Introduction
Before Darkness fell, each of the four worlds lived in harmony with each other. They could travel safely through portals forgotten other than in legend now. Since then, each world has developed its own language and knows little of other worlds.
Now, after 1000 years of no light, it comes streaming down. The brightness let you see the colours surrounding you for the first time. It was no longer pitch black. It is time for the ancient legend that your parents told you to be completed. For you and your two friends to rebuild the lost cities and reunited the worlds.

There are four worlds with different narrators. They are spread across the four pages - 1 per narrator


Rules

No being 'clever' it's a game. Not real life.
Quote/ Bold and ping every time. Narrators, don't be merciful
Don't just abandon your team. The other players need you to rebuild the village
Narrators word is law.

*coughs* That probably only refers to Ivy *cough*
We all have to right to kick/ deny you
No favouritism.
Narrators control what you see/ do so no random dodging if you got hit

Taithlon
Here the air is dry and very warm as sands whip across the desert in winds. As the light poured down, the sky was a bright stinging blue. Boiling sand was beneath your legs. The desert reached out as far as the eye could see, few acacias dotted around it. You jumped back down into the cave system. You knew savannah and mesa were not far off and accessible by the clay tunnels that twirled around the world. Water could be heard trickling. One of the many small streams that were joined by the caves.

Religion
The Order of Ekarasha.
The world was once barren and dead, only sand and the bright light. It is said a creature of bright light and bright blue eyes, lighter than the skies floated down. She gave the world streams that gushed through the cave systems. She then built each animal out of sand and gave them a bit of light within them, called a Ekra. It gives each animal their life and soul and comes from herself. When she was finished, she disappeared. When a new animal is born, she comes back and visits their dreams, giving them their own Ekra.
After the Darkness struck, it was believed she was killed and had abandoned them all. No one knew what had happened and the religion slowly died with fear.

Lyra

Female || Mindigo || Wanderer

Personality
She is Kind and quiet, but enjoys company
Backstory
She fit well in the darkness only her shining blue eyes giving her away, But now in the light she stuck out like a sore thumb on the hot dessert sands, and though her thick fur would seem hot, it actually repels the heat trapping the cool air inside. However the new life of shining light does pose some problems as her vision outside in the light is less than 20/20, but her night vision is perfectly intact.
