I have been unable to give our updates for a while now, and this has been one very busy month for the Edict! Let’s have a months catchup!
Week One
On the 27th of Februrary, two figures met in the alpine woods of Grizzy Hills… there, a faithful acolyte conversed with her prophet, and the Covenant set plans into motion…

Then, a few days later on the 2nd of March, the Edict’s Pathfinders visted an old friend in Erantex. They sought information about the lands culture, as well as permission for archaeological digs.

On the 3rd of March, a lone vulpera was found by two dracthyr, who quickly deemed it important to bring her to the Prophet. As it turns out, the two were long separated friends, and were reunited.
…it also turns out, one of the hired mages is not particularly adept at summoning portals, and a masked human found himself stranded in Uldum when attempting to reach Redridge…

The 5th of March found the Edict in Dalaran library, quickly becoming their favourite location to hang out it seems. There, a certain vulpera found a taste for crime… surely his newfound sticky fingers would not summon any ire from any specific humans…

Booty Bay… always one of the… most interesting cities in Azeroth… and that night was no different. While the shop originally found itself with business as usual, the night rather rapidly devolved… With a “playful” act of arson; a stern discussion between two friends about being good; and a sudden group of threatening dwarves, it was a night not soon forgotten. Nigel Foot… we will remember you…
Our Luminary promises a fire safety talk will be had and those responsible will find themselves facing suitable diciplinary action.

In the evening of Booty Bay, discussions were had with the fate of a certain Ren’dorei of the Edict. Together the group made a plan to confront the unusual Quel’dorei of a few days prior, to see what more he knew of the fated murder. The next day, the group collected what they believed to be the murder weapons involved in the case - with a lot of bargaining. Will this be the breakthrough they need to solve who Kaldone it?

Week Two
The Darkmoon Faire came to town once more, and on the 8th the Edict found themselves together in attendance. With only one jailbreak, and some cult activity, they had a fantastic evening of games and playing around.

The night culminated in the fighting arena, with two members facing eachother down in a friendly sparring.

…you can only imagine a fist fight between a human and a dracthyr to go only one way…
He gave it a good shot, atleast.

On the 9th, the pathfinders journeyed to a new part of Erantex. This time, a dangerous swamp full of viscious plants and venomous insects. With several close calls threatening their lives, they navigated the verdant expanse professionally and their lives intact.

Despite the dinginess of the jungle, they stumbled into a pleasant surprise. A long term friend of the Edict was found safe after a long period of silence, and they caught up on their plan for the future.
Following his advice, they journeyed further to their goal and successfully established links with new allies.

Then, on the 10th, several vulpera found themselves in Orgrimmar with only an unusual undead as supervision… the shenanigans that ensued… oh they change a person…

The Solstice Bazaar opened its doors in Dalaran once more on the 12th, giving the Edict yet another wonderfully busy shop night with many customers. When the artisans finally got a chance to catch their breath, they travelled to the park to discuss life.

Week Three
After weeks of so much excitement, it only makes sense to retire back to the Elanaar Arboretum to relax a little… until you remember it’s the Edict, and chaos will ensue.

Atleast, the chaos was generally contained, until Truth or Dare began…

…we are banned from playing Truth or Dare now…

With the support of our allies, on the 16th we were finally ready to face a powerful Prince of Erantex… a being seemingly of pure elemental energy. In the eye of the storm, the pathfinders fought a long and difficult battle, with many injuries to be healed. However, they found themselves victorious, freeing the Prince from the shackles of tyranny.

A break was vital, so on the 17th the Edict enjoyed a nice calm day in the park… as calm as it gets with them, anyway. Only one socially anxious elf needed a break away from the world atleast, so maybe they didn’t get too chaotic.

In that evening, a small group invited themselves to a certain humans abode… and a certain dracthyr is no longer welcome in the region of Redridge.

Kosh'harg
The bi-annual Kosh’harg began on the 18th, heralding the week-long springtime festival for the Orc’s. The Edict found themselves attending almost every single night, with chaotic ventures following suit.
https://imgur.com/a/csiy2jb
The first night saw a certain old orc leaving Erantex for the first time in months, as well as the appearance of a certain twin. They discussed the sources of magic, family dynamics, the Void… culminating in a trip to the edge of Outland, bringing many questions and temptations of what would happen should you jump from the ledge into the great beyond.
Our pathfinders Rasati and Fenerin found themselves as winners in the Infernal’s Kiss challenge, bringing pride to the Edict for their success!

Day 2 of the Kosh’harg was spent mostly atop a dilapidated cart, where the Prophet found a challenger threatening to undo his Covenant of the Damned (Name Pending Verification). Who were threatening the greatest threat to Azeroth: bureaucracy.

On the 3rd day, The Solstice Bazaar opened it’s stall to the people of Nagrand, offering both their wares and Tarot card readings. However, when things got emotional due to a case of drunken tomfoolery, two vulpera found themselves stacking in a trenchcoat to cheer someone up.

Employee of the month material, by the way.

The fourth day found the Edicts new swordmaiden Palae participating in the brawl competition. While she didn’t place, the Edict watched with pride as she represented us! The evening broke into some emotional discussions among members, with an adventure to meet god following.

The fifth day featured a pilgrimage to a sacred place for the Orc’s, with non-Orc’s permitted to join on a small ritual of their own. Remembering those who have long departed, and paying respects to them.

In the evening… heated discussions about the past were faced.

The sixth day the festival came to a close, finalising

However, despite the festivities, the Edict’s sights were still focussed on Erantex. On the 23rd they had an important roundez-vous to determine the path forward in their adventure, and to assess the crossroads they have found themselves at.

The Last Week
On the 25th, the Edict returned to the Arboretum. There, they discussed the importance of self care as well as had their fortunes read.

The Solstice Bazaar opened its doors in Dalaran once more on the 26th - to quite the hectic night. From many customers - new and old- bustling through the doors, to a… banana slip incident, injuring one of the shop attendants who was thankfully healed on site.
However, while a certain Ren’dorei was healed, a Vulpera’s notebook was sadly eaten beyond repair.

Finally… on the 29th the evidence for the murder investigation was collected, brought to a secluded spot in Booty Bay. Using… forms of magic, the Edict were able to finally piece together what happened on that fateful night, and not only that - but watch the murder.
With their friend proven innocent, and the guilty determined… the next step is to figure out how to dispense justice.
