[QUOTE="Falcon42, post: 7128792, member: 21230"] [CENTER][U][B]Campaign Idea: The Legacy of Man[/B][/U][/CENTER] • The One Above All- main deity, represented by the sun. • The One created his 4 daughters, represented by the world and 3 moons. The world is the youngest (4th) child.

The 4th daughter, however, was very talented and nurtured her creations. Life flowed abundantly upon her in many shapes and forms and her selflessness pleased The One greatly.
