Helmont Ruins

The  is the name of the ruins near Helmont and the Village near Helmont that the Crimson Vow rescues the Investigation Team from. The ruins were initially believed to have been from the Antiquated Lands but it is later revealed that they are from the a later era where people deified people from the Antiquated Lands.

Within the ruins there was a room that seemed to have been a great hall. The walls of this dome-like room were covered murals made out of tile-work. The tiles were a myriad of colored stones and painstaking thought as to how to bring them together. They were the products of labor that took unthinkable amounts of time and effort.

The murals depict strange vegetation growing in clumps, fish and jellyfish showing the bottom of the sea. Then there was images of humans, elves, dwarves, beastpeople, and demons all existing in harmony with a draconic form similar to an elder dragon beside them. There are also various other scenes in the mural of other life forms and unidentifiable things, all crafted from stones in countless hues.

Mile also noticed rows of crowded skyscrapers, spaceships in ascension, flying cars passing one another in the air, humans dressed in researchers’ garb, members of other races, ranging from infancy to childhood, and a small dragon, looking like nothing so much as a pet dog. To the others, this all looked like a fantasy, while Mile realizes that the mural is showing what the past looked like.
