As it has been for generations, the Nharkim remain by far the most advanced race,363Please respect copyright.PENANAVkKsXYuCB5
by quite the margin as anyone can tell just by looking at their city from far away - their363Please respect copyright.PENANAEB6cDcYO6u
greatness is known to all.363Please respect copyright.PENANABQh6DPUOd7
No other civilisation at this time can even come close to competing with them, and363Please respect copyright.PENANAx8NZnySnFe
so his majesty Hervies the current Human king must push even more. He is ruthless363Please respect copyright.PENANAtSVxaPqMTv
and carries much fear in his chest, more than any other ruler before him, and if his363Please respect copyright.PENANAZf6MB4qoez
heart is tight, the borders of his scruples extend far and wide.363Please respect copyright.PENANAjbvTCQo7iE
There is nothing that the almighty Hervies will not do for his ambitions.363Please respect copyright.PENANAOeInu91OAI
The feelings of admiration and awe, of respect and fear towards anything Centra,363Please respect copyright.PENANABTn4cf8NFB
have long been replaced by folly and greed, by petty and misguided ambitions.363Please respect copyright.PENANA4LJTb8uGSj
Perhaps nothing shows this better than the Human king’s efforts in his perpetual quest363Please respect copyright.PENANAGu1NbQ5xfZ
for his race to take the front seat. He and all under him have been doing whatever is363Please respect copyright.PENANAvhh9vwrCH6
deemed necessary to not fall behind for generations. Hervies is just the next in line of363Please respect copyright.PENANAPlU0A6pIPq
a long succession of rulers living in constant fear of what the Nharkim could do at any363Please respect copyright.PENANAUnp0BeOXCQ
time. But something makes him different however, and no other king that has come363Please respect copyright.PENANAjEWypMm5O6
before him has gone as far as he is willing to go. No other Human ruler before him has363Please respect copyright.PENANAIB7NNyhAm5
had so much pressure felt upon his crown either.363Please respect copyright.PENANAQxVW1ltyiQ
The Nharkim technology seems to grow almost exponentially, improving almost363Please respect copyright.PENANAb2QsXfQOrB
by the day and soon who... even now, can guess what they could be scheming?363Please respect copyright.PENANAuICGgA92CW
The necessary measures must thus be taken even further than that, such as the constant363Please respect copyright.PENANAlBlP0JIlin
deployment of all sorts of scavenger teams to all the known corners of the world in363Please respect copyright.PENANAoOEeggbmqp
desperate attempts to try and uncover more Centra property. All in the hopes of finally363Please respect copyright.PENANALZ4p1iKvsM
unveiling some of their biggest secrets, something that could give the Humans the363Please respect copyright.PENANA0QO0gE67WG
necessary advantage to at last take their place as the most powerful in all the lands.363Please respect copyright.PENANA6EXfyzWP2v
Hervies holds nothing back when it comes to achieving this; he is well known even by363Please respect copyright.PENANAsqTB3Sqvaq
those outside his race, as a ruler with complete disregard towards anyone’s welfare and363Please respect copyright.PENANAkIPR4ANtFY
how much it might all cost. Time and again he has proven that he is more than willing363Please respect copyright.PENANARpfCm8gGwO
to pour any amount of funds, and he has no restraints in raising taxes either to do so.363Please respect copyright.PENANAsbWlGSLZiD
He is a dangerous man.363Please respect copyright.PENANAhSh9ik4joa
Not just to others but also to himself. He is perhaps the most dangerous human363Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3uqkBazcM
to walk this world in quite some time. Desperation drives him and the fear he feels363Please respect copyright.PENANARkr1ykv5N1
himself, he has no qualms in casting upon others. With each passing day, he tightens363Please respect copyright.PENANAMOF5mZk3Qs
the noose around his own people’s neck; he demands skin and teeth from all the363Please respect copyright.PENANAE7xjjApOYl
hard-working folk and quite the percentage of his kingdom are on the verge of363Please respect copyright.PENANA84xe2e8eLu
starvation.363Please respect copyright.PENANASTYIAkaqGf
Then he comes and offers insurmountable amounts of currency to anyone willing363Please respect copyright.PENANAtuAcylYrDQ
to do his bidding and in doing so, obviously, Hervies has no problem finding the363Please respect copyright.PENANA0Vc9C5Uttj
required man labour for the more outrageous efforts the Human kingdom is putting363Please respect copyright.PENANAnAyW8PP98F
up these last years. For many years these desperate searches have been going on, for363Please respect copyright.PENANACj4IXGwrjg
the slightest glimpse at any Centra secret and the Celitian Continent has been entirely363Please respect copyright.PENANAVuNja00aiJ
dug up three times over or so, it seems. They have searched any and all ruins, they363Please respect copyright.PENANA8IeYMHDIlK
have excavated the soil to the point of not even one more hole can be dug up. In their363Please respect copyright.PENANAPIRrOBcQU7
efforts, they exhausted all the land around them and so the time came to look further.363Please respect copyright.PENANAd8e4POIWX2
The time to spread and send search teams outside the known charts, to venture forth363Please respect copyright.PENANApHXnCb3DDs
into the unknown dark corners of the world that most are afraid to even mention363Please respect copyright.PENANA9R7ABRGwTr
let alone set foot in. This is how the “Cloudsiras” came to be, Human expeditions363Please respect copyright.PENANAEYw1DztVmj
hell-bent on finding and bringing back what their king values most. No other race is363Please respect copyright.PENANAMr79NeDC3J
known to do this, either because they don’t have the means to cross entire landmasses363Please respect copyright.PENANAvaskBCcBgA
or because they don’t feel that desperate. Humans, however, are second only to the363Please respect copyright.PENANAjwevs6PbJ8
Nharkim so they can go anywhere. Their numerous airships can sometimes cover363Please respect copyright.PENANAOO3iidtBS8
entire clouds and as for motivation, well, a man must eat, and their king offers plenty...363Please respect copyright.PENANAus5Zu0NQTq
There is still much-uncharted territory across this bleak world, still many landmasses363Please respect copyright.PENANANax99evCes
and dark continents waiting to be explored.363Please respect copyright.PENANAUrxn5zBVsw
So these Human Cloudsiras are always stretching their limits, increasing the size363Please respect copyright.PENANAedPmEAWbhG
of the known map, they are constantly pushing how far can they go; how much363Please respect copyright.PENANA5mGKStOice
distance can they cover and how deep can they reach, for as Human technology keeps363Please respect copyright.PENANAvj6u1VUHc1
advancing so do their means of exploring.
