==1.16.5 Forge==
===Overall Lore Summary===
Lore began 550 years after a time period called the Calamity, a time where meteors struck the Overworld, and changed life forever. Time passes and the Shard was found, slowly but surly changing the lives of others with it's dark magic, cursing those that came near, and following under it's rule. Sooner or later a mysterious person called the vault keeper, started to send out books to a selected few, to fight back against this terror that threatens to destroy the world itself. Then came along a mysterious nymph and her beloved trees, cursing then eating those that came near, in her hunger for power. 
All the while friendships and relationships were formed and broken, many people suffering under the terror that each of these three arcs brought with them. Eventually, one by one the life threatening entities were taken down: Zinnia defeated by the 7, the Shard annihilated by Katharos, and finally Amathis defeated by those of the Zodiac.

===Arcs===
Shard Arc
Darkness begins to spread over a small cliff not too far away from the center of the world. Those that wander too close... vanish.
After the first few people go missing and mysterious symptomps pop up the Empire gets involved. With the help of Katharos, they see their mission to be simple: Cleanse the world of the Shard and its 'infection' and don't die while doing so. And so a long, hard battle began.
Zodiac Arc
Mysterious letters begin to appear. They talk about a vault, more precisely, the disaster locked inside said ominous vault. To keep the vault secure (and with it, the world) 12 people, each assigned their own zodiac, must work together to aquire the three vault-keys. Challenges, traps and puzzles stand in their way to success and what does this all really mean? A long time will have passed before they even got close to finding the answers they wanted.
Tree Arc
A gigantous tree stands proudly in the jungle, the magic humming through its roots clear as day. Seven people are fated to cross its path and when they do, the same chorus of whispers fills their mind:
"I… found… you…"
A dangerous game begins where the seven have to go through trials- all to rediscover the story of a long-dead child and to win back the rights to their own soul. Yet Zinnia and her sisters are not to be underestimated.
===Factions===
The Empire
A mighty diarchy with two rulers and a long history. It was originally formed as a permanent alliance between the Valhalla and Somewhere Clan after their respective leaders, Fallen and Illios decided to spread their influence. They settled on splitting the power over their lands and resources evenly and began restoring an abandoned castle as the epicenter of their influence. It prospered soon and the Empire became known as powerful player in politics.
Fellowship Of The Flame
A young kingdom in the blazing depths of the nether with an imposing fortress at its center. Their king, a young man named Boulty, rules his people justly even while dark secrets follow his every step. A misunderstanding, that's all it takes to drag the Fellowship into the biggest war of its time against the Empire. They lose and it sets of a chain of events that lets Boulty's curse finally catch up to him.
Vibrant Fools Pirates
A band of pirates inhabtitating a grande island and overseeing any water transport. Their port is the jetty of many important merchant ships such as parts of the Empire's fleet. Queen Jade, their leader, kept in contact with the most influential people although she always remained neutral.
