The Long Journey
Placeholder page for later development.
Why This Mention Matters
- This event should explain the crossing phase between departure and settlement, turning migration into ordeal, memory, and myth.
- It is important because the Dark Sea journey likely determined who survived, what institutions endured, and which stories became sacred to later Ardentian civilization.
- It should also clarify how fear, attrition, navigation, and supernatural pressure shaped the peoples who reached Ardentis.
Development Direction
- Establish whether this was one continuous fleet movement or several staggered crossings later remembered as a single historic passage.
- Clarify what made the Dark Sea lethal: storms, magic, hostile forces, scarcity, or all of them together.
- Identify the symbols, leaders, and losses remembered from the crossing, especially the parts that later shaped political legitimacy.
