OUR SAGA THUS FAR...

The Sudden Season has fallen, and adventurers all across the isle have been following rumors of its source to the lost city of Frore, home of the necromantic Gelidites. News has come in of adventuring parties making successful forays into Frore, but it remains to be seen what they have accomplished.

With the snow still relentlessly falling throughout Dereth, it may be a bit premature to discuss future upheavals, but we want to prepare you. We've consulted with Asaina al-Arqis and her scholarly cabal, and while they believe that Dereth's heroes will rescue the island from its magical winter, they suspect that these events are a mere prelude to a greater threat. They say that by thwarting the denizens of Frore, the heroes may have released some shadowy evil from confinement. We will keep you updated.

Meanwhile, the Asheron's Call team is really excited about the progress of the community. The monarchies keep growing and becoming more sophisticated, and Dereth has inspired our diligent fan sites to develop excellent stories, articles, and even freeware reference tools. We're especially intrigued by this concept of "pyrealware" advanced by Circeus, and are busting our brains to figure some way of taxing him.... Read on to find out more.
