There's no Ep.Ch planned for Alexanja at the moment v:

19877
Two questions: 1, will Seyena and Valor get S rank Support before EpiChap 0?

2, will Silverio and his loser gang of losers that I hate because they're jerks gonna have the same stats?

* BMM42 joins in on that sweet grouphug

Ep.Ch.0 occurs several days after the Epilogue; so no rank S for ya by then. You will have rank S in Ep.Ch.A

Again, too soon for them to do any viable training montage - stats will be the same :P

19878
And so we all have finished the murderous adventure filled with crazy witches and magical gemstones of Dragons.

I would like to thank everyone involved, be they hardened veterans or just one-chapter insertions! Without you, this game wouldn't get anywhere. And without FEF1, I doubt that any of currently running games would launch and gather as much interest as they have now; this includes both games GM'd by me as well as games GM'd by others, some of them players of FEF1 after all.

I have this weird mix of accomplishment, sadness, excitement and disbelief in me now. And I have to squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~

Like Anja said in IC Thread - I will start with Epilogue Chapters tomorrow. First on the list is:

Epilogue Chapter Zero - Revenge before Honour, starring Valor Inara (BMM42) and Seyena Ikane (Gamerboy4life).

PS: OH RIGHT NOW THAT WE'RE FINISHED: Aaaaaany questions regarding the game, lore, whatever? You can ask freely now :D

~~EPILOGUE~~

And so, the evil in the form of Prixima Kesselring and her vile experiments on the sacred Dragonstones have been destroyed. The world has been saved, albeit the world surely won't care that much, the nations embroiled in conflicts and citizens worrying about their own problems. They won't know of the heroes that destroyed the witch unless some bard tells them a tale for a coin.

~~~

And speaking of the heroes, where did they go? How did their history unravel after they have parted ways?...

Charlotte and Gregor von Hexham
After fulfilling Gregor's promise to Chris, he and Charlotte wandered until they found a peaceful village.
Their reputation caught up to them, but after a few more adventures, they settled down for a life of peace and quiet.
After many years of living together but without children, and with days growing ominously darker, Gregor finally became a father - and within five years, he found out it was only the first of three children on the way.


Ami and Christopher Shields
Chris and Ami returned to the cave where their lives first intersected.
It is not known what they discovered there, but eventually they returned to the Forsaken Lands, where they settled down and passed their skills on to a new generation.
Their future life dissappears from the pages of history, and little is known about their daughter, a skilled priestess on her own.


Raquel and Derick Torriani
Derick and Raquel traveled to Ys after Prixima's death, bearing a portion of the wealth of knowledge from Prixima's libraries. 
However, Derick still had unfinished business to take care of, and so the two journeyed together to Mercia to help the spirit of the murdered Sarius rest in peace at last.
After lengthy time traveling together, they've finally settled in Deynastian city of Troi, where the two married and Derick took on the name Torriani; he began schooling youths in swordfighting while his wife took care of local arcane library.


Seyena and Valor Inara
After the siege of Kesselring, Valor and Seyena retired to a small farm in the Mercian lowlands.
A little less than a year after the incident, they had a child, Hector, a healthy baby boy.
He, as well as his younger sister, became a pair of travelling mercenaries just like their parents once.


Anja and Alexander Jorinn
With Prixima dead and the group dispersed, Alexander turned to protecting family.
With his wife Anja, they had thirteen children: twelve daughters and one son (the youngest).
In the future, they would form Alex's Legion, and battle the mages of Magic Wars until their history abruptly ends, and no one can tell what happened.


Olison Eul
With the witch dead and his promises fulfilled, Olison bid kind farewells to his companions and made his way back into his home of Berebia with fellow kinsman Salvatore.
Perhaps, in due time, he could gather new allies and write history again, bringing stability back to his eastern homelands in the wake of his lord Ferwelk's fall.
Later in his life, he finally settled down, acquired a neat parcel of land and lovely wife.


Salvatore Vaughan
Salvatore first travelled with Olison back to Berebia and sees the mountains and lakes south of Ugral.
Then he made his way back to the old chapel where he both became a traitor and went down a brighter path, where he was given Ormm.
After settling down in Berebia, he made a career as wyvern knight instructor and managed to get a rank of Wyvern General of Berebian 3rd Army, holding the position as long as the nation lasted.


Tantallos Forsaken
Tantallos returned to the Forsaken Castle to claim his position as a King. He assisted those who were standing by his side to finally repel the undead forces that were threatening to surround the castle.
Little is known of him in the future, but the name 'Clan Forsaken' ringed in people's ears long after Magic Wars started.


Riven
Riven decided to join the Forsakens after all, and attempt to rebuild a coven of sorts within them.
She also had an interest in researching Dragons and Dragonstones, both in pursuit of the kind of knowledge Prixima had gained, and in search of a better understanding of her hopefully new clan's patron.
Little is known of her, her name seemingly vanishing from minds of people shortly after death of Prixima Kesselring.


Edwin Westbringer
Edwin decided to roam around the lands for some time in order to collect funds for his dream before he headed back to Ys to start up his new school, having thought of an ideal market of customers to get it off the ground.
Due to having accumulated much knowledge and having a preference for 'practical' magics, his new school turned out to be very popular among the more adventurous mages and the 'Westbringer School of Practical Incineration' is currently looking to expand across the land.
In his later years, he became staunch opponent of research on the Dragonstones, which put him and his family at odds with Ys Duchy.

There were few others, who left the group earlier in the adventure; let us remember their names.

? Henry

Sterling

Taki Greenstone

Daniel

Adrien

And this concludes the stories of our noble heroes... but let's not forget about their allies, numerous and diverse in their skills, who helped them in small or big ways during their travels.

Dag
Died during the explosion that occured during death of Prixima Kesselring.

Danya
Remained at Mannan's side for many years, even after he settled down.

Mannan Tunhausen
No longer a noble nor having a home, Mannan travelled across the country, teaching about Dragon, until he settled down in a small coastal city, where he founded an orphanage.

Matilda
Returned to Berebia together with Salvatore Vaughan and Olison Eul.

Alexandra von Grummel
Returned home to lead County Grummel whilst her father was incapacitated after a stress-induced stroke; received the title of Countess after his death three years later.

Dalban
Became a military instructor at Fortress Kesselring, often embarking to hunt down bandits and thieves roaming the county.

Magister Tiron
Resumed his research on long-distance teleportation, until his methods were obscured by much more powerful Dragonstone magic; later, he fell into obscurity.

Captain Marpa
Continued her duty at Kesselring Fortress; however after few years, she moved to southern Deynastia along with her young two daughters in tow.

Leo Kesselring, Son of Prixima
Publicized and encouraged research on beneficial side of Dragonstone magic, unknowingly dooming the future.

~~~

~Chronology of the Years after Prixima's Death~

591FY: Prixima Kesselring dies suddenly of illness in early February; her son Leo becomes new Count Kesselring.
593FY: Leo Kesselring travels to Grand Univeristy in Ys Duchy, where he gives the famous lecture 'On the Benefits of Harnessing the Ancient Magics of the Sacred Dragonstones'; he publicizes research on Dragonstones and tells of possibilities of using their magic to heal the worst of diseases, develop new forms of travel, shape land for better use in farming, and so on.
593-598FY: Together with brilliant magicians of Ys, the study on Dragonstones prospers; within five years the magniture of research on the stones prompts the Ys Duchy to open new cathedral in their University, called 'Draconics'.
598-608FY: The Decade of Glory; as prophecisied by Leo Kesselring, numerous advances in healing and landshaping are made thanks to the power of Dragonstones; however the most powerful ones, like Diamond Star or Fire Emblem, are kept locked in royal treasury of Deynastia.
607FY: In late autumn, after a dispute in the court of Menelean King, Paragor the Younger, disgruntled sage Yamilik Thorn uses the power of his family's dragonstone, Amber Tear, against the King; Castle Menelea along with hundreds of square kilometres of land are rended and turned into toxic swamp, killing hundreds, including most of Menelean Royal Family that was at the castle during that time.
608FY: Similar tragedies occur in Deynastia and Ys; misuse of Dragonstones causes land-changing cataclysms that claim thousands of lives. King of Berebia bans research on Dragonstones in Berebia; the nation becomes the pillar of opponents of Dragonstones, and three well known Dragonstones of Berebia are shattered so no one can misuse them.
611FY: Xagor the Mad breaks into Dey treasury and acquires Fire Emblem; he razes the castle to the ground and uses the stone to mentally enslave large number of people; later that year he creates 'Domain of Xagor' encompassing northern Deynastian coast.
612-615FY: Berebian-Deynastian War; first time Dragonstones are used on small scale in tactical combat, only to provide terryfying results.
618FY: Menelea collapses; several prominent magical generals and researchers use their respective Dragonstones to carve small parcels of land for themselves.
620FY onwards: Owners of Dragonstones battle each other, blasting the land and killing people living in their enemies' lands; Berebian territory and power wanes until the nation occupies land near The North, no larger in size than most of Dragonstones' owners nations. Owners of Dragonstones are dubbed 'Dragonmages'. With death of a Dragonmage, his/her stone is passed to the victor, but no one manages to hoard more than three before losing them to more skilled and/or powerful Dragonmage. With the stones' power unleashed, mountains are shattered and lands submerged, and people are torn to pieces or enslaved as mindless, warped soldiers. In less than a decade, the land is in hands of powerful, magical madmen as no nation nor leader governs over the continent.
That is the beginning of the Magic Wars, an apocalyptic event that would last for more than a century.

Freezing wind blew across the ruined, now ceiling-less tower. There was no other sounds for a while, until footsteps could be heard; soft footsteps of a single young man, who ascended the tower. He stopped in front of the crater that was left after explosion that took Prixima's life.

That man was called Leo Kesselring. Prixima's son.

He looked over the debris and ruination as the freezing wind lashed at his cheeks, so much that he had to cover himself with one hand. He silently prayed for his mother's damned soul to find peace in the heavens, and after he finished the holy words, he was preparing to leave when something caught his attention...

A delicate glow of energy in a pile of rubble. Unsure what to do, Leo stood silently for a moment - and the glow resumed for a second. The young mage moved to the rubble and dug in it, unearthing a dark blue gemstone. It was dark inside - and then a pulse of energy emanated from it, before dying again.

"...Oh, it's my mother's Dragonstone. I thought nothing survived..." The stone's illuminated his face in bright blue color once more.

"...My mother was mad, you know? Trying to do such... crazy things to unleash your power. Maybe she was right, maybe you have incredible powers. But I bet they can be used for... good. Yes. I could prove that." The stone glowed a bit brighter this time as if agreeing with Leo's proposal.

"Mom... if only you could look at these like I do... maybe this could end differently." Leo sighed and pocketed the stone, then turned on his heel and left the tower, his footsteps waning until the only sound in the tower was once more the wind.

That cold wind blew harder and one could think that there was a laughter sewn into the chilling wail of the air; laughter similar to a mad woman cackling quietly....

But no. Surely...

It was just the wind.

"Hello! It is me, your beloved Anja the Gypsy! I'm quite excited that it is my duty to tell you something important! And the message is: stay tuned for Epilogue Chapters which will start Thursday, 5th of June! I will be going now, darlings. Toodles~!"


"...Alexander, are you there darling?"
"Yeah?"
"Well, I'm busy with the dinner, can you change Austin's diapers?..."
"...Oh and I think and Alisa and Aurora finished their biscuits..."
"...you could also go and blah blah blah..."
"*siiiiiigh*"

If you ever plan adding a Warbird into the force I'm currently in, I call dibs! :P

Also yeeeeah, destroying the last Klingon ship back then all by myself.

Klingons worry me though. Ferengi not so much - their ships are super cheap and considering amount of gold Ferengi produce they can just spam them indefinitely.

* Haspen patpats.

There, there, kitty remembers :3

I would assume they've been magically nailed to our ship. If not, they would just have 1 person replace it while the other got on and attacked.

Both sentences are true :P

With crashing sounds, something smashed against Rosa Azul, as the fog dissipated.

It wasn't just a something! It was a ship! There was a black pirate flag wavering on top of one of the masts, with white bird skull seen from the profile. Curiously, a smaller, yellow flag was fluttering right underneath it.

Boarding planks were cast over the railings and the mercenaries could see the crew - rotting, boney, undead crew!

"Arr! Board da ship, boyos! Get me a fine wee lad and fancy ladies for yerselves!"

"And drinks!" Shouted a skeletal sailor.

"And jewels!" Yelled another cheerfully, his jaw clacking against his skull.

"Yo ho ho! Get all the riches! And a bottle of rum too, yah!"

Considering their rather unlively state, they might have trouble drinking rum today.

"What the hell."

Suddenly, both Epona and Rose began to neigh and stomp in their spots, as if something spooked them.

And then came very, very loud wailing sounds. It was hard to pinpoint the source - it seemed that horrible noises came from everywhere around the ship.

19890
Oh right before the combaty thing happens:

I'm willing to give Ayleen and Selina a C rank support.

Esori and Dustine ship has still to leave the dock buuuut keep it up and I might give it as soon as next chapter.
