| The time of the Dark One has passed, ended by the heroism of Raducan, now renowned as both damnor and savior of this new age. However, there is a new threat looming over Sylfe. The Dark One left his taint on the lifestream, the magical force that connects all living things and blankets the entirety of Sylfe.
The lattice has fallen into the hands of the deranged sorceror Merun Al'Caar, who believes he is a God. Using this absolute power over the inhabitants of Sylfe, he has solidified humanity's dominance over the races of the Old Age. Under the misguidance of his "Triune Church," mankind and a few converts from elder races are converting the lands into what they see as "paradise" while paving the way for Merun's transcension of his human body.
In the sky, the Grim Moon looms over the lands, a sign of the Convergence, a sign of the coming end of times. Just what role the denizens of Sylfe will play in this coming end is yet unclear. In the ravaged world of Ehvin, an ancient malevolence is once again stirring. The Maelstrom, an unnatural storm born from warring energies left behind by Ehvin's cataclysmic past is beginning to make itself manifest again. In the shadow of Ehvin's rifts, the Epimandu, vile creatures with even viler intentions are beginning to rouse from their sleep.
The Reven are growing restless and they are putting out the call for even more Spark bearers, creatures born with a natural affinity for magic. The Reven are beings of great power, but this power came at a price, they could not leave the rifts unless they found their bonded partners who can only be individuals carrying sparks. These Reven are the polar opposite of the Epimandu, they are as much a cause for the Maelstrom as they are a solution for it.
The Grim Moon also casts its shadow over Ehvin and the Convergence is doing nothing to aid in the quelling of the unnatural tempest. The tides are changing and chaos is on the horizon. Ëthan was once a land of divine beauty, where the cycle of nature was gracefully long, and each season could take more than two decades. Ruled by the Ayalla, special beings chosen among the mortals, the harmony of this seasons lasted through millenia, and could run forever... if it wasn't the sin of selfishness. The fear of death, the eminence of oblivion, can be too much, even for the divine entities. This is the dark point, when even the best intentions, dreams and feelings, can be corrupted. Even the power of love... After centuries under the power of an endless Winter, mortals are reuniting to fight back the tyranny; a strugle between eternity and mortality. Could they cultivate generosity enough to fight the egotism, or are they just trying to fulfill their own desire? Who is the new avatar of order...or chaos? This is a roleplay by Kyrion.

| Have any of you heard of it? . It's one of those series that I've been reading ever since I learned how to read. Heck, I'm sixteen now and the last book has yet to come out! It's the source of my inspiration in fantasy, just saying. | |

| I don't know if the series has the same name here... I can't recall anything like that. But it must be a really long work O.o And very important, if it influeced you so deeply through your life. ^_^ And, just saying, I didn't know you are so young, and I say that in a good way. You're very mature and intelligent; you have a good future with these skills!
I can't avoid the cliché... I'm influenced by Tolkien, and Marion Zimmer Bradly and her work with Avalon. But also Dungeons and Dragons, Neil Gaiman (specially Sandman), Philip Pullman, Clive Barker... and that only mentioning fantasy. I could also include the Narnia books because I like them, but not as an influence...
Oh my, I read too much. I would make an endless list of books. That's probably why my list of girlfriends ends at the number 2. If you want, tell more about the series, Malkuthe ^_^ | |

| It's a 14 book + 1 prequel series. Written by robert jordan, the last three books were made by brandon sanderson, building upon the notes left by the deceased original author. He was part of a trio of great fantasy writers who were friends, CS lewis and JRR tolkien, not sure about the last one though. Well, I could summarize it, but it's far too complicated to do any justice by summarization. I am young. HAHA. . and I wish I could stay that way. How about you? :3. what's your age? I would be widely read. BUT monetarily, not really possible. We have a small library at home, and I've read every single book in there at least once. . | |

| I didn't know about Jordan being friend with Lewis and Tolkien; I only knew about the last ones. They were friends and rivals, and influenced each other during most of their careers, even if they tried to avoid the subject many times. Lewis was very christian in life and career, and that can be seen in his books, something I liked to discover each time I read them (I won't make this a religion discussion^_^) Tolkien created a world too wonderful and vast to comment in a few words I like Silmarillion the most. I always had a dream of having a little library... my family had many, many books that were just donated or even robbed while we were moving. I started my own attempt in creating my little library a few years ago, but the money is my current problem, too. I wish I could stay young... I'm 20, and that makes me the oldest around here. But people usually think I'm 25 -_- | |

| Haha. You know, I'd like to see yours and derek's faces. HAHA. :3. I can't keep assigning you guys to nameless silhouettes whenever I read something you post. XD Seriously, when I read something I tend to imagine a person saying it. XD. Ohh.. You're still young you know. :3. A lot of years to build upon. . Yeah, I hope Sylfe becomes one such world. HAHA. MY dream you know, build something people would enjoy. (Not necessarily getting published) | |

| Yes, we share this dream ^_^ that's probably why I'm changing my graduation from Psychology to Literature. I dream on making a series of my own. Yes, wild dreams
Well, I'd like to see your faces too! But now, lets exercise the imagination: as you are familiar with fantasy, you can choose Someone that looks 75% elf and 25% ork. or Someone that looks 50% vampire and 50% werewolf. (Keep Twilight away of this)
Now you can try to imagine me XD (Yes, I had long hair like an elf, but not anymore) | |
