Many years passed, and finally, the races are coming out from hiding, tentatively exploring the world again.  Some Horrors or their creations are still around.  Some Kaers are still sealed against all intruders, while others proved too weak to resist the Horrors and were invaded, the inhabitants killed or worse...  The Kaers that survived the Horrors are the Points of Light in a world filled with ruins, the remnants of the Horrors invasion, and lost magic and treasures.</blockquote>
