Broken Cycle - Background and Setting

It is said that Creation turns in a cycle, an endless repetition of the Divine rising and falling, an ebb and flow of purity and corruption, of madness and rationality, of creation and war.

Just as it has been, just as it will always be.

It is said that in some of these cycles, Creation teeters or falls entirely, consumed in Apocalypse or Blight, and a spark in the void simply ends

Just as it has been, just as it will always be.

It is said that once a spark ends, well, that is it. All that was within that spark ends with it.

Just as it has been, just as it will always be.

* * *

But sometimes those saying such things are wrong.

Sometimes, an ember remains.

Sometimes, the end ... isn't

Sometimes, the Apocalypse is simply the next beginning

* * *

You are the Awakened, the next cycle of the Divine. Behind stretches a procession of those rising and falling, a legacy extending aeons. Ahead, the path is unknown: the Tree is shattered, but Nine Spheres have been reborn and you - their Divines - with them

The Broken Cycle - Background and Setting

You will begin your journey having awoken alongside your people, your Chosen. Your Realm is fresh and new and your people, bold and ready to take on their new home, will look to you for guidance. If not for the Monsters it would be an idyllic beginning. Instead, you are faced with opposition, Monsters born of stolen power and Chaos seek to unmake your newly birthed world.

Solidify your claim to the Realm, push back the encroaching influence of your enemy.

This conflict will be different for each Divine
