The Closing (2012)

Submitted by GianniVacca on Mon, 01/10/2012 – 08:05

How fast did the Closing “kick in”? Overnight (ie, all of a sudden sea travelling became impossible), gradually (first it became impossible to travel far from the shore, then even close to it)?


the Guide to Glorantha tells us

“It began in 920, when the first ships were swept away from Brithos, and took 50 years to reach the Sofali Isles.”

[In 965] “the invisible wall pushed up to the fringes of the Eastern Island, but dissipated instead of moving among them.”
