Chapter One: Ex Nihilo

[Quantum Rain]

To all that are still interested...

Attention all hands!
-Each world will have its own topic, to which is to be posted in the same section. (People will post the topics as they are utilized, they will NOT be pre-posted, as we have world descriptions, such is unnecessary...)

-HOWEVER, a chapter will be declared as its own separate topic. Each chapter topic can be posted in but only for people posting generalizations of what their characters are doing, also, this is optional.

-When transferring from one world to the next, ensure that at least one of the participants in the specific events post so in an ooc kind of way.

Above are the rules of how we shall play the game. Feel free to start posting/creating topic world things as you see fit and play the game. Remember, play the game fair. Play the game, man...

Anyway, you probably want me to make a chapter starter post here, don't you? DON'T YOU AGENT!? Suuuure you do...

Chapter One

Ex Nihilo

"The worlds as we know it have begun to tear at each others throats. All of the concepts and ideas of peace, annihilated. A total war has begun, a new stage to the conflicts of the gods. Avalon will know their wrath, She will know their power, and She will hunger for more. Now War shall be created from nothing."
- Oracle of Luminarium, 100 years ago

Many years have passed since the war's beginning, many have forgotten why or how this all started. Some say that it has always been there, that we have just assumed there was a beginning. It may be supposed that they are correct, for in our time, whenever something has a beginning, something has an end, and such an idea may be a vain, rumored hope. No, this seemingly eternal war rages on still for, through rock, through roads, through forests and desert, it tolls the weak and powerless. For there is no mercy in this war. There never has been...

And now Chaos marches forward onto the Elvish worlds, her hordes and swarms wrecking and pillaging along the way. Long has Anima's guardians held the line against these discordant forces, but here it will be shown forever if this effort were in vain. Now these guardians must protect themselves from the assured destruction of the Mad Goddess.

Meanwhile, Aeon has set his eyes onto Exitium and his undead hordes. Taking advantage of the reprieve created by Chaos's change in focus, he has begun his campaign towards the undead homeworld of shadow, the dark harbinger of death, Umbra. He will bring light to its barren, black fields, that is if the Lord of Death will leave such an affront unchallenged. Already, though, the Dead, Dread, and Cursed legions of the Dead God have begun to regroup from the war against Anima. He will not allow these 'angels' to taint his lands.

Many have wondered how long the war has raged on for, how long the war shall remain... with the start of these new conflicts, these transgressions, hopes of an end to the war are once again dashed. But there is something different of this new stage of the war. Something no one accounts to, something that will change the tide... for if war is created from nothing, than so to shall a story form. So too can hope, life, and liberty. So too can death, destruction, loss, and devastation. So too can famine, pestilence, revival, and glory. So too can heroes emerge, and villains declare themselves... a new wind is blowing... a new storm, brewing... The story has only just begun, and it too shall be born from nothing, as was all creation. Ex Nihilo, it all began.
