On his way from the lodge today, Sirion stopped to nail a poster to the door.

Phoenixes & Other Adventurers!
The Time of Flowers is upon us, and when better to be in a dark, damp dungeon crawling with foes and even chests that may be waiting to eat you?
Therefore, join me in Durlag's tower on the 11th!
You get your share of the treasure.
We meet here. We go to the tower.
What more needs be said?
To the glory of adventure!
Sirion Te'dwa

No level requirement, outsiders welcome, could potentially be a horrific crashfest.
Bring enough IQ to tie your leather boots and we're good. Whee! ))

"They're just furry and misunderstood."
"Is that why you are killing them?"
"Yes. They will atone in death."
"Ah. That will help them understand."
After some hours spent in the lodge, Sirion went outside only to return moments later with a half-eaten arm in hand. He left the arm in a bucket in the basement and wrote a short report before departing once more.
Edit: The arm was soon taken elsewhere.

After waking on one of Netanya's sofas Celestia entered the lodge library where she was angered by the condition of it. She quickly ordered it placing all tomes back upon each shelf. Furthermore, she made sure they were all standing upright as some were placed back sideways lazily. After properly ordering it Celestia proceeded to remove hordes of dust. While attending to the cleaning she found alerted Netanya to the existence of a mouse hole between one of the shelves on the far wall as you enter the library. She was most upset about this situation and thanked Celestia for alerting her to it. Nalissa was upset at what can only be described as Netanya's intention to exterminate the vile diseased ridden vermin. Upon total completion she told Netanya and Nalissa she did it all as a favor, and as a service to Oghma and Mystra whom Celestia felt would have been most displeased with such an un-ordered library.
After convincing Jordan to make an appointment with a recommended hair-stylist Netanya would proceed to instruct the young elf, who thinks herself a dwarf, in dining etiquette - to include how to properly eat nuts.
Some time during the day the towering red-haired woman known as Kamine Waynn would stop by the Phoenix Company Lodge. She stayed only for a quick drink by herself before leaving a sealed note for the Administrator before departing.
[Posted on the appropriate spaces around the Phoenix Company lodge:]
Hello fellow members of the Phoenix Company:
Many of you may know me and some do not. I'm Emberly Endrick, the sorceress formerly known as Drakosa. I am a returning member of the Phoenix company and I'm glad to be back. I have been asked by administrator Netanya with leading a series of regularly scheduled adventures, which I was happy to accept!
I would like to invite all of you to a weekly (tentatively) expedition open to all members of the company that I will lead with the goal of letting company members get to know one other better, learn each other's strengths and weaknesses, and to help newer and less combat ready members get some valuable experience working with and supporting company allies, and hopefully earning a bit of wealth in the process.
These missions will not be treks into overwhelming danger against the most powerful nightmares of the Sword Coast. There will certainly be danger and a chance to show off the might and ingenuity that makes you a valuable member of the team, but I wish to keep casualties to a minimum and allow newer members and less combat oriented a chance to develop their ability alongside veterans.
I look forward to the participation of anyone interested.
Emberly Endrick
[OOC:]
- The goal is to create a series of ongoing 1/week casual combat and gold gathering missions open to all members of the Phoenix Company
- Emberly will post the time and location of each mission on the Phoenix company discord server for ease of access
- This is a fully In Character exercise, and the goal will be to improve team dynamics and create shared experiences
On the 20 of Eleint Phoenix Company mysteriously found itself under assault from a group of zombies attempting to storm the Lodge. Though the zombies managed to overwhelm the outside guards and breach the front door the defenders inside managed to halt the assault before they could penetrate further into the Lodge.
As Netanya left the lounge area of the lodge Celestia would whisper to Nalissa not to dismiss the magical copy of Netanya yet. Nalissa of course asked why and Celestia responded with “why? Well so we can have our very own waitress of course”. Oh Netanya! Celestia said to the magical duplicate do ever so fetch Nalissa and I some tea and biscuits.
Nalissa then tried to tell Celestia how they maybe shouldn’t be doing this and that it just doesn’t seem right. But eventually Nalissa caved in to Celestia’s peer pressure after listening to Celestia rant about how its important to have fun when you are able. And that it is even more fun when you are hungry. So she elbows Nalissa to take control of the copy and orders the food from Samson. He to was not very much into it at first but he came around after Celestia started making a stack of coins on the table between the sofas. And the rest was a giggling tummy aching sweets devouring fun. Even Samson eventually joined in and had laughs. Then the three of us left for the evening, forgetting to un-summon the Netanya copy standing in the middle of the room with a tray in her hand.
Following a potentially high risk operation and subsequent deliberation Netanya directed the destruction of the artifact; thus forever vanquishing the threat posed by Polvich.
It is rumored that Terri 'Xon, Wai Li, and Captain Sinoc Haven of Everwatch Knights was recently in the frontier town to meet with High Rider Lord Dhelt regarding the use of a Divine Artifact.
A particularly odd gnome by the name of Fibbis Namus (everyone knows it is a fake name) appears to be staying at the Inn. There seems to be one of the twins, either Azriel or Azriana Sumormoon, who usually guard the front instead are acting as an armed escort for the gnome.
A hub of activity is occurring at the Phoenix Company Lodge and Guild Hall with new faces and talks of new adventures. One Rumor in particular centers around an expedition into Troll claws on 13th of Nightal with the intent of investigating the Reports of colossal creatures of different shapes and sizes have been seen marching through the mountain pathways leaving behind destruction along the trade routes.
The recently appointed councilor of the Phoenix Company buzzed around the kitchen, preparing all kinds of goodies for the first arranged meeting of the Company since its restart. Mathilde, in her usual chaotic ways and lack of planning, seemed to prepare things at random. Those who took a closer look at her might conclude that her mind was scattered and all over the place. If they did not, the misplacement of various items might help draw that conclusion. Cakes, drinks, and foods were randomly placed on tables, with some failing to even make it to the meeting room. Nevertheless, sufficient resources seemed to have made it there.
When preparations were finished, Mathilde went outside for some fresh air.

As Lilly glides into the lodge, her presence commands attention. With a serene smile, she places a sealed envelope into Samson's hand, with voice of a melodious and sweet whisper as she requests:
- Would you be so kind, my dear, as to deliver this letter to Madam Rose in person?
She flashes a mischievous grin, adding:
- And please, indulge in a drink on my behalf. It's the least I can offer for your assistance."
As she leaves him a tip that's three times the value of the most expensive drink on the menu, she gracefully exits the lodge with a playful wink, leaving behind an aura of intrigue
''In the depths of night I am the guiding star that leads you astray, leaving you spellbound in my wake...'' - Lilly
