Got a basic story finally

Tomorrow's our presentation with Andy, we're pressed for time with story. However, it turns out with this added pressure we're actually getting some good ideas and now we have a basic story.




Previously, we talked about fire worship and how in the Winter Wasteland fire is obviously precious. Therefore the idea of fire being precious or divine would fit in well with the setting.

Prior to the main storyline the gods existed to keep balance and natural order in the world. That is, until the Ice God rebelled to gain more power. The Ice God defeated and effectively killed most of the gods until the Fire God remained. The Ice God was still winning though and the Fire God knew this. So before dying the Fire God cast his/her final essence somewhere on the Earth.

Now, fast forward to the main storyline in a world devoid of fire. We've got this kid listening to the story about the Ice God and the Fire God. This child is adopted, found at the base of the mountain. The child begins to get curious, wondering if the story could be real, and wants to try and find the last essence to bring back fire.

The child begins on their journey to find the truth.



That's the basic frame of it. We'll need to add more details to it to flesh out the story of course. There'll be more of this as the game is developed.
