Dust
I saw them before I heard them, the glowing embers of the world that was. I saw them floating through the air, wafting gently downward onto our muddied flesh, the thunderous boom of the bombs shaking the ground beneath us as they broke the earth’s skin. A crack sounded in the distance, renting the night sky with its resounding finality.

Aberinth's Marvels
Some say they sprang up overnight, the cities in the sky and sea. What wonders now blanket this world were so unusually built that even the most learned architects of the Old Era couldn’t say how they came to pass. Yet, here they stand in all their glory, worlds atop the clouds, their towers gilt and shining in the sun, the gentle hum of unseen motors whirring beneath their mighty turrets. Their magnificence is only matched by alien worlds hidden far beneath the waves, their great glass domes and crystalline lights luring giant squid and mammoth whales into view. It is said that if one stands at the edge of such a place, the creatures come so close, you could almost speak to them.
