5/1 Hail the Conquering Heroes

On the feast of Summerday, newly crowned Queen Adrianna Pentaghast holds a citywide celebration to honor the returning troops as well as those who gave their lives to end the Blight.

5/4 The Armistice Breaks

Worrisome news continues to trickle back from the front long after the Wardens’ departure. The Tevene army continues to occupy Hunter Fell, with fighting breaking out along the Minanter River and the Orlesian army marching east to Nevarra City instead of returning to the Empire.

5/10 Escape from Cumberland

Desperate to return to her clan, Iveani Ralaferin recruits Cassidy and Raziya Nadhari to help steal her phylactery and spirit her away from the city. Although they manage to make it in and out of the Circle unnoticed, in the subsequent days, Cumberland’s communication network begins to malfunction, possibly due to the effects of the artefact used to open the magical seal on the phylactery chamber.

5/15 One If By Land, Two If By Sea

With the situation in Nevarra rapidly deteriorating, Raziya Nadhari takes matters into her own hands and kidnaps Alia Pentaghast before she can fall to an Orlesian assassin. The queen is smuggled out of the country in the nick of time to avoid a pincer attack by Orlesian ground and naval forces.

5/31 The Fate of Nevarra

In 3:65 Towers, 40 years after losing its independence, Nevarra rallies behind a new leader.

Early in the month the Warden outpost experienced a darkspawn outbreak, which coincided with the surfacing of the archdemon Toth in Hunter Fell. Although the Wardens were able to push back the incursion, Warden Commander Frieda Ortan ordered the Deep Roads entrance sealed and gathered her remaining forces for a march to the front.

Things in Cumberland were quiet for a time, though with the majority of able-bodied fighters gone, a few enterprising bandits began terrorizing travelers on the Imperial highway. Fortunately, three brave volunteers, along with a pair of unexpected helpers, were able to eradicate the threat. Meanwhile, Ivenai Ralaferin encountered members of her clan on the road, and with their assistance, she and several others were able to resolve an issue involving missing mages.

Of course, this was the calm before the storm. The darkspawn attacked Cumberland from underground, resulting in chaos and destruction, not to mention the death of King Markus Pentaghast. The attack continued as the gathered armies challenged the horde at Hunter Fell in a bloody battle that lasted throughout the day, until Caspian Pentaghast succeeded in slaying the archdemon.

But despite the eradication of the darkspawn threat, it seems Nevarra’s problems aren’t over yet...
