Aftermath of the Storm

The Coming Storm destroyed Paragon City without fanfare on November 30, 2012.

My existence is nothing but blackness. The world is no longer. There is only a void. Our memories are all we have. The Ouroboros Portal will continue to exist, if anyone shall stumble through this blackness to us. We will continue to document our world and our stories, such as they were before the dark descended upon us. This kind of life is nothing but a struggle, but we will persevere. If the world should return to us, we will be ready and waiting to continue our work. We are heroes (and villains) - this is what we do.

The Coming Storm!

The Coming Storm may just be arriving sooner than any could have expected!

Mender Silos and the rest of the Menders have long sought to delay, destroy or otherwise disrupt the Coming Storm, and failing that, to defend the Earth from it's menace. It has come to our attention that the Storm has made an unexpected advancement! How this change escaped our notice until now is a mystery, even to Silos himself. What matters, is that the multiverse as we know it may soon be destroyed completely, and with the Coming Storm having advanced as it has, there is but one thing we can do to stop it! If that initiative fails... well... I don't like to contemplate the alternative.

Now more than ever, as historian to the Menders of Ouroboros, it is imperative that you assist in my efforts to log your activities. Should the storm come, I have made preparations to maintain this log outside of time itself, so that someone may yet learn from our struggles.

It has been my privilege to catalog the happenings of this universe (and others) we call home. Let us hope that this is not the end, and that I, Mender Quist, can still catalog events after the projected date of destruction: November 30th, 2012.

Continuing on Our Course

I, Mender Quist, wanted to make sure to announce a few aesthetic sprucings up that you, seeker, may have noticed on our main page. This page has been given a color scheme more complimentary to my fellow Menders, as well as making its design a bit more similar to that of the Paragon Wiki.

Further, oh seeker of knowledge, I implore you to continue to add information to the repository, being sure to follow the article guidelines and make any suggestions you may think of on the forum. As a representative of the Menders and official historian, I am glad that we can continue on our course toward comprehensive knowledge of that which has (and will) occur in our world.

My excitement when browsing these many pages is truly great, it has saved me a good deal of time... as it were. Thank you, again, one and all.
