The ground keeps shuddering, at first it was faint... but now. Now it?s getting stronger. The wind rarely blows in this darkness, it always seems to happen around the time of the tremors, which is when it rains and our flames go out. Even the ones indoors.
What?s going on?
When will this darkness end??

?One month has passed and people are falling ill, at least we think it?s been a month. Everyone is exhausted all the time and fights keep breaking out over light sources. We spend our waking hours huddled around the small fires we have lit. Are we going to die like this? They?re all miserable and a few just seem to cry all the time. We?ve had to resort to burning spare furniture to keep the lights burning.
A few of the braver folks have taken some supplies and gone in search of some more wood from the forest, no one knows if they?ll ever return.
It?s hard to write in this light, but it?s the only thing that?s keeping my sanity somewhat intact.?

Welcome to Return to Darkness!
I?m a big fantasy fan, and I love creating a world to write in - which sometimes can take months. This time around, the ideas flowed like water and bam. Here we are! Sure, there?s probably countless fantasy rp?s around; but this one is my own. It?s my squishy.
*Ehem*
But yes, I?ve been interested in doing some sort of adventure story and lo and behold, an idea popped into my head. Although the original idea has evolved into what we have now from my first idea.
I?m going to welcome all characters from all walks of life in this grand adventure! Sure, we can all play the mage who can kill a cow and cook it perfectly for dinner with one spell, or the archer who can shoot a fly at 500 feet onto the head of a needle... But what about those wannabe adventurers? The alchemist whose best creation was a delightful cup of tea? Or the swordsman who can barely carry their weapon? I want these characters too! I want healers who will faint at the sight of blood! They?ll need a thirst for adventure, but we can?t all be seasoned heroes! Lose your sword? Panic and steal one from a fellow adventurer, or grab a stick and start swinging!
I?d like at least a paragraph per post, we don?t need to read how every blade of grass moves in each novella size post. Sure, they?ll probably happen from time to time - but quality over quantity here folks! If you can post every couple of days to keep things moving, that would be great; I know I get impatient once things start moving along.
I should probably introduce myself a little. I?m still sort of new to the site, but I always have ideas bouncing around in my head. Which is good, seeing as I?m a writing student! I?ve been roleplaying for around 15 years? (Yes, I?m old I know.) I live in Australia, so my posting times might be a little strange for you northern hemisphere dwellers. I also don?t bite, so if you have issues or questions: PM me or post on the OOC thread!
