Since magic revealed itself to the minds of mortals and Gods alike, many strange and powerful happenings have taken place. While many magical wonders are inspiring and bring forth positive results, there are others that shine a light on the darker side of magical minds. A small group of magic users began to notice the strange results of their peers' work. Their focus landed on the objects that had been used to store a foe's souls/spirits/minds into objects, out of malicious motives. These 'things' often met horrible ends at the hands of ignorant folks thinking they were evil, when they merely sought help to be free of the prison they had found themselves in.
The small group finally decided the best manner of dealing with these beings was to create a safe haven for them to dwell in without worry of being destroyed due to fear and lack of understanding. The resulting solution was Aquilo Valley. A secluded piece of land removed from the eyes of the realm. Some of the group members sacrificed their own lives in the realm to live within the Valley as well, until they found the cure for the trapped souls.
The magic concealing the Valley from sight dwindled over time and one wall became visible. Heightened with curiosity, adventurous realm residents took tools to the wall and tore it to the ground. Thus, the Valley of Aquilo was unveiled. Since this happened, some glory seekers, historians, researchers and curious wanders have come to settle their own homes here. In many cases, they simply remained too long in the atmosphere, which apparently has a contagious affect..causing folks to go a little wacky. It is rumored that the original ritual allowed for the air to bring such an affect for those residing there, to ease their hapless existence. Obviously, they did not anticipate this would also have an impact on themselves! Visitors should be prepared to witness extraordinary sights.
