Uarehere
Background;
Part 1: Building the Fleet and Gathering Followers
The year was 1804, and Uarehere, a man of unwavering faith, had been visited by a dream in which he saw a land promised to him by God. He believed that this land existed in the parallel dimension beyond the portals that had recently opened across the world's oceans, and he felt called to embark on a journey to find it.
Uarehere soon gathered a small group of like-minded individuals to join him on his quest. They set to work building a fleet of ships, using whatever materials they could find. It was a ramshackle collection of vessels, far from the grand ships that other nations were using to explore the parallel worlds. But Uarehere felt that their faith would guide them safely through whatever trials they might face.
The journey to the portal was long and arduous, taking them weeks over the open sea. They faced storms and high waves, and many of the crew became seasick and despondent. But Uarehere remained steadfast, preaching to his followers and reminding them of the glory that awaited them in the parallel world.
Finally, they reached the portal, a shimmering vortex of energy that hummed with otherworldly power. Uarehere led his small fleet through the portal, and they emerged in a world that was at once familiar and strange.
The ocean was a different shade of blue, more similar to grey, and the stars were arranged differently in the night sky. Uarehere felt a surge of excitement in his chest, knowing that they were now one step closer to the land that had been promised to him.
As they sailed through this new world, they encountered other ships from different nations, all eager to claim the resources of this parallel world for their own. Some of these adventurers were intrigued by Uarehere's faith and joined him, swelling his ranks with fresh believers.
But there were also those who scoffed at his beliefs, calling him a fool and a madman for putting his faith in a dream. Uarehere remained steadfast, preaching to his followers and welcoming those who saw the truth in his words.
Their journey had only just begun, but Uarehere knew that they were on the right path. He could feel the guiding hand of God leading them towards their destiny, and he was confident that they would prevail against whatever obstacles lay ahead.
Part 2: Exploration of a Great Archipelago
As Uarehere and his small fleet sailed deeper into the parallel world, they soon came across a great archipelago. The islands were lush and vibrant, with towering trees and winding rivers. Uarehere felt a sense of awe at the beauty of this new land, and he knew that they were getting closer to their goal.
But with this beauty came danger. The archipelago was home to many dangerous creatures, some of which were larger and fiercer than any they had ever seen. They also encountered other small groups of settlers and indigenous peoples, some of whom were friendly and eager to trade. Many, though, were hostile and taken by greed.
Despite the risks, Uarehere led his followers through the archipelago, preaching to them about the power of faith and the importance of staying true to their beliefs. His charisma and conviction won over many of those they encountered, and soon his fleet grew larger with new converts.
But the journey was not without its difficulties. The ships often encountered strong currents and unpredictable weather, and many of the crew suffered from hunger and thirst. Several ships were lost to the ocean, and many of Uarehere's followers perished in the harsh conditions.
Through it all, Uarehere remained steadfast in his faith. Alongside him were Setsuko and Moody Mullen, never wavered in their loyalty and quickly becoming favored. They stood by him through every challenge, helping to inspire the other members of the fleet with their unwavering commitment.
As they journeyed deeper into the archipelago, they began to notice strange signs and portents. Unusual weather patterns, strange sightings on the horizon, and whispers of strange phenomena began to circulate among the crew. But Uarehere refused to be daunted, and he urged his followers to press on.
