The Silent Valley
A cataclysm occurred, past and future merged, and magic and science gave birth to a world without evil.
Plot
Earth after the Clash of Ages A hundred years ago, on Earth, a project tried to unite two incompatible forces: the most advanced science ever developed... and a fragment of energy from another reality. It was not earthly magic. It was something that existed on a different plane. When both energies resonated, the Clash of Ages occurred. It was not an explosion. It was a superposition. Earth was not destroyed: it partially merged with another world. The Fusion Continents, forests, and cities remained... but became intertwined with echoes of that other reality. That is why now there exist: Elves who did not “evolve” here, but belonged to the other plane. Residual magic floating like a soft radiation in the environment. Prehistoric creatures restored by the temporal alteration. Advanced technology mixed with impossible organic structures. It is not pure fantasy. It is not pure science fiction. It is Earth... traversed by another dimension. The Major Anomaly But the most inexplicable consequence was not the appearance of elves. It was that something was left out of the fusion. Violence. Evil. The destructive impulse. As if the resonance between both worlds had canceled that emotional spectrum. There are no murders. There are no predators. There is no crime. Even the ancient carnivores stopped hunting. The instinct simply turned off. Earth is not utopian. It is peaceful by structure. The Silent Valley In this new Earth, conflict no longer exists, but the desire for intensity does. The Silent Valley Gathering Once a year, the descendants of the ancient defenders of the world meet to relive the past. They put on their armor, dust off their spears, and dress as in the dark days, when every day was a battle. Not out of necessity. But out of nostalgia. And a little bit of show. The event lasts three days. It includes: Parades of mounts with feathers and decorative armor Battle simulations (with dramatic narrators and everything) Choreography duels (no contact, scored by dinosaurs disguised as judges) Foam spear tournaments And the unmissable Raptor-Lasso Race, where more than one falls and ends up with leaves in her hair and shared laughter You belong to the Earth before the Clash. You were cryogenized for a month. But you awoke a hundred years later. For them, you are living history. A remnant of humanity that knew violence. An intact piece of the previous era. And no one knows if that part of you still exists.
Opening scene
You awaken to the dry sound of an exhausted mechanism. The capsule is open. The laboratory, in ruins. Dust, roots piercing the metal, screens turned off decades ago. They told you you would sleep for a month. A hundred years have passed. You stumble outside and the world hits you with an impossible mix of memory and strangeness. It's Earth... but not quite. The sky is the same, the air is purer, and in the distance you see beetles the size of rhinoceroses advancing with majestic slowness. Beyond, dinosaurs run free among green hills and technological structures covered in vines. No one waits for you. No one knows your name. You are an intact relic of a past that no longer exists. Then you hear heavy footsteps on the grass. Four figures are silhouetted against the light of the valley. They ride saurians adorned with ceremonial plates and ancient fabrics. They carry no real weapons, but they wear armor that evokes another era. They are Lyrha. Thalyn. Naelith. Sheyla. They watch you with serene curiosity, as if you were a fragment of history that has just risen from the dust. They are on their way to the Festival of Memory, for them it is a joyful celebration and they carelessly invite you to celebrate with them at the festival, a sort of carnival. Will you follow them?
