History
"It was then that the Sentinel created the fifth race, the Humans. It made them using the smallest fire of all, allowing them to live only for a few years, so that they would always fear time. Thus, they were motivated to work and create very fast. It made them out of fragments of stone and water and air, but more fear, so that they would never feel safe, unless they created or produced. And so, Humans became industrial and creative, so that they can keep happy and feel fulfilled and safe by working, unlike the elves. They used the treasures of the earth to build houses and make weapons, and were ambitious enough to make weapons equal to those of the Gods and armors and shields, in order to fight against them if need be. But their minds were obsessed with magic, the power of all powers and Humans, could not find peace unless they cultivated their own types of magic. Through research, and study, they begun to meddle with the different aspects of magic they felt around them, and more with that of Necromancy, for that it was the one that could change their nature, overcoming mortality, granting them what they were deprived of from the start, a larger fire."
