x. Echoes…

The first of many civilizations to collapse was the Kingdom of Northane, once an item was brought to the wealthy town of Dragös by a man named Archer Revenge on a ship of the same name. The town, followed by the country, collapsed under the influence of the item, but not before it was placed in the depths of where it was supposedly made: in the Temple of Faces. Other civilizations would collapse under its influence as well, but Northane was the first. The process continues to repeat to this day, for all great civilizations shall fall someday, as Northane fell in the past, and Sharhodeon is falling today. And such was the prophecy of the Uaa, the first people to ever collaborate and create a tribe on the face of the Earth. After the prophecy was made, the Uaa suffered a bloody and gruesome fate after crafting what is nowadays known as the Bell of Amma. The Bell of Amma was a gift to the people from far away who said they were building a temple for the sun, the presence that warmed their daily lives. The Uaa knew the dangers of this kind of worship, since they knew that it lead to a degree of pride. Despite this, the Uaa collaborated with the people from far away, and gave them a bell to grace the tower of their new temple. Even though the Uaa constantly looked at the flaws of the other people, they never saw the flaws in themselves. When the harvesting beast came to their villages, they relied on the god they created as well as the idea that they could not fall under his influence. And still, they did. They were no match for the Unknown Beast. And so, they were never heard from ever again.
