The First Chapter of History
As described in S1E7 - The Ivory Library
The world was new the Elements The earth and the sky the elements themselves comprised of four Earth Air Fire and Water. overtime elements worked together and created mixed para-elements between them magma, lightning, mud and steam. They were happy they've been found a clay that they were able to work with create gods to help them control their new world and bring life to it. these were the lion, the bear, the stone, The Thorn, and the skull. each of these new deities controls Nature's personality. the lion was proud just and good. the bear was good but yet follows no rules finding what is needed for the good of all. the stone was solid in it's Duty regardless of good or evil intention. The Thorn aims to try and find its power no matter who gets in the way. and the skull represents the chaotic free will of those dark entities required for balance.
For many moons they worked to build their world together. The 8 elements collected what was left of the clay of creation and made the plants and animals. Soon they brought their children in to help, bringing their own special balance of gifts to the individual creations.
The stone helped the masters build their form. Like the Anvil at a forge. The Bear helped the fire heat and harden the clay, while the Thorn gave it desire. The Lion gave it courage while the Skull made sure it paid its toll with mortality.
Soon the Fey and many other creatures were born to help populate the land.
The Elements pondered about the last bit of clay they held, and how best to build creatures to help keep the balance and protect the land they all built together. They were opposed again. Soon younger para-elements began bickering with each other. Lightning struck out at the Mud in anger, the hot steam tried to cool the magma all to no avail. The elements retreated to think.
The first borns, as that is what we call the deities who were born to the elements first and above all else, thought as well. The bear and the lion thought they could make beings too after all they watched the elements closely and were sure they could do it to help. The Thorn and the skull said they too could help make these creatures after all they were all part of the balance.
The Stone said it would not be any part of it. So the remaining first borns had to improvise without the anvil they had seen before. They fought over what elements to include, and what's the form should be that they would take. they wanted to honor their makers so the form took the shape of wings represent the air, fire Within the belly itself, water and earth combined together to make fluid form that can fly. Thus came the first dragons.
The first dragons looked in many ways like you and I. As they became stronger their form became more apparent looking like great opalescent reptiles with shimmering metallic and rainbow hues glinting off their scales.
The master elements were furious. They looked at the clay and there was only enough for one more creature. They turned to the faithful stone and offered it to them. They looked over the gift and judged. They too would make a dragon but not like thier siblings. They would make a stone, not a serpent. They would use water for a blanket not the air as a tool to fly. They had no need for wings, they handed the extra clay back and made a Dragon Turtle.
The elements nodded in approval.
The elements went on to use the clay to make the people as they came to be called. The people when placed in their regions adapted and took on forms to assist in the lands they were sworn to protect and serve. The first born as before placed their gifts into each one of them.
Those in the mountains seeking Treasures in the earth became the Dwarves.
Those in the swamps slowly became the Orcs immune to the harsh poisons
Those in the plains became humans
Those in the forest became the elves dancing with the fey
Those in the tundra became The Lost Ones
Those in the desert became the halflings, hiding in the smallest of shade
And those of the oceans became the merfolk.
The elements and the first born looked and were happy at what they created.
