Re: Trog's Tavern: Roman Numerals Are Dumb

"...Hm." The old man stares the two of them down, Raheeda in particular, as he absorbs the report. "...Well. I can not say that was unexpected. We did not part on amiable terms." Pax leans forward, cupping his hands around the black stone sphere in his hands. "You will be co...

[Charity Dinner] "We're good on that front." Braon replies quickly, turning her attention back to Atya and doing her best to not look like she's anticipating an awkward conversation. Or guilty. She definitely doesn't want to look guilty. Especially as she hasn't actually done anything wro...

Re: Trog's Tavern: Roman Numerals Are Dumb

It doesn't take long for Pax to respond. Or, rather, for Pax and his entourage to respond. The Onyx King's arrival is heralded by the sound of heavy metal boots on the stairs, reverberating with intimidating unity against the boards. Two headless suits of armor appear at the top of the stairs, follo...
