The Closing

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

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.”
