    By the time they reached the Boar, it had been transformed. Two of the Duke's men stood at the door, polearms crossed over the entrance. Inside, Lela could be seen commanding her staff like an admiral, both hearths roaring as they hadn't in weeks, while Ninka ran trays up the stairs with a speed...

    The two smiths appraised their work. The firebox of the hearth now had additional firebricks stacked all the way up to the hood of the forge. The new, incomplete wall was still open at the front, awaiting more bricks to complete the chimney. On the workbench behind them sat a pile of iron bars...

    "Tag! No, swing it. Zornhau! Not still. Yes, Pflug now. Ochs. Alber. Again." It had been a week since the party was grounded, and Agyn had been helping Dietrich with his Egrysan. He still used German words to convey the stances and strikes to Tal and Sorena, as well as a number of adventurers...

    The morning sun had yet to breach the eastern ridge as the party headed to the Guild Office. On their way, they passed a large group of hunters assembled by the well in the town square. "Mornin', Tal," said a squat man, no taller than Dietrich's chest. He addressed the orc from under an iron...

    "Keep the blade moving, one-two-three-four. Remember your footwork. Christ, bauerntritte. Lower your stance!" Dietrich leaned on the fence of the training square as he instructed Tal. It was a slate-grey day, though it had yet to rain. Perfect for training. "I am a peasant," Tal quipped as he...

    For a time, Dietrich thought he was back in Castle Schwerin, cold and cloistered in the dark in a bed not unlike the one his master had died in. If it hadn't been for the agony that accompanied it, he might have thought the cracking and moaning he heard was the ice of the lake. Figures moved...

    The evening breeze was most welcome as Dietrich left the forge. Tal and Agyn were waiting by a low stone fence, Agyn kicking her legs against it. "How did it go?" Tal asked. "Well, I suppose. I think I just became his apprentice." "That's good, right? You must have impressed him!" Tal...

    "Just how did you do that, anyway? When you took that bastard's blade?" Tal and Dietrich ambled through the square toward the resonant pounding of the trip hammer. "Ah, that boneless eel? Ha, he practically handed it to me. The art is Ringen am Schwert. I doubt someone as strong as you would...

    "You there! Stop where you are!" Dietrich and company had just left the Guild Office, and immediately the Freifechter knew something was wrong. A half-dozen men in a noble house's livery were harassing the traffic to and from The Boar. Tal had pinched Dietrich's doublet, ready to pull him and...

    It was well into daylight when Dietrich finally awoke to the sound of the trip hammer ringing dully from across the palisade. Rubbing his eyes, he turned in the sturdy cot he had claimed the night before. The cot was one in a row of others like it, mostly empty, as the other adventurers who...

    "Meine Freundin, please, be at ease." Dietrich had for some time been trying to get Agyn to be still. She had been fussing all evening over Tal, bandaging his many wounds as he slumbered in their tent. Other than washing her face, she had taken no time to see to her own injury, the bandage...

    Threadmarks: HUNDSFOTT!

    Morning came with the gentle buzzing of insects and the cawing of strange birds. Dietrich finally roused from his slumber. It would seem that dying was a rather exhausting endeavor. Crawling from the lone tent, he cast his gaze around camp. The couple must have risen early, and for the moment he...

    Threadmarks: Iron Heresy

    For a long while, all Dietrich knew was that impenetrable white. Like the snow over Lake Schwerin, it blotted out the physical world, defying his senses as he drifted along to who knew where. It was warm, gentle. He forgot the freezing cold of the Lewitz as he let himself float along on an...

    February 23, 1571. Dietrich would have liked to open the shutters overlooking the lake. It had made for a stark beauty when they had arrived at the castle nearly a fortnight ago. Its vast, frozen surface was indistinguishable from the land that rose gently from it, covered in snow as it was...
