Construction beginning/end

460

The first recorded historical event in human history. What "The Tower" was or even what it was called is a subject of debate today. Even if it ever happened is questioned today, but it is the first thing humans wrote down about themselves.


All human bases faiths have at least one myth about the Great Tower. In some it was the gods fortress in the mortal world. Others say it was the home of archdemons. But all agree on two things.   Firstly, its last owner was a figure now only recalled as the Masked Shaman. Who this person was is now lost to time. All we can say about him, or her for even that is debated, is that he had magic power. And if the tales and myths are to be believed more magic then any wizard that live today. Most also agree that the shaman was a evil person. Many tales talk about him giving his slaves to demons and eating the flesh of mortal men.   Second, a warrior slew the Masked Shaman. Some historians believe that the warrior was really a troop of warriors. But one thing is for sure. The warrior, or perhaps warriors, ended to rain of the Masked Shaman and freed his, or hers, slaves. The Imperatoria even claim to be the descendants of this legendary figures.
