I needed something to carry 4~~5 Atlantean 'High Elves' across a blighted land in reasonable style. Something between QE's 'Royal Barge' and a Pharaonic Nile barge, with a dash of 'Crystal Fu'. Something that would have to land if wind shifted from SW to blow volcanic fug from SE, from what we'd call 'Eifel Region'...
Yeah, way back when, their ancestors over-fracked the culture's declining geo-thermal tap and that region 'Went Large'. Oops. Some survivors fled through their 'WorldGates' with portable Alt-Tech, arrived in our 'High Bronze Age'. Were thought Demi-Gods & Genii until their widgets failed. An attempt to recharge such blew Thera apart. Minoan survivors of its tsunami got fluorosis, were a push-over for the Sea Peoples...
Back home, some Atlanteans had hunkered down in caves and sheltered valleys, generally became in-bred, degenerate. Others clung to the storm-cleansed Western shores, spawning Celtic Myths & Legends of the Faye...
