[QUOTE="Angcuru, post: 1301362, member: 10948"] I'm having an idea here, but it's really hard to explain. Any here played Dragon Warrior 7 for Playstation? ANYway, it starts out that the whole world is this biggish ocean, and there's only this one little island. These three buddies are just running around having fun and all, and then all out of the blue in their wanderings they find this abandoned maze-like temple (classic). After going through, they end up finding this big room with a whole lot of pedastles, which have these squarish indentations, suggesting that there were small slabs of stone set in them at one point. Lo and behold, there's a some broken chunks of slab that appear to be engraved in a way that when the pieces are put together like a jigsaw puzzle, they form a map. Put the complete slab on the right pedestle, and *fwoosh* suddenly they're somewhere they've never seen before. Turns out that they've opened up a portal that sent them back in time to a different island, and after questing, they fix a certain problem for the people on that island, and find a way to return home. They get home, a [i]voila![/i] they see the island they just saved on the horizon. Basically, the whole world was once covered in this archipelago, and some evil entity caused all the islands but one to [i]DISSAPEAR MUAHAHAHAH!!!![/i]. But of course he misses one which turns out to lead to his downfall etc. etc. The reluctant adventurers find those shards of the stone maps when they travel back in time to the unknown islands, and return home to their own time to assemble the maps and another island pops up in their own time and place. Each island they restore reveals a piece of the plot, and I don't know the rest cause I never finished the game. Well, I think it's a really neat idea that you could draw some ideas from. Cheers. :) [/QUOTE]
