Boundless Journey

A lot has been said about the future of URU, age creation, and Cyan Worlds. Some say that URU is dead, that there will be no future for it. Others say that it is the responsibility of the fans to take over cyan's work - setting up our own shards and servers.

On the surface URU appears to be dead. Even in MOULa the number of familiar faces is dwindling. Those who still stick around have grown bitter and spread their despair through a community starving for anything new and exciting.

However, URU is not dead. In fact, it is full of potential that has only just begun to be reached. Since the formation of the guilds, the guild of writers has been growing in members, technology, and ages. As time goes by more and more ages are produced.

When D'ni was first discovered, we looked at the potential beyond the blockades. We longed for the beauty beyond Eder Gira's waterfall. However when areas were opened, there was always another barrier to hold us back. URU is not dead, and those barriers no longer block our way. Ordinary explorers with a vision can write worlds of stunning beauty.

One example of the unbound potential of the guild is the recent release of Adrael. Adrael is large scale age project that was recently released. It's puzzles are not too different from cyan's, and the storyline is amazing. It shows the true potential of what fan ages can be. Ages such as these grow in quality and quantity and rival many of cyan's. In essence, we have ahead of us a boundless journey that has only just begun.
