Quoted By:
At the end of our people's sixth age, with the passing of the second Rex and the time of the third Rex, our society has grown. Cultural values, religion, government, traditions, rites, the formation of laws and more have turned us from a simple folk into a true civilization. Our people look to the future with determination; every problem we have faced, we have overcome, and that is something to be proud of.
We now begin the 7th Age.

Our population as of this age:
1708 Children
1030 Hunters
902 Gatherers
25 Warrior-Priests
10 Seers
25 Sylvians
13 Half-Sylvians
1 Rex
Our random events for this age:
1) A group of powerful-looking bronze-skinned half-elven warriors has arrived from the southeast. They are muscular, barbaric-looking men clad in animal hides and warpaint, carrying weapons more refined than your own (the tech of Bladed Tools). They claim to represent the Barbarian King, the Strongest, the One-Above-Chiefs, he who brought together the eight clans and rules over them all. They worship the Warlord, a barbarian god of strength, whom they claim is the ancestor of their Barbarian King. If you do not pay tribute in the form of a tithe of food, hides and women each month, their barbarian army will come here and take it along with many of your lives.
2) A holiday in the form of a festival celebrating the friendship and unity of both our people and the sylvians is put into place. It commemorates our first meeting, the love between their daughter and the First Rex, and celebrates unions between the two races. As a side-effect, the number of half-sylvians this age increases from four to thirteen (already reflected above).
3) Your people have discovered a temple to the north, at the absolute northernmost tip of the swamp, covered in the iconography of snakes. Within this temple, your people are awed to discover none other than the great red serpent who appeared to your people in the first age! The large red snake is, however, in the process of dying, unable to move or eat, and is too weak to even so much as speak. Its scales have lost their luster, and its eyes have gone dim. It seems to be on its very last legs (so to speak, being a snake and all).
What is your reaction to these events?
