Chapter 0.1 : The age of creation

Before the Worlds and various Realms existed there was nothing. Then due to an unforeseen event occurring the five true G.o.ds were born. Their names have been long lost but they were the true G.o.d of Life, Death, Order, Chaos, Magic. At first in their lives they were confused and curious. After a while they got bored. All there was around them was an endless void. So they combined their powers to create the elements such as fire, wind, water and many others. For these elements they made the elemental realms. Each of the elements was different from each other and the true G.o.ds but they could interact together leading to different weathers and states occurring. So from this Ice, storms and hurricanes and freak events were born. After a while the first elements gained a kind of setinance. But only part of these were controlled by the sentant elements. They became known as the Primordial Spirits.

In time the True G.o.ds began to get born with the primordial elements. So they combined the powers for the last time and the words were created. The Primordial elements filled these worlds with the elements. This caused the worlds to be filled with the elements leading to all nature of occuancing. It leads to the Deserts forming, Jungles, Oceans and many other habitats forming. But the True G.o.ds still felt that the world was empty. So they created the dragons. They were a strong species but the species became arrogant. The species was also blessed by the primordial elements as well. This leads to the various species of Dragon to be born such as the Fire Dragon. The dragons who were blessed by the primordial elements had a great control over them. They became known as the True Dragons. They were then given a way of recording down their own knowledge by the True G.o.ds. This would become known as the Draconic Script.

But the True G.o.ds became unhappy with the power the Dragons possessed. So the G.o.ds were created. They were blessed with unending youth by the True G.o.d of Life and Death. The True G.o.d of magic taught them the use of the Arcane art of magic. The True G.o.d of order then showed them the art of writing but each of the clans of the G.o.ds created their slight differences in their way of writing. The True G.o.d of chaos however blessed or some say cursed them with emotions. This would eventually lead to the War of the G.o.ds. But before that each of the True G.o.ds made a race of people in their own image. So the elder races were born. The Eldar who are the ancestors of the various races of the Elves of today. Other notable elder races include the Dwarves, the lizard and cat peoples. Though the current races of them have long since detonated from the ancestor races becoming shadows of their former selves. These races were blessed by the various G.o.ds leading to them being taught different languages. All of these races were blessed by the true G.o.d of magic. This leads them to all be able to use magic in their own ways. So the mages were born.

In time more races began appearing such as the rat people, Green skinned people and many others. The last to come into being was the Human race. They were the weakest of all the races but had one advantage over all of the others. They were able to have mutated bloodlines which was combined with the elder races. This leads to the birth of half blood races. They were of a ma.s.sive variety. The most powerful was the dragon kin. Their power eventually led them to establish a ma.s.sive empire. But that is a story for another time.

The worlds now were filled with so much life and action the true G.o.ds could never get bored. What came after was much more terrifying. The True G.o.ds had finally realized that they had used too much of their power in the creation of the universe. So in a last act of defiance to save them from vanishing into the void. Then formed the G.o.d realm, the Under Realm and set up clear laws so no one could become too powerful. With the True G.o.ds gone. A war occurred between the G.o.d Clans and the various elder races occured to see who would become the new overlords of the universe. In the end there was no victor. All that was left was the destruction of most of the G.o.d clans leaving only two clans alive. The deterioration of the elder bloodlines or just those races being completely destroyed. The survivors were the only people who didn"t join the war. The Primordial spirits. They swore that if anyone were going to try and become the new overlord that the Primordial spirits and the other races would band together and stop that race. This was done to stop another war of that magnitude to occur.

This was the end of the age that became known as the age of creation.

Chapter 0.2: The age of the survivors also known as the golden age

Not Long after the end of the war the races realized that the portals that they used to go between each of the realms were disappearing. This led to ma.s.s panic among the survivors as they didnt want to be cut off from the places they were born and called home. So a group of talented mages from all of the races came forward to stabilize the portals. In the end they made what they called the tower of the void. It used an unknown energy which was able to keep the portals around but they could be active permanently but only activated when it was needed at a great use of this energy. This group eventually began to disappear over time. They only were remembered now as the void tower. A group that doesn"t interfere in the politics of the various worlds and realms.

A few centuries after this event the races had to rebuild their homes and civilisation. Then so began what would be known as the golden age. mIt was a time of great breakthroughs in magical knowledge with many theories being developed and expanded on. It was also the time of those who wielded Qi in battle. They began setting down rules and set up more structured ways to pa.s.s on what they knew to their inheritors. The mages eventually created the mage towers. They were numerous as mages ended up finding so many on so many different worlds. The most major ones were the Tower of the elements, the Tower the Arcane and the Tower of writing. Each focused on a different area of magic. The Qi wielders established the Sects. The most major of those was the War G.o.d Sect, Blades Sect and the Azure sect.

With those organisations being present the power of individuals began to rise. The more disjointed and separate races such as the humans began to unite as one power. The most powerful of the human empires that emerged was the Empire of the Sun. It was the strongest by far. It dominated its world where it was founded then began to spread out and expand to more worlds until it had around 18 worlds under it. This was until it began to collapse with the death of the last line of its imperial family. With the death of the last heir the various worlds declared independence and set up the Human council. Which was to the outside world one nation but to them it was a group of worlds that constantly fought each other for dominance.

As the age progressed a race of half human"s gained dominance. They were also half dragons. In the end the various clans formed an empire which was known as the Draconic Imperium. It was made up of mainly 5 great clans. And lots of lesser clans. Each clan excelled in certain areas. Such as the first clan being talented in soul arts, the second was talented in light magic, the third dark magic, the fourth was mainly made up of talented cultivators and the fifth clan was talented in killing and strategy making them excellent generals. As well as being part dragon they all had an affinity to fire in many forms. As they got stronger they learned that they had the ability to tame dragons and ride them into war

So the dragon riders were born. The empire was constantly growing on its world and gaining power. As the age ended and the age of blood began the empire had a ma.s.sive civil war that led to its collapse and the central area becoming uninhibited except by some resentments of other factions.

During the empire"s collapse the gate to the under realm opened letting forth its inhabitants the demons to come forth on multiple realms and worlds. They waged war on all that met so with the collapse of the empire the demons became the main inhabitants of the central area.

The Eldar ended up disappearing as their bloodline became weaker. The elves who were the eldar"s descendants became predominant. They were made up of a variety of races dark, high, wood, sea and many others. They divided into separate kingdoms. Each belonging to their respective races.

There one goal became to make themselves the eldar again.

As the age was coming to an end. The demons were swarming the worlds. The great human empires had collapsed or were undergoing devastating wars. Then something even worse happened: the portals between the worlds and various realms completely collapsed causing many people to be cut off and outposts left alone. People tried to find the void tower but they had completely disappeared. What happened next was worse without support from the other worlds the sects led their disciples to war. With their sacrifice the demons were forced back but all knowledge of cultivation was lost with them.

Chapter 0.3: The age of blood

This is an age of war, an age of slaughter.

With the knowledge of cultivation gone on the world. It lacked really strong warriors that led to the value of images increasing drastically and the use of bloodlines that enhance aspects of a person being valued as well.

In the beginning of the age lots of empires and kingdoms rose and fell in rapid succession

There was constant war with the demons to keep them at bay. In the central province of the destroyed draconic Imperium.

Now it is 257 years after the age began. The age of blood is only getting worse.
