Vernaia: The Seven Seeds
Overview
Vernaia follows the abandoned Earth left behind by Extropian expansion. Humanity’s cities have long since collapsed into overgrowth and ruin. Animals evolved intelligence through exposure to residual Extropian biotechnologies. Nature itself—wounded, aware, and suffocating—prepares a final remedy: the birth of seven perfect seeds destined to restore planetary balance.
Core Lore
Centuries after the Extropians departed, Earth became a wasteland of half-living ecosystems. Machine relics buried in soil leached mutagenic energy, granting flora and fauna sentience. When the biosphere began to fail entirely, the entity known as **Mother Verdana** [PLACEHOLDER] summoned every surviving species toward the Amazon Basin through migratory instinct. There, they discovered the **Tree of Memory**, a biomechanical relic that revealed the existence of the Seven Seeds— genetic repositories designed to restart evolution on each continent. The chosen carriers—lion, whale, raven, elephant, serpent, wolf, and human child— [PLACEHOLDER] set out to deliver the seeds, each journeying through a continent ruined by a different human sin: extraction, war, greed, vanity, hubris, neglect, and despair. [PLACEHOLDER]
