    • Espeidia Prologue


      The following is the prologue for my upcoming plugin Espeidia:

      **The stronger they were, the weaker they grew.
      The more they saw, the less they knew.
      The greater their wealth, the more they sought.
      The less they argued, the more they fought.

      With age came their rise.
      So will age bring their fall.
      With a new age will come.
      The end of them all.

      For the weak became strong
      And the strong became blind
      And from sadness of heart
      Came anger of mind

      So soon will they come
      And a nation divide
      And when balance is gone
      You must then choose a side.

      “If you are standing atop the mightiest of mountains, and it begins to crumble, you can still choose which way you fall.” - Zorian Proverb**

      Don't worry if it dosn't make too much sense. All will be explained in the plugin ;). Comments?

    • That seems as thought it is just a very general, non-specific poem about the downfall of someone/something. Hard to comment on, but the poem itslef is pretty good.

      Good. That's about the effect I was aiming for. The poem sets the stage for a big collapse, but dosn't tell you what exactly is collapsing (you will probablly be able to guess from the plug though, after playing a few missions). More on that later... 😉

    • Cool idea. Makes me wonder why no one has done that style of prologue yet (or at least I haven't seen any examples of it)...

      Espeidia is sounding better and better. 🙂
