After an arduous trek through a dense forest, you finally emerge into a clearing and are greeted by a breathtaking vista. From a cliff overlooking the otherworldly Aetherlight Plains, barely visible to you on the horizon is your destination: the thriving settlement of Concordia. It dawns on you; you
and your caravan have just arrived at the heart of Valanyr, the new frontier that is as mysterious as it is ravishing.
According to the seasoned mages guiding your caravan, this land was once decimated by an unknown cataclysm centuries ago. This unprecedented devastation is believed to have altered the land’s innate Elan, rendering it fertile but mercurial, subverting the laws of magic itself. Where the
elements of nature are normally stable and separate, here they are in constant flux. You’ve seen fire inexplicably morph into lightning, and water harden into earth. This volatility means that the old ways of spellcasting are useless, but also that—for the first time in centuries—there are new and unknown spells to be discovered.
Standing by your side and taking in the view are other members of your caravan; not friends, but fellow mages who are also seeking new fortunes. You realize you haven't had the opportunity to speak to them and learn about their past. But whatever their tales may be, you are sure they’re here for the same reason as you; to see what possibilities this strange new land may yield. And, perhaps, in their minds, they’re thinking the same thing you are...
That if even the laws of magic can remake themselves here,
why can’t you do the same?
