Sparks – The Fire of Coriolis

Like so many things, our world, our time, our era was shaped by a spark. The Fire of Coriolis (Jena Year 2435) engulfed entire regions. Miners and explorers searching for the Dragon and wealth, led by the Fyros government, ignored the warnings of the Karavan sentinels and delved towards the core of the planet unleashing an inferno upon the planet. The sap fueled fire blazed for weeks but it was not the flames that ended an age, it was the fallout.

Long, long ago another spark gave birth to our sun and released our ancestors from the clutches of the Dragon. With a new sun, a new planet arose. Rock and salt became leaf and bark. The great greening affected everything. The seed became a part of all Homins and all Homins became a part of Atys. The seed is the tie that binds us, the source of our magic, the key to our respawning.

During the struggle between light and darkness that created Atys, the Dragon was beaten but not defeated. Its coil utterly disrupted sent forth microscopic particles to cover the now living and growing planet. In the same action that birthed the seed, the corruption that is the Draconic Ashe took form.

The Great Tree absorbs the ashe, filters it from the air and slowly transfers the corruption towards its rhizome, the Core. The great fire disrupted this process unleashing eons of Ashe. A new Era was born from a spark. The Dragon, in essence, had been freed.
