Scene 0200
I. The Six Queens[]
From Lore Master: Julian
"Thousands of years ago, in the ancient city of Solvana, there was a beloved King. The King was loved because he gave much love to the people of Solvana. The King believed that love is something that if you give it away, then you end up having more. The King had fallen in love six times, six queens. First was Annabel. A talented writer and artistic mind with long golden hair that shone in the sunlight. Second was Catherine. Of darker skin and curly black hair, she was a constant distraction for the King and he caved under the weight of her constant cuteness. Catherine had a profound influence on the King up until his final breath as she visited in his dreams but neither visited nor communicated in RL. No queen inflicted more mental suffering upon the King as Catherine. Third was Tari. The King was more intrigued than in love with Tari. Fourth was Jess. Spunky and full of laughter, Jess lit up the room, although she was judgmental of the King at times. Fifth was Maria. A fiery woman and talented philosopher, Maria impressed the King with her intelligence and passion for academia but he could not keep up with their abundant quarrels and disagreements. Sixth was Eva. In addition to her curly long brown hair and general beauty, Eva was responsible, dependable, hard-working, trustworthy, and exhibited a high-degree of emotional control - something the King lacked. The King was an emotional man, constantly dwelling on the past and regretting his mistakes, as his queens always reminded him. Too often looking back, the King drove himself into madness and depression. Yet still loving each of his queens until his final breath, he declared one final order upon his deathbed: "When I am gone, the six queens shall rule in my stead. Annabel, West. Catherine, East. Tari, the seas. Jess, the skies. Maria, North. Eva, South. To my six queens, I grant rule over these jurisdictions of Solvana. Each of the six queens have great capacity to love. I have seen it myself. May the six queens give their love to the people of Solvana... and may the people love their queens... as I did."
II. Solitara[]
From Lore Master: Otter
"Solitara is the most visited city within the Solverse. Everyone knows this. Around every corner is a beautiful family-owned restaurant or heroic landmark. Oh, and the beautiful marketplaces!

Vendors from all planets on the Solverse selling all types of delicious foods and beverages. What a site Solitara is! The joy and charm of the Solverse. Everyone loves Solitara."
III. Belugos[]
From Lore Master: Breezer
"Artists from across the galaxies come to the City of Belugos to pursue their passion. Art collectors funnel into the streets to purchase the new works of their favorite artists and creators. By many, Belugos is colloquially referred to as “The Land of Creation”. Nearly every famous artistic creator - musicians, painters, digital architects, animators, sculptors, culinary experts, academics - have developed and honed their skills in Belugos. Many of them share studios and discuss artistic techniques in the marketplaces. The beauty and charm of Belugos is unparalleled and infinite. The excitement and electricity in the air is refreshing to all."
IV. The Bells Of Solvana[]
From Lore Master: Genesis
"The Twenty-Four Bells of Solvana arrived from the cities of Pocho, Vaston, Varas, Bermaesh, Parta, Stratos, Terraskapore, Eastcolt, Blackberry, Sane, Xogaell, Reidey, Olivera, Scorsene, Dweyer, Hilde, Briseis, Zorog, Tarath, Branche, Doria, Scycarya, Acalogue, and of course, Solvana, built by Julian. In Solvana, each hour of the day is defined by the chime of a bell from a different city. Sunrise Chimes during the hours of Stratos, Terraskapore, and Eastcolt. Sunset Chimes during the hours of Zorog, Tarath, and Branche. The Spontaneous Chime of the Midnight Bell of Solvana, representing the beginning of a new day, a new adventure, a new memory, a new story, a new opportunity for the Explorers of the Solverse."
V. The Bells Of Solvana[]
From Lore Master: Libra
"Throughout Solvana stands 24 bell towers. Atop 23 of the towers is a bell from a foreign land, gifted thousands of years ago to the High King Alexander for each year of his 24-year reign. The twenty-fourth bell is unique, for it was handcrafted in Solvana by an artist known as Julian — the bell of Tower 24. The magic of the bell of Tower 24 is that each day, at midnight, the bell chimes a unique sound, never repeating itself. Each bell is of different origin. Hence each bell is of distinct design and sound. Every hour, a different bell rings. Tower Four is hardly ever heard as it sounds early in the morning at 04:00, Tower Eleven sounds each day at 11:00, Tower 15 sounds at 15:00, and Tower 24 sounds at midnight. Each day, many stay up until midnight to hear the day's unique chime from Tower 24. Most inhabitants of Solvana are so familiar with the sound of each bell that they can easily identify the hour by simply listening to the bell towers' chimes. Of course, whenever a new chime is heard, all know it is midnight and the start of a new day."
VI. A New Energy[]
From Lore Master: Kicks
"Let it be known that in galaxies future the sky is ablaze with energy and light. There exists foreign lands giddy with the hum of humanity and industry. These worlds are not naturally bountiful or rich, no, but they are super charged with good fortune of others' spoils. For the energy available there is born of waste and overuse of the worlds before it. You see, energy in the universe is gravitational and eternal across space and time. It lives forever. When Mother Earth burned through its last resource and the world said its final goodnight, it birthed the flame of a thousand new worlds."
VII. Yako's Message[]
From Lore Master: Genesis
"When Yako died, a statue of him was erected in the center of Solaro. He decided to pass when nature intended. Hours before he passed, he wrote a message to us all: ""Everyone - Please forever use your imagination. I don't doubt that you will. Continue to learn and build, write and sing. Be creative everyday. Inspire and encourage each other. Make your primary goal to find out who you are. Embrace yourself. Forgive yourself. Learn from your poor decisions. Love yourself. Process the past but do not dwell on it. Learn from the past and then do things that make you love yourself more. We do not know how much time we will have, but it is the quality of our time that matters most, how we use our time to enable positive change and empower others to do the same. We are all in this together and we always will be. And so I leave you with a single address for which the private key is lost. This address will set the foundation for the Solaro Museum. If you wish to create artwork, music, software, animation, games, sculpture, poems, stories, or anything of any creative form that you feel is an expression of who you are and what you stand for, please consider contributing your creation to the Solaro Museum, an endless collection representing us all. Together we march through time as wondering souls, seeking to understand ourselves."
