Evolution of Ancient Myths Across Continents | Tor.com





Psychologist Carl Jung believed that many cultures across the globe produced similar myths due to a sort of unified subconscious, the idea that deep down in our collective psyche, we all embraced the same symbols in an effort to explain the world. But what if it were far more simple than that? What if these linked myths merely migrated along with the people who told them? One scientist has provided strong evidence to that tune, piecing together a global mythic tapestry that is thousands of years in the making.

Myths of Khoralla Intro - Immersion Studios

Here's a short introduction to Myths of Khoralla, the epic fantasy setting currently in development by the mad minds behind Immersion Studios.
There are a number of themes we wanted to follow in this - for starters, not using the "traditional" fantasy races of Elves, Dwarves, etc., but instead creating our own, making them as realistic as possible, and not defined as an entire race as "Evil" or "Good" (people are who they are... the race on the other hand...).
Then there's gods, the power of gods, how their power works, and the balance of power that stops the champions and heroes of the world just wreaking havoc everywhere (well... they probably still will, but there has to be *some* balance to it!).
This is our intro, but there is more to come. Hope you like it :)
