Mardoc Wrote:Out of curiosity and impatience, how's the map progressing, anyway? :blob:
Glad you asked! I've had some really good feedback in the mapmaker's thread which I just finished incorporating, so it's now ready to be sent to Ichabod (sent him a PM asking where to send it to).
Meanwhile, here is the backstory of the world:
Ancient Lore Wrote:For eons untold, the empire of Patria ruled the world of Perun. Many were their magics, and miraculuos: gleaming airships that could cross the breadth of the world in a single day, genie servants that would carry spoken word between cities in an instant. Rivers were made to run in circles, hills raised to suit the whim of the ancient emperors.
The end came in an instant - the Cataclysm triggered a magical storm that covered the whole world, engulfing cities of the empire, evaporating billions of its citizens. Most living creatures vanished off the face of the earth that day, never to be seen again.
A millenium passed, during which smaller storms flashed across the world, destroying everything in their path, ravaging the land, leaving it barren and lifeless. Civilization survived in a few small enclaves, protected by ancient magics.
Now, as the protection wards finally fail, the descendants of survivors of the Cataclysm emerge into the light of unknown...
