Product Description
This represents a new dimension for the characters from Shalilayo, who have developed completely different lives in their distant world. The personalities of the characters are remarkably similar, and you will find yourselves comfortably settling into the adventurous world of Shalilayo with a a sense of familiarity with the characters that immediately renews your connection to them. On the world these characters inhabit, the ability to use Yar is almost completely lost to the human race. A scientist and his colleague from earth discovered the new world after inadvertently creating a wormhole while studying methods for dispelling radiation. The ability to sense their own spirits and use that energy to effect the world around them created whole knew possibilities for technological wonders. Their knowledge of physics from being scientists on Earth enhanced their ability to use Yar, and soon they organized the local nomads of the world to join together and build a civilization that surpassed Earth's greatest achievements. After a dispute on governing practices with his colleague, a war began as the two of them fought for what they believed to be the correct form of government. The culmination of the war nearly destroyed the planet, leaving only a fraction of the population alive to try and rebuild their homes in a world that was almost completely dominated by blighted wastelands as a result of the horrific weapons used by the warring factions. Now, two thousand years later, the same man who claimed to be the scientist fighting for what was right has resurfaced and is mixing several youth's from the city of Chasel Ri' Aven into his schemes. What lies at stake is not just the world they live in, but the entirety of existence as we know it.
