Somewhere far enough from all eyes, there is a mountain lake untouched by time. In the center of this body of water, concealed by dense fog, stood an island. Because the location was difficult to find, the only ones aware of its existence were a race of beings known by the blue planet inhabitants as “The People of the Falling Stars.” These “People of the Falling Stars” recognize themselves as the “Avens.” A species of Cosmic gypsy’s who long ago crash-landed into this mountain lake and now consider it their home. The story starts with their disabled craft hurling from space and then plunging into the freezing cold water of this mountain lake. The only thing that saved them from drowning was a mound of earth jutting from the water. On this plot of land was one gigantic tree stretching to the heavens above. This tree was to become known to the Avens as “The Tree of Cosmic Knowledge.” Here is where the Avens hollowed out the trunk and constructed stairs and rooms to house all the knowledge they had gathered from their adventures across the universe. Here is where they come to gain knowledge and seek guidance. Here is where they begin and where they will end. Here is where they accept the challenge, and here is where they decline. The rest is for a tale to be told another day. May the Moon, Sun, and Stars keep a watchful eye over you.
