Great Storm
The Great Storm. Perhaps the beings that rent the Umbra into a great tempest during the Wyrmcoming awakened, or perhaps something much worse.
Overview
The spirits carried tales of a great battle far to the east, where a dragon, a bird, and a tiger fought with an ancient evil. We never saw a prophecy about this, and the spirits were vague, but we understand that not only was the evil destroyed, but the battle claimed the lives of thousands of humans as well. While we are reluctant to guess as to what truly happened, many Talons the world over have asserted that Griffin came to Gaia in three forms - Sabertooth Tiger, Great Crane, and a third that we have never seen (dragons are supposed to the be creatures of the Wyrm, but perhaps that is not always the case). These Talons believe that the three-bodied Griffin struck down the evil being and the thousands of humans he would have used as an army. Some young Talons now wish to travel to these foreign lands and search the Umbra for any trace of Griffin and his mysterious "third body".
