A Song for the Goats: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:15, 11 October 2008

The Scavenger Lands are the area of Creation most ripe for drastic change. Given that within its borders lie Nexus, the Guild's home city; Lookshy, the Shogunate remnant Dragon-Blooded kingdom and strongest military power in the Threshold; Great Forks, a city where spirits and elementals walk freely among men; Thorns, a city ruled by the Deathlord The Mask Winters; and the highest retained concentration of reincarnated Solars, it seems inevitable that cataclysm and revolution will become anything but commonplace in this perilous region.

More than any individual, A Song for the Goats is the tale of the Scavenger Lands itself, and how certain fated Exalts come to bring about the changes it undergoes as the Second Age progresses.

It begins on the first day of R.Y. 768, in keeping with Exalted canon.

Calendar

Note From Dan (temporarily here)

I moved around and renamed a lot of stuff. The events we played out so far weren't even really the main plot of Heavy Lies the Crown, so I was hesitant to call that all of part I. As such, I've created a small prelude chapter out of that material, and titled it "The Risen Shadow". The material previously on the Heavy Lies the Crown page can be found there, and the Summary page material is now on the discussion page of the same story. I converted any references to 'Part II' into references just to 'Heavy Lies the Crown', which will begin after Tony's story. If anyone has objections or wants things back the other way, feel free to switch it back, I'm just trying to order things such that I can have somewhat of a clean slate with Heavy Lies the Crown.
