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. For many months, the Aeromancers collected cloudy essence
in an effort to stabilise the temporal anomaly. In the end, the entire
city scoured the planes for essence as emissaries of New Celest lent
their aid to opening the door, sending elemental and temporal energies
whirling through the skies around Hallifax. With the Sentinel Company
standing by to deal with any dangerous anomalies, Aeromage Vashner
De'Unnero opened the door upon a strange, washed-out laboratory of
strange implements and a statue of a half-breed trill. So went the third
door to open, revealing naught but questions and an attractive
sculpture.
Next, the Druids of the Blacktalon diligently worked to free the door
from its temporal lock. Finally, Mighty Crow took to the skies as the
temporal ties unwound and the door revealed a hollow within the Master
Ravenwood itself, a bubble from some future time. Standing within was a
petrifried tree, alone and aloof from the grey roots that surrounded it.
Thus, the fourth door was released.
Within the Tower of the Geomancers, the door frozen in time was filled
with the oily tainted essence of earth. Black clouds converged over
Magnagora illuminated by brief flashes of crimson lightning as the door
was released from its temporal field. A laboratory filled with equipment
that was far beyond the current understanding of geomancers was
unearthed as well as a statue of a viscanti with strange devices
embedded in his flesh. So came about the revelations of the fifth door.
Finally, the mysterious door within the Pyramid of the Pyromancers was
finally melted with the essence of fire, releasing it from its temporal
bondage. Purple clouds blossomed over the City of Gaudiguch as a new
room from a remote future roared into existence. Within the chamber
leached of colour was the statue of a dracnari resting on a stone
cushion surrounded by mystic implements of an unknown nature. And with
that ended the opening of the mysterious doors.
So came about six revelations out of time, from a future that may one
day be or may never manifest, a paradox so profound that it may alter
the face of Lusternia forever.
