The World Kept Turning Hub

Magic is dead.

No one knows how or why it happened. All that matters is that the anomalous is no more. For some it went out with a bang, but for many, it went out with nary a whisper. What is everyone to do but pick up the pieces?

After all, the world keeps turning.

What is this?

Hello and welcome to this little series/canon of mine, which I have named "The World Kept Turning".

In this canon, there are only two rules:

1. Quiet Days is canon,¹ and happened at some point around 2024.
2. The world carries on.

How to write

As previously mentioned, this canon's two main rules are that Quiet Days happened, and the world carries on.

What does this mean? It is a way to explore the consequences of the anomalous disappearing.

Want to write about characters reacting to their now mundane lives? Cool. Want to write about the dying days of GoIs/the Foundation? Also cool. Want to write about how all the nexi and free ports disappeared? Absolutely. Want to write about what happens to anomalous humanoids in containment? Feel free.

How it happened doesn't really matter. All that matters is that it happened, and life goes on.

The general vibes of this canon are somber and contemplative, so if that's not your jam, that's fine. But if it is, feel free to contribute. If you want to make your page greyscale like this one and the original series, put the following code into your sandbox:

[[module css]]
#extra-div-6 {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0; left: 0;
    width: 100%; height: 100%;
    -webkit-backdrop-filter: grayscale(100%);
    backdrop-filter: grayscale(100%);
    z-index: 11;
    pointer-events: none;
}
[[/module]]

If you want to make links stand out, you should underline and bold them, which you should know how to do already.
