Almund is a thriving township with a dark side. With houses made from the wooden bodies of decommissioned ships, there are many opportunities here, coupled with many dangers.

The Scalvoris Sapphire Inn, Almund
116th Ashan, 720
Part 1 - 2
All sorts of shady people could be found gathered at the Scalvoris Sapphire Inn: pirates, pimps, petty thieves, and everything in between. It was unofficially known as the go-to place...
Rakvald's first few trials in and around Almund weren't ideal. He was wearing the same sackcloth toga and robe that he'd found in that warehouse in Beacon. The one he'd used to cover the form of Pygmalion, the old, meandering Biqaj man. Same...
Caelin, as infuriating and as flirty as he was, had been an invaluable resource the trial before with the University, offering his ship and expertise in seafaring to capture the elusive muter fish. Yeva had certainly never seen one before and so she had overlooked her mortifying...
Yeva had opted to stay mostly quiet since her public exposure, huddled against the side of the deck, it was too much embarrassment to speak again. On the water, Professor Carter had tried to cheer her up, but her smiles were far from believable, I think...
Whatever business had brought Zekuseeyros to the backstreets of Almund that night was his own. Perhaps he was lost? Perhaps he was looking for something? Whatever the case he found himself...
Once (and mostly still) a dilapidated storeroom, now repurposed for the newly-crowned Councillor, the Office of Natural Affairs is a crowded place with peeling wallpaper and an overabundance of clutter. A cumbersome antique wooden desk sits directly before the door,...
I did, Yeva smiled at a group of children as they passed but they seemed to be staring at the Avriel beside her, who was wearing such a brightly colored hat, it was nearly impossible not to, I left the note on your bed, didn't you see it?...
The Land Troops closed in, gathering Balthazar and the assassins to take back to their hall for interrogation. - Nellies' Girls: The Hand That Feeds (2)
36 Zi'Da 719
A familiar shadow passed through the doorway of Nellies in the seedier part of Almund for what it hoped would be the last...
I'm going to find out who is doing this, one way or another. - Nellies' Girls: The Hand The Feeds (1)
32 Zi'Da 719
Balthazar found himself, by no small accident, stopped at a stall in Almund's bazaar selling clothing. He'd come to the bazaar in hopes that Molly would change her mind and...
''He was going to prove Nellie was innocent, by any means necessary. - Nellies' Girls: A Rumor and A Cynic
32 Zi'Da 719
There was hardly a safe night on the street for the prostitutes working at Nellies these trials. Ever since Balthazar Black had come poking around the number of attacks...
'He didn't know what to do now.' - Nellies' Girls: The Weak Link
21- 24 Zi'Da 719
On the twenty first of Zi'Da Balthazar found himself back in the Buckle & Chain, the tavern that Madame Nellie had suggested would be home to the brutes who'd been attacking and cutting up her girls. His...
Kalortah had landed in Almund in the days between his studies at the Scalvoris University. He had heard of the roughneck town on the western coast of Scalvoris from a pair of locals who were swapping tales of a place called the Siren’s Embrace. When he...
1 Cylus 720
Following a tumultuous season in which Balthazar found himself frequenting the Element Hall as well as the various brothels and taverns of Almund, Balthazar had come to the conclusion that he could be of service to the Elements. This conclusion was marred only by his recent failures...

Initiate me into Defiance. Isabella countered as she poured water from a jug into a kettle. Balthazar shook his head.
That's not fair. That initiation kills more initiates than it converts. Attunement it's nearly as dangerous. Balthazar countered as he took a seat at the table....

Balthazar sat across from Isabella with his legs crossed. She, who had chosen to wear a black dress with dark purple accents to the occasion, sat with her knees folded in front of her. She was nervous and though Balthazar was...
'I'll look into it.' Balthazar said confidently before taking his leave of Nellies' Brothel. - Nellies' Girls: Brute Squad (1)
17 Zi'Da 719
Balthazar sat in the Buckle & Chain tavern, eyes scanning the crowd for the man who's scar had given him away as the brute responsible for beating...
'Unfortunately for you, I don't have any evidence... yet.' Balthazar knelt down and grabbed Scar-face by his shirt. 'So I'm going to get a confession.' - Nellies' Girls: Brute Squad (2)
18 Zi'Da 719
There had certainly been easier investigations than the one Balthazar found himself...
17 Zi'Da 719
An ill-fated visit to the Element's Hall had revealed two things to Balthazar. The first and less important of the two things he learned while there was that the military of Scalvoris had elected to use the elements as categories for their ranks and were not actually comprised of a...
We no go back. The Mer hissed as she dragged the Biqaj through the water, blood streaking like a trail behind them. Now it began to throb near her hand, the salt water soothing and stinging it in equal measures. It distracted her enough to...

The City Council of Scalvoris can be found in the Scalvoris Council Halls. The word Halls is correctly in the plural as there are a number of buildings, spanning across a small bridge spanning the river which winds through...
