For options 1 and 2, you should read the following introduction to your players to familiarize themselves with the world of Thylea.
Thylea is a forgotten land shaped by ancient powers. Its forests are haunted by dryads, its plains ruled by centaurs, and its seas claimed by the Titans. Mortals arrived only five centuries ago, building three kingdoms under the protection of the Five Gods. For five hundred years, a sacred oath has kept the Titans from destroying the mortal races. That oath is now ending. Storms rise. Monsters stir. Prophecies speak of doom. The time and manner of your arrival in Thylea marked you as the heroes named in the Oracle’s prophecy. Your actions will decide the fate of Thylea.
At this point, you should provide your players with the Thylea World Primer (see appendix E).
