The Quill’s Ruin

Oral History
"The war erupted soon after. Brother fought brother, noble houses turned on one another and entire solar systems were lost to singularity bombs. The House of Wrath was merciless, enslaving entire sectors and bending them to their will. With the fall of the venerable House of Sloth, the free Quill knew they were doomed. So it was the House of Pride delved into ancient texts, forbidden technology in desperation. What they found in the archives of the House of Lust was heinous, a crime ancient even to nigh immortal Quill. Yet, it would end the war. A God, its name long since lost to memory, a primordial entity capable of creation of infinite possibilities was bound and shackled to a weapon so terrible it made singularity bombs look like fireworks.  The House of Wrath gathered all its armies and went to meet the last of the free Quill in one last battle. None truly know what transpired next. A scream so terrible that it echoes still amongst the stars came from the God followed by a light not seen since the Universes creation. Those few who survived told of a terrible silence. Then IT came. The Primordial Veil which engulfs our corner of the galaxy. The Veil which is our world and our prison. The Quill for all their power were helpless against it. One by one they were snuffed as were all other beings capable of taking on a god. The Veil changed the very nature of reality even as the Dragons were born from the gods eyes. For Millennia, only a few dwarves and robots of ancient civilizations existed alongside these dragons. It was as if the entire galaxy had gone silent. Yet, within this veil and in that silence new life flourished. New peoples came into being lived, loved and died. As time went on it became clear while the great Ruin had ended the Quill and all their houses, it had birthed this world. Our World." - Otto Velgafh
