Welcome to an Age of Heroes
In Taara's wake the earth crumbled. Gods fell, others rose, and the race of mankind looked forward and saw the destruction of nations. For five years, necrotech seared the world's landscape and forces unknown decimated the once-insurmountable Walls of Charn. Nations turned against one another with the vanishing of monarchs--brother to brother and kin to kin. During the struggles, the nation of Dragonier attempted to keep the peace before it, too, fell. Other nations threatened to follow.
Now returned from the Mists, Alexandria finds itself thrown into a world in turmoil. In this world, the Pantheon of Light stride forward in anger, the Twilight fall into debate, and the forces of Darkness are locked in a war between Maugrim and Taara. High arcana soars over the landscape with the renewed activity of the Old Races, while guilds and organizations struggle to find their footing with the fall of Rune. The sildanyar and khazad have moved forward into the world once again, driven by the perceived neglect of the world by humankind.
The world had waited for the return of Alexandria and the return of the Myrrish and Bludgun kings for five years--only to find Alexandria suddenly returned unchanged, and unknowing, from the Land of Mists. To Alexandria, the War of Sendor is just days past. To the world--

Rumors circulate, too, of a creature known only as the Azure Queen...or more commonly and frequent, Blue Bitch, in the parlance on the streets and one they say is depraved beyond all reason. The pirates continue, of course, but they're secondary in minds as of late, and who can blame them?
Worse, the City's called for a public execution of someone tied to these recent horrors. While supporters say it's to calm down the hysteria before it starts, others take a more jaundiced eye towards the proceedings, recalling that, perhaps, public executions in Alexandria have never, EVER gone well.
