OC Creation thread/ Discussion/commentary thread: Flood: World reborn
Message theme:
Every breeze brought boredom and just plain impatience to Earlich. How long could it possibly take for the message to get around? Other than the seemingly infinite ocean being the ONLY way to travel from place to place nowadays, especially after the great flood 176 years ago... It was an average day, and almost everyone lived in the vallies of mountains or simply out of plains. Then, of course, there was the small, odd mountain and plateau villages. Everything had been fine, until the Sapphire miners dug a bit too much.. one little wooden pickaxe hit an odd boulder, and water had begun shooting out at impossible speeds for a time that seemed to be forever.... in reality, it had set off 12 other geysers across the world, and flooded many of the cities. Luckily (and oddly), everything shifted to a lower level... Despite the ground level shifting to a lower altitude (allowing easier travel and less oxygen consumption), the cities in the depths remained in the depths. Over time, people adjusted, and a new race emerged: the Layrians. Blah blah blah new country, blah blah blah Golems coming out from inside mountains... Earlich hated it when he was revising history. Either way, his only friend that owned a boat was currently on his way to pick up those who had signed up for the journey to explore the islands that dotted the seas. Despite no real difference in weather, pressure, etc. The islands have changed, and there are supposedly many things within the islands to explore that weren't there before.... HE COULDN'T HANDLE IT! ADVENTURE WAS RIGHT THERE AND EARLICH HAS TO WAIT FOR HIS BOAT! He began his daily exploration of the woods, taking his small wooden sword with him. His sister had given him an amulet that responded to the thoughts of the holder, when activated.... I.E. dipping it in water. For such purposes, he kept a phial of water with him, as he climbed the spiraled spire that led to the bridge that then, in turn, led to the forest.... it was a long, quiet, and yet enjoyable trip.
