Welcome to Vivarium, a world between planes! No one is sure where this world exists nor in what era, but it has already ended up heavily populated by an array of creatures. Are you ready to “wake” in the world of Vivarium and explore its mysterious existence?

A forested island clings near the northern coastline where it is said that a dragon once rose from the sea to hail embers and ash upon the earth, but fell into a deep sleep within the cold volcano as the north seemed to quell its fire. Life still managed to flourish from the ashes of its despair, however, creating a lush and habitable environment for many plants and animals to thrive upon.

His night had been eventful. Filled with things he hadn't expected, bright things that might blossom into something more. Who knew? Not him that was for sure, but the moon had risen high in the sky as he wandered towards his home, tired and feeling hazy.
He wandered into a field and he was met with fireflies, they flew into the air and scattered around his large body, illuminating his orange form with a glow that made him seem near ethereal. Blinking pumpkins he scanned the field and noticed another he'd never met before.
Thor tilted his head towards the sky and sniffed a few times, noting they smelled like mountains he approached her with a gentle chuff. Stopping a few feet away the male waved his tail in a friendly manner. Hyvää Iltaa...(Good Evening...) He greeted her with a small smile and a dip of his head to her.

She greeted him back with a Good night and he chuckled, noting that it was indeed night and no longer evening. Night... It sure is... He chuckled again and rolled his shoulder's a little. She questioned whether he had come to see the fireflies and Thorvald shook his head slowly, the large cranium moving back and forth in answer, Ei(No)... I was just coming to pass through and saw them from a distance. It is quite beautiful here... He noted as he looked around and gazed off here and there to admire the beauty of the night and all its wonders coming to life.
He wondered if there was a way to capture these beings... Then suddenly he was transported backwards in time almost, his gaze becoming a little far off as he suddenly remembered children with jars filled with lights, the skies lighting with blinking glows like embers. A sigh escaped his nose as he shook his head a little as if to come back into himself and smiled again warmly down at the smaller wolf. Have you? He asked after a moment of silence due to his flashback.

Remembering an earlier conversation he had with Tyr, where he mentioned a woman in the mountain who talked about stars, he chuckled again, a warm sound and nodded. Ah yes, Tyr mentioned you... It is nice to meet you, I am Thorvald... I... Am not an astrologer... But I do enjoy the stars... He dipped his head a little and sighed. They are beautiful things, great things that we can learn from, stories for the young... He mused, I Live in the forests off over that way... He explained and jerked his head lightly off towards the direction he was headed.
I try to stay in touch with the pack happenings but... I have been caught in my own world... I need to stay on top of things better... He mumbled, a little ashamed of himself for the lack of information he could give the woman. We had a hunt for the festival... Which was quite lovely if I do say so... He was able to explain that, it was something he knew for he arrived for the hunt and had visited the cairns for the festival.

He chuckled again at her words of anything good or an exaggeration and he simply shrugged, leaving it at that, he would tell her if she pried but it was simply not enough to really bother with. She questioned whether of not he was a god and Thor shook his head, Ei, simply a Norseman in... Quite a strange place... He commented. The way the man had been thrust into this world was surely a rude way and he wasn't looking forward to having to do that again anytime soon... He hoped that was his only entrance into another world he'd be making... Though he didn't plan on dying anytime soon.
Steren explained that she watched the festivities from a distance and wasn't much of a people person. Living alone and studying. Ah... I have never been a man for books or studies... I am no
Typerys(Fool) but I am not a man of studies... Thor explained, rolling his shoulders and pulling himself up a bit. What might I ask do you study up there...? He questioned, flicking his nose and pointing it towards where she said she laid her head.

Suddenly, as if excited, she lit up. Her ears going erect and her tail swishing behind her haunches back and forth to mirror her excitement. Suddenly she busrt out that she studied the stars and went on to explain the things about them. That they were different here, some were new, some in the wrong places, and Thorvald nodded, listening to her with a nod here and there.
She mentioned it was difficult to map them without hands and Thorvald sighed, nodding with understanding. He too had noticed how hard it had been to do things without paws, simple things like hunting and scratching an itch behind the legs.. She explained that they weren't great for drawing and he held his comment till the end of her rambling.
She mentioned that she was trying to use rocks to carve into stone and he tilted his head in curiousity. Then she explained herbalism was her next venture.
Well, many things are difficult without hands... One can't scratch an itch easily anymore... Drawing isn't even the half of it... He agreed before moving on, I would like to see your maps sometime, they sound quite interesting... And herbalism? Not my cup of tea... I could teach you the ways of hunting... Could have... Now it seems I just squish them with my fat Perse(Ass) He laughed deeply, the sound coming from his belly as he tossed his head back as if amused by himself.
