[b][i]“By the beard of my ancestors… A creature floating like a cloud in the sky, I’ve never seen the likes of it. Come, Ragna, let’s see what other mysteries this world holds!”[/i][/b] The colossal Gaianas, once hidden deep within the planet’s core, have awakened. Released by the same magic that shattered Driftland, these island-sized creatures now soar majestically through the skies, a living reminder of the planet's raw, untamed power. Their arrival is always with consequence. [b]Wherever the Gaianas appear, significant events soon follow.[/b] They bring change—sometimes for good, sometimes for ill. Their immense presence stirs the flow of mana, disrupting magic itself and altering the balance of the world. Legends speak of the Gaianas as guardians of Driftland’s core, but their release could signal the dawn of a new era. Will you harness their power or be swept away by the forces they unleash?
