[QUOTE="Indagare Nogitsune, post: 9454032, member: 40018"] For a different version: [I]It is the Year of Our World 1000 Post Cataclysm. I am Novice Mette Greenfield recording on behest of Magus Ruificent. We left the demiplane of Twiver early in the morning as a group of six. Captain Gyremore and Thyroar the Strong came as guards. [I]Druid Phymore accompanied us to help evaluate the flora and fauna. Yosem the Ranger also came, since he'd travelled the furthest. [/I] The world near Twiver is healed enough that we have been able to spread outward. Still, the main citadel remains detached and offers a secure keep should any mutamals threaten. The Hedge Druids have been watching the crops carefully, and any oddities are separated and studied lest they cause trouble. Thankfully, so far most have been benign. No one wants a repeat of the jackalanterns. At nooning we rested. The sun was bright enough, though still a bit filtered by the Gauze. If ever the sun goddess Lewkae can be recovered, she will surely be able to banish that enmeshing haze. We did not linger too long since we wanted to get as far as we could before sunset. By late afternoon we had reached the edge of the healed area and could clearly see that the plants ahead bore signs of chaos. In the far distance we saw what looked like mountains--though we did not live in a valley. It was the first I'd ever seen of the Rending. As the long shadows crept closer, we set up an uneasy camp. This far from civilization, who knew what might lurk in the dark?[/I] Primordial Chaos came careening towards the Prime. The deities leapt into action to deny it. They were sundered, and the Chaos diminished, but it became obvious they could not hold it off. The Mages created Sanctuaries--demiplanes where (hopefully) civilization could be safe if worse came to worse. The last to leave--indeed the last of all--were the Biomancers who sealed the demiplanes and promised to mitigate the damage. What became of them is unknown, but their valiant efforts were not in vain. Though the Chaos Rendered the world, life did not end--though it changed almost beyond recognition. The sundered deities are known to survive, but how to revive them remains unknown. Areas of the world healed over time, allowing forays into once-familiar areas, now changed forever. The worst was the mutamals--animals changed in hideous ways. Plants were not spared either and often produced strange life. Rumors crept back that the Feywild had merged with the Prime in places, with tantalizingly placid appearance. And, somewhere, the Heart of Chaos resides. [/QUOTE]
