Moon Mage vision list 2024

This list includes visions from the Moon mage event prediction ability experienced in 2024.

Also included are spontaneous visions experienced without the use of the PREDICT command. These latter visions can be experienced by any moon mage as long as they're logged into the game environment when the vision is distributed. Generally these visions signal incipient invasions or immediate developments in an ongoing event or storyline.

Moon mage visions stem directly from their prophetic link to the Plane of Probability and connection to Fate.

2024

Date and Time: 2/6/2024
Waves splash gently against the hull of a small, single-masted boat, and a man checks a compass briefly before making a minor course adjustment. Pulling several lines, he trims the sails, though it seems more out of habit than any need to do so. The boat steadily though slowly cuts through the gentle seas, heeling slightly in the weak beam wind. Scanning the cloudless skies, the man heads below deck to prepare a quick meal of jerky and water. Returning to the helm, the man sighs in boredom. He checks his compass once again, though the boat remains on course. He leans back and closes his eyes, basking in the warm midday sun. The winds slow and cease entirely, and without opening his eyes the man merely swears as only sailors can, and rubs his forehead in frustration. The sea is still, the sky is empty, and the vision fades.

In endless, starry darkness, you soar, winding between constellation and swirls of diffuse dust. A lighthouse rapidly spins, casting twin beams of light that pierce the void, illuminating nothing, and you drift past the ancient object. You bump into a slowly moving disturbance, gently pushed aside as the distortion tunnels in a winding motion. In the distance, you make out a point of dark blue light, and will yourself towards it. The point recedes, and you pursue. After some time, the light vanishes, and the vision fades.

A winter field stretches before you, and with a squeal of laughter, a child skips through the fluffy snow. Kneeling down, the child scoops a generous sweep of snow into her mittened hands and begins to form a compact snowball. After a bit of work, she holds up a lumpy mass and grins happily. Suddenly, the snowball vibrates angrily, and several large spikes of slushy ice expand outward. The child frowns and scoops up a bit more snow and compacts the snowball, restoring it to a lumpy sphere, but after a moment, the snowball once again vibrates angrily and expands erratically. Undeterred, the child once again scoops up some more snow and compacts the mass, and the vision fades.

With a hammering blow, you feel the air torn from your chest, and you find yourself cast high into the sky, the curve of Elanthia falling away as you flail madly to orient yourself. In the distance, you make out a perfect circle of featureless dark blue light, which begins to grow, though you are unable to ascertain whether the object is approaching or expanding. The edges of the circle begin to blot out the stars and moons, covering the curve of the planet, and still it grows. You feel yourself tugged forward, falling into the circle as its edges expand ever outward and it seems to wrap around you, a shrinking circle of visible space behind you, getting smaller and smaller. Finally, there is nothing but dark blue light, and the vision fades.

You find yourself in a featureless clean room. The lighting casts no shadows, and the walls are bare, though a single doorway graces the far wall. The door suddenly opens, and the woman in the wide-brimmed hat quickly steps into the room, closing an the door behind her. Her cataract-clouded eyes look you over head to toe, and she says, "Didn't mean to be late. Turn around." Skeptically, you turn to see a silver rod extending from the floor, forking until it is approximately eye level. With a flourish, she lights a cigarillo and steps past you. Inhaling deeply and blowing a series of smoke rings that dance and dissipate around the forks, she nods in approval. "I admit this one took me by surprise," she says with a chuckle, and raps her knuckle against one of the tines. The object rings, the tone building, echoing louder and louder. The sound continues to build, the tines begin to visibly vibrate, the woman grins bigger, and the vision fades.

You are falling, the cold air tearing across your face as a distant Elanthia looms. You can make out several distant landmarks, the Segoltha Bay, distant islands, the forests of Leth Deriel. As you orient yourself, you realize you are falling directly above the eastern span of the Dragonspine Mountain range. Several lances of blue light flash past you, hurtling downward. Exploding with violent light and fire moments after they flicker across the landscape, the staccato impacts reach you several seconds later. Several more lances of light flicker around you, focusing into a large spike of blue crystal, crackling at it hardens and lengthens into a jagged point. Carefully, you telekinetically nudge your body closer to the otherworldly object, and bracing yourself, you strike it with a sharp blow. The crystal chips but quickly heals and reforms. The ground races towards you, and the vision fades.

A calm forest brook flows around stones and fallen logs, the air filling with the sound of birds and crickets chirping. Fireflies lazily drift along the waters and brush, gathering en masse as they flicker in sequence creating beautiful surges of yellow-green luminescence. Gradually, the fireflies drift closer and closer together, forming a cluster of light that grows brighter and brighter, holding its shape before you as the insects struggle to fly in such a tight formation. The orb of flying fireflies grows brighter and brighter, and suddenly, goes dark. As your eyes adjust once again to the darkness of the forest brook, you see a large clump of dead fireflies drifting downstream, and the vision fades.

A pair of scuttlers appear before you, scrutinizing you momentarily. They turn, and begin carving the ground into an intricate series of curves and swirls, filling the pattern with glowing crystal. A pulsating dark blue light explodes across the sky, and the scuttlers begin working faster. As they continue to carve the ground, a dark blue rippling gate is revealed beneath them, which they step atop its rippling surface as if it is solid. Peaking over the edge of the gate, you see a view of a sweeping field of stars, slowly rotating, and recognize Merewalda and Morleena before the view begins to fill with the curve of Elanthia. As the view continues to rotate, the scuttlers appear to look directly overhead. Suddenly, the view within the gate snaps to perfect stillness, and you watch for several long moments as clouds slowly drift across the planet and overhead. The view begins to blur with pulsating dark blue light, and the vision fades.

Water splashes over your face, and you struggle to stay afloat in stormy seas. Waves crash overhead, and the wind howls, tearing at the water in a furious gale. Sliding along swells and surges, you lose all sense of direction and become submerged for longer and longer periods of time, unable to reach the surface, unable to breathe. Everything is silent beneath the waves, the inky blackness of the depths wavering under spears of light that does nothing to illuminate beyond the storm-torn surface. A coil of steelsilk snags your upthrust arm, looping around your wrist and tightening almost painfully, yanking you upward. You clear the surface, coughing, and are pulled higher, dangling above the ocean surface, swinging madly in the storm. You look around to find nothing but endless sea and storm. Following the line of the rope, you see that it extends far into the clouds, disappearing into a swirl of pulsating dark blue light. The vision fades.

Exhaustion bludgeons you suddenly, and you stagger, but do not fall. The shroud-wrapped corpse of your dead friend presses down across your shoulders. You walk, one foot in front of the other, sinking into the mud, and the landscape slowly changes. Trees give way to scrub, grass gives way to desert. You walk, one foot in front of the other, back aching and shoulders tiring. The sun touches the horizon and stains the land orange as the stars emerge. "Could be worse, you know," the voice of your friend says. "Could be you that died. Not sure I'd be able to carry you all this way." "Shut up. You're dead," you reply. "The dead don't speak." "Let it end with us," the voice pleads. "There's nothing left." "I... I can't. I won't." You continue walking, the dust swirling around your feet, and the night deepens, the stars burning above. The vision fades.
