Meranthe is under trouble times. It started with a raise of undeads and necromantic energies. Then a ritual that shook the leylines of the Peninsulla with uncontrolled chaos, causing a great disorder in the nature of things. And it never ceased, as more of them still happen in short success. The Sky of Meranthe has been witness of such regionwide effects, even the elements are revolting.

Different efforts are being made to solve these issues, such as crusade against Chaos, or the restoration of Solais. Yet, a question raises : will these efforts be enough to bring harmony, or will it escalate even further ? As the rituals evolve in potency, a concern raises with how far the material world could hold such powers in a short time.

It is then during his ressearch, that Svengalf found scriptures about the deceased Primordial Aschea. Goddess of Beauty, Family, Betrayal and Salvation, there was a mention that she was also worshipped as the Primordial of Balance outside of Meranthe,  in perticular by the ones called Teraphims. Little is mentionned about them,  but scriptures mention they are beings blessed by the Primordial, granting them the heart of crystal. Their culture being based upon the balance, they also were knowledgeable in the domains of spiritmancy, as many of them have departed to the Spirit Realm to find the essence of Aschea. Their ability to interract to the otherworlds, be it from Wayfinding or Spiritmancy for example, were also one of their qualities.

Yet, it is unsure on what has become to them today, as it was told that in 1700, the Teraphims returned to the Spirit Realm. Such event was done in the Vale, a holy place for their kin who recovered from the corruption of the Witchcraft, said to be sealed. But perhaps a path could be found towards it.

Perhaps inside the Vale or even on where would be left of their civilisaton, there could be clues on how to bring Balance into Meranthe, slow the escalation of power and perhaps reinforce the Lifestream against the threats, fitting for the ritual to restore Solais. But also, it would be the occasion to discover lost history and improve potentially the knowledge on different topics.

An expedition is prepared, hopefully to reach in time soon before the restoration of Solais.

Name : Svengalf Sandsker
Attendees : Around 4-5 people, still sending invites of such plans. They will be close relatives, either be from the Heavenly Blossom Church, family, and friends, who may be interest to travel to the other side of Aegis to learn history.
Risk : This will likely be a CoD considering the place we are going into.
Theme : Trials for Harmony and Balance. Teraphim/Aschea lore. Druidism, Lifestream, Spirits.
DM : Looking for one.
Rewards : Primary reward will be detailled in private. Secondary rewards can be anything related to the Lifestream/Aschea/Teraphim/Spiritmancy/Wayfinding/Druidism.

Note : Ideally, if the event could be done before the 17th February, it would be helpfull as this event plan is related with it. I would also be fine to split the event in two shorter halfs in case of schedule issues (I have GMT+1 timezones so I can't stay too long for events sadly during the week), so it could be possible to have the primary reward first in time.

This seems like a good opportunity to foreshadow an event I'm currently working on, so it would be convenient for me to take this.

I will draft a plan over the next few days to see if it would flow great, but I won't claim this event fully until I can be confident that I will be able to submit the plan 48 hours after full commitment.
