The Missive

Ride with Revchari to Remake the World

Intervention Overview

Veteran Penitents Doric and Sennic--joined by a relative newcomer, Ooraski Hiklevik, called Oorah--are dispatched via The Bunkhouse to an unfamiliar land called Dhalhaslena, which means "Furious Dawn" in a forgotten language. This badland is replete with "relics," which appear to be mobile machines capable of transport and destruction. There, they met Revchari who wishes to free her people from the firm grip of the warlord Perpetua Skeldander. To do so, she requires aid to take the relics and get them to the "Hollow Place," and then use their gift--the powerful engines that make war possible--to remake the world not in conflict, but in peace. The Penitents agreed to ride with her, and set off to the Hollow Place, chased by the warriors of Skeldander. These forces were repelled and Revchari and her people were successfully delivered to the Hollow Place to set about making a more just, verdant world.

Salient Details

• One of Skeldander's minions was able to be befriended by our heroes. Time will tell what legend Slabchest the Reaver will etch into history.
• Eventually, it became clear that our Penitents were transported either to a Keshloam of the distant past or a Keshloam of the far future. Doric was able to discern that they were somewhere in central Keshloam, probably in territory currently claimed by the Alerki Ascendency.
