When Worlds Collide (Open)

[Aegis]

Ymiden 33, 719

It would be visible for nearly all those within the Northern parts of Gauthrel.

And for those in the know, which is mostly natives, they would see the problem immediately. A great Rend had been opened up in the air above Gauthrel, tearing apart the sky, the very fabric of reality. It stretched from the ground upward to unfathomable heights. While no one could possibly know this, this was the single largest Rend ever formed, ever since the first rupturing spark took hold of a mortal.

But nothing came through the Rend into Gauthrel.

Instead, the mountain the Rend was formed next to began to move. It moved slowly, heading straight for the portal, but it moved. For miles in all directions, the ground shook with each step from the mountain. For any with a sharp enough mind, they would be able to tell that it would take roughly twenty bits for the mountain to reach and pass through the rend.

And for those with incredibly sharp eyes, they would be able to see a group of men and women atop the mountain, arms held up and outward toward the Rend. And all across the surface of the mountain, movement could be seen, much like one might see a swarm of ants moving through the grass. But these were not ants. These were thralls. Legions of them.

Charles Lemont and Shareen were there, watching, awaiting their orders, having already relayed what they were seeing to Faith and the other Zuuda in the area. For not only were they witnessing a mountain move toward a massive portal, protected by an army of undead, they could see what it was moving toward. On the other side of the Rend, was Rharne's own mountain.

And Abanaxus was on a collision course with it.

This is open to anyone. Do note that this is one of the Ymiden 33rd events, and as such, only one of these events may be participated in, for they all occur simultaneously. I will post again on June 25th. If no one joins by then, I will close this out and determine the consequences. Posting Rules: This event will require once a week posting from all participating PCs. Failure to post within the 1 week period will result in your PC "Freezing up" during that round, meaning that, depending on the situation they are in, consequences can be harsh, which can include death and permanent loss of character. This is an extremely dangerous, prominent event, and should be treated as such.

On the 6th July I will post again, (editing the original post if appropriate) and the thread itself will begin in earnest. Any questions, ask. For those who have already posted, you may add a spoiler/sptitle to your post, updating it with the information of completed threads that will affect this one. For an example, see this post here)

1st Ymiden: Intelligence in Uthaldria gives us information on Uthaldria's beastiary here

14th Ymiden: Receive Intelligence re: people buying supplies for going into a Fracture in Uthaldria. In Contingencies , Varlum goes there with Charles and Shareen. Faith asks Hominy to research Fractures in / around that area.

Waiting on mod-note there, but hopeful that we know we're going into a Grand Fracture.

In between these dates, Faith moves between the two places - via Dreamwalking - I've fixed my Dreamscape, so can do so. During that time, will learn about and explore the abandoned base. To get more info etc.

23rd Ymiden: Let Your Soul Be Your Guide Upon receiving that intelligence report, Faith leaves Sirothelle, meeting Charles in Zuudaria. They talk - she goes with him. The thread then sets out their tactics and ends with them just setting off up the mountain.

Waiting on a mod-note as to what we find, then we'll post new thread (s).

After taking a long hard look at how this new style of event is operating, I have come to a decision, with the consultation of other staff, to adjust how this event is being handled. Part of this adjustment will be the retconning of these event threads. The primary reason for this is that they were mishandled by myself at onset, for they were effectively creating an a mess of either guaranteed consequences and retcons. As such, these threads will be locked. However, because this is of no fault to the PCs involved, all PCs may collect 10 skill points (not magic) from these threads. The information in these threads should not be referenced or considered canon, and thus should be considered as having never happened. Thank you for participating in these, and I deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Please see the The War of Death and Souls 2.0 for more information
