160: The Importance of Being Epic

Synopsis: (pending side completions)

Tyvis met with several of his fellow archdruids in Eglantine, discussing strategies for the inevitable confrontation with Sev Torban. They also located the world tree Tyvis transplanted from the Siege to the Wyld, safely hidden in the likeness of an unassuming tree amidst thousands in the Silverwood.

Isabella and Christopher visited Kaylan Gloriandel in the camp of the free elves, situated around the fallen Celinduil in the ruins of New Veluvia. Kaylan took the news of Thamior's demise better than could have been expected, though her love for the small glimmer of that noble prince would never diminish.

The prophet's efforts to resurrect the golden wyrm remain fruitless, though the late dragon's daughter Rees Duilbrood holds out hope. Isabella and Kaylan made political plans and reaffirmed their undying friendship to one another.

Kaylan also revealed her grandfather had visited her hours prior, and that he and her mother have gone ahead to Corellon to join with the Seldarine and begin transplanting the elven populace from Othyr to the virgin continent. Kaylan's best paladins were already en route to Hastur to retrieve Bella, who would go on ahead of herself and baby Christopher.

Later on, Narra and Tyvis met within the Lord Archdruid's alabaster pyramid to discuss the orphaned worlds which now took shelter in the light of Yg-Raya. A miraculous technology known as arks had allowed for the safe movement of whole planets and their moons, created, Narra surmised, by a civilization long since destroyed (neither the Ibha Varana or Anubians). The pair intended to approach Brilantium and Kr'llyand in hopes of forging peace and new allies before their enemies could do likewise. Narra also warned the planet Xoth was to remain off limits, as a deep-seated evil had overtaken the entire world.

On Brilantium, they encountered the native species, the empathic and joyful solara, as well as their more socially-savvy protectors in the mercury dragons. Narra learned the living arks were called leviathans, and Brilantiums whale-like leviathan was completely harmonized with the world it inhabited- a truly awe-inspiring and moving creature on an already awe-inspiring and moving world. Alliance was forged, sworn in the name of Oxozebius, elder mercury dragon, and The Seven Dawns, some sort of deciding body of the solara.

Eilessa secluded herself in The Sunny Side Inn's royal suite and began unlocking the mysteries of Kostitchtie's torc with the aid of Nimue (Heart of Heaven), intending to transform the soul-trapping amulet into her own divine plane. She was interrupted by a strange character claiming to be a failed star child, drawn by her renewed divinity as a goddess to wanderers and the weary. He called himself Caiphon.

And a young woman emerged from the shores of St. Sulpice, making her way to Saspien with all haste.
