requiem_for_the_lost_by_rexcaliburr-dap8ar0.jpg
Welcome home, children.

thanks for coming! this isn't your usual nuzlocke or pinkerlocke or anything of the sort. this is an original novel that stems from the lore of flight rising and one of its most popular minecraft servers, flightcraft! this story is the sequel to where we went. i do suggest you read where we went first.

synopsis
having built up civilisation again after the last shade attack, the dragons of scyria and their ruling deity, the Console, are ready to settle down and relax for once, but can't seem to ever catch a break. breaking free from its chains, the shade is back and adapting, waiting for the right moment to strike again.

now with the shade hardly detectable, tensions rise between friends, family, and the community as scyria is broken up in a self-induced civil war.

just a heads up!
this story alters some basic flight rising lore and explores my personal ideas - including what the shade is, what it does, these alternate lands, etc. i highly doubt any of these correspond to official lore so please don't beat me up for it or tell me 'hey, that's not what happened' because i'm really branching off on my own here.

this story is also flight rising based, but it focuses on a flight rising minecraft server called flightcraft. all characters are players on this server (which i do run and i do have permission to use their names). so you will see some minecraft-like aspects in this story, including materials and minerals that show up from time to time. however, imagine this story doesn't take place in a block world and takes place in a world very much like our own. so things are not made of blocks.


this thread is for feedback, so feel free to post! chapters will be posted on a separate thread where no one but i am allowed to post. thank you! please do let me know if you'd like to be on a pinglist for new chapters ^^
