ALEM

---

Sound the drums, head on to war — seized citadel Alem has already been there for the lion's share of a year.

Under the Scavengers' guidance, the four sand worms the party captured gently graze underground corridors allowing the group to reach halfway up Mount Attevar. From there, they quickly infiltrate Alem through a bustling trade route.

Young King Deimar strikes a simple bargain: serve Alem in its bitter last days until inevitable downfall, and the citadel will grant access to its Beacon before the final evacuation is completed.

Sounds simple enough. Now, survive it.

fine but they're doing a full punk rock makeover night

listen, i am very intrigued by where their cr is going. i don't know if they'll be friends or cross the line to enemies but i am here to see where it flows. dry and honest beats chipper platitudes anyway.

They'll become enemies if Spike melts off Pietro's hair, that's for sure

BUT yes, I'm excited to see where this goes, she's very eyes emoji about the vampire stuff but that's just morbid curiosity and draw to other weirdos.
