The Beginning...

When The Cataclysm stilled the Earth and torn asunder the moon it disturbed the eternal rest of The Great Worm, who then began to stir deep within the bowels of the planet. The Great Worm spoke to our ancestors of the impending apocalypse and bestowed upon them many gifts, among them the knowledge and strength of mind and body required to survive.The Great Worm told our ancestors that until The Consumption they would be tested and only those that achieved true self ascension would benefit. It was deemed that we would take our gifts and prove ourselves stronger than the end-times brought upon us by lesser beings; Our gifts would not be squandered.
