You may or may not have seen my post earlier about needing a few writers. Well, since then, the game has been coming along swimmingly. The script has just hit 100 pages, so some real progress is being made. Unfortunately, one of my writers had to leave the team as he became too busy to help anymore, and with me getting a job, we feel like now is the right time to bring on one more member to the team. We are looking for one more writer who is both semi open (Can at least write or appear for two days out of the week.) and can jump right in with what we already have established. (We will give you a week to a month to catch up with what we have. After this grace period, you will be expected to write from time to time.) Speaking of what we have, the old overview I provided in my last post does not do our story justice anymore, so here is a new overview to get some of you interested. That is what I have so far. Should mention this is a team effort so they will also be asked to give feedback on others writing in the script and that they should expect to receive some on theirs too
Summary of Plot
The continent of Praejhin was once under the control of a mighty Empire led by King Olfirin the 1st and his Queen, Sapphire. But one day, that Empire fell due to an unknown cause. It came to be known as The Tragedy across the lands, or The Day When The Sun Was Eaten. None knows whether it was a curse laid upon the land, some kind of accident, or something even more sinister, but what is known is that The Tragedy changed the face of the continent forever. Legends say that on The Day The Sun Was Eaten, half of all life on the continent vanished. The entire east half of the continent was enshrouded by a sphere of raging winds as black as the night sky. None could get in or out. Shortly after The Tragedy occured, a new Kingdom began to flourish in the West of Praejhin. Established in the lush green forests that lay on the west side of the continent after The Tragedy.
The Kingdom of Chaiban is currently ruled by King Aelric. Most of the income is earned by exporting its immense amount of lumber via established trade routes along the Rivers. It was thought that no one in the sphere of darkness survived, but 150 years after The Tragedy, the sphere would dissipate and reveal a new empire in the East. What used to be vast open forests now revealed themselves to be deserts after The Tragedy, with the people living there having not only survived the tragedy, but also live in complete isolation due to the sphere that was engulfing them. The newly founded G’rulian Empire would remain peaceful with the Kingdom of Chaiban for a time. The Empire of G’rulu was founded 100 years ago by King Olfirin the 3rd, the descendent of King Olfirin the 1st. At the time, he and his people were still feeling the effects of the Tragedy in full, living in full isolation due to the sphere of fierce winds that surrounded them. Any that would attempt to escape were ripped to shreds. 50 or so years later, and the sphere suddenly vanished, and the current King of G’rulu, King Olfirin the 4th, rejoiced as he and his people got to see the outside world for the first time.
Living in the extreme heat of the desert combined with former knowledge that The Tragedy had once occurred where they now live, the G’rulian people began to prioritize strength and knowledge over all else. Seeking to find not only the truth of the mysterious incident, but also prevent it from happening again. It was also shortly discovered after G’rulu’s foundation that more ruins lie there from a civilization long before the previous Empire. This civilization came to be known as The Seraphims, and it did not take long for G’rulu to become a central hub for scholars, researchers, and ruin hunters from the world over with the combined temptation to learn of the Tragedy and the Seraphims. It is these same scholars and adventurers that provide G’rulu with most of its cash, but G’rulu is also a massive exporter of ores from various mining towns. G’rulu currently has three generals under King Olfirin’s command. General Jianna is known for not having an equal in light magic across G’rulu, General Seger is in charge of the war effort with Chaiban, and General Victoria, the King’s adopted daughter, is in charge of affairs within G’rulu itself. Peace between the two nations has lasted around 50 years since G’rulu was established. But now… G’rulu has grown bold, beginning to invade, crossing Chaiban’s borders. King Aelric, having just lost a General, now holds a mock battle to help him decide who the next General of Chaiban will be…
While all this occurs, a conspiracy begins unravelling in G’rulu that is so large, it threatens not only the fate of the war itself, but also the future of the planet as a whole.
