Chapter 2Year 1437, 3rd Week of Sextilius Until: January 27th Level Cap: 4 CrescendoYou woke up in the darkness.Something shackled you. It feels as if either a grinding gears interlocking one another and forcing your movement, many writhing thorny and slimy tentacles, or a flaming chain reeking of sulfurs and hellfire. You attempted to break free from whatever binding you, but instead it forces you to move according to its whim. You tried to call out to the dark void spreading towards any direction. But not even an echo can be heard answering your plea. Then you heard some sounds. Approaching sounds. Then you see people. Many people. Some you might know. Some you might not know. You tried to shout again, but something deep within your heart held you. Then you see the people, all are moving according to the whatever frame they have, just like you are being moved by your binding frame. Then a loud crack, or a loud hiss, or a loud clank, echoed. You broke free, and instinctively took a step away towards the dark void. Then a few step away, one step at a time. One step at a time, until you realized that you are not breathing. And now you realize, that there are several other people also broke free from their bindings: Woman chained in red flames to a dark cross. Person bound by pale hand chain and silver flame. Interlocking flaming chain buried deep into someone. Kneeling person tied to incomprehensible gears. A woman hung with restraining vines, strangled at neck. Young man tied to strings and interlocking gears. Black garbed masked woman, grabbed by thorny and slimy tentacles. White cube composed various gears with grey haired woman. Woman in torn white dress with purple stain, constricted by otherworldly tentacles. Man held by white slender arms. Naked man chained to the ground in kneeling position. Young blonde boy held like marionette by extremely thin red chain. Clothless woman riding tentacles and thorny tendrils in pleasure. Red haired teenage boy hung at the ankle on a gigantic tree. And many others, with one of them is yourself. You took a glimpse of them. They took a glimpse of you. You know some of them. You had some adventure with them. Then you looked back. You can see some other people, still bound to whatever binding them. Hundreds. Thousands. Uncountable, until void engulfed them and attempted to engulf you. On last, last split seconds, you thought you see some faces more clearly. Or faces you have met. Or faces you knew for long. But this time, you think that you can remember their faces. Maybe. Or at least, soon. They still bound to their despairs. Then you woke up. StepsYou have decided.The world you knew seemed changing. There have been growing rumors about certain adventurers who braved the dark world of Tenebras Mundi. There have been increasing gossips regarding people from faraway lands visiting. There have been numerous reports between the inquisitions regarding the Independent Inquisitors activities. For better or worse, this first step for a more open world.

Session 111: Black The Beast Descend From ShadowRoom4, January 15, Night Area: Remnants of Sanus Start: Week 1 Octolius Set: Week 2 Octolius Public RumorsRumors said there were sudden infestation of Grimm in Emerald Forest, Remnants of Sanus. The sudden outburst put the Knights of Orleans and Forest Rangers in tight position to defend the Town of Orleans. However, it was said those creatures suddenly just gone after they started to push Orleans' defenses, as if the source was eliminated by unknown force.
Regardless, concerning rumors about safety in Remnants were around, as both Knights of Orleans and Forest Rangers' condition in the aftermath was much left undesired. Injuries, death, and missing personnel plaguing both groups, whose numbers were already small to begin with. Inquisitor's NotesThe Huntsmen asked for Independent Inquisitors' aid to strike down the source of Grimm's appearances which already spread around the Emerald Forest. Independent Inquisitors under the name of Averyn, E, Leonovich, and Silosse answered the call and eliminated the Horrors which became the source of the Grimm in a deserted village. Huntress Ruby Rose assisted in the effort, but nearly lost her life when the group encountered the Horrors.
It was said the Independent Inquisitors found a tied rope with corrupted fabric, which might held a clue of the Horrors' appearances in the village. Currently, those clues were either held by the Knights of Orleans or the Forest Rangers. InquisitorsAveryn E Leonovich Silosse LogsLog

Session 119: We Need to TalkRoom4, January 24 Evening Area: La Luna Rossa Start: Week 4 Novemius Set: Week 5 Novemius Public RumorsThere're numerous rumors of Horror's appearances that fortunately successfully dealt by local inquisition this several months. The information just come out as a rumor recently. Inquisitor's Notes{Report} Year 1437, 4th Week of Novemius
We've been visited by two member of Independent Inquisition. Unfortunately, only two of our member that can welcome them as we were quite busy at the time. Their coming is for replying our invitation for some discussion regarding our course of action.
The problem we've at hand is that: 1) The increasing number of Horror appearances in La Luna Rossa put us in bind in how to manage our human resources. 2) Shadow Parade are busy in the midst of investigating Baemu Farm from long before. 3) A high density of undead comes from The Graveyard of La Luna Rossa, Le Eclissi is in the midst of investigation regarding that, possibility of Horror was there. 4) Knight of the Moon is unreliable lately, they're oblivious to the state of La Luna Rossa, they doesn't have a good information network to deal with Horrors quickly. 5) There's chance that Knight of the Moon and Le Eclissi will be on each other throats when Knight of the Moon know the existence of Le Eclissi.
So with that problem in mind, we got opinions from the Independent Inquisitors. Green as they are, they are the only cross-region inquisitor known to men, their experience in handling inquisition in each region might give us insight of how to deal with this predicament. And by the visit, we conclude ourselves to put our faith in Knight of the Moon and will tell them about this whole thing and cooperate with them. As how we're going to do that will be decided later on, one thing for sure we'll share information regarding horror to them by some kind of proxy.
