TERA's Lead Writer David Noonan spoke to Jaime Skelton over at the Examiner to discuss the game's lore in a recent interview.
The official TERA site also shows the Island of Dawn on the map. What is this place, and how is it different from the two continents?
The Island of Dawn is the first mystery the players will face. A few months ago, an island rose out of the sea in a matter of moments—and it's a fully formed island with intact buildings and strange inhabitants. For the denizens of TERA, this is a mind-boggling concept, because it's the first time there's ever been a landmass that's not obviously Arun or Shara. An island that might not be connected to the creators of the universe? Many in TERA regard it as an omen of great events to come.
