Picking up where we last left off, the Tempests are deep within the Orc Lands. With their promise to Lakin kept, and a new task given to them by Ceto, they had many things to plan for. After plotting their course, they tasked Cassie with heading North West towards the Gloomwren pass that would allow them egress into the desert where their adventure first began. With Lakin now amongst the living, Zaan wanted to introduce the re-born Orc to Fern's cafe, only to find the passageway through the pantry collapsed.

Trying and failing to not panic, Zaan desperately reached out to his booty call and see what was going on. According to the Tabaxi Lieutenant, things were bad in Harpermere. The King and Queen were dead and things were in turmoil. Only after Pez questioned why Zaan thought to check on Yvonne and not Fern, did he realize that he was a dumbass and contacted one of their closest friends. Fern claimed to be okay, but there was much going on and little time to converse past the one spell.

Pez then took a moment to use the book of sending to contact his Sister in the West. Though she was reportedly safe, she expressed concerns with the world's current state as well. A behemoth of a beast was reportedly roaming around the desert, laying waste to anything and everything around the main railway.

To take their minds off of things for a while, and also to try out his new gifts, Lakin challenged Zaan to a friendly duel that got a bit more heated than Lakin was expecting and quickly put the rabbit in his place.

Later the next day, the Tempests came upon a bridge that would allow them to cross the river that splits the region down the middle... guarded by a single goblin. They spent little time in wording their way around the goblin's senses and convinced him that he was far superior than the rest of his clan and sent him on his way. Crossing the bridge with ease, Pez and Lakin took a moment to destroy the bridge to further hinder the orc clans and continued North again.

We rejoin them now at the 'dawn' of a new day amidst a torrential downpour as they attempt to find their way towards Gloomwren pass.

Last we left off, the Tempests were deep in orcish lands, their target: The Bloodmoon Clan. But an outright assault wasn't the plan. First, they would take out the chief known as Ta Bloodrage. Approaching the encampment from the water, the Tempests snuck in close, then gave the signal to Bogbo to begin his distraction. And what a distraction it was! The little goblin unleashed the air elemental lent to him to lay waste to the outskirts of the clan's base.

The ruckus drew the attention of the rest of the Bloodmoon clan, include Ta, which drew the chief out of her abode and into the open. The Tempests wasted little time in assaulting the orc chieftess. She was not so easily killed however, and appeared to be quite powerful, creating duplicates of herself around the village and slipping through the fingers of the Tempests at every turn... Until Ta Bloodrage cried out in frustration and dropped her facade. The image of a ritualistic female orc dropped, revealing the visage of The Speaker as he summoned more of his wordlings to surround Zaan. So focused was he on Zaan however, he didn't notice Moriko coming up behind him in her water elemental form and WHELMED HIM. With no way to speak, the Speaker was trapped within the elemental and was an easy target for Pez's fireball spell which ended the Speaker in a boiling tomb.

As the rest of the Tempests gathered to discuss their next steps, Lakin took off to assist Bogbo in finishing off the rest of the Bloodmoon Clan. With the remaining Bloodmoons scattered and fleeing, the party considered the job complete and headed back to their wagon, Cassie. Along the way, Lakin felt an urgent pull that had him straying towards the water. Urging his fellows to go back to the wagon, Lakin took off for the water's edge and found Ceto there waiting for him in her colossal form. The sea goddess brought mostly bad tidings for Lakin.. The world was in turmoil. Many of her brethren deities were missing, or in the case of Coyote, in hiding, after being attacked by Saedhir's minions. In light of all that had occurred, Ceto considered her bargain with Lakin complete in the hopes that her champion would be able to turn his rage towards Saedhir and his followers instead. Ceto then granted Lakin's desire and returned his life to him. No longer an undead orc, Lakin took his time returning to the wagon to meet his very surprised party members.

We rejoin them now as they travel through the night to the north, Lakin laying nekkid on the roof and sleeping for the first time in centuries.

Picking up where we last left off, things in the world of Archeron are getting worse. After thoroughly defeating the Bloodmoon Clan patrol, Lakin yoinked a soul and a body from the slain which allowed him to do a little spiritual reconnaissance and quite possibly invent a new war crime. It's not a war crime the first time however, and Lakin diligently started to stitch the goblin corpse back together after firing it out of a cannon at a nearby tree. The Tempests began moving South once more, heading deeper into Bloodmoon territory and began discussing their tactics for assaulting the encampment. During the discussion, talks arose once more about the dwindling magic capabilities of the locals, and Zaan asked Lakin to commune with Cadall so the harengon could ask a few questions. The connection made, the speaker was not who Zaan expected. What seemed to be Saedhir spoke back in monosyllabic desire and hunger. Thoroughly freaked out, the spell ended with Lakin experiencing hunger for the first time in centuries and proceeded to try and eat Zaan's meat stores while still incorporeal.

With more questions than answers, the Tempests continued south to finish the job they were certain they could handle at the moment. Choosing to take the stealthier route to remove the head of the clan, Ta Bloodrage, rather than assaulting the camp head on. Because as Bogbo claimed, "Take out the leaders and the little ones scatter."

We rejoin them now with about half a day's journey left until they reach the Bloodmoon Clan's camp.

Last time on the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests made their way into the Orc Lands and rescued Pez's forever friend and companion, Hambjerger, a small velociraptor who now seemed capable of growing to immense size after his rebirth thanks to a blessing given to him by the deity, Coyote. But the Tempests weren't done here. Lakin has a task left to complete. A promise. A Pact made with the deity Ceto to eliminate a tribe known as the Bloodmoon Clan who were polluting her shores. Returning to the Mountaintooth clan to report their successful hunt, many unknowns and uncertainties made themselves known. Their guide Bogbo seemed to have lost his ability to manifest his psychic daggers. Rellka the Shaman of the Mountaintooth clan felt uneasy, and when prompted, seemed unable to cast her own magic. - Pez's spells seemed to falter and struggle to complete. Many attempts to speak with the party's individual deities were made, and many did not answer. Though a bit shaken by these events, the Tempests had made a promise to help Lakin with his task, and they intended to see that promise through. The Tempests headed south towards the Bloodmoon clan and came upon a patrol heading north. Lakin, Pez, and Bogbo flew out to investigate and kidnapped one of the goblins in the patrol to question them. When the goblin's usefulness came to an end, he was promptly dealt with by letting gravity do it's job. We rejoin them now as Pez finishes tossing a fireball at the patrol and eliminates a sizeable chunk of their forces.

Picking up where we last left off, the Tempests returned to the continent of Drago to find an old friend, and to commit a wee bit'o genocide. After a short stint in High Tide to give their sentient cart Cassie some upgrades, they headed inland to the Orc Tribe's territory. Their guide, Bogbo, led them north along the foot of the mountains to find the Mountaintooth clan, who were widely regarded as the smartest group of greenskins. Though irritating, the Mountaintooth Chieftain gave them directions on where to find a so-called 'White Death' that was new to the area and was causing them some strife, namely displacing an infamous creature known as an Aashkaht.

Tracking the White Death to 'The Old Vein', an abandoned mine owned by the Mountaintooth clan, they discovered that this new beastie was their resurrected friend Hambjerger: A murderous little velociraptor and forever friend and companion of Pez. Returning to Cassie, the Tempests found that she was under attack by an Aashkaht and quickly leapt to her rescue. Though it was a formidable beast, it was no match for the Tempests and Hambjerger who seems to have gained the ability to grow in size.

We rejoin the Tempests now as they return to the Mountaintooth Clan after slaying the Aashkaht and night begins to fall.

Last we left off, the Tempests returned to Drago, making a lengthy pitstop in High Tide, the pirate stronghold, to make a few upgrades to their sentient wagon before heading off into the Orc Lands. After almost a week of waiting, everything was set for the next leg of their adventure, with Cassie gaining six new legs to play with! They headed across the mountains with Bogbo as their guide and very quickly came upon signs of a legendary beast's territory: the Aashkaht. But the Tempests weren't about to let a mythical beast slow them down. No sir! Onward they traveled in search of the nearest Orc encampment belonging to the Mountaintooth Clan. Though they arrived late in the evening, the Tempests were allowed to stay outside the clan's settlement until the morning, wherein they encountered a rather unpleasant goblin chief, Clorm. After numerous threats of putting the goblin in Lakin's soul cage, they learned of another creature encroaching on the Aashkaht's territory, causing the fire beast to travel further south and harass the Mountaintooth clan. Based on the vague descriptions given, the Tempests assumed it was their kobold's reincarnated companion Hambjerger and set off to see if this was, in fact, their little velociraptor. We rejoin them now as they head further north in search of 'The Old Vein', a mine that this White Death had taken as their lair.

Picking up where we last left off, the Tempests finally managed to return to the continent of Drago, making landfall once more in High Tide. With one more leg of their journey complete, they began planning for their next one: venturing into the orc lands to find a friend and to eliminate a couple tribes. But the journey won’t be easy. They’re planning on taking their sentient cart Cassie with them, though the danger of her getting stuck is high. But Pez has a plan! Why not cart with legs instead of wheels? And so, designs were drawn, materials bought, and artisans commissioned to upgrade the cart to survive the marshy, swamp-like region of the desolate orc lands. Under the advice of Volcaro, they enlisted the help of a Goblin that is said to be their best choice for a guide. Impulsive, smelly, easily convinced, and a bit sticky fingered, Bogbo was hired to help lead them through the orc lands to their destinations and beyond. We rejoin them now as time slips by and their plans get underway.

Last we left off, the Tempests were making their way West across the Alboran Sea to get back to the continent of Drago. There waited a misplaced friend, and a couple clans of greenskins that Lakin was charged with wiping off the map. The journey was anything but smooth sailing, but in the end, it was nothing the Tempests couldn't handle! The final hurdle was making it across the wide expanse of water to get to High Tide, the pirate stronghold. Though it would seem like the request would be somewhat difficult, Kasumi requested a favor from the local thieves guild. The request was graciously granted, and the Velvet Dagger called in a favor of his own to have a ship take the Tempests and their Wagon Home to the other side of the world. Climbing aboard the Mirthless Gull, they set off for High Tide! Along the way, Pez and Lakin began working on a cursed project... Giving Cassie, their Wagon home, LEGS! Though a bit short on materials, the design was in place and progress underway. We rejoin them now after a week of being on the water with High Tide coming into view.
