about the next steps they would take....

The heat of the levels below the Caverns was already impossible to ignore and Mars had barely begun her descent. The Furnace and all its volcanic offerings lay just ahead, though she knew better than to face this new depth alone. Mars may have been self confident to a fault, but she wasn't an idiot.  Waiting atop a crumbling stone overlook, Terrence stood backlit by the dancing glow of the magma rivers below. His athletic frame perfectly outlined, Mars couldn't help but steal a linger...
