The Great Calamity: The Floating Lands

On a day like any other, as the sky turned to dusk across Capital Isle, many lives were lost. It began with the ground shaking harder than it's ever shaken before. The shaking was so fierce that most of the buildings on Capital Isle crumbled outright. As desperate families of every humankin escaped their ruined homes, they could all see them lighting up the sky. The towers stood tall. Bright beams of light shone across the sky seeming to connect the towers together by some otherworldly force.

At first, it seemed that the towers grew taller, yet before long all could see that they had lifted into the sky taking huge sections of land with them. Massive chains extended to the mainland of Capital Isle and as the chains became taught the ground shook again this time with enough force to topple even the strongest buildings. Capital Isle had been lifted into the sky.
