Master

The survivors of the old reality, better known now as The Old Gods, make an alliance with The Outer Gods that have existed since before all things to lay the foundation of the new reality.

After the formation of reality and the sacrifice of Atlas, The Ineffable, The Outer Gods seal away their home, The Dark Tapestry, away from the larger Great Beyond forming after the Beginning of Reality, hiding it away in the space "between" the stars and reality and sequestering themselves away within it rather than prey upon the infant reality, possibly as part of a deal made with The Old Gods.

Shortly after his formation, Molt, First of the Dead and Father Time takes up his mighty scythe and, to herald his own creation, divides the expansive and comingled Great Beyond into many seperated planes, an inner and outer sphere, and gave concrete shape to reality as well as defined its borders and dimensions. As his final action, he shunted the last free-drifting remains into the space between these Inner and Outer Spheres he had made, creating The Transitive Planes out of the last of the primordial soup and the last free remnants of Atlas's essence.

After their creation of the High Vampires which they deemed as failures, The Old Gods realized the failure in their original design and turn their attention to the creations of the new gods, giving The Primordial Races the ability to make more lives themselves and thus reproduce, though in doing so made them mortal(Except the High Elves, who retained their original immortal essence) and fallible.

The Allfather sets to work upon his Anvil of Creation and begins to forge the elements, minerals, ores, and fundamental facets and assets of The Planescape, forging them all in the span of a week and seeding the entire Planescape with them, burying them in all places underground, in the soil, and in dozens and dozens of other places...and in doing so, gives primordial life the first building blocks it needs to expand.

With the help of The Old Gods and the High Vampires, Primordial Life throws off the shackles of the New Gods and gains independence and freedom from the control of those who made them, thus touching off The Rapture War.

Primordial Life looks to the stars, and many journey out into The Great Beyond to see what lies beyond the Outer Sphere.

The expedition sent into The Outer Sphere long ago returns to this reality, corrupted beyond all recognition and twisted into something most unholy as they bring with them a terrible god of destruction from the great beyond...

The Third Primordial Ingsungr and his new wife band together to create their first children, the Titans. Given shards of their awesome primordial power, these children were mighty things behind comprehension, but were considered failures due to their small numbers and inability to truly reproduce.

After the creation of the Titans, the Third Primordial gives birth to a new form of life, one much smaller but which still carries the same primordial spark inside of them that promises them greatness...due to his own male-centric beliefs he creates them as an all-male race despite the wishes of his wife. They are considered successful children, and his most mighty creations.

After a vision given to her by Atlas, The Ineffable himself, Lolth, The Spider Queen uses her power to become a conduit for the Overdeity's might to weave The Web and bind all creatures to the fate the strands of The Web dictate.

The Wife of the Third Primordial tricks her husband into allowing female giants to be born by infusing one of her children with a vast amount of primordial essence, and hiding one away from him until it reaches adulthood and proves superior to his own male giants.

The ancestral Dwarven home of Nolrogh, carved for them by Dwulvor the Deathless and the High Dwarves millennia before, undergoes some unknown catastrophe and is lost to the Dwarves. Forced to travel to the surface to escape extinction, they begin a journey so long that they forget the very location and memories of their ancestral homeland.

The Betrayal of Lolth ends in failure, and as a punishment for her attempted murder and destruction of her husband and the betrayal she had committed she was stripped of her former name, given the name Lolth, and then exiled into the lands far beneath the ground along with the rest of the corrupted who followed her.

After abandoning and exiling his original wife long ago due to her trickery of him into accepting females and the creation of the Dai-Yukai, the Third Primordial created himself a new wife with whom he had hundreds of children, each an attempt to recreate the perfection of the Jotun but none turning out truly successful...instead, the myriad true giants and Giantkin were birthed and spread across The Planescape.

After his exile and humiliation at the hands of his wife, the Third Primordial vanishes from the Planescape and leaves forever, splitting into two seperate and distinct oceanic gods to manage most of what he once did as a god.

Driders are created by High Humanity as heavy-duty front-line shock troops using the bodies of their fallen enemies.

Not long after ascending into the skies, The Aurelian Hegemony of Man successfully finishes a crusade to unite the entire surface beneath their banner.

Having been nothing more than a scattered and disparate people, nothing more than a tribal, nomadic people living in the most dangerous or desolate locales of the world, the High Lamia begin to unite beneath the banner of a figure named The Scalequeen, who promises them unity, power, and freedom the continued attempts to subjugate them by The Aurelian Hegemony of Man.   Their rallying mostly is ignored by the civilized world and by the Hegemony, who recognize it but choose to do nothing about them, seeing the uniting of the High Lamia as something not worth their attention. As they begin to unite into one titanic Supertribe, they begin to grow bolder by the day.

So bold they now border on arrogance and haughtiness, the High Lamia spit in the face of repeated demands made by The Aurelian Hegemony of Man and the people of the world and successfully launch a campaign against the entire northern continent, devouring almost every sentient creature who lived there and enslaving the survivors and placing them into sprawling meat farms for them to consume at their whims.   Out of a desire to avoid another world-spanning war or calamity, The Aurelian Hegemony of Man and the surface races refuse to retaliate against the High Lamia and do not punish them for their actions, merely issuing a warning against further threats.

The High Lamia threaten the world with a mass invasion and world war unless The Aurelian Hegemony of Man capitulates to their demands and gives them an entire section of the continent for them to roam and hunt freely within, free of law or binding as a sort of seperate nation-state.   Still fearing the advent of another world war and the suffering it would bring so fresh after The Lost Ages, the Hegemony reluctantly agrees to their terms and signs away a large portion of their surface holdings to the High Lamia for the sake of maintaining a larger world peace.

Having founded a continent-spanning empire and kicked The Aurelian Hegemony of Man off of the surface, the Aenorian Empire enters a golden age of progress and unchallenged dominance, leading to an explosion of growth in the sciences, war, and all fields of their civilization.

The High Humans of The Aurelian Hegemony of Man reveal their plan and desire to free the world from the grip of the High Lamia.

At the height of the Scalewars, in the final hours of the final conflict which will see to the destruction of the Scalequeen and the Aenorian Empire, The Aurelian Hegemony of Man is betrayed as the surface races turn against them for reasons unknown, turning the tide of the war overnight.

Led by the High Lamia Princesses, the Aenorian Armies outmaneuver and obliterate the remaining armies of the Hegemony in a brilliant battle at the Saccharine Fields, crushing the greatest hope the surface had at freedom and breaking the Hegemony's attempt to destroy them.

After claiming total dominance over the surface once more and breaking all resistance out of the surface races, the High Lamia begin exterminating all religions except those that praise the Scalequeen and a rare few others gods, leading to the deaths of dozens of organized religions across the world.

With their mastery of genetics and the sciences, scientists of the Aenorian Empire experiment on their ancient foe the High Orcs and successfully destablize their genetic code, ensuring a slow and gradual devolution of the entire species over a long period and ensuring the elimination of their higher thought processes.

After their short and brutal war to conquer The Aurelian Hegemony of Man, the High Lamia successful break the backs of their most ancient foe as The Scalequeen, proving her invincibility yet again, devours the ruling council of Magister Lords that govern the Hegemony in a feast broadcast around their empire as she declares The Aurelian Hegemony of Man a vassal state of the Aenorian Empire.

With nearly all living creatures on Ea biologically enslaved to them through the power of the Mindwash Tower, the High Lamia Princesses follow their mother into Godhood after devouring untold millions.

The High Lamia create the Dragonborn to serve as their mates, advisors, and most trusted aides and lieutenants...an act that draws the ire of the Ancient Dragons and begins to erode their neutrality.

With the Scalequeen beaten bloody by The Dragon Emperor, all life held beneath the yoke of the High Lamia rebels, no longer fearing the High Lamia nor their Scalequeen more than they do death or torture. With steely resolve, small pockets of rebels free of the mindwash tower begin to form.

Leading the charge against The Aenorian Empire, the Ancient Dragons form an alliance with the surface races of the world, namely those of the Elves, the Orcs, the Humans, and the Dwarves, with dozens of other races supporting these five central pillars. With the entire world united for the first time in memory, the entire surface world vows to destroy the High Lamia.

Several years after the fall of the Aenorian Empire, the relationship between the all the races of Ea begins to sour as they begin to blame one another for allowing the High Lamia to become so powerful. The Hegemony is blamed for abandoning the surface, the surface is blamed for abandoning the Hegemony, and all begin to grow hateful and suspicious of one another.

During their expansion, the armies of the Hegemony are met at the large surface town of Salchin by a horde of unarmed surface races, peacefully protesting their expansion. After a very tense few days, the Hegemony leaves Salchin and moves on, almost attacking but halting at the last second. With this, tensions only rise further between the Hegemony and the surface.

After the dissolution of the alliance they heralded the founding of, the Ancient Dragons, led by the Dragon Emperor, annoyed with mortal hubris that led to the alliance's dissolution, found a nation on the surface where Dragons and those willing to live alongside them(and pay the appropriate fees and taxes) can live free of the Hegemony or other surface races.

Some time after they began to re-expand their empire, The Aurelian Hegemony of Man officially returns to its old imperialistic ways despite the protests of the surface races under the pretense of establishing a firm, united land that will never fall to such a threat as the High Lamia. Unlike during the Age of Rebirth, they will ensure ALL the world is under their sway, so as to prevent any such rises to power again, for the good of the world.   This only serves to further drive the surface races to hatred of them, and stoke the fires of growing calamity.

Unfased in the rising anger of the surface directed at them, the Hegemony continues its imperialism by beginning radical humanitarian campaigns to help the surface races, and despite their desires to not be helped the Hegemony forces their goodwill onto those they help regardless of their wishes.

The Aurelian Hegemony of Man launches a great crusade to finally crush and cleanse the most barbarous and vile places on the surface of Ea, with the goal of wiping out the last of the barbaric and uncivilized peoples in the world and force them into civilization...or crush them if they refuse.

After uniting almost all the known world beneath their banner once more during The Great Crusade, the Hegemony begins to become more cruel in their management of the surface for the sake of the greater good, citing it as their divine right after saving the world in ages past, and bringing civilization and culture to a barbaric world. The races of the world begin to resent them more and more, and begin discussing uniting against them and taking action, to prevent another calamity like the High Lamia.

Stoic in the face of the Hegemony's threat, the races of the world band together into a global alliance, founding the nation of Galdrada as a formal declaration of their unity and desire to never again bow to the Hegemony, or any other power's wishes. They found it to give all creatures a utopia to live freely and in peace.

This period of time has been lost to history, as during this time all historical records simply vanish, as if nothing happened or time stopped for nearly four decades. It is a great mystery to modern scholars that remains unsolved.

Seeing no other option, the races of the world make plans and alliances in secret, led by the Ancient Dragons and the Dragon Emperor, to rise up and destroy the Hegemony and High Humanity once and for all for the good of the world. With the firing of the ETHERION cannon, all races stand united in opposition to their fathomless evil.

An event which marked the rise of the Minor Goddess Kosm into a God to rival even the Primordial gods themselves.

A schism that ruptured the very concept of the newly empowered Goddess Kosm, and led to the birth of Kos as a Major Deity.
