(Squire Bluffs, Some-when in a distant past)
Not exactly a story, but a work in progress of the people of Squire Bluffs. Do not take offense if I have left off your name, because GemStone II, The First Worlde, was 20-plus years ago. I invite you to add anyone I have overlooked in a comment, please. Likewise, please take no offense if there is no phrase next to your name, my grey matter only held on to so much…
When Luxelle was young, she walked the lands with some of the greatest Legends of the lands. Many are all but forgotten, but here are a few glances at our colorful past. From these, and others, Luxelle learned the ways of Elanthia and the art of The Cleric.
