Diamonds are Forever

Dolf — Wed, 01 Jul 1136 02:34:07 +0000

As the Swift sinks into darkness, so does Dolf’s certainty. Jean dies. Again. This time Dolf doesn't hesitate—he sacrifices a diamond, a piece of Helga’s millennia-old body, to bring him back. But the miracle leaves a deeper scar than the wound. The weight of resurrection tightens around his soul. Before dawn, they face fireflies that rot steel, bugbears in the trees, and the splintering tension of a group constantly flirting with death. In Amy’s wind, Dolf sees the same strange fate threading through others he’s never met—others who’ve also crossed paths with Salithius.

Tickle Bay throws a party, but the voyage kicks off with a literal backstab—Mari gets gutted by a goddamn invisible monster! Cue chaos, frantic healing, and a mystery girl named Amy who saves the day with a bow and a snake named Biter. Dolf nearly passes out trying to keep everyone alive, Hans gets wrecked, and Vegard finally scores a hit. We’ve got no map, no plan, and now no Mari. Welcome aboard The Swift. Hope you’re not afraid of pirates, ghosts, or guilt.

Eastbound and Down

Guided by a vision from Helga, Dolf leads the group east, away from the ashes of Egersund and toward Finnsbury. Along the way, they bury the frozen dead and encounter Blythe—a man hiding a sacrificial horror behind his cabin. Poisoned stew, a divine purge, and a slaughterhouse of corpses reveal that danger now wears many faces. Salithius remains distant, but his shadow looms, echoed in the cruelty of other monsters still walking free.

The Unliving

As the undead breach Egersund’s walls, Dolf races through panic and carnage to reunite with Vegard, Hans, and their families. The child Toril succumbs to the plague, forcing Dolf into an unthinkable act. As the survivors flee through a hidden passage, fear and grief ripple through the group. At a nearby farm, Mari’s undead father attacks, Jensa’s powers erupt, and Hans unleashes righteous fury. With no safe haven left, they flee south—together, but hunted.

Internal Conflict

Dolf — Wed, 15 Apr 1136 06:16:15 +0000

Torn between faith and friendship, Dolf questions whether healing Vegard during pit fights is right—or a betrayal of his beliefs. Despite despising the violence, he can’t abandon the man who once defended him in silence and now stands beside him in pursuit of a missing ranger. As doubts gnaw at him, Dolf prays to Helga for clarity, knowing that loyalty, like faith, is rarely simple—and even less so when blood and purpose mix.
