YEAR ONE | YEAR TWO | YEAR THREE

TIMELINE OF EVENTS
SPRING IN 2,701 (Mar, Apr, May)
  • MARCH - The new king of birds brings late snowstorms and a deep freeze to the Drabwurld. Visiting the ruins of Caer Scima, Javik travels with Katsa to assist refugees to the Third Tooth of Dorchadas. Javik visits Vanessa's spire, and once the snow has gone, he visits Damon and his sand worms. Maglor will be gone, having left Javik his magic ring and a shard-palantir. Javik is now the last of the Fellowship of Grumpy Old Men (and a Genie). Aragorn uses the shard-palantir to contact those that also have one.
  • APRIL - Reul's Right Hand, The Winter King and Unseelie General Saber Alter recruits Javik as an officer in the military. Not one to let emotions get control of him, Javik will bust up that harp as soon as he realizes what's going on. Time not spent flipping out about harps will be used to continue patrolling Dorchadas.
  • MAY - No more lockets or fairy rings or monarchs! Javik goes swan hunting, and racks up some cash to fund his travels. He stops in at the new trading post, meeting Vol'jin's brother-of-sorts, Thrall. At the Station he crosses paths with Midna, and they both head south together. Unfortunately, the road to Treun is awfully close to Seelie territories...

SUMMER IN 2,701 (Jun, Jul, Aug)
  • JUNE - Javik attends, but does not participate in the tourneys at Treun. He reconnects with Effy, Ben and Hikaru, and meets Diarmuid and Katherine. Athame has her second litter of puppies in the city. Following the tourney he meets with Debal to discuss replacing Vridan's grave marker... and the governor gets to dogsit Prativ for awhile. 

  • JULY - Javik heads south to Leathann, and is entirely unaware of the hangings in Daonna until news reaches that far south.

  • AUGUST - Leathann's Festival of Lights occurs during the second week. Javik attends and observes, and visits the Tower of the Oracle. While there's no obvious mark left behind by Vridan, the design of the tower is reminiscent of the architecture found on Feros and Eden Prime. Returning to the mainland, Javik teams up with Diarmuid to take down some rampant forest golems.

FALL IN 2,701 (Sept, Oct, Nov)
  • SEPTEMBER - Language is of no concern to him when people lose the ability to understand one another. He returns to Treun for the wreath festival, and is knee-deep in the resulting riots. 'Wish you were here' postcard material. Ben takes a look through Javik's eyes to check up on him, and Javik doesn't appreciate it.

  • OCTOBER - Samhain! Javik meets Wan (twice), argues with Damon, gets drunk with Unseelie soldiers and the Brucolac, gets harassed by Effy and Archer and dances with Vanessa. He later returns to Vanessa's spire despite her warning against it. 

  • NOVEMBER - After Samhain, Javik makes his yearly trip to Loch Sluagh, to visit the grave of Vridan and replace the marker. Following this he will return to Dorchadas to pick up his duties in the Unseelie army.

WINTER IN 2,701/2,702 (Dec, Jan, Feb)
  • DECEMBER - Protheans may have evolved as hunters, but the White Hart gets the drop on him. Javik will be a bear for the remainder of the month.

  • JANUARY - Travelling Dorchadas and/or a bear.

  • FEBRUARY - Travelling Dorchadas. Javik catches up with Katsa at the third spire, Diasbaile.

SPRING IN 2,702 (Mar, Apr)
  • MARCH - The skeletons strike while Javik is at Damon's spire.

  • APRIL - Missing fairies. Who cares.

"Does it matter? Neither of us understands the other, or maybe both of us do. I still don't like you."

She placed her chin in her palm, elbow propped on the table, and grumbled into it. She wasn't in the mood to talk about herself and could honestly say she didn't care why Javik was how she was. That she didn't like him was enough: she would disagree with him simply because she wanted to do so.

"Are we?"

Javik wasn't wrong, she supposed. Katsa could think of a few she disliked but who were still simple enough to understand, at least as she saw them.

"What side is it, exactly, that we're on?" she asked then. If she couldn't understand Javik by talking, perhaps she could try to figure him out by asking as much as she needed to know. "Why are you fighting? What do you want out of all this?"

She narrowed her eyes at him and said nothing. "Fighting because that is what I am good at doing." She had been right earlier: Katsa was more like Javik than she cared to admit.

"You're fine just being a tool," she said, with no confrontation in her voice.

"That isn't all you have to know," Katsa said, and there was something strained in her voice—as though she wasn't wholly sure she believed it, either.

It was a testament to how long she'd been in Allaidh Darach, how accustomed she'd grown to it, that she didn't immediately question the length of time his people had been dead nor how he'd survived it. Katsa pushed her mug back and forth between her hands before she added, "I am sorry, though. About your people. And whatever war caused it."

She looked up and scowled. This was making her uncomfortable, and she knew exactly why that was—she simply did not wish to confront it and the uncertainties that talking to Javik always raised in her.

"Of course you don't require anything else. I'm very sure you don't require anything else at all. Requiring is not the same as wanting or accepting."

Whether they were even talking about the same thing any more she wasn't sure.

"I don't like feeling that there's anything similar between you and me," Katsa snapped, and that was her answer. "Whatever else, it doesn't matter. Why should I say anything to you when you care to listen as well as I do to you?"
