Lordsworn: Keeping the Ember Alive & Oaths Sworn (Session 2)

Keeping the Ember Alive: Xoti the Scarred Medic, Hestia the warm-Hearted Cook & Kai the Freshly-Promoted Lieutenant find another band of Lordsworn (of Lotyx the Eternal) recovering their dead and going through their funeral rites. What follows would be harrowing enough with their grief, but the shades of the long-departed gather around the pyre also...

Oaths Sworn: Wulfrid the Grizzled Veteran, Charlotte the Noble Knight and Sovan the Creed Guard advance to find a gallant knight holding a bridge against all-comers. The rearguard of his own retreating company Emont Legaarde is the childhood friend of Charlotte, but will they realise before their blades clash in anger?


You rode to war at the call of your God, swore yourself to Their divinity as the drums of war beat from every corner of the Pantheon. Standing beside your divinity, Their purpose so clear and noble, you felt immortal. Beside your fellow Lordsworns, you felt your victory a certainty, battle but a trivial formality.

Now They lay dead before you, Their Godblood flowing into the dirt. Already the world lurches in distress, twisting at the loss of a God, one of many to die this day. Your Captain, too, lies broken, entrusting the survivors of your Company to the you. Of the thousands who rode out, you are all that remains of your Company.

Your God is dead. You only have each other now.
