Introduction to the World of Shadows The eternal quest for immortality for most has been only a dream which cannot be, for others it has been achieved and for some of those...it has become an unending nightmare! Upon our own Earth, humanity has always sensed immortality was within its grasp and yet, such has always proven an illusion because so few truly understood what it was they sought. As the World of Shadows began to separate from our Earth, the secret of immortality would become lost to the world of man and an unending curse for a new world not fully birthed from the old. So it was that a world without Death, without Hell and without a past to call its own came to be. Then came the Dark One, the awakening of a planets soul as he pulled free of Gaea's womb and saw his world in agony as there was no relief from pain or sorrow. So it was that the Dark One found a fallen one lying ravaged within the Earth and pulling him up within his reassuring hands, the Dark Emperor became reborn and was set within the World of Mists and Shadow to make his place within it. Within the Black Rose lore, there exist 13 realms, each on a separate plane of existence. These realms, while vastly varied and different from one another, exist within the same space, only separated by a thin veil of magic. We have lived our lives oblivious to the other realms, but there was a time when this was not so. In the ancient past, before mankind would learn the secrets of civilization, Orcs and Fae dwelled beside us, but as we turned toward religion and science, the world began to separate. A huge war between what we now call natural and supernatural was waged. Forests were leveled, swamps were drained, mountains were conquered, and humanity slowly forced the supernatural world onto other planes of existence apart from the world of man. There are many ways to cross, a few have been given the gift that allows them to cross between these planes, and others have found themselves in another realm while daydreaming. We have found a doorway to the other realms, and will allow you to enter them provided you bring back images of what you see there. We never know what realm the doorway will take you to, or what you will see there, but we look forward to your discoveries. -mouse over to pause-
