Explanation of current events according to Sutra
Distant Suns
[http://www.amtgard-eh.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=113]
Explains a scenario that took place at the Birthday Bash @ Tanglewood. The quest that was slatted to run 24hrs didn't exactly do that and had some snags but other than that, it was a good first run for me. Learned alot that day! This thread talks about why Sutra knows 'so much' about the current situation in the kingdom (besides being the hogging quest kid). On his way back from his meeting at Tanglewood he trips on the Mallabus cult in the middle of a ritual. He manages to 'persuade' a member to dispel some secrets. The post with the young girl under threat of being violated was actually the current woman’s nightmare. I wrote that as an experimental piece and wanted to possibly tie in this character as either a sister or daughter. Only dilemma is, Sutra is about 26 years of age, so he couldn't possibly have a daughter. The memory takes place at around the girls 14th year and she is currently in her early 20's. She wakes up and finds herself released. We may or may not see her again. The last post leads up to the response in Forest's "Battle in the Woods"
Battle in the Woods
http://www.amtgard-eh.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=121
This is a thread Sir Forest wrote. Sutra's response was that of capturing a male member of the cult and pinning a message to his chest. The mark made his destination only to be accidentally shot by one of the fresh scout guards at the quiet Eagleshire. The message contents were not written out but a pm was sent to the recipient. Sir Forest, having been tipped off heads to see Regent Blaise, Sutra satisfied that the message made it to the right man, heads to Midnight Sun to warn the next the person he was told had received one of the visions/prophecies.
Finding Sutra
http://www.amtgard-eh.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=38
A thread started by Thangorn was meant to describe his journey to find a seemingly 'late' Sutra, who had promised to return to the duchy in time for the town's mini-coronation of the new local monarchy. The abstract post of an angry and mutilated steer is really a nightmare symbolic of the bad fortune his father had suffered at the hands of fate. There was no tongue less steer, it represented how his father toiled and lost anything useful in life by turning his back on it. It was simply for background noise. The post about the dying child is actually a memory Sutra recants during the kingdom's campaign some years back. He had never seen death up close and this was a rather disparate and intimate memory of life and death. The longest post in this thread is side story regarding attacks on the populace and the old alchemist whose son, the town’s chief of security leaves to find the source of the problem.
[Note] Sutra is "tripy" because he had just given up the dark god of Morgorach from his own body. It was role-play three years back, with the elven/morgorach wars. It was the war that decimated the elven nation. Sutra currently looks for the elves to make amends.

Sutra found the messengers tome/notes (the guy who got arrowed accidentally) For a few weeks now, Sutra has had a unique glimpse inside the thoughts of a member of the cult and has much to share with the kingdom's crown on this matter. This thread depicts Sutra's return to a quite Duchy, due to the pilgrimage to either the great midreign or the wall city. Sutra, prepares to travel to the midreign event south.
The Walled City

Sutra, making his way down to the Trikingdom midreign, fell into some problems and his path was diverted to a new city. The Walled City. There he was led to the Knight's location where he plans to rest for a season.
