[WP] You are hunting a young buck through a forest. Suddenly it breaks into a clearing. You line up your shot and notice the deer beginning to falter in its steps, it's fur becoming more mange and clumps of fur start to drop off. As the deer nears the center of the clearing it just keels over dead.

[WP] Two powerful wizards have been feuding for years, but until today it was always fairly civil: written letters, disputations published in scholarly circles, and the occasional annoying and irritating curse. Today one of the wizards was found dead with the other wizard's dagger in his back.

[WP] Horrible abominations made entirely out of negative emotions start to crawl out of people's minds. Toy weapons are very effective against them because they are charged with positive emotions, even a Super Soaker is more or less a acid gun.

[WP] A blacksmith forged a coffin of steel. Death lays down to rest in the coffin, the blacksmith seal it shut and throws it into the sea. For 300 years there's no death, old people are tired of living and begin to search for Death.

[WP] The Allfather isn't dying, but he sits on his throne drooling, eyes vacant, rotting on his throne. The world rots in sympathy with him. The goddess of life has given up her duties and now has become a goddess of death. The only hope for humanity is to ask for the aid of the trickster God.

[WP] It seems like the very same barkeep happens to work at an inn in every city the you pass, and he never denies having met you before. How can one dwarf have the time to run inns in three kingdoms at the same time? And why does he only ever accept stories and rumors as payment instead of coin?

[WP] For one shining moment, each of us saw the city, a glittering jewel under the moonlight. We found each other, for we can recognize those who have seen it. Together we fight to reclaim joy, together we work to rebuild hope. Together we call back the soul of the city and make it real once again.
