Rumour/Elemental Clocks
From West Of Vipers Gate
The Lizard Folk Empire formed the backbone of civilization west of the Adderwall, especially in the islands of the Southern Ocean for many centuries before the rise of the Vaun. Their civilization was balanced precariously on the back of time, as all of the Folk were compelled to enter The Dreaming when it was too warm, and therefore the spent much of their time managing time itself.
As part of their experiments with time - this lead to the creation of the Four Great Clocks.
- The first is the Clock of Water - situated in the archipelago of the Golden Kingdom - the clock is the capital dome of the Vaun. It still functions and is used to monitor the other clocks, as well as part of the Vaun's experiments with magic.
- The second is the Clock of Earth - the Blasted Metropolis was formed around the earth clock - with people using the Metropolis as a stopover to trade with the Lizard Folk - until the Lizard Folk stopped coming, and the trading post became a trade hub on its own. The party raised this clock, slew the spirits of pain preventing the Vaun from entering, and destroyed the nascent godling growing inside. They did not fix the welling magic.
- The third is the Clock of Fire - its location is lost - but it's rumoured to be in the Southern Volcano.
- The fourth is the Clock of Air - its location is also lost - it is rumoured to fly, perhaps be on a cloud island.
There is the final Clock - which is from a different set.
