As it has been for generations, the Nharkim remain by far the most advanced race,357Please respect copyright.PENANAxPbXDcaA7a
by quite the margin as anyone can tell just by looking at their city from far away - their357Please respect copyright.PENANA116H3pLGwf
greatness is known to all.357Please respect copyright.PENANAVICBvQL1Ho
No other civilisation at this time can even come close to competing with them, and357Please respect copyright.PENANAGiyHS1lMPZ
so his majesty Hervies the current Human king must push even more. He is ruthless357Please respect copyright.PENANApJqbLxjMPw
and carries much fear in his chest, more than any other ruler before him, and if his357Please respect copyright.PENANAxOJjZQX4wB
heart is tight, the borders of his scruples extend far and wide.357Please respect copyright.PENANAr43gynB6QF
There is nothing that the almighty Hervies will not do for his ambitions.357Please respect copyright.PENANANwqlHMkSo4
The feelings of admiration and awe, of respect and fear towards anything Centra,357Please respect copyright.PENANAcUhlSXg1Fg
have long been replaced by folly and greed, by petty and misguided ambitions.357Please respect copyright.PENANAJWZ7VMrbGB
Perhaps nothing shows this better than the Human king’s efforts in his perpetual quest357Please respect copyright.PENANAsPZNjPXXD8
for his race to take the front seat. He and all under him have been doing whatever is357Please respect copyright.PENANA0gSLicHS3u
deemed necessary to not fall behind for generations. Hervies is just the next in line of357Please respect copyright.PENANAg7lWEoY9d9
a long succession of rulers living in constant fear of what the Nharkim could do at any357Please respect copyright.PENANAQRxNOH0WKO
time. But something makes him different however, and no other king that has come357Please respect copyright.PENANAeYWAv5jAx5
before him has gone as far as he is willing to go. No other Human ruler before him has357Please respect copyright.PENANAzDBiB99ZPT
had so much pressure felt upon his crown either.357Please respect copyright.PENANAShMlMGaq12
The Nharkim technology seems to grow almost exponentially, improving almost357Please respect copyright.PENANAVlUX6NIIU7
by the day and soon who... even now, can guess what they could be scheming?357Please respect copyright.PENANAS0kWRDK8xF
The necessary measures must thus be taken even further than that, such as the constant357Please respect copyright.PENANAWIfzjXVr9m
deployment of all sorts of scavenger teams to all the known corners of the world in357Please respect copyright.PENANAz0WNTbp0tW
desperate attempts to try and uncover more Centra property. All in the hopes of finally357Please respect copyright.PENANAPHAOY6r34G
unveiling some of their biggest secrets, something that could give the Humans the357Please respect copyright.PENANAPtkcjafdLi
necessary advantage to at last take their place as the most powerful in all the lands.357Please respect copyright.PENANAWTin9Wll2Z
Hervies holds nothing back when it comes to achieving this; he is well known even by357Please respect copyright.PENANAazasal0pcy
those outside his race, as a ruler with complete disregard towards anyone’s welfare and357Please respect copyright.PENANAvRNoEenNU4
how much it might all cost. Time and again he has proven that he is more than willing357Please respect copyright.PENANA8Sf3yLTVmN
to pour any amount of funds, and he has no restraints in raising taxes either to do so.357Please respect copyright.PENANAEslftHhEWB
He is a dangerous man.357Please respect copyright.PENANAaNh3SGAFzY
Not just to others but also to himself. He is perhaps the most dangerous human357Please respect copyright.PENANADmLVJzTlEe
to walk this world in quite some time. Desperation drives him and the fear he feels357Please respect copyright.PENANAsTnYRM2MJv
himself, he has no qualms in casting upon others. With each passing day, he tightens357Please respect copyright.PENANAW6QIAbrNfn
the noose around his own people’s neck; he demands skin and teeth from all the357Please respect copyright.PENANA2RxobUkKZf
hard-working folk and quite the percentage of his kingdom are on the verge of357Please respect copyright.PENANAaTiisxB9CI
starvation.357Please respect copyright.PENANAA5YdioDzDg
Then he comes and offers insurmountable amounts of currency to anyone willing357Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1YhuUaCGD
to do his bidding and in doing so, obviously, Hervies has no problem finding the357Please respect copyright.PENANAeSl1s63DSn
required man labour for the more outrageous efforts the Human kingdom is putting357Please respect copyright.PENANAEItSNFEcdm
up these last years. For many years these desperate searches have been going on, for357Please respect copyright.PENANASqhO6mQrki
the slightest glimpse at any Centra secret and the Celitian Continent has been entirely357Please respect copyright.PENANAmLfqaeAIgX
dug up three times over or so, it seems. They have searched any and all ruins, they357Please respect copyright.PENANAzFCG2ygh6B
have excavated the soil to the point of not even one more hole can be dug up. In their357Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ze5gFGgaE
efforts, they exhausted all the land around them and so the time came to look further.357Please respect copyright.PENANAQkX8QFZl5q
The time to spread and send search teams outside the known charts, to venture forth357Please respect copyright.PENANAsOAArDbPiL
into the unknown dark corners of the world that most are afraid to even mention357Please respect copyright.PENANA1ARMvs1ZaF
let alone set foot in. This is how the “Cloudsiras” came to be, Human expeditions357Please respect copyright.PENANAU4PyTQozX3
hell-bent on finding and bringing back what their king values most. No other race is357Please respect copyright.PENANAxMIFSoGRtz
known to do this, either because they don’t have the means to cross entire landmasses357Please respect copyright.PENANAl2g6vGUCYE
or because they don’t feel that desperate. Humans, however, are second only to the357Please respect copyright.PENANAqxbq71JYdc
Nharkim so they can go anywhere. Their numerous airships can sometimes cover357Please respect copyright.PENANAfn0XZt8mKY
entire clouds and as for motivation, well, a man must eat, and their king offers plenty...357Please respect copyright.PENANAJQScOKmyGz
There is still much-uncharted territory across this bleak world, still many landmasses357Please respect copyright.PENANAaBj8dcxweQ
and dark continents waiting to be explored.357Please respect copyright.PENANAlrB3b6VqzM
So these Human Cloudsiras are always stretching their limits, increasing the size357Please respect copyright.PENANAmvGUwD92B5
of the known map, they are constantly pushing how far can they go; how much357Please respect copyright.PENANA2L8FGHN3Lh
distance can they cover and how deep can they reach, for as Human technology keeps357Please respect copyright.PENANAWdLjG8lySR
advancing so do their means of exploring.357Please respect copyright.PENANAOFUVrG5vK8
