Ironsworn Session 14: Another Journey Begins

Valryc's status: Momentum: 4; Health: 5; Spirit: 5; Supply: 5 Valryc leaves the council chambers, head swimming from the excitement and trepidation that comes with such a serious task. The chance to finish what he started fills him with a desire to set off, yet this may keep him from Wrennsfall for even longer than his last mission. It may be that he never returns from this mission at all… Valryc shakes his head, pushing those thoughts from his mind as he makes his way back home. He feels confident that the council will take care of things for him while he is away. He can’t recall the last time someone has been tasked with such an important mission. The fate of Wrennsfall and all of the Ironlands could rest upon his shoulders. At least until he made it to Timbermount. But still, being trusted with such an important mission made him feel like the council must trust him a great deal. Forge a Bond - Valryc ha...

Ironsworn Session 13: The Council Calls

  Valryc's status: Momentum: 3; Health: 5; Spirit: 4; Supply: 3 After returning to Wrennsfall with Pendry, Valryc spends several days quietly resting at home. It's been so long since he had spent time quietly and comfortably at home that he revels in the chance to hide himself away for some time and recover from his last mission. The weight of his finding still weighs heavy on his mind though, making the pleasantness of his solitude brief. The distraction of tracking down the missing boy and returning him to his mother had been good for him, but now his thoughts wander. He thinks back to what he found in those ruins. The hieroglyphs seem to be burned into his memory as he thinks on the meaning behind them and the implication of the Shadiri’s interest as well. He still feels as if his mission is not finished. He found what the council had...

Ironsworn Session 12: A Cavern Delve

  Valryc's status: Momentum: 10; Health: 5; Spirit: 5; Supply: 4 Vow: Find the missing boy and bring him back to Wrennsfall: Progress 3  Valryc holds his torch high above his head as he hefts his bastard sword and makes his way into the cave system. He searches the ground, looking to find tracks that Pendry might have left as he retreated into the caves. “I don’t want to find out what the boy was running from… Hopefully we both can avoid it before the end of this.” He makes his way into the cave opening, the large mouth of the cave quickly closing into a narrow entrance. The cave reeks of rats and other foul creatures. Valryc looks grim, unsure if he’ll be able to find the boy alive in such a dangerous place. Delve the Depths - Valryc makes his way into the cave, searching for tracks to point him in the right direction. Roll +wits as he searches for the tracks left by the boy Str...

Ironsworn Session 11: The Long Wait

Valryc's status: Momentum: 6; Health: 5; Spirit: 5; Supply: 2   Valryc bides his time waiting for the council to summon him for his next assignment. He reports for duty but his commanding officer informs him that he has been given a week of leave after his long journey Valryc awakes from his restless sleep feeling worn out. He rolls out of bed, thinking on what to do next. “I suppose I best report for duty. It will be good for me to get back to routine. At least until the council summons me…”   He dresses in his uniform, still wearing the stains and tears from his long journey. “Might need to get this repaired. Or replaced I suppose,” he thinks to himself, examining the tears and rips in his travel worn tunic. He dons his leather armor after oiling it to a glistening shine. Shouldering his bastard sword, he sets off towards the training grounds where ...

He won’t have as much light to travel by after slaying the shadow beast and celebrating with the villagers, though he is thankful that he is leaving with a full belly and a speedy steed to make his journey much easier. “The day has brought good fortune thus far. Now, let us make all haste and ride for Wrennsfall!” With that he spurs on the borrowed horse, traveling with all haste homeward.
