Ark, The

The Ark was a marvelous invention of a gnome named Glorian Whisperspeaker. Due to his statistical "miscalculations", he predicted the fall of the world before the start of the Fifth Age, Current Age. While he predicted the Post-Apocalyptic Tethys, he was wrong that this would be the end as The Awakening of the World saved Tethys. His invention consisted of two parts: the Ark itself and the Nature. The Ark was a massive steamship, a marvel of that time, and by some it's impossible to recreate it. The ship was capable of sailing through the worst weather and survive without restocking for hundreds of years, the latter is questionable. The Nature was the idea Glorian came up with - as the gnomes of Quadropolis ventured from the city only to spy and gain information, it was impossible to gather pristine examples of nature, as well as he saw that it would be unwise to have living creatures as they can die and have a lot of needs, thus perfect imitations were made. These constructs acted exactly like their real counterparts and had their own rooms on the ship. It is unknown how many types of animals the ship had before it did its journey. When the catastrophe hit, the Ark sailed away, never to be seen again. Some say that its still sailing, while many speculate that it already sunk or crashed on some island.
