[QUOTE="Paka, post: 1299299, member: 100"] [B]Chapter ***[/B] [I]A Future that Never Happened[/I] The Green Lady was killed a thousand years ago. The history books disagree about how she died. Some say she was poisoned and others say she was killed by a rifle bullet aimed by the Lord of Deeproot. Bahamut and Tiamat are asleep and while they slumber the very nature of magic has changed. Akashic Mind Engines tap into the living memory of humanity, Magisters debate philosophy and arcane physics. Priests no longer get spells from the Heavens. The Five Queens of Tiamat have changed the world while their Gods slept. Their rulership assures that while one of their pentad sleeps, the others stay awake keeping the empire afloat. Railroad criss-cross their empire that stretches from the Copper Mountains to the Jungles of Aronka and beyond. The Praetorian Pentad Guard keeps the peace with their halbred-rifles. Even the Githyanki City-States bend a knee to the imperious Five Queens while still pay homage to their Liche Queen. The Jade Forest Museum is rife with artifacts from the Ambassadors of the Last Age, whose histories were collected in the University of Deeproot. The 1001 Hand Axes of Thane Trouble, while not all of them have been collected, many are stored therein. The armor of General M'Randa that passed down to her daughters from generation to generation is on display this month. Randal Tisgood's quill is kept under old Elvish crystal, it wrote the contracts, oaths and proclamations that created the modern face of the Queen's Continents. The Tosscobble fields of the Ladymist College of Arcana is where Magisters learn to cast spells in the field. It is there that young casters learn to take their spells out of the laboratory and into the real world. Many of the best combat casters learn their trade there. The Old Orc District is a nice place to stroll nowadays, ever since the Goblinoid communities were relocated to the Bridge-towns centuries ago after the Green-Skin Riots. The waterfalls that gave Ladymist her name is used to power the city with hydro-electric power, keeping many of the streets light as daytime all night long. The train approaches. Your family is sending you off to make your fortune. The best schools, the most metropolitan city in the world is your final destination, over the Troll Bridge into the bustling metropolis of Ladymist. Lord-Protector Gerat has re-instated the Jade Watch, in order to investigate a baffling string of crimes. The Ever-Vigiliant Order of Ulula, The Highbridge Green Knighthood, and even the Shire Sheriff Department are all sending candidates. A master villain wielding terrible magicks has killed once again. The victim's wounds are vicious claw marks and the Green Watch found stone shards in his shop. The game is afoot. [/QUOTE]
