The planet Huom has been under observation for longer than should technically be possible. The primary watcher, a bitter black hole, is excited to see that there is finally a proverbial Darkness at the end of the tunnel. Meanwhile, on the planet, in the freezing mountains of Empris, Lyeasrakardsul, the oldest living sorcerer, suffers from devastating nightmares. At the same time, far away in the sandstone desert of Zenon, Herschel, a man filled to the brim with weird ideas is escaping a prison filled with strange old men. What does all this have to do with arsehole Gods, hairy Dwarfs, frustrated Afreets, curious Knomes, lizard-women, and nude Áettar? Perhaps Nothing, perhaps Everything... but why can't it be both?

Mr Rostwood asked like nothing happened. 'I...I live in the orphanage there, sir.' He answered and lifted a small and trembling finger to show him the direction he had come from.

(For ease of reading for those with mobile devices, this written work will be one story section per chapter.) It, had all started with a quest, to find the hallowed sanctuary spoken of, within the dreams of five individuals. Aederan, a world of green forests and deep blue oceans would soon be under the threat of war, from the forces of darkness. The fate of the world, rests with a girl, a prince, a princess, a swordsman, a Centaur and seven others. For, it was decided seven friends would accompany, the chosen ones. It was assumed the journey would be lengthy and perilous. It wasn't till later, before the brave adventurers grasped how much of an understatement, those words would be. Despite perilous weather, endless pursuit and numerous attempts by the enemy to destroy them, most of the original twelve had managed to survive. Berren alone, of the original twelve had fallen in the attempt. Through the combined efforts of humansU, Centaurs, the newly discovered Dreena, and lastly were the Chand, they had prevailed. Albeit, the price paid by their newbuy allies and friends had been high. Changa pondered for a moment what they had faced and their subsequent actions. The Centaur Wind Walker smiled, as he realized Elliana was providing them with exactly what they needed to complete the quest and prepare for war.
