For months now the nexus worlds have been invaded with swarms of
serpentine creatures. Initially, these swarms have been contained, but
lately the magnitude and strength of the invasions allowed a few of
these creatures to break through the nexuses and onto the prime.
Investigations revealed that the planes were stable and the nexus worlds
were acting as anchors as they were meant to. The cities and communes
were at a loss to explain where these invasions were coming from, though
there were reports of clandestine groups gathering ancient manuscripts
and speculation in the various bards guilds related to the Dead Voices.

Eventually, the escalating import of these invasions caught the
attention of the Elder Gods and prompted Elostian to call an Elder God
High Summit. They discussed the fact that these creatures were obviously
denizens from an ancient cosmic plane. While it was recognized that
cosmic creatures of this nature, similar to demons and angels, generally
do not travel in aetherspace on their own volition, there has been
precedent in the past of certain higher beings using such lesser
creations as armies. Though speculation on what could be controlling
them was heated, the Elder Gods eventually agreed to join together to
hunt for the origins of these creatures, to find their cosmic creche,
and deal with this crisis at the root.

And so the Elder Gods have left the Basin, embarking upon an expedition
deep into the vastness of the Void.
