+ | ===== A village vanishes ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | On 2/13/10071, a minor village roughly halfway between Enth and the Blackwood Ruins seemingly vanished. Reveal the Past shows the civilians disappearing one a time, before a force that suspiciously seemed like invisible giants appeared to rip the structures of the village out of the ground and stuff it into a portal bag. Not long before, someone had broken into the royal castle and stolen the physical throne, leaving only the mysterious message "Deus was here". Some weeks later, the throne was returned, but the mystery would be cause for gossip | ||
