The Awen — three rays of inspiration within a brushed seal

UO Awen

A shard of Britannia, kept by song.

The Three Rays

Awen is the breath the bards followed home. Three rays of inspiration, one each for the songs of what was, what is, and what is yet to come. Iolo of Yew once said the word was given to him by a wisp at the edge of the Deep Forest, and that it tasted of cold spring water.

This shard takes that name. The land is still Britannia, and Lord British still keeps his castle by the Bay; but the keeping of the songs - the small histories, the new towns, the players who walk these roads after the Avatar has long since gone home - that part is ours. We call this stretch of the world Awen.

The Shard

Come and Sit Awhile

We gather first on Discord, while the gates are still being hung. Bring questions, bring lute strings, bring the names you want to walk under when the shard opens.
