Shards of Light

Welcome to the wiki. I've gotten to a point where google documents and excel sheets no longer suffice. It is time to build a web of ideas. Though I hope to write most of this wiki for the reader and not the writer, I do warn you there is a lot going on here and much of this will be changed throughout the process.

If you like what you see, any and all feedback is appreciated.

A World of Light and Color

"For I gain wisdom, day and night, by turning darkness into light." - Deneb, the Painter

Boreal. A world of light. Light that through the use of gem-like spellstones gives the people of the world the ability to shape and survive in the ever changing world around them. A world of color. Color that is ever changing from the three suns in the sky and their clockwork like cycles. A world of time. A six thousand year long history of eight different ages, each with it's own themes, challenges, and influences. A world of choice. The ability to alter your timeline and experience the impact that one individual can make on history.
