Snow Phoenix and the Slumbering Dragon

the world's creator, awakened by madness

Overview

At the edge of anyone's memory, there was a fight between the Titans of the world, ravaging the planet and returning it to the oceans. One of them, Valkyrie, ended up victorious, and stabbed her sword into the seabeds of the nascent world, forming new landmasses for the people and creatures of the world.

Details

Like the other Arcadian Odyssey worlds, this world, known as Valkyrie, is metatextually a video game. While the corruption cascade begins in Snow Phoenix, Professor Peppersen visits this world, and brings the cascade with him, telling what he discovered to a poltergeist named Marzipan.

The Titan's life force imbued the entire world with æther, ultimately resulting in many sapient species. It's thought that elsewhere, other Titans exist, but none who have sailed from the coasts of what is known as Valkyrie have found such locations.
