  • 4.23: Second Citadel--ECHIDNACHT

    Echidnacht is the holiest day for monsterkind, the day when monsters ply each other with spooks and sweets and a monster's favorite pastime of all: competition. It is also a day for tales of terror, like Caroline is telling the head of WEP security on this particular Echidnacht evening -- a tale of three great monsters of Silvershore and the only creatures fearsome enough to defeat them.

    Happy Halloween, dear Travelers. We hope you enjoy your stay.

  • 4.22: Second Citadel--The Ocean Oracle (Part 2)

    Deep in the waters of Silvershore lies the City Beneath, home to the city's water-breathing denizens... and an ancient and mysterious monster named Enoch.

    Enoch, it is said, was present when Silvershore was first built, and so knows every secret the city holds. Sir Tristan the Cold is in search of one secret in particular -- and neither Enoch nor the city they built will survive if Tristan gets his hands on it.

    Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay.
