winter nearing its end in Haven

Post by Ark »

Ark walked through the streets of Redemption, Havens capital city, he looked over the castle Blackwatch and the various shops and houses, the people going here and there. It had come a long way from being nothing more then broken walls and a bloody inn with only a couple dozen people fighting for survival every day. but still Ark seemed worried. He had finished another meeting with Korrigan and it left him concerned. Everyone had assumed that when the Vanguard Alliance had formed it was inherently stable and relatively free of problems and thus focus could begin looking outward.

the Vanguard Navy consisting of ships from Haven, Dawnvale, and any other allied Navies had been doing rather well at wiping out piracy and had begun extending protection further and further. The vanguard had begun sending out expeditionary forces to small pockets of the wildlands, the Brennonites of Brennondale were of the first, but the wildlands were quite vast and Brennondale quite small. Ark had heard rumors that other nations were beginning to set up settlements in the wildlands as well and was determined to inquire about this as he went about his chores.

Other then being a commissioned officer of Dawnvale Ark was an Ambassador for it, so his chores regularly consisted of visiting the alliance nations and various outposts. he accepted that he would not be returning to Brennondale, but luckily for him the views and opinions of that town were shared by no one else in the vanguard alliance, and if other nations had outposts that provided him with the means to keep track of the wildlands. though as he had already expressed, the wildlands were not what worried him but rather the feeling of domestic trouble that seemed to hang in the air, and his meeting with Korrigan only left him more worried.

Ark realized he had stopped walking and was staring at a tree, one of the trees the elves had planted within Haven. he blinked a few times to snap out of it and continued walking. Winter would be ending shortly so hunting season on the high seas would be starting up soon. he had kept his ship in port nearly all season last year because he had been so busy with other tasks, it just did not allow him time to captain it. He had asked a friend to share command of it with him this year. He did plan on setting out with it this season but new he still had diplomatic chores to attend to and was ever more nervous being away from Haven when it felt like something was coming. . .

He continued to mull things over in his head as he set out for another nation, he wondered how the elves were doing.

Ark was taking longer then normal to go about his business.

He was taking time to wander various trails and roads he came across, half for the fun of it and half so he actually knew where they went. He started to cut through the wildlands to reach his destination faster, visually the area did not look any different from the rest of Phanterra, at least as far as he knew, but it was still rather obvious when you crossed into it. less settlements, more the occasional homestead, and far less travel on the roads. He wondered to himself if they would have gotten more travel if they had named the region something more friendly. . .

Still, Ark could not shake the feeling of trouble in Haven proper, and even Dawnvale had become more reclusive then normal. He thought about dropping into the Ether for a couple dozen years and simply coming back later to see how things turned out. He thought about some of his friends though, they had no such option available to them. . . He decided that if he could not shake the feeling of danger that he would have to make arrangements for them in case they needed to bail.

He recalled fleeing from Haven after everyone had been betrayed and routed, so few of them made it out alive, might as well come up with a plan ahead of time in case something like that were to ever happen again.

Ark looked up at the grey sky, he assumed he still had time though, he of all people had time. He shifted his sword at his side and continued to wander down side trails and roads.
