Rules and Joining
-Plot-
The island of Frozen Sanctity was once home to humans. As soon as the people begin to called the island home and the spring finally came, a great black phantom hung on the horizon and the inhabitant’s four-legged companions started behaving peculiarly. To stay alive, the packs of wolves and dogs combined, and the forest creatures also form groups, trying their hardest to survive. The horses refused to be alone at night, and some of the equines where even inspired to bolt straight into the sea by some unknown entity. Dogs became feral and turned on their masters, veraciously devouring the livestock. Many of the people showed signs of sickness, the initial signals of an invisible plague that struck randomly. One human stepped forward with a prophecy, one chilling and barbaric. It becomes ironic that no one listened to the oracle, which fervently insists that they must leave, or sacrifice one of their own to save them all.
Conditions continue to deteriorate and eventually one of the townsfolk fell dead in the street; it was only the beginning of a long chain of deaths that are sure to ensue. Most were buried in the aging cemetery, but two were cast into the sea and the last, the oracle, was taken by the earth soon after. The cloud dissipated with her final passing, but the oracle’s bones never dulled, bleached white and left to lie upon the cliffs where she died.
The disserted island of Frozen Sanctity was left uninhabited by those humans and instead is home to an array of different creature, stretching from native fauna to beasts who’ve traveled from all corners of the world. As a strange dark cloud appears in the distance, the new residence can feel a change. They pray that the ancient folk tale known throughout the island will not have to be repeated. Many believe that the past only repeats itself, and believe the oracle will come again, and save them. Others think that a story is just that, and a past cannot haunt. What is left is an island of torn beasts, living with a fear of the future, and the past. Spirit, and faith engulf some, while others form groups, a pack and a clan to survive. The myth burns with in each beast that lives, or stumbles upon the island of Frozen Sanctity.
