*Good idea! Sleep well friend :)*
Dawn approaches, the night withdrawing as preparations are made for Yondor's mission. 6 men are ready to head off with him, all dressed in the guilds best cloak of invisibility. 7 horses are ready, as are all the items Yondor requested, laid out by the main gate out of the city.
Yondor gathers the men into a semicircle. "Alrighty fellas, the first half plan is to disguise ourselves as those demon-droid things, and try and learn as much as possible without being caught. Unless the King has any other requests. When we approach the chasm, just throw on those cloaks, and we can sneak our way in. I'll then transmute us all into one of them. As for the second half of the plan, well, I usually make that up on the spot. Helps with my stand-up comedy skills. So. Y'all ready?"

*Cracks knuckles*
*I love lore. lore time*
*Simple version: The Guild itself is, along with the Dragon Slayers Kingdom, inside and around a massive mountain. Everyone is reasonably friendly, the King does a good job of keeping the horrors of the gape a secret from them. The Guild is filled with inventors and geniuses, its a place for regulated creativity. There's steam and smoke wafting around, many labs and workshops, its a massive place. There's also a greenhouse, storage area, and many other places. It's pretty steampunkish, but there's quite a bit of high tech stuff too. And medieval. Lots of magic too, bring anything, as long as its not like stone age or super futuristic.*
*Longer version, for the reference of anyone, this is what I can disclose so far*
The Spider Guild lore ties in with a lot of other things. Depending on how deep anyone wants to dive, I have a list of how deep the lore goes for certain things.
How deep lore goes for listed things:
Twinkling Stars Tavern- 4/10. There is still a final destination that the ship is heading for, but other than that, not much more planned for the future. In its past, there's lots of secrets still hidden within the ship, which hasn't been fully explored yet. I plan too much lmao, I like having loads ready in case people explore. The ship also has some secrets to do with its creation, and a few of its creators may appear in other places. It's mostly connected to the Guild through the Floating Isle Inn, but there are other things too. And it may or may not make an appearance later on.
The Floating Isle inn- 8/10. Lots of lore to do with the Spider Guild, originally coming from something the Guild did. If you check out this thread, there's all the details for this and the TST. It's past is pretty open, but what's going on with the loadstone now is yet to be discovered. It also plays a large part as a base for a certain conflict in the future, think spacey vibes.
The Fallen Monarch- 6/10. Not tied to the Guild so far, but has a part with some realm jumping in the future. Lots of lore there, check out its thread for more info, its got a cool vibe that people sadly never really caught onto. I plan so much, too much, and forget that people won't find all the secrets.
The Slayer AI Arena- 2/10. Not much actual lore there, just an add on for the guild, with rules that took too much thought.
The bar of bliss- 1/10. Practically nothing, just serves a purpose for people who die at the end of the narrative and a potential few hallucinations for people who pass out.
King Dragon Slayers Kingdom- 10/10. Can't really say much at this point, but there is loads in both its past and future. Think Wakanda.
The Spider Guild- N/A. It has ties to everything at this point, and its past is just like... goes back years irl, hundreds in game. You have the whole thing with the Floating Isle inn, Nerds and Dorks, Calamitas, the Jerry hive... most of that is under Yvonne's rule though. Nerds and Dorks is as far as I go back lmao. (Actually, the whole of that linked post/thread has even more lore, if you like reading. The Lair was/is such a cool place, I loved my time rping there with Yvonne). As for its future, it has two parallels running side by side. This one, with a world in danger, a stressed and angry king, and just the projection of a queen, and then you have the parallel with Elsanova, Drake, the Queen and the King on a journey through the stars, attempting to stop the doctor, Elsa's supposed evil creator. That's Yvonne's side, I'm mainly handling this part, with the Guild. I can't really tell you what's going on with our trip through the stars, as its PM based. (Small Teaser: Don't forget the TST). The two parallels will meet eventually though, which will lead to fun times, and be a major point in the narrative. The Doctor is one of the Guilds longest enemies, a creator of machines, who has lots to do with Konton. And the most recent move.
The Gape:
The Gape is a massive crack in the earth that destroyed the original Dragon Slayer Kingdom, and the Old Guild mountain. All the History of how that happened and how it was dealt with mostly happened last year, on this thread, if you want to read. It's also very related to the Floating Isle Inn.
A little snippet of the Gapes current state:
On the other side of the hill, smoke rises. You can see the ruins of a city, not quite as big as the one back at the Guild, but still huge. Through it, a massive crack in the ground has formed, tearing the landscape to shreds and giving off enough heat to destroy all surrounding life. A devilish red glow emanates from it, and its got to be at least 3 miles across.
Now that the city that once thrived has been abandoned, something new can be seen inhabiting this area. Devils and constructs of all shapes and sizes work machinery, using chains and strength to transport more of their kind from the bottom of the gape up to the surface. Thousands of them, all miniscule dots to you, work along the hellish ravine, building an army. Their numbers seem infinite, stretching on as far as the eye can see in both directions that the gape runs. In the Distance, you can see a mountain, larger than the others, that this tear in the earth has sliced right through. A perfectly clean cut. The Hellish red glow you see seems to be stronger over there, you can feel a very strong magical presence.
These Demons are a major problem of the Guilds, and need sorting. Yondor seems to be on it, but that won't be enough...
The Slayer AI:
The Slayer AI is a part of the Guild, there to help. It's a friendly AI that integrated with the guilds technology, apparently having run away from a larger one of its kind. It claims it was built to run error correction protocols on the larger AI, but was shunned as the other AI became more powerful and did not wish to be corrected as it corrupted and empowered itself. The AI in the Guild, Slayer AI, currently just wishes to help the guild until it can sort its issues out. (That will all tie in with other things later). (Small Teaser: Could Konton have an AI???).
The King:
King Dragon Slayer (the one at the Guild, not on the trip through that stars), is angry at the way things have turned out. But he hides it. He often goes for strolls, or off to kill enemies of his people in person. He feels like he's slowly losing his mind, with all the pressure, but knows he must stay strong. War is on the horizon, and this time, its not one he can win.
The Queen (at the Guild):
It's not actually the queen, if you didn't already know. Please rp/talk with Yvonne for more details.
*Any questions, please ask! And there's no pressure to read any of that, or the links. It's just good for me to get it down, so Y'all have something to reference. Sorry I can't give loads of info, stuff has to be secret for it to be fun. Hope that helps.*
*A note for everyone: GET IN WHILST YOU CAN. If you want to. This is like my second biggest lore project ever, and the story and history is massive. If you get involved, I promise it will be super rewarding, its had a ton of thought put into it. Join the rp! It's like super easy (just join the guild and start roleplaying), totally free, and gonna hopefully be like a proper paid DM experience and have lots of fun. It's like your own fantasy saga to be a part of, its all set up. And I can only take so many people. Happy rping!*

They nod, ready for action. The burliest of them, who's holding a rather large greatsword (let's call him Lary) seems to take charge of his teammates. "Sir, on your command, we saddle up."
