Saga Events

As events unfold in the reconstituted saga, summaries will be posted here.

1198 Spring
The Council of Magi directs Doggath of Flambeau to take a party to Hell Cat Island and collect vis from the pelt.  The Council approves the Librarian's plan to improve the Library, and directs that the Covenant's stores of Imaginem vis be allocated to Sean Campbell for the production of Mystical Platonic Dyes to be used in the creation of colored inks for the Library.   Fergus served as Magus of the Season.
Patrick of Mercere brought word from Argyll of Faerie troubles in the town Boskey Dell.  Doggath successfully collected the vis from Hell Cat Island, and Patrick of Mercere travelled to Hibernia bearing messages from Cad Gadu and Loch Leglean Tribunal.  Doggath of Flambeau sought out King Bogomir of the Fae, who was due to hold a huge Fae revel on the Covenant lands, but failed to persuade the King to move his revel.  Consors Eduard Spurius and Dairmid the Forester manage to contain damage from the revel and gain the favor of King Bogomir.
Consors Jean-Michel proceeded on a trading voyage to Ypres to trade the Covenant's wool for supplies and silver.
1198 Summer
The Council directed Doggath of Flambeau, Fergus Ex Miscellanea, and Titus Sculpas of Verditious to travel with the Falcon Watch to the mainland to collect vis crystals from the cave.  Asperus served as Magus of the Season.
The Magi sent to collect vis were successful in defeating the forces of Signa Vincum who sought to contest for the right to collet vis from the caves, but Dairmid the Forester and Brian of Donegal were slain fighting bandits in the pay of Signa Vincum.  Sean Campbell produced three batches of Mystical Platonic Dyes, which he used to create three pots of colored inks: red, blue, and green.   Fergus Ex Miscellanea recruited two former bandits to enter the service of Fitheach Tigh, who were assigned to the Wyvern and Falcon Watches.
Patrick of Mercere returns from Hibernia with news and messages for Loch Leglean.
1198 Autumn
The Council directed Alcibiades of Merinita to take Patrick of Mercere as the first guest to visit the Fey Lord and collect the Faerie vis.  The Council also approved a plan by Alcibiades to plant a large Faerie Oak in the courtyard of the Covenant, just north of the Library.  Alcibiades served as Magus of the Season, with Tain filling in during his absence.
Patrick of Mercere returns from Wales with news from the Continent and messages from Cad Gadu.  Alcibiades successfully collected the Fairie vis, and gathered a Faerie Acorn with which to plant the Faerie Oak.  He planted the tree in late Autumn, and it magically grew to a huge size in a single day.   Alcibiades further enchanted the Oak to shape itself into a Faerie Treehouse, into  which he moved his quarters and laboratory.
The Magi are increasingly harassed by bizarre occurances in the area of the Covenant.  Doggath reports that ravens are assaulting him with droppings, while Titus discovers his statues to be speaking, bleeding, and crumbling for no apparent reason.  Philograccus is heard to utter frequent embarrassing slips of the tongue.  The Covenant is visited by the Quaesitor Whitburh, who inspects the Covenant's charter and finds it, and the Covenant, to be in order.
Jean-Michel returned from his trading voyage to Ypres, Brest, and Waterford with a surplus of silver due to his creative trading arrangements.  The Covenant received a total surplus of 70 pounds of silver, in addition to the annual supplies needed, and sufficient lab materials for three labs.
1198 Winter
The Council directed that mistletoe vis be collected by the entire Council immediately following the renewal of the Covenant's Aegis on Midwinter Day.  Philograccus served as Magus of the Season.
Sean Campbell re-binds several volumes, beginning his lengthy and challenging project to improve the Covenant's meager library.   Alexander the Lame of Merinita arrived with a gift of a rook of Terram vis for the Covenant and a proposal for the Covenant's support in the Tribunal the following year.
The Magi's troubles continue, causing constant frustration and problems.  Covenfolk experience many minor curses.   Doggath of Flambeau improved his laboratory to meet Hermetic standards.
