The planet of Ember, renowned for its abundant Aether, has long been a hub of interdimensional activity due to its Aether Gates. These mysterious portals can link Ember to other worlds, dimensions, and time periods, and have fascinated and intimidated its inhabitants for centuries. These gates can appear without warning, some lasting only moments while others persist indefinitely. The Kitsumi Aetherologists' Guild has developed innovative aethertech to study the gates, uncovering valuable insights into the world’s beyond.
Recently, a permanent Aether Gate has materialized, connecting Ember to a realm unlike any previously encountered. Initial scans revealed a world teeming with draconic life-forms, from majestic, intelligent dragons to lesser, more primal creatures. Within days of the gate opening, the weather in the local region began to deteriorate rapidly. Devastating thunderstorms, uncontrolled fires, and even tsunamis have ravaged the landscape, threatening the very fabric of Ember’s society.
Eyewitness reports describe scaled beasts, unlike any native to Ember, roaming the affected areas. Tsukimi sages have been reporting that the dragons have returned, large, magic wielding reptiles that occur frequently within their cultural history and oral traditions. These invasive creatures range from docile to aggressive, leaving destruction and chaos in their wake. The people of Ember demand action, and MAGE (the Ministry of Aether Gate Exploration) has issued an emergency call to arms. Brave adventurers are needed to form investigative teams, delving into the mysterious world beyond the Aether Gate. Their mission: to establish first contact with any intelligent life, uncover the source of the chaos, and put an end to the destruction plaguing Ember.
Will you answer the call, brave Ember? Will you dare to venture into the unknown, forging a new path for your world and its inhabitants? The fate of Ember hangs in the balance, as the Aether Gate's secrets await your discovery.
