The World of Secfenia

Morjiana let the silence following this stretch out to a length that might have been uncomfortable for many. Her niece was an open book and required no special abilities to know her truth. This Varann seemed genuine as well, but it was hard to know and hard to welcome a gaje to the family, too. She ...

Morjiana sensed nothing to suggest the creature was being in any way disingenuous as she tentatively reached for Varann's aura. She had, on occasion, accidentally shocked the aura of one she tried to explore since the acquisition of the powers that had not been her birthright, so she felt gingerly a...

It was an answer she could not find fault with, try as she might, which left Morjiana little choice but to proceed to her next question.

Morjiana stepped in and gave the vardo a sweeping, critical look, followed by a sweeping, critical look up and down her niece. The girl looked well enough, happy even, which was good to see. One eyebrow raised slightly as she observed the other guest present, a creature she had met occasionally in t...

Morjiana felt as if she was shaking a clerk from her skirts by the time she finally left the castle in response to her niece's invitation. "Worse than yvyrm or cockroaches," she muttered as she finally managed to mount her horse and break into a canter through the gates. She thought she he...

Please file charges against Balerion for his revolt today in Paz. Clerical staff have reported a revolt attempt in progress to me and he has admitted as much publicly.
