Yep, hopefully this is just a snag, without communication, you never know though.

Beyond the Boundaries

2-3 drop outs/flakes, so if anyone has a CS that could be ready in say a few hours with approval, I'd be happy to accept 1-2 more human characters for the first chapter of our adventure!

I've been PMing with Palindromatic for a while, I know they're around still and interested but Milieu hasn't been active (on site, I checked) for two weeks. I know their facebook contact so I might drop them a line tomorrow if nothing else.

History:

War never changes, and never does the reasons behind it. The world has crumbled beneath the many races settled in a deteriorating world. Previously fighting over petty political disputes, the races have now turned against each other in the fight for clean water and the most fertile of farmland. A decade of bad harvests, natural disasters and barren wars, has mined the world of its generosity and resources. Entire ancient forests have been chopped away to provide warmth during the merciless winter times, and with no one to care to replant the trees, the forests and its wood have become a depleting resource that is quickly coming to an end. With the forests shrinking, the wildlife follows the same steep curve down to nothing. Larger game animals like the deer, buck and moose has all been hunt to extinction. Something as easy as fishing, has become troublesome. Over-ambitious fishing men with their boats have ventured out on dangerous sea, and only to be devoured by it. Due to the thinking tree population, those ships that are lost are truly lost as no one builds ships anymore. Rebuilding is both costly a time consuming – two things the poor folk don’t have.

Entire civilizations has fallen from grace and they are all fighting against each other for survival. The Kings and Queens of the different races are stubborn; feeding themselves with their pride and dodging any treaty that might be good. Old blood keeps them from forming any alliances and their people suffer greatly for it. Sickness, hunger and thirst haunts ever race; every individual regardless of their position on the high ladder of society. Rich families burn their fancy furniture and valued literature through the winter, which only seem to grow harsher.

Fifteen years into the misery and into the worst winter since the start, the elves rise against their fair Queen. They urge her to put aside ancient history and make peace, as they are starving to death this year. Whatever army they once had, have not fallen by the hands of the enemy, but for starvation. Those who dare to urge the royalty, are branded with the title of traitor and are quickly silenced. However, many rebels and free thinkers quickly leave the elven capital Naevys, and regroup in an old fortress on top of mount Memnon. It is a defendable point being so high above the clouds, giving them a good advantage to anyone who would dare to attack them. They gather and plot, and soon they become the largest rebel base for the elven kind, but like the rest of the world – they fight the same dilemma of starvation, thirst and sickness.

Little do they know that the castle is sheltering more than just them. A lone soul of the world whispers to the rebels among them, but only one decides to listen. He is a battle-scarred sergeant from the war, and instead of sitting around starving, he follows the voice. After some time of listening, she reveals herself as a spirit of the world. She can be anything, but at the same time nothing and with her world falling apart, so is she. In her attempt to save what is left, she has reached out for help. She wants them to bring back the forests and the animals, but is unable to do it alone. After a bit of coaxing, she convinces the elven sergeant to carry out the first of many missions. He is set with the task to collect the entire skeleton of an animal she will bring back to life.

The sergeant leaves the rebel base and climbs down from the mountains with the spirit as his guide. It takes him several months of venturing before he has finally completed the first skeleton and as promised, the spirit carefully brings the beast back to life. They name her Nambra the Deer, as she is the first animal to be resurrected. Rios the Wolf follows, together with Alluin the Serpent, Sana the Eagle, Tyarel the Fox and many more. Unlike no one else has cared for, the spirit has him plant an entire forest in a ravaged valley for the animals to reside in. Surrounded by high mountains and only accessed through a treacherous trail, the vale is left alone by the outside world.

Not far from the Phoenix Vale, as the elf have begun to call it, the human’s capital of Acre lay. It is a place of great calamity and with the common people at their breaking point – they have launched an all-out assault on the royal palace. The King and Queen send away their son – the crown prince and their daughter – for protection and there are escorted in a rush to a safe house several hundred miles from the capital. While being escorted, the princess wanders off and after a long search, is assumed dead until proved captured or otherwise. The prince decides to rally whatever he can in order to find answers. Meanwhile, the princess comes across a small trio of cannibals who think they've found next meal but the elf stumbles across the scene and manages to aid in her escape. From there, the two decide to stick together.

Magic in the Space Between

When Remus showed up not long after her, he pulled open the door. "Thank you." She brightened up a bit as she stepped outside, into the night. She looked around and then over her shoulder to see Remus come out. The building quickly and smoothly hid itself so they didn't have to worry about anyone sneaking in or something. "I wasn't sure where to go." She admitted as they stood on the sidewalk. The streets weren't too crowded but there were still people out and about. While she thought taking a trip into the wizarding world might be fun, she wasn't sure if it was safe. Sure, the war was over, it had been for some time. But still, Hermione felt a little safer in the muggle world. "How about we walk around the area and see watch catches our eyes?" She suggested and began to walk. Looking around, she saw a few pubs and restaurants. Smelling the air, she glanced to Remus. "Something smells good, doesn't it?" She jogged to the corner and saw an American style diner. "Is this okay?" She asked him, stomach suddenly craving a burger and chips.

He stopped spinning around and looked to Rose when she voiced an idea of where to go for a cuppa. The Doctor smiled, "Excellent!" He said. "Let's go then." He waved at her. The Doctor followed Rose along, making mental notes of how things had changed. The time lord had been up and down, in and out of London throughout many decades. He knew its future and its past but the present was always changing because he was. And of course because time was changing in its wibbly wobbly sort of way, as his past self might say. "So how did you and I first meet?" He couldn't help but let his curiosity get the better of him. Rose seemed comfortable with him so it led him to believe that they had traveled together for a while in the other dimension. How interesting. When they found the place Rose spoke of, he patted his tweed jacket. "You might have to pay. Sorry." He smiled a little.
