The Twiblight Saga

[tactical_alert]

WHO: Colin, Malcolm, D'Artagnan, The Priest, Daniel
WHAT: A traditionally anti-Inquisition Revered Mother is asking for help with darkspawn attacks. Let's go play hero and earn some goodwill! (OOC post here)
WHEN: Early Solace
WHERE: Churneau, northern Orlais
NOTES: Darkspawn creepiness, inevitable talk of war

Churneau, just northwest of Ghislain along the Highway, is a city that has seen better days. It appears as any other Orlesian city, with perhaps less of the flair and more Nevarran influence in some designs of buildings and roads, long since recovered from the Third Blight that so ravaged it Ages ago. But even approaching the city, you can see signs of recent neglect. And attack.

What doesn’t help is the thread of panic almost palpable once you hit the city limits and walk the streets yourselves. It’s not a steady stream, but you can follow a line of people heading for the chantry near the center of Churneau, those fleeing from the fighting, the encroaching war from the Anderfels, as well as those seeking refuge from the darkspawn attacks you know have been taking place beyond the borders of the city. Orlesians, Nevarrans, even Anders trying to avoid the conflict; men and women and children, young and old. Locals seem afraid to even be outside their homes, hurriedly doing their business and then heading back inside.

Best to follow the refugees in and speak to Revered Mother Riccarda.

Comments

[keenly]

"Make sure they don't infect you, either," Colin says flatly. He will gladly comfort the sick, but here, he would rather prevent than comfort. "The Blight spreads from infected to infected. If you are infected, you can spread it."
