History:
Millenia ago, five beings called the Seed, appeared on the face of the Realm (this period is known to historians as the Era of Manifest) amongst them, one named Lyric. While exploring this new environment, something strong and strange—something in the air, made them mysteriously ill. The only one able to move, Lyric journeyed to find a cure. He stumbled across a cavern in the earth; inside this was a giant crystal rock. As he drew nearer, he became more ill, but when he touched the rock, he was immediately cured and felt strangely energetic. The rock seemed to have waves of energy flowing from it, so he named it the “Wave Core”. Eventually, the Seed became well again, now accustomed to the flow of energy.
Eventually, a citadel was built over the Wave Core, and the five grew into a vast population. Lyric named the rock “Calypso”, and guarded its secret. He gradually learned how to harvest energy from the Wave Core, developing abilities and inventing items which used this energy as fuel; through the years, he slowly ceased aging due to his close exposure and being the first to touch the Core.
However, due to the consequences of his meddling, an evil was awakened from the Core—a dark force, which seemed to have a mind of its own. It grew out of control; while trying to stop the plague, Lyric was brutally attacked with a blast that knocked him unconscious. When he awoke, the figure of a man stood before him (due to being in direct contact with Lyric, the evil from the Wave Core gained human form). A devastating duel occurs between them—Lyric ultimately wins, and the dark force is contained.
The Calypso Citadel falls in this duel. Lyric vanishes.
Eventually, the people of the Realm discover and learn how manipulate the energy of the Wave Core. Insurrections and terror rises due to this discovery. A firm ruling power is set over the people, and the use of the energy of the Core is used only for the welfare of the city (like electricity); fighting with this power is outlawed.
Modern Day:
A reactor has been built over the Wave Core—now called the Reactor Calypso. A city, named New Ithaca, thrives around it, different races living in its shadow. All seems well…
But for the past few days, the reactor—the source of energy for the city—has had constant surges.
