[QUOTE="Stoat, post: 4362318, member: 16786"] The method: Every thousand years, the world [i]changes[/i]. Mountains rise out of the plains. Seas dry up. Rivers are diverted. Continents tear apart and reform. All of these changes, however, happen smoothly, over the course of a year or two. Fire doesn't rain down from the sky. The earth doesn't crack open. On the other hand, the disruption in trade, travel and communication caused by the dramatic changes causes political unrest, instability, etc. A kingdom protected by a high mountain range may suddenly find itself exposed to attack. A trade empire centered on an inland sea may find itself on the edge of a desert. The reason: An extraordinarily powerful Titan grows bored with the shape of creation. It may be necessary to defeat the Titan in open combat. It may be necessary to imprison the Titan, or seal it away fro the world. It may be possible to persuade the Titan to leave the world alone.
