Fera, Fręzeid, Britath
The Year 571 of the Common Calendar
The trading outpost of Britath was unusually empty when Mendev and Elyx arrived. Shaking their heads in dismay, the pair sat and awaited any who would answer their call. The outpost was a typical Feran assortment of tents, storehouses and ornate decoration all relying on the assistance of the large windmills to run the various pulleys, conveyor belts and miscellaneous clockwork devices. Britath was once one of the few consistently busy trading outposts in Fera. Tents belonging to hundreds of Ferans would surround the place. Airships would anchor near the Airship Assembly Area to unload their goods the old-fashioned way due to the Tower often being full. Of a night, Feran merchants would be trying to catch the attention of passers by with impressive displays of their wares. Today, however the place was a ghost town. Life was certainly different before the strange cracks began to emanate from Griuhna Sjova in Neo Scandza.
When aspiring adventurers arrived they discovered the reason for Britath's desertion; a large chasm split the place unevenly in two. Mendev and Elyx could be found sitting against an Aizium pole which spiraled up to help support the roof of the large open building. The two stood out not only for their unusual appearance but the fact the Masked Ones were not trying to fade into the background as they were known to do. When Mendev and Elyx stood to greet new arrivals, their great height was immediately apparent as they both stood roughly the height of two humans while seeming far more delicately built. They wore matching black coats which almost reached the top of their hoof-like feet. Well fitting long black skirts with ornate strips of bright green cloth did not quite reach the ground. Their brightly coloured hair stood out against the black cloth masks they wore over their lower faces. The two quietly greeted the new arrivals before offering a seat and water while they wait for any others.

Feel free to bring any character, though any obvious slavers, murderers, poachers, etc. will likely have a very difficult time even during the chaos caused by the disaster. One could also choose to RP as a Feran, if one so desired. Most importantly, have fun!
The premise is that the Ferans have tried and failed to glean any information on the cracks of Fera. Though it may already be too late, the Masked Ones Mendev and Elyx decided not attempt to join their mysteriously disappearing Masked One kin just yet, instead sending a desperate call to any who may be able to help. If necessary, they would break Feran Law to save their land and as such even the despised Maurians were sent word of this alongside ways to enter Fera and arrive at Britath unharmed.))
