The Nations
Amas (Um-mus): A peaceful but powerful nation. Amas has a strong army and notable scholars, and chooses peace rather than warfare when it comes to it. Soldiers spend most of their time within the nation protecting its citizens. The previous king passed away not too long ago and his son came into power, leaving the nation slightly vulnerable. Their nemeses are Donathand and Sylvitra. Their ally is Engysa. Amas is a wealthy nation.
Engysa (In-gis-a): A rural farming nation that is home to many craftsmen and merchants. Itโs a common place for bandits. The man that rules the nation is kind and old with many grandchildren. Their neighbor and nemesis is Donathand. Their allies are Amas and Mytana. Engysa is a poor nation.
Sylvitra (Sil-veh-tra): Powerful mages and magic users live in Sylvitra. The land is flooded with magic and unusual creatures, like dragons, and strange giant plants inhabit it. The king used to be kind and levelheaded, but with the discovery of the Holy Lands pending closer day by day he has become much greedier. Their allies are Florevene and Donathand. Their nemesis is Amas. Sylvitra is of average wealth.
Donathand (Don-uh-thand): Donathand has an army that easily rivals Amas. Their soldiers are blood-thirsty and heartless. They are best known for their use of tamed animals during combat (such as lions and other mighty creatures). Their king often sends raiders to their neighboring town of Engysa, to steal the goods the merchants craft. Its ally is Sylvitra. Its nemeses are Amas, Engysa, and Mytana. Donathand is a wealthy nation.
Mytana (Meh-tan-uh): Mytana is a cultural hub, full of entertainers and attractions for ones amusement. It is a common meeting place for world leaders. It draws in an assortment of people and is considered a neutral zone to most. It is the only nation ruled by a queen, a sweet woman who might have a couple of screws loose. Its allies are Engysa and Florevene. Its nemesis is Donathand. Mytana is of average wealth.
Florevene (Floor-eh-veen): Florevene is an island nation off the coast of Sylvitra. It specializes in growing herbs and making spices and fishing. They are excellent sailors. Most inhabitants traveled from Sylvitra and it is also home to many powerful mages, most of whom practice elemental magic. It is also ruled by an elderly king, who is intelligent and wise. Its allies are Sylvitra and Mytana. It has no nemesis. Florevene is of average wealth.
The Beginning:
During the summer, three friends go on a hiking trip in the mountains. They stumble upon a hidden cave and fall deep into the darkness. They wake up face first in the dirt. When they look up, they see a stone wall rising up around a city. This is the capital city in Mytana. Here, they will have a fateful encounter with their future companions, all of whom had one reason or another to be there. What will happen from here on? Who knows. Our story is just beginning.

Rules
1- No freaking one liners!!! Gosh! Haha. I'm not asking for 50,000,000 words, but give me at least a paragraph
2- I am law!!! Listen to me!!!
3- Make good characters
4- If you're not going to post DON'T JOIN!! I want ACTIVE ROLEPLAYERS
5- Post frequently, AT LEAST 1 post PER WEEK
6- Let's keep this PG-13, hey, you can always take it to PM if ya know what I mean ;) JK JK!!!
7- Please don't swear like a sailor, that's not attractive!
8- I am only accepting good characters, so I have the right to not accept your character. Bad characters are one of my pet peeves. For that reason, I am allowing more than one person to reserve a character, then I can choose the best one. If someone reserves, then makes the character, and no one has reserved it in the meantime, and I like it, I will accept the character, and no one else can make that character, then.
9- If you have any questions feel free to ask.
10- All reservations go in the OOC
11- I am a very easy going person, so, don't be afraid of me, haha.
12- This is character driven, so don't ask me about every little thing, you are old enough to make your own decisions. Although, if you are planning something huge, please discuss it in the OOC.
13- Follow the Character and Posting skeletons.
14- Don't start OOC wars.
15- If I ask you to change something, just change it, it's for the good of the roleplay.
Okay, now that you all know how needy I am, lets have some fun! :D

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 12 authors
Alaric continued to consume mouthful after mouthful of his stew like clockwork, a mass of questions swirling in his mind behind his blank, expressionless face. Where were the Holy Lands? What would they find there? Would the journey be a safe one? Were the Holy Lands safe? What did that book the Euterpe wanted so badly contain? Every mouthful of stew seemed to bring about a new question until Euterpe ran over and began fussing over him loudly, her voice filled with concern.
"Oh my! Alaric! You look awful! Did you sleep at all? Please tell me... I won't let you travel in such a horrid condition... That'd be a crime against my oath..."
Alaric appreciated Euterpe's concern, but he really couldn't be doing with her mollycoddling him like this, he wasn't going to allow himself to become a hindrance. What did she mean by "a crime against my oath"? What oath? Whatever oath she was on about, Alaric was going to have to make her commit this "crime".
"Yeah, I got some sleep." Alaric replied, his speech barely audible and slightly slurred, "I got to sleep about an hour or two after you did, and I woke up about half an hour ago. Although I wish I hadn't slept at all..."
Alaric mumbled the last sentence to himself, he would have been very surprised if Euterpe understood a single word of it, Hell, he wouldn't have been too shocked if she hadn't understood anything he said. He took another drink from his glass of bubbling liquid and continued speaking:
"You needn't worry yourself over my welfare. I've travelled in states far worse than this one, and I'm still here. If something goes wrong, it will be my fault, not yours, for not knowing my limits."
Alaric finished the last of his stew and drink before standing up wearily and ushering for Euterpe to follow him.
He lead her up the stairs and into his room, where the completed book rested on his desk. He picked up both books and handed them to Euterpe.
"I'm sorry, but I can't remember a single word I wrote." Alaric apologised, "I was too tired to process any of the information, and I wanted to finish as quickly as I could so I could go to bed."
Hajime slowly woke up on his bed in the hotel. โRmmmโฆ.โ He turned over onto his back. This bed, although he was grateful for it, was very uncomfortable. It seemed to be made up of little more than a few layers of cloth and a little straw covering a wood table. But it was a bed, nonetheless, and he was grateful for it. โMmโฆ what time is it?โ He glanced out the window. Morning. โGreaaatโฆ. Second night in a row Iโm not nocturnal. Well, baby steps.โ
Sighing, Hajime crossed his legs and sat on the bed for a few moments, thinking back to the last couple days. He had been mostly listening to Alaric, Maximilian, and the others educating him on the ways of the world that he and Miou had stumbled upon. While he was unsure about how Miou was taking it, he certainly was having a rough time of things. Every other word that they said didnโt make sense, and he had to constantly interrupt them in mid-flow just to be able to get a semblance of what they were saying. I hope I havenโt made them made by nowโฆ
Staring out the window again, he stared at the pale blue sky, flecked with clouds. โWell, at least the terrain looks like home,โ he muttered. โHm. Wonder if Miouโs awake or not.โ He silently rose and opened the door to the room, peering out. It seemed like some people were active in the next room. Holding up a hand, he knocked on the door softly, wondering if he would get a response.

Re: Finding the Holy Lands
I haven't gotten on in a while, I mean, I've been able to get onto the internet since them, but I still don't have internet at home. Because of school, I have only been able to get on once a week at most for leisure, and scattered times because of stuff that I had to work on. I've also had a whole bunch of medical tests, but those only last like..a day, so that's not really an excuse for not posting for a month.
If you guys are all here and are all interested in keeping this thing going, I'll try to post as much as I can. I'm sorry guys, and if you're mad at me, that's okay, hopefully we can keep this going. :)
