As it has been for generations, the Nharkim remain by far the most advanced race,88Please respect copyright.PENANAifPT5PA9rM
by quite the margin as anyone can tell just by looking at their city from far away - their88Please respect copyright.PENANAmgJMQ91F2Q
greatness is known to all.88Please respect copyright.PENANAvU645k3kyf
No other civilisation at this time can even come close to competing with them, and88Please respect copyright.PENANAmuwW6Vc3bw
so his majesty Hervies the current Human king must push even more. He is ruthless88Please respect copyright.PENANAa4qcspKEwB
and carries much fear in his chest, more than any other ruler before him, and if his88Please respect copyright.PENANAtXCF3fa2ci
heart is tight, the borders of his scruples extend far and wide.88Please respect copyright.PENANAbKBDzJ2Ixb
There is nothing that the almighty Hervies will not do for his ambitions.88Please respect copyright.PENANALEDvRbZwXE
The feelings of admiration and awe, of respect and fear towards anything Centra,88Please respect copyright.PENANAdb1D6703IQ
have long been replaced by folly and greed, by petty and misguided ambitions.88Please respect copyright.PENANAZMZnMhiUm1
Perhaps nothing shows this better than the Human king’s efforts in his perpetual quest88Please respect copyright.PENANAONaI3f1apn
for his race to take the front seat. He and all under him have been doing whatever is88Please respect copyright.PENANArfoXZTAZnr
deemed necessary to not fall behind for generations. Hervies is just the next in line of88Please respect copyright.PENANA3u1FxL5a9b
a long succession of rulers living in constant fear of what the Nharkim could do at any88Please respect copyright.PENANAyWohjUGPZs
time. But something makes him different however, and no other king that has come88Please respect copyright.PENANAUlLxS0S1Ja
before him has gone as far as he is willing to go. No other Human ruler before him has88Please respect copyright.PENANARXCGH1GhMX
had so much pressure felt upon his crown either.88Please respect copyright.PENANABIntevpvjT
The Nharkim technology seems to grow almost exponentially, improving almost88Please respect copyright.PENANAdfcFsW09uQ
by the day and soon who... even now, can guess what they could be scheming?88Please respect copyright.PENANAC1vguvPhLq
The necessary measures must thus be taken even further than that, such as the constant88Please respect copyright.PENANAEM1EKe1I9e
deployment of all sorts of scavenger teams to all the known corners of the world in88Please respect copyright.PENANA1SYwW81Lxl
desperate attempts to try and uncover more Centra property. All in the hopes of finally88Please respect copyright.PENANABJtvTRBn5d
unveiling some of their biggest secrets, something that could give the Humans the88Please respect copyright.PENANAQfQpjrXbG0
necessary advantage to at last take their place as the most powerful in all the lands.88Please respect copyright.PENANAz8dJdJ5NVW
Hervies holds nothing back when it comes to achieving this; he is well known even by88Please respect copyright.PENANAMGAcJbSHtq
those outside his race, as a ruler with complete disregard towards anyone’s welfare and88Please respect copyright.PENANAVZR54kOGUF
how much it might all cost. Time and again he has proven that he is more than willing88Please respect copyright.PENANArG6B634KaI
to pour any amount of funds, and he has no restraints in raising taxes either to do so.88Please respect copyright.PENANAPbdQ3lDciJ
He is a dangerous man.88Please respect copyright.PENANA9IYhslsWy3
Not just to others but also to himself. He is perhaps the most dangerous human88Please respect copyright.PENANA6cfsaZI8IM
to walk this world in quite some time. Desperation drives him and the fear he feels88Please respect copyright.PENANAXYk1jRIL7S
himself, he has no qualms in casting upon others. With each passing day, he tightens88Please respect copyright.PENANADFF1kHHUtL
the noose around his own people’s neck; he demands skin and teeth from all the88Please respect copyright.PENANAxBCR3ewtqJ
hard-working folk and quite the percentage of his kingdom are on the verge of88Please respect copyright.PENANAfpIAljtyNl
starvation.88Please respect copyright.PENANAlueU0ZWdEQ
Then he comes and offers insurmountable amounts of currency to anyone willing88Please respect copyright.PENANAJOhfHWrwLL
to do his bidding and in doing so, obviously, Hervies has no problem finding the88Please respect copyright.PENANAkGW9qtBySP
required man labour for the more outrageous efforts the Human kingdom is putting88Please respect copyright.PENANAp1qFJqR4T5
up these last years. For many years these desperate searches have been going on, for88Please respect copyright.PENANAp9jd9xuD98
the slightest glimpse at any Centra secret and the Celitian Continent has been entirely88Please respect copyright.PENANANTA17r555p
dug up three times over or so, it seems. They have searched any and all ruins, they88Please respect copyright.PENANALozwrKM9JO
have excavated the soil to the point of not even one more hole can be dug up. In their88Please respect copyright.PENANAgbqRIIElb0
efforts, they exhausted all the land around them and so the time came to look further.88Please respect copyright.PENANAbDJWGLJPSS
The time to spread and send search teams outside the known charts, to venture forth88Please respect copyright.PENANA0la21tG7Z0
into the unknown dark corners of the world that most are afraid to even mention88Please respect copyright.PENANA4pjQJe9Lyg
let alone set foot in. This is how the “Cloudsiras” came to be, Human expeditions88Please respect copyright.PENANACPktJnKNFc
hell-bent on finding and bringing back what their king values most. No other race is88Please respect copyright.PENANAuDoKUR4AqH
known to do this, either because they don’t have the means to cross entire landmasses88Please respect copyright.PENANAzy0cnfFdCd
or because they don’t feel that desperate. Humans, however, are second only to the88Please respect copyright.PENANAKnhB3pex4G
Nharkim so they can go anywhere. Their numerous airships can sometimes cover88Please respect copyright.PENANAgdITVWwX6z
entire clouds and as for motivation, well, a man must eat, and their king offers plenty...88Please respect copyright.PENANAjmVyO2azgy
There is still much-uncharted territory across this bleak world, still many landmasses88Please respect copyright.PENANAeyyprJkVhA
and dark continents waiting to be explored.88Please respect copyright.PENANAaN4tVAD3Nd
So these Human Cloudsiras are always stretching their limits, increasing the size88Please respect copyright.PENANAp5zOVKeEzV
of the known map, they are constantly pushing how far can they go; how much88Please respect copyright.PENANAVeRvPjja0B
distance can they cover and how deep can they reach, for as Human technology keeps88Please respect copyright.PENANAd4rETJTW7B
advancing so do their means of exploring.88Please respect copyright.PENANAUWpWqebN59
