[QUOTE="Aeric, post: 3622030, member: 17012"] Some ideas: Using an eldritch machine activated by the Mark of Death, the Emerald Claw transforms every corpse in the Mournland into an intelligent, free-willed undead simultaneously. These undead are quickly brought under the leadership of Vol who, disguised as Queen Dannel, launches a crusade of retribution against the remaining nations that brought this ruin down upon them. The Mournland is not actually the ruins of Cyre, but a demiplane designed to look like it by Cyran wizards. The mistwall is a gateway to that demiplane, similar to the mist of Ravenloft. The Day of Mourning was a clever ruse designed to fake the death of Cyre, buying that realm enough time to repair and resupply for an all-out counterattack. The real Cyre is alive and well, and has been working furiously to rebuild its warmachine all these years. Finally, they are ready. The mistwall vanishes, and an army bigger, stronger, and more advanced than anything ever seen in the Last War appears on the border of every nation touching Cyre. It has been suggested that the Silver Flame is just a small part of an energy field created by the qouatl to seal the demon lords away in Khyber. If someone were to destroy that field, then all of the demons would be released at once. With a new Age of Demons underway, would the dragons of Argonessen have the courage to sacrifice themselves to create a new barrier? Or would they try and use the life-essence of another race to take its place? Faced with so many enemies, the nations of Khorvaire have no choice but to turn to Argonessen for help. However, the emissaries arrive on that mysterious continent only to find the ruins of a civilization similar to Xen'drik. It seems that the apocalyptic magic unleashed on the giants was the deathblow to the dragons as well. Those dragons still remaining have, like the giants of Xen'drik, changed into a more primitive state. There is no Chamber. There is no Draconic Prophesy. These were both the creations of the Lords of Dust, another one of their endless schemes meant to manipulate the world into releasing their masters back into the world. [/QUOTE]
