BW PDF - Midnight Campaign

The Balance of the WorldThe combination of these forces creates a completemechanism that keeps the world on its course.The Colossal Elders hold the world as it is together,while the Celestial lights keep watch and the Caliganstir the world from within, keeping events alwaysmoving forward.This sets the stage for mortal forces, and the beginningof the history of the world.Other BeingsWhile these are a few of the oldest beings to inhabit theworld, they are by no means the only forces of magicand strength. As the world formed and the earliest agesbegan their chains of events, other beings came to exist,until one by one the world as it is was formed. Many ofthese have grown in strength to rival even the strongestof the Caligan, and there is always room for new forcesto rise in the world, helping shape this age and prepareit for the future to come.Further, it is the existence of these greater forces thatallows the mortal races to exist, and it is within theworkings of the mortal races where all of the actionwill take place.“There is one thing every explorer learns early on.The world is too vast and too strange for any oneperson to see all of it. That is the essenceof wanderlust, really, the drive to see what’s next.It’s a thirst that can never really be filled,no matter how far or how long one travels.”156
