Re: History of the Arch

I spent my time in the university library researching the political and geographical history of this planet, and while much of what I found confirms what others before me have shared (yet nothing of the Orb), I am curious about the origins of the earthquake that created the landmass on which we stand.

According to the old logs, the earthquake and disease that is killing this planet began in what is now the Seventh Circle, and the water purification camp was constructed directly above the epicenter - the very first camp to be built. I found no records of retrieving the Orb or any other artifact from the area. It appears that interest in the epicenter did not exist until 50 years after the event.

Even if the Orb was taken to the First Circle in secret, the fact that something was released by this earthquake seems something into which we should investigate if we want to save this planet.

Do you happen to know how long ago it was built?

（ he didn't get that deeply into history books during his brief attendance of the university — other things became of greater import. ）

It is a possibility. I'm certain that the magic-users in our group could cleave through stone if necessary — but unless we have clear certainty of the worth of such an endeavour, it would not be in our best interest to commit significant resources.

The earthquake was roughly five hundred years ago. I haven't found a specific year, but it was part of the initial Camp Initiative plans. Perhaps they wanted to purify the area directly at the source while sending their criminals to do the deadly work.

Noted. If we can find more information about this earthquake, we can formulate a plan, but as it is, there is still so much left to learn.

I agree.

Thank you for this information. Please let me know, should you learn more.
