Join The Rebellion

Join The Rebellion

"This message from the Stone's Throw network was recorded and archived by Doctor Amber Solari during her time as a student and provided 15 years after the fact, admitting her involvement in the events of 548 in the since dismantled Salidawn Conservatoire. Fronted by controversial rebel figure and alleged terror activist, Mabel May Mortimer, this message was recorded circa the 3rd-5th of Remember. Sometime between the occult disappearance of Possibly Mortimer and the catastrophic events that followed in the incurring week. Such events led to the establishment of numerous rebel cells, the murder of a prominent city official and the mass psychic event known most simply to historians as The Joining. How a slim span of seven days could create such lasting ramifications on the world as we know it is maddening to consider. But, as I'm sure you are all well aware, the Mortimers do not handle history with safety gloves. They handle it with hammers." - An Audio-Visual History of the Dispersion and its Ramifications. Curated by Archivist Isaac Payne and displayed in 578 at the Tramelite Museum of Arinaris-Ro.

Tales of Tanamai #16: "The Battle of Silver & Fair"

"How deep into the mirror do your darkest fears lie? Are they there upon your face, or just behind the eyes? Do they rest in boxes long forgotten, covered in dust and elm wood rotten? Some day, the running will end and you will see that the mirror is nothing but glass. Perhaps by then, you will know yourself. Perhaps by then, I will know myself. I hope. I hope. I hope. One day I will tell this tale for the last time and the Mortimers will know that every triumph was a tragedy in waiting, and every tragedy a triumph of fate. One day, they will know as much as I do, and I shall know as much as them. I hope - as always - that she will remember me. But until that day... a cardinal flies overhead. The streets smell like rain. My old hands are the youngest they will ever be. There are beautiful things to write about. At times like this, the joy is not so misty." - From the diaries of the poet Lorenzo.

Tales of Tanamai #15: "Through The Putrid Glass"

Part 1 of a Grand Season Finale. Once upon a time, there was a woman called Ilse, and she - much to her despair - had fallen terribly in love with a man. Once upon a time, there will be a bard called Lorenzo, and he - much to his delight - is falling terribly in love with a woman. But those are just are just fairytales from long ago and far away, Tomorrow and Yesterday. For now, it is the age of a family they called The Mortimers whose fates bore a terrible hand. For now, it is the story of a shattered Glass, and the hungry hate that feeds him. For now, The Mortimers are a dead family walking. For now, The Mortimers are blind to the enormity of the lives they will one day lead. For now... it starts here - as the historians say - in The Undercroft, fifteen years after the Dispersion when everything went wrong. When a group of adventurers dared to ask - against all their better judgement and the amassed forces of evil that would stand in their way - Where. Is. Valeria. Pfeiffer?
