Finally, we finished sorting out the rooms on the first floor and moved on to the second. Honestly, I couldn’t tell much difference after all the cleaning. Everything still looked just as gloomy and grim, and the empty display cases, sideboards, and bookcases stared out at the shadows with dull glass, making it feel like the place had been ran...

Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote

After two hours of rotor noise and collective silence, we landed at another rinky-dink airport that looked like it had been abandoned by civilization sometime in the '70s. Then we switched to a small plane that matched the setti...

Watching Master Smith Hewg at work had been fascinating from the start, yet even after weeks, months, a year—perhaps longer—it never truly lost its allure. The old smith was an artist; there was simply no other way to describe the weapons he crafted for the Tarnished.
Drawing raw material from smithing stones, Hewg transformed even the...
