Another Time Revisited
'The river ran backwards on the day the Queen vanished." Followed by the hours, and then the days. Soon after, even the seasons became distorted, with snow falling mid-summer and fiery heat scorching the ground in winter. Night and day changed phases too, the sun began to rise in the west, near dusk and the moon shone at will, in the middle of the day. Language became unrecognizable and all communication faltered. Plagues, pests and vermin ravaged the land and food sources, until all the supplies nearly dwindled to nothing.

THE TRAGEDY OF THE BLIND COMMUNITY
In a valley surrounded by tall mountains, there lay a village known for its eccentric inhabitants: two distinct groups who lived alongside each other yet were worlds apart. One group consisted of the Blind, men and women with strong limbs and healthy bodies, yet they lived without the gift of sight. Their heightened sense of hearing and smell helped them navigate the village with impressive skill, and they prided themselves on their independence. The other group was made up of the Lame, people who had eyes sharp as an eagle’s but whose legs were twisted or weak, confining them to the ground or to walking aids.

The Fall of Altair
The river ran backwards on the day the Queen vanished. A subtle slowing of the flow began in the early morning and became increasingly obvious over the course of a few hours. That's when we started to feel the land beneath our feet tremble slightly, then drop slowly in the direction of the setting twin moons.
