War of the Ancients
The War of the Ancients was a major conflict which constituted the first coming of the demonic horde to Toriel In 4956 BD. One of the largest and most costly wars in Toriel's history, the War of the Ancients influenced the fate of all life on the planet for millennia to come.
Corellon finally managed to open a portal to the feywild for his kind to get in Toriel, telling them about his mistake. And thus, the first elves became warriors against the legion of demons, fighting alongside the dragons. During the War of the Ancients, Achille, a human hero fought the demons too, holding one despite the relentless assault of the abyssal monster, uniting mankind as allies of the elves against the demon.
The demons, in their endless quest for conquest and battle, were pouring onto Toriel with an unstoppable bloodlust. It was also the first time the mortal started to fight together against a common threat, knowing they stand little to no chance against the abyssal horde, they fought for their survival anyway.
The dragon, as mighty as they were, lacked the strength to entirely stop the demonic army, and more of the land was corrupted with each year passing by.
When the Demons entered Toriel during the War of the Ancients, Neltharion saw the opportunity to complete his Dragon Soul. He first captured demons and added their powers to the Dragon Soul.
The dragon god congregated at the lair of Alexstrasza to discuss the coming invasion and what part they should play in defending the world. Neltharion proposed that to end the invasion of demons, the dragon gods should create a weapon with which they could eradicate the demon armies.
Neltharion then convinced Malygos to help him with the other Dragon Gods. All the dragon god contributed a bit of their power in creating the dragon soul with the exception of Neltharion. Through the disk, Neltharion was able to magically take control of all other dragons including the other four dragon gods.
The dragon gods and their dragon kind flew toward the demon armies. The dragons awaited Neltharion's first attack. He grabbed the Dragon Soul and by channeling his destructive power through it destroyed thousands of demons with one swing of radiant magic. The dragon gods watched in horror as Neltharion also killed some of their kind and other allies along with the demons.
Neltharion revealed the depths of his betrayal at last. Now with the disc at his command, he wanted all races and the demons to see his power and to bow to him.
The dragon gods tried to stop Neltharion. Silver dragons surrounded Neltharion in an attempt to take the Demon Soul from him. With a single command, they were engulfed by the magic of the Dragon Soul and were pulverized. Malygos was also terribly injured, both mentally and physically.
A swing of the Dragon Soul paralyzed all dragons and the dragon gods in mid-air, rendering them unable to move or speak. Neltharion then struck out at the dragon gods, scattering them far across the land. With the help of this power, he captured Alexstrasza.
Neltharion's betrayal struck a great blow to the Gods, and their fear of being destroyed or captured like Alexstrasza kept them in seclusion. In desperation, the Dragon Gods shielded themselves and hid to become undetected even by each other.
Alexstrasza endured years of captivity under Neltharion's tyrannical rule, serving as his unwilling slave. However, the demons succeeded in stealing the dragon soul from Neltharion's hoard. In a desperate bid to distract the demons and reclaim the artifact, Neltharion devised a plan to relocate Alexstrasza, intending to subject her to further torment once the artifact was recovered.
Fortunately, intervention from the other dragon gods led to Alexstrasza's liberation. Additionally, the dragon soul was wrested from both the demons and Neltharion by Nozdormu. As a result, the demonic armies were swiftly defeated.
Similarly, Alexstrasza, god of Life, took notice of the humanoid who fight alongside the dragon, believing the weak mortal should be educated, Some of her fellow dragon began to argue believing that these new people were dangerous and should be destroyed, while others of Alexstrasza's ilk felt they should be educated to teach them right from wrong.
