Adventure took place on Monday March 22nd from 7PM to 11PM CST.

The Springs of Eireian is the hot new development on Rylax, a far-flung planet with nothing else going for it. Magistrate Buto and a collection of locals and foreigners are finalizing plans for this development.

Unbeknownst to them a Swarm tendril approached the planet and is now making planetfall. The local forces are insufficient to stop them and no help is coming.

Miles away from the nearest large city and with monstrous creatures falling from the sky, those at the Springs have a matter of hours to get to the nearest planetary escape shuttle before the encirclement of the planet is complete.

Fade: Strix Outlaw Operative: It was supposed to be an easy job, you’d been hired by a rival developer to come to Rylax, scout this development, and see if you could get the deal for the incredibly valuable land for them.
