The Source of the Raynor Divide

[Andreas the Wise]

While it is true that in the century or so subsequent to the Plague the divide between the two cities was growing, it was solidified by the Great Plague appearing from a ship bound out of the Raynor Isles. Those in Libertopia blamed it on the bio-warfare of the Biotopians, and those in Biotopia blamed it on the dangerous arcane experiments of the Libertopians. Both also used their respective strongpoint to stay safe from the plague. From that day to this, they have feared the other as the bringer, even if inadvertently, of a great evil.
