The Exalts of Zeretan - Shards of Glory

Zeretan - a twisted jewel of the Southwest, a kingdom of close to two million benighted souls, struggling to survive in the dawn of the Age of Sorrows. Ruled by a usurper line for the past seventy years, Zeretan is a stable satrapy of the Realm even in these dark times, and its' tributes continue to fill the coffers of Houses Cathak, Ledaal, and Cynis. Because of this, the Realm has a vested interest in the stability of the kingdom, an interest that may be challenged. Fair Folk stir in the marshes, the dead walk, and the dreaded Solar Anathema have risen once again, hoping to bring peace to the kingdom regardless of the Realm's greed and domination. Will Zeretan become a shining light in the dark times to come, or will it fall into disrepair and destruction?
"Shards of Glory" is a tabletop campaign being run for a group of five players, who will be playing Solar Exalts. This area of the Wiki exists to chronicle their hopes, dreams, fears, victories and defeats, and the path that will carry them to glory or to death. If you're interested, please, read on.

Comments

(Friv, i only have one Khatar ~ DaveCrazy)

Khatars function like razor claws and smashfists, IIRC - you pay for a pair, not a single. - FrivYeti

SWEET! ~DaveCrazy

Is there anything we can do to help you keep this up to date? ~ DaveCrazy

I'm going to try to grab time to update this thing this week, but if you want to put up a session summary, go for it! :) Just use the same format as the existing ones, for completeness, and put up your name on the subpage for credit. I do have the quotes of the week for most of the sessions saved, so if you don't remember them, I can just slot them in.
