• Mature • Looks Can Be Deceiving

As one approaches the City of Nashaki, trains of caravans lead through the sprawling outskirts to the numerous open city gates. The largest gate is on the west side and leads past the fortified walls into an octagon of eight districts. Each district features unique markets and is maintained by one of the eight Towers that rule Nashaki. In the city, heavily guarded, is the prized oasis that supports the Nashaki people to flourish in such an unforgiving land.

Comments: I really enjoyed the description of Nashaki. I never paid any attention to that particular city, but the two of you made it seem like an interesting place that is worth checking out.

What fascinates me is that Llyr always seems a little different when using a totem. I agree with her that it’s a good idea not to use the name of the person that you made a totem of. That could lead to all kinds of confusing and potentially unpleasant situations!

The scene that you presented – the slavers – constituted an interesting way for your PCs to meet. Even though Ezili didn’t seem to really need the help, I’m glad that Saza was there. I have to admit, I’m just as curious about him as Ezili is after this thread.

I like how many details the two of you added to your posts, and I thoroughly enjoyed this first meeting between Ezili/Llyr and Saza. I already look forward to reading their next thread.

Enjoy your rewards!
