[QUOTE="Shardstone, post: 8726798, member: 6807784"] Yes, but weirder things have happened in lexicon of things :P When I was taking my linguistics courses in grad school, I was surprised at just how random names would change IRL, and how the most absurd things would move from one very tangential category to the next. But even if this connection is weak, which admittedly it is, change from Athas to Fyreen is also not entirely impossible over any significant time span. Persia to Iran, Siam to Thailand, Burma to Myanmar, Ceylon to Sri Lanka, and so on. Anyway, we're getting a bit in the weeds of this now, but when I run Doomspace, this will probably be the spin I take. The sun was destroyed. I'll probably say it was destroyed by people overthrowing the sorcerer-king dragons, and maybe they even did it by saying screw it, we're going to use YOUR WEAPON against you, and somehow got the Dark Lens and over-defiled the sun. Now all that's left is a world being torn apart by the gravity of the black hole, a frozen and eternal night aglow by its accretion disk and the varicolored magma spewing from volcanos made massive by aforementioned gravitational forces. Tyrants rule a waste of stardust and snow, and the few dragon kings left have went to the moons throughout Doomspace (mentioned on the 2-page spread) or are recovering from wounds deeper than flesh and bone underneath Fyreen's boreal tundra. And there's aurorae everywhere, gg. [/QUOTE]
