The Human purge

In this realm, one of many, we are set upon by many rifts linking to the realm of darkness. This dire situation is enough to warrant the creation of the Elder Guard, a dedicated group of Aurkahl Mage Academy . These are the best and most gifted mages the academy has to offer. Alerted to a possible rift, they arrived at the first reported location only to find complete destruction of the human settlements. This was true of every single location. Any human that survived the encounter was marred by the encroaching darkness, turning them into cursed creatures that were ruled by the god of darkness. This imposing realm is the kingdom of darkness and seeks to infect all realms it encounters. It does so by enticing all it can into its corrupted version of power. Once it gains a foothold, it creates a rift in that location. The undead surge forth, decimating all the inhabitants and turning the slain into thralls to serve the god of darkness in his relentless march toward complete domination of all realms.
