The Waterworks || Year 1: The Battles Begin

|| YEAR 1 || SPRING ||

Our tale begins with two sets of Norns, growing up in separate parts of the same world. Their names are chosen by fate, something written into their very being that just seems to "feel" right; when they are born, it's all they know. 

The first pair to hatch is Snow and Dove, two Norns with dark blue fur that seems to blend well with the huge waterfalls that loom over their home, the Waterworks. The second pair is Life and Rain, who have gray fur that reflects the gloomy storm clouds overhead above the tree they'll live in, the Star Tree.

These Norns, the very first generation in what will surely be a long legacy, venture out into their world with nothing in mind but survival, prepared to fight for what they need to prosper - and perhaps, one day, fully repopulate the abandoned world that they were left behind in.

The Waterworks || Prologue

Albia was once a beautiful world, teeming with life, mystery, and wonder. Countless generations have grown here, spawning many tales of life and death, of joy and misery, of carrots and cheese.

In the wake of a disastrous volcanic eruption, it has fallen into ruin.

Although the alien creatures that had once inhabited this world have long since fled, having escaped the planet in search of a more suitable place to live, it seems that not everything has been taken with them. Two pairs of eggs lie alone in this world, abandoned by their parents and the aliens that brought their very species to life.

They mirror each other with orange and light blue patterns, as if they've been connected by fate. One pair lies near a turning water wheel, their shells gently dotted with mist from the roaring waterfalls nearby. The other pair lies at the top of a wooden platform built on a tree, near a nest of birds, cooled by the rushing winds beneath a breathtaking sky of stars.

A new generation is about to begin: one in which these two opposing clans shall rise, each eager to reclaim the once-wonderful world that was prematurely torn from their hands.

This is their fight: The Waterworks.
