So my intro blurb (like all intro blurbs of mine) sucks, and the only part of the old XXX page that I feel like maybe should be on this page is this part:

The cloud-laden skies above Elanthia slowly parted and a glimmer of light held the world in the moment. Children stopped playing, and mothers and fathers stood in the wonderment as they gazed towards the heavenly glow. Scholars arguing with each other, patriarchs announcing wars, armies battling armies, all stopped to lift their eyes to the new jewel in the sky.
It was then that a soft voice spoke out; when it knew it had the world's attention. The voice was pure in clarity and tone as it rang across the land: "The day has come, children of Elanthia, when the turmoil and chaos of the world would pose great risk to the balance. The pandemonium of many wars and unnecessary deaths has risen greatly in these past moments and years, when pure wisdom and knowledge could have dissolved the strife. It is in true clarity where balance resides, where kings decide to forego wars for talks of peace and compromise. It is in true clarity that insight and hidden potential is born that can truly restore the world back to proper balance."
The heavens shuddered as the glimmer of light expanded, and slowly began to split apart. Small droplets of light rained down upon Elanthia, one for each person and being that stood gazing up at the sky. And the voice spoke once more as the droplets of light fell upon the foreheads of everyone: "That is why I have chosen to bestow upon you all a new gift of wisdom and knowledge. You may choose how you use this gift, but it is my hope that new potential will be born and the Great Balance will mend itself in time."
As the last of the droplets of light fell, the glimmer in the sky began to fade away. When it was gone, the children of Elanthia lowered their eyes and gazed about their world with the Gift of Lumnis. What happens to Elanthia remains unclear, but for the Arkati Lumnis... a new light is born.
