What Happened Last Time: October 2023 Event Recap
Nov 16, 2023

With Nemesis season approaching, SAINTcorp™ put out a bold notice to the Lakelands that all Nemesi found practicing in Capital City and Coldwater would be detained and dealt with for disrupting peaceful society. Thus, Mourning Glory-- relatively free from  SAINTcorp™’s influence-- became a reluctant refuge for nearby Nemesi looking to escape persecution.

Oct 19, 2023

With the Dominion gone, vultures circled the carcass of Mourning Glory as it struggled to put itself back together again. On Friday night, new face and travelers worked together to rebuild a broken barrier and keep the Cult of the Silent safe from Raiders. More townsfolk worked their way through the sewers to flush out radioactive material left by the Dominion, creating a source for clean water. Mourning Glory was ready to put in the work to rebuild, but not everyone visiting had the same idea of what that looked like.

The final chapter had begun for Mourning Glory’s war against the Dominion.Only the most dedicated remained in the extremist Darwin cult, holding on to whatever remnants of power they could. Mourning Glory was ready to squash them- but Banting had one last deus ex machina in his pocket. Thanks to help from the Neighborly Association, the town found out that Banting was working on a powerful bioweapon, which had the power to wipe out the Greater Lakesea area. He planned on testing it the next day, right in the middle of town. Those opposed to Banting would have to move fast to stop him from finishing his research.

After a gruesome attack by the Reeve on Mourning Glory in June, rumors abounded in the Lakelands that the Reeve was sailing back to Bad Axe, a rowdy pirate port town. Even worse, the Dominion navy was said to be gathering their forces to join her there.

What Happened Last Time: March/April 2023 Event
May 4, 2023

As the Lakeseas thawed from the Great Freeze, the Purebloods in the area looked for entertainment. The Fords sent out a call for champions to participate in the Ides March Games, which not only served the traditions of the Purebloods, but allowed champions the chance to receive a Black and Gold Card. With these, winners could ask factions for almost anything they desired. But first, townsfolk had to retrieve the Grave Guard, laid to rest from November, from the Gravemind. And then a ball!
