Hello! So, for the past few months I have been working a lot of overnights at my new job. Barely see anyone, and my list of assignments are easy to complete, so I have lots of time to think. During the mind numbing boredom of it all, I have create dozens of little worlds and stories in my head to keep me entertained, and sane, during those long hours. One storyline in particular I am incredibly fond of, and have even considered trying to write a book about, but I hardly have the time or focus to do a project that extensive. Instead, I wanted to return here to this site after so long and give it another try, and see if the story idea could possibly be changed to fit into the expansive world here.
The basic background of the story revolves around an organization known as the Order of the Embers, a semi-occult magic based group dedicated to the preservation of the Burnt Cycle, a long term goal for the organization to try and control, and eventually, eliminate magic from the world. They see magic as a wild, dangerous substance that if left free, will eventually lead to the destruction of the world. They do this by finding the Flameborn, a single individual who is connected to the natural magic of the world, and with this connection, slowly increases the strength of the "wall" they are building between the world and magic, using the Flameborn's own life essence to create the magical bricks. Eventually the Flameborn is drained and passes, and the Order of the Embers seeks out the next one in the link.
Also toyed with the thought that the Order of the Embers and the Flameborn try and create a new kingdom based on this philosophy and sudo-religion.
Now, this idea does not fit all that well with the magic rules set up, and magic world in general that exists on Chronicles as far as I am aware, and that is why I made this post before trying anything else. I would love to get some feedback on this general idea, and some pointers on how best to try and go forward with this idea, or a similar one on this site. And if you might be interested in taking part...I will provide cinnamon rolls!
