Promising.

What happens when little blue riding hood counts down to zero? o_O

Are we legit opening with a fight? Ain't no way.

49272: Whispers of Sorrow - Friday, January 2 2026 - 2:00 AM

This is clear perfidy on the part of the Alvarians.

So... These guys HAVE to know that inviting Black Star heroes to attack a Livarian diplomat that they're hosting will cause a massive international incident, right? Like sure, they'll try to keep it under wraps, but that's an enormous risk they're taking here.

She's counting down to burk punch

Oh good countdown of possible doom from little miss blue. Plus the omens helper dude who might now be less reasonable then before. A backstabbing arse grinning far too much for been in the line of fire.

Looks like a recipe for fun and giggles especially with the sword of damocles that'll drop if piper dies.

Thats an awful big smile for someone in the splash zone

@TaranAlvein Oh, no, no, no. It is a fortunate coincidence for Heroland and subsidiaries that Alvarian hospitality knows no bounds. They are so hospitable that they allow a couple of Black Stars to stay, since they won't cause trouble to their homeland nor Heroland. Alvaria also welcomed a guest rag-tag band that, as it happens, both is known by said BS and caused a lot of trouble in Edstatt.

Alvaria can't be made diplomatically/politically responsible the conflict created between their guests. Moreso when said guests are much more powerful than whatever forces a frontier post can muster! It'd be outrageous to blame them of such a thing.

What impresses me is the level hutzpah the Alvarians have here. Were I in their shoes, the first concern putting all these... disruptive people together is the potential for collateral damage. If things get dicey, I wouldn't want them in the same zip code as me, never mind the same room.

Either the Alvarians are supremely confident in their own might, or they REALLY have an axe to grind with the Livarians. Probably both.

Double checked. Blue Hood started counting down from 56 when she first showed up in case anyone wants to know.

Black stars?
Do you mean black ops?
Funny how that shining heroland cast such an imposing shadow

49284: Datren - Friday, January 2 2026 - 5:47 PM

Gonna be fun when they get to the point, because I don't think the Alvarians are going to be happy about what is about to happen.

@Datren
I dunno. Blarl doesn't exactly look happy already.
