DISCLAIMER: I am absolutely NOT by any means a expert on gens' lore. I simply wanted to complete the wq and studied it to the best of my abilities. Please correct any errors I made. Now, I also couldn't find much, so I'm going purely on what I could scrap together. My apologies if parts or the entire thing has already been revealed --------------------------- So, we know very little of the first age of the clans: the plagued era. From what I know and what's in the name, the time was riddled with a disease. But what caused the disease? I have reason to believe that this outbreak, unlike a normal infection, came from some higher source. Possibly a punishment of sorts. While we know very little of the time, it's possible Heart, Flesh, Soul, or one the other gods (I think that's what they're called) could have found a disliking to the actions of the early clans. Possibly some argument or taint if you will. The plagued era could have been a divine punishment--why, then, would we know so little of the time. Why, then, would all the other clans di3 out. But mossclan be spared? While I cannot figure out which deity could have sent this disease, or what actions could have lead to this punishment being sent, I can conclude that knowing them, the gods most likely had some play in this. Why else would two clans be completely wiped out yet one spared? And some may argue that herbs could have supplied mossclan with enough to stay alive, however I feel like, similar to people, the clans would band together in their greatest times of need to support them. Even if they were on bad terms, I feel as though a begrudged alliance would be formed. Better to live than di3 from a grudge. Plus, mossclan tends to be the generous ones; why wouldn't they share their abundance to try to keep costal and blaze alive. Anyways, yeah that's it. Hope this isn't super wrong or smth -.- bye! <3
