During the Great Fire of Arün five years ago, Prince Laverne Ingerman stared down death, succumbed to fear and accepted that his life was at its end to save his father. However, Laverne survived thanks to his father's love for his children and King Valka took Laverne's place in the afterlife. Now, King Laverne has one wish: to resurrect Valka. Unfortunately for him, there is only one way to get his impossible wish granted: resurrect the dead gods. 
 

What Is Done

It was indeed nearing the beginning of winter when the group returned to Arün. The deciduous trees of Elven Guard were bright oranges, yellows and reds til the leaves fell while the pines stayed evergreen until covered with white snow. It was the time of year in Arün when warm clothing and blanket sales spiked. The elves collected mass amounts of dead wood to use for firewood from the forests around and stockpiling non-perishable foods, unwilling to leave the warm comfort of their homes. Elves had four seasons on their calendar, much like any other race, but in the high mountains of Elven Guard, it snowed for half the year. The other half was warm and full of sunshine.
