Voice : Just days ago it all began. A few Dwarves\' were mining for ores when they stumbled across a strange object. The youngest of the crew, a Klyros, Kaulam, picked up the book and flipped through its pages. The snippets below are exactly from the journal, and have not been altered at all. What you are about to see, and hear, may change your life in Yliakum.

The Journal of Sondor Arthrisa.
Ah. Finally, a journal. I have had my eye on you since the day the merchant came to town two weeks ago. And finally I saved up enough to buy you.
It is odd. Up until today, my life has been pretty normal, but today that all changed. I suppose this is a perfect oppurtunity to use this journal.
Renalia, Sintharna, and Belendor and I were just wondering outside the village, trying to find a wonderful adventure to get into, when suddenly a bright light emitted from a hill in the distance. Being the wonderous travellers we are, we rushed to the direction in which the light emitted.
We arrived over the hill to see a village burning. The inhabitants of the village were running in every which direction, screaming and crying. Suddenly another light emitted in the distance. In just a few seconds we seen people screaming and running away from the direction in which the light had appeared.
I could not believe my eyes. The light continued emitting in all the nearby villages, and my village was in the direction the light was heading. I looked at my friends. What was happening? What was this light? I did not know, but I figured I had to warn my people.
Renalia, Sintharna, Belendor, and I, ran off towards our village, as fast as we could. I don\'t recall myself ever running as fast as I did then, but I suppose it is because there was much reason behind it. I passed the Hills of Rawlia and dashed through the fields towards my village.
We ran through the fields and approach the Hills of Varnus, the hills which seperated our village from the others. We ran as fast as we could, but when we arrived at the top, I could not believe what I saw...

Kaulam : Wow...what was destroying those villages?!
Miner One : Stop reading that thing ye big Lemur, and get back to work!
Kaulam : ...I should have never shared with him my disgust wit Lemur\'s...
Miner Two : Aye! It\'s all just a story some bored kid wrote I tell ye! Wouldn\'t we have heard of these villages and this lights?!
Kaulam : I suppose your right...
Miner One : Aye! Now get ye self back to work!
*The miner throws Kaulam a pick. Kaulam places the journal in his backpack and begins mining away at the ores of the mines.*
OOC : Whew, my first RP post on Planeshift...I am quite sorry if it is not anything like you guys are used to. Please leave OOC advice on how you like it so far, any typos or anything, and please, if its negative feedback, make it constructive. Also, I ask that no one RPs anything here, unless they too are sent to the mines and question the journal. I ask this only because I have the story planned out and do not what too many disruptions. One again, please leave feedback!
