The City of Hallifax rang with warnings of the Code Black anomaly that had manifested in the Centre for Aeromantic Engineering in the form of a strange door.

Worker’s hammers pounded beneath the City of Gaudiguch as the Grand Cipher, Dys Mzithrei was seen speaking with Mysrai, the Thousand Hands before the Lava Falls.

A loud keening rose up from the Southern Mountains, followed by a loud explosion.

Descending into the Glomdoring Forest, Xynthin, the Ascended God of Life and the Wyrden Glory, came to fulfill his promise. “It is time,” He murmured, and tore apart Brennan Stormcrow, the undead guardian of the Master Ravenwood. Many of the Glomdoring stood awestruck as the God claimed the heart of the druid before departing. The…

Unveiled, the Ascended God Xynthin began to answer questions as quickly as He could, ever keeping His perceptions outwards, cautiously searching. Shocked silence and stunned faces looked upon Him, though as His tail unwound, Ragniliff and Xenthos began to realize and piece together more and more. And so the sad story of Xynthin was told.…

Throughout the Basin of Life dark omens appeared, ranging from the superstitious Serenwilde to the fastidious and intellectual Hallifax and everyone of all faiths between. Lorrie of Magnagora was the first to hear tell of the dark days to come, and it was fitting – for Magnagora was the first to suffer. Snaikka i’Xiia cried…
