[@Rekaigan][@Mike73][@Aristo][@Xenocyanide] all in. 

Our next steps will be to flesh out characters. By characters, I mean the cultures they come from, the nations, and some sense of the Vukash, and we've already started that conversation.

We have also already very much determined a sword and sandals sort of feel, and I want to carry on with that sense. The grittier the better seems to be the consensus. 

Another item we have to work out is what happened on the trek to the World Tree. Also, [@Mike73] gave me a better MacGuffin, which was a total blessing, so I'll rewrite 'orb' to 'fossilized seed.' Good on ya.

Also, this is the stage where, if someone drops out, we'll have to reopen recruitment. At that point, it will be invite only, refer in people you know are good collaborators.
