A (not-so) Brief Synopsis....
The Kaembran Empire is a world which has been living in a constant state of twilight for generations, due to the banishment of magic. On the surface, Kaembra was divided by two radical groups: THE LIBERISTS, who believe magic is inherently evil and too dangerous for mankind. And THE CAUSISTS, who believe in chaos theory and that magic should flourish, no matter the price. During the Age of Twilight, General Yvander Lux ruled a Liberist Kaembra until the fall of the city of Cöthrom, where the rebel Causists overthrow the vast cave city and unleashed magic into the land. That day-the day Causist battled Liberists and won-is called "REDEMPTION DAY". Once again, magic rules the land. Gone are the days of perpetual twilight. There is now a full cycle of sun & moon.
As the caves of Cöthrom crumbled, a group of unlikely anit-heroes-which include Aeroth Ravenswing, Marcus Magentum, Tic, Hiroko Dragonborn, and Aurora Bengar rescue a helpless baby girl from the darkness. With the help of Jewelynna and Wyveryn, they have since come to realize this baby, BRILLOWYN of the Feyborn, is the key to the balance of magic in the Kaembran Empire. Without her, darkness shall reign and the traitorous Simeon Okra-the mastermind of Lux's assassination-will rule with an iron fist.
They have braved the road to Tradesdale, rescued by a TRICKSTER who appears to be the King of Thieves. They have stumbled across "The Book of Everything... Well Almost" in the hut of Horatio the Wizard. They have even won the Wizard's Game in Stonehold, but not without losses. Now, in northern Kaembra, the weather grows colder and time grows shorter.
Dark times are ahead. This band of weary travelers is Kaembra's only hope....

I have read through the story so far and I am really enjoying it. A couple of things I noticed that need attention though..... There are several spelling and grammar errors throughout. Also there are points where you story jumps or contradicts itself. In the Dungeon of Stonehold you say they enter without weapons but then you talk of Marco holding his sword, then he finds a sword and sheaths it, so does he have two now. Also, you talk of Wyveryns sword glowing but again I thought they all entered weaponless. In Chapter VII: Stonehold, I think, you say that Trickster has a gift for each person in the room but Wyveryn is in the room and never receives a gift. There are a few other points throughout that could use correcting so the story makes a little more sense. Jewelynna's death and or disappearance isn't explained at all..... and many others!
Just a couple of clarifications on this, since I just saw it. 8)
Everyone except me (Wolfric) and Marco entered the dungeons with armor stolen from the prison guards. Wolfric and Marco had all their weapons and armor, since we hadn't been imprisoned. The glowing sword that Wyvern had was actually a spare sword that I had which I had cast a Light spell on to use as an improvised torch.
Wyvern ideed was given a gift, but it's possible that our beloved DM is witholding that information for a future revelation. Wyvern's a very secretive fellow and hasn't even told us what he received. We the players know, but the characters don't, so if it wasn't just an accidental omission, I don't want to spoil the surprise! 8) Happy reading!
