Story/Narrative

STORY/PLOT

Act 1

The people lived in peace. They were protected behind walls of earth from the elements of the world.
With an abundance of knowledge and confidence, arrogance took over the people. With everything they had they built a tower, so great and tall it reached the limits of the heavens. Their god was angered by the attempt to reach his domain, their pride was unforgivable . He sent punishment raining down upon their world. Mighty meteorites descended from the skies and broke the great Pangaea into many pieces. The waters raged and flooded, the earth split and separated, fires raged and smoke rose, there was chaos unlike any had seen.




















Act 2

As the walls of Eden broke and the people broke down as they saw everything they knew fall apart, the world watched. The four elemental gods of nature felt pity for the people and could not bear to watch their end, knowing the potential they are capable of. Earth, water, fire and air took it upon themselves to save what they could of this great civilization. They took the people unto themselves and found shelter in very distinctive terrain around the earth. Over time the people seemed to forget a lot of their past, they came to think of elementals as their gods and worshiped them accordingly. Thankful for the worship, the elements taught the separated peoples magic, a way to harness the raw power of nature they were dominion over.  After many years of co habitation the elementals fall into a slumber and leave the peoples to explore the world.

Act 3

The peoples grow restless as their gods slumber, and so they start exploring and as they explore they keep remembering, something they had long forgotten. The peoples gather knowledge from ruins scattered around the world and all come to the same realization, they lost something and the only way they would find it was to travel to their birthplace. All the seperated peoples travel to the central continent, the holy land where they had fallen from great heights and find each other not realizing they were once the same peoples, brothers and sisters of the same cloth. They fight over the land, all for different reasons. Some do it to preserve their history, others gather resources to become great and powerful and some to uncover great knowledge to regain their past glory.
