However, every time one of these gates is used, it tears a wormhole in space-time, that subsequently closes and begins to heal. The healing of a wormhole is a slow process. However, the sheer number of wormholes being created is causing serious damage to some of the worlds, and is depositing dangerous fauna of various universes in populated areas. +* Drop the player into Tortuga +* Tortuga is being destroyed +* etc. + +## Myth Books + +#### Back Story + +Since before memory, the worlds were seperated across countless dimensions. Only a few powerful mages called "World Walkers" could travel freely between these isolated islands. One particularly powerful world walker called Domino created the first world gates. Since then, the worlds have been open for travellers and adventurers, traders and politicians of all kinds. + +Recently, some worlds have begun spawning natural portals summoning, from the depths of the countless worlds, fierce horrors and rare treasures. These portals, not unlike those created by the world walkers of old, are drawing ambitious adventurers into dangrous and unstable worlds. Some seek fame and riches, others dare to test themselves against whatever fate throws at them. + +#### World Gates, A Brief History + +The world walker Domino created the World Gate Network in an attempt to stabilise the positions of the many worlds relative to each other. Although his efforts failed, minor modifications allowed non-world walkers to travel between the worlds connected to the network. However, one unforseen side effect of the modifications was the creation of "portals"; one or two directional access points between worlds that are, at this time, unpredictable. + +Another, more devistating side effect of increased use of the network, is the destabilization of prevously safe and stable worlds. An unstable world can be identified by an occupant as having constantly shifting geographical locations, having a loss or alteration of colours, and in the later stages, a severe decrease in size before finally breaking apart. Some relics of worlds destroyed this way can often be found in nearby worlds. + +#### Tortuga Island + +The people of the Tortuga islands have a legend of how they arrived. The legend states that when a god saw a small group of sailors clinging to a piece of driftwood, he took pity on them and created the islands in front of their eyes. These sailors went on to have many descendants who cover the islands today. Small pieces of knowledge passed down led to the recreation of old technologies, such as the steam powered machines that are used in everyday life. Although the people live in towns and villages all over the islands, very little is known about the islands themselves. +## Ideas - -old myth: - -The people of the Tortuga islands have a legend of how they arrived.
