June 22, 3106 - Erudin Palace
For years now, practitioners of the arcane arts and vile tree-magic have been able to teleport throughout Norrath using a combination of soul-binding and the use of structures from ages past, including druid rings to invoke the favor of nature deities and spires left by the ancient Combine Empire. Some of the most ambitious wizards believe that they may soon even break into the realms of the gods themselves. But research into this possibility has lead to unforeseen consequences. Travel across Norrath requires no transcendence beyond the material realm but reaching into the planes demands that one breaks with the reality that we find ourselves attached to. This breaking has made us realize that we do not exist in the only material realm, others exist and when the bonds are broken, interactions may occur between realms. This fact has been demonstrated to a staggering degree in very recent history. With the planar experimentation in the arcane capitals of the world, it appears our material realm has been merged with another, most similar plane of material existence. This realm contains all the same structure, types of beings, and artifacts, but it seems each person within is unique, along with any organizations they may have founded. With all of these new neighbors inhabiting the new combined material plane, it remains to be seen how steady the peace shall be in our new shared experience.
