Alya ...

…and then the floods came. Alyaayiein, the beautiful drow town was destroyed. Utterly destroyed, few inhabitants survived. Those who did, are scattered all over Sosaria. They move about in the dark, secretly, searching for each other, a new place to call home and the cause of their world's destruction.


Alya, resident of House 1, stole a boat from a dock. The owner obviously left it unattended, and it was an easy conquest. She named the ship Dark Dancer in honor of her goddess and sails the seas seeking treasure to rebuild her beloved city.


Make no mistake, Alya has little use for Sosara and its citizens. Her underground world was her life, she held an office of high honor and was greatly respected among her people. Her goal is simple, to restore her kingdom, reunite her people and destroy those responsible for Alyaayiein's destruction.

*Alya paces on the deck of her boat*

She has been searching for answers, answers to who…what…how her beautiful town was destroyed by flood waters and was she the only survivor? That cannot be, there must be more of her people somewhere.



While searching Malas, Alya stopped in at a tavern. Hopefully. someone there would have some answers. To her dismay, they only spoke human language. If her people learned to speak the human language, why couldn’t they learn to speak her language? How typical of the inferior humans. Perhaps it was above their ability.



Several people attempted to assist her in her search by providing possible suggestions. It appears floods have been happening in many of the towns. Some woman suggested Zog Cabal were responsible. Thinks back on learned history. Yes, this cult has been active for a long time. But why, now, would they flood the world? More answers are needed.



No help was given to possible survivors.

*a beautiful parrot arrives on her ship with a note attached, written in her language* Her heart skips a beat, is it possible? *

The message was short but gave her hope. It read, “I saw you at a bar in Malas. I was unable to reach out to you, was unsure how safe it would be. I know of you, my family resided in House 4. Please send me a location where I can meet with you. With respectful devotion, Starnak”

Alya sends a reply, “My ship is off the coast of a swamp close to a town called Trinsic. A small town appears to be part of the swamp. There is an Inn there called Toad Suck Inn. Send word when you arrive. Alya High Priestess of Alyaayiein
