Hello there, and welcome to Elyria!
The best way to get involved right now is by playing the Dance of Discords- it's like the Game of Thrones except everything is made up and points don't matter. You can start with the official Discord. From there, you can choose a server, then choose a kingdom, then choose a duchy, then choose a county, and then you get to choose a barony. By this point you've probably joined half a dozen extra discords for guilds and what not, none of which will be very active except for the occasional obnoxious @everyone ping.
This is how we spend our time.
