Consciousness, a roaring wave of sound followed by the
panicked realization of a need to breathe and the inability to do so. Swirling water, violently tossing you
while random fears run through your mind, such as wondering if the violent
waves could break limbs, then a momentous thrust hurtling you into the air,
light bombarding you. Violently heaving, spitting up water while desperately
trying to take in air, an angry wave deposited you on the island, your last
image of the others people around you in similar straights on the beach.
Another crashing wave followed by immediate darkness when some of the debris in
the water hits you knocking you into unconsciousness.
Each of you have similar jumbled memories of your past after
awakening on a debris strewn beach unlike any you have known. Instead of sand the beach was made up of a
layered substance similar to clay that was very hot to the touch. All of you suffered burns from your time
unconscious on the burning beach.
Besides finding each other several other items were scattered about the
beach which you recovered. Soon after
your arrival you began to explore the island that you would
survive upon for several months before being rescued.
Kyras eventually
proclaimed that this island had once been part of either a larger island or
island chain and that the unique beach was due to volcanic activity. Given the heat of the beach, Kyras was
certain that there was active volcanic activity nearby also warning everyone of the
dangerous exposure to deep earth gases you were all experiencing. It was Kyras’ theory that the gasses were
responsible for your lost memories.
The three mile long island was mostly barren save for the circular stone hill that would lightly glow at night along with the pond at its center. In fact
it was that very glow that lead to your rescue when the Sky Captain Zilinias
Marks hovered his Skyship The Overwrought Companion over the glowing island to
investigate. The Captain and his wife
Teneel Marks took you aboard The Overwrought Companion beginning your two month
journey to the Evening Isles.
