As it has been for generations, the Nharkim remain by far the most advanced race,82Please respect copyright.PENANA2bhh0qSCwl
by quite the margin as anyone can tell just by looking at their city from far away - their82Please respect copyright.PENANAKWFewCcGzF
greatness is known to all.82Please respect copyright.PENANA76jvjNaXTz
No other civilisation at this time can even come close to competing with them, and82Please respect copyright.PENANA5bZICD9ZTI
so his majesty Hervies the current Human king must push even more. He is ruthless82Please respect copyright.PENANAjlnqkITChb
and carries much fear in his chest, more than any other ruler before him, and if his82Please respect copyright.PENANALEDkDRUYxL
heart is tight, the borders of his scruples extend far and wide.82Please respect copyright.PENANAXbmxnSrKOg
There is nothing that the almighty Hervies will not do for his ambitions.82Please respect copyright.PENANAUMAM1Xb0t4
The feelings of admiration and awe, of respect and fear towards anything Centra,82Please respect copyright.PENANAfiLcFxBVKQ
have long been replaced by folly and greed, by petty and misguided ambitions.82Please respect copyright.PENANAY2tZkxulqF
Perhaps nothing shows this better than the Human king’s efforts in his perpetual quest82Please respect copyright.PENANA3RBwe8gJfV
for his race to take the front seat. He and all under him have been doing whatever is82Please respect copyright.PENANAFRmLNMLj75
deemed necessary to not fall behind for generations. Hervies is just the next in line of82Please respect copyright.PENANAd1csk8xGPn
a long succession of rulers living in constant fear of what the Nharkim could do at any82Please respect copyright.PENANAlwyzAEQPVo
time. But something makes him different however, and no other king that has come82Please respect copyright.PENANAuGfCNwtY1G
before him has gone as far as he is willing to go. No other Human ruler before him has82Please respect copyright.PENANA9tuedicoZm
had so much pressure felt upon his crown either.82Please respect copyright.PENANAJDAWAiqOPM
The Nharkim technology seems to grow almost exponentially, improving almost82Please respect copyright.PENANAJvQGp6mqhd
by the day and soon who... even now, can guess what they could be scheming?82Please respect copyright.PENANAH2IqeSX8eV
The necessary measures must thus be taken even further than that, such as the constant82Please respect copyright.PENANAVNoQqx3Fs0
deployment of all sorts of scavenger teams to all the known corners of the world in82Please respect copyright.PENANAp6pmRUC6Vv
desperate attempts to try and uncover more Centra property. All in the hopes of finally82Please respect copyright.PENANAxKKJIfumgj
unveiling some of their biggest secrets, something that could give the Humans the82Please respect copyright.PENANAY8IRaIyfew
necessary advantage to at last take their place as the most powerful in all the lands.82Please respect copyright.PENANAWvI0Gv0Dmw
Hervies holds nothing back when it comes to achieving this; he is well known even by82Please respect copyright.PENANAJVhOycj3vt
those outside his race, as a ruler with complete disregard towards anyone’s welfare and82Please respect copyright.PENANANWM191YIuc
how much it might all cost. Time and again he has proven that he is more than willing82Please respect copyright.PENANAe74uEIz5TD
to pour any amount of funds, and he has no restraints in raising taxes either to do so.82Please respect copyright.PENANAwrQy5Rpq7X
He is a dangerous man.82Please respect copyright.PENANAhZ0vw9ikzf
Not just to others but also to himself. He is perhaps the most dangerous human82Please respect copyright.PENANALyacxcUBRk
to walk this world in quite some time. Desperation drives him and the fear he feels82Please respect copyright.PENANA90I9c9d1Il
himself, he has no qualms in casting upon others. With each passing day, he tightens82Please respect copyright.PENANAGsq9RaSi61
the noose around his own people’s neck; he demands skin and teeth from all the82Please respect copyright.PENANAMDO5AUTZcF
hard-working folk and quite the percentage of his kingdom are on the verge of82Please respect copyright.PENANAf6H4p8cki2
starvation.82Please respect copyright.PENANAgC1kqWJmlq
Then he comes and offers insurmountable amounts of currency to anyone willing82Please respect copyright.PENANAmA6OHLlyme
to do his bidding and in doing so, obviously, Hervies has no problem finding the82Please respect copyright.PENANAVXmlbYN1UE
required man labour for the more outrageous efforts the Human kingdom is putting82Please respect copyright.PENANAjBNTIpgbXl
up these last years. For many years these desperate searches have been going on, for82Please respect copyright.PENANAmVbQ7Dp6Be
the slightest glimpse at any Centra secret and the Celitian Continent has been entirely82Please respect copyright.PENANAH3HRfxYuwI
dug up three times over or so, it seems. They have searched any and all ruins, they82Please respect copyright.PENANAIQTZnPLecj
have excavated the soil to the point of not even one more hole can be dug up. In their82Please respect copyright.PENANA1q0Ygv1AWi
efforts, they exhausted all the land around them and so the time came to look further.82Please respect copyright.PENANAjRohtycS05
The time to spread and send search teams outside the known charts, to venture forth82Please respect copyright.PENANA7GdzN7GyJy
into the unknown dark corners of the world that most are afraid to even mention82Please respect copyright.PENANA2sZVi469dS
let alone set foot in. This is how the “Cloudsiras” came to be, Human expeditions82Please respect copyright.PENANAqLQ9Q4jlA3
hell-bent on finding and bringing back what their king values most. No other race is82Please respect copyright.PENANAlFrBIYZlCu
known to do this, either because they don’t have the means to cross entire landmasses82Please respect copyright.PENANAFCKtSDhAR5
or because they don’t feel that desperate. Humans, however, are second only to the82Please respect copyright.PENANAPZ0pEyvq52
Nharkim so they can go anywhere. Their numerous airships can sometimes cover82Please respect copyright.PENANAYmm1arR9fa
entire clouds and as for motivation, well, a man must eat, and their king offers plenty...82Please respect copyright.PENANAhjWw9KLmWz
There is still much-uncharted territory across this bleak world, still many landmasses82Please respect copyright.PENANA1u44z4aVDu
and dark continents waiting to be explored.82Please respect copyright.PENANAmoHh853nLy
So these Human Cloudsiras are always stretching their limits, increasing the size82Please respect copyright.PENANA037BXgv8DH
of the known map, they are constantly pushing how far can they go; how much82Please respect copyright.PENANArmyylrKPbW
distance can they cover and how deep can they reach, for as Human technology keeps82Please respect copyright.PENANAIQ2rxHlFMq
advancing so do their means of exploring.82Please respect copyright.PENANAEHqj95mARV
