Noon on the same day brought an unexpected phenomenon to the sky: the planets [[Noxtra]], [[Lunastra]], and [[Somnustra]] converged to eclipse the sun. As they aligned, however, the planets failed to continue on their paths, remaining at a standstill in front of the sun, and shrouding the land in darkness. Tavarius was soon found within the [[Vashnars|Vashnar mountains]] in the company of the [[Ourania|Ouranian]] priestess [[Isillinde]], [[Alariel]] of [[Hashan]], the wizard [[Hycanthus]], and [[Ikant]] of [[Ashtan]]. | Noon on the same day brought an unexpected phenomenon to the sky: the planets [[Noxtra]], [[Lunastra]], and [[Somnustra]] converged to eclipse the sun.

A number of strange events surrounded the coming of eternal night: some were closely tied to the machinations of Tavarius, others were simply a result of the absence of sunlight, and still others signified the effect of the great shift in energies brought on by the eclipse. The [[triton|tritons]] stationed in the undersea city of [[Riparium]] left in a mass exodus, a massive [[nychtaur]] rampaged through the city streets of Sapience each midnight, the protective [[forest spirit|spirits of the forests]] disappeared, a strange portal known as [[the Thousandth Door]] began to appear in various locations, ethereal [[ | A number of strange events surrounded the coming of eternal night: some were closely tied to the machinations of Tavarius, others were simply a result of the absence of sunlight, and still others signified the effect of the great shift in energies brought on by the eclipse.

In a desperate effort to combat the darkness, [[Octavius]] of [[Tasur'ke]] nearly burned down his village, [[Marianna]] of [[Caer Witrin]] experimented with new candles that proved toxic, a strange nightblooming flower caused the [[Tomacula|Tomaculan]] chieftan [[Utata]] to become gravely ill, and a young boy from [[Thera]] inadvertently caused a forest fire when he became lost in the darkness. The [[manticores]] near [[Genji]] made an attempt to invade the [[Atavian]] village, and even the [[kobolds]] of [[Minia]] attempted to rise up against their [[pygmies|pygmy]] oppressors under cloak of darkness. | In a desperate effort to combat the darkness, [[Octavius]] of [[Tasur'ke]] nearly burned down his village, [[Marianna]] of [[Caer Witrin]] experimented with new candles that proved toxic, a strange nightblooming flower caused the [[Tomacula|Tomaculan]] chieftan [[Utata]] to become gravely ill, and a young boy from [[Thera]] inadvertently caused a forest fire when he became lost in the darkness.
