The Waking Titan

Tremors and earthquakes are felt throughout all the world of Terria, although minor, most people go on with their daily lives. The citizens of the City-State of Umar are preparing for their biggest festival of the year, the Umar Harvest fest. Attracting hordes of travelers from the many different city-states and even as far as from the world of The World of Ianna.
Many people gathered in the Craftsmen Alley for the lottery. The guilds had provided wonders up for grabs. If only you were lucky enough to win one. Trinkets and artifacts from far away lands, some might even be of a magical nature. Most wanted to win the price of gold or gain a deed to start their own business or farm.
But all the Harvest fest's reveling came to a rumbling halt when disaster struck! A massive earthquake shook the city, and large stone spikes rose out of the ground reaching to the sky. Large fissures opened all over the city. Strange earth-like creatures crawled out of the cracks and started harassing the local populace, and problems arise in the Vines district. A massive rift had cut off the entire area from the rest of the city, forestalling any direct aid from the guards.
Are the players ready to fight for your lives against the otherworldly invasion from beneath the earth? Can they find safe shelter and piece together enough information to puzzle out what is causing these earthquakes? And can they figure out the origin of these earth-like creatures that now roam the city? Can they even get out alive...?
