    The Fall of Arcturus


    Arcturus, the Crucible, stood as a meetingplace of scholars, academics, mages, sorcerors, warriors, pilgrims, sages, those blessed by fate, those with indomitable will, those in search of truth. From all corners of Vescrutia, this one location withstanding the test of time for millennia untold prepared for a coming alignment thought to beset the world with a new paradigm. There were feasts, fights, and festivities planned the whole night through to celebrate the coming age, all attendees and Orders representing a different facet of Vescrutia that came together to make up the mystique of the The Crucible.



    Any individual on site on the Eve of the Grand Crossing reveled in the celebration as the celestial alignment approached the foretold climax. Legends have been told about this formation for as long as stories have been passed and in a world where neighbors can turn against neighbors in the name of self-preservation, such a joyous occasion was meant to mark the new age with understanding, evolution, expansion of the collaborative nature all people of The Crucible strove to upkeep. Some called it the Xenophobic Age, where Factions vie for control of the land, the sea, the air, the resources of the Mother, all in efforts to protect their people from the myriad dangers that lurk in the lands between.



    Even in the heat of celebration, those dangers could descend upon anyone in the blink of an eye, such is the way of the world.



    With the coming of a new paradigm, come new challenges which were exemplified in a series of competitions specifically designed to highlight the best of the best of the world, a showcase of the Anthem and Arbiter from across the realms all in one place. Each demonstration brought raucous applause, each fight the cheers of thousands, all to represent their people where they can become something more in this new age.



    The celestial formation approached as the combatants stepped into the ring.



    The celestial formation approached as the final challenge began, a bout to mark the end of the Xenophobic Age.



    The celestial formation approached as the Herald of Death descended upon The Crucible met by Vescrutia's most mighty…



    The celestial formation passed and The Herald of Death fell silent.



    The celestial formation passed and The Crucible was no more.



    The celestial formation passed and the Herald's message pervaded the land, resting heavily in the hearts of all creation.



    And with the world's heroes seemingly vanished, the rest of Vescrutia could only ask themselves, "What now?"



    The Celestial formation brought about the Fall of Arcturus and the advent of the Age of Uncertainty.
