The Fall of the Erathiel Race

The Erathiel were a proud and noble race, the third creation of the Sentinel during the Great War. They were created to be the messengers of the gods and mortals, able to soar the skies with their wings that shone like the sun, and their deep connection to the sky. Their unique abilities made them respected and revered by all. But their hubris led them to build the flying city of Overcloud, which was considered an affront to the Gods. The Gods, jealous of the Erathiel's abilities, decided to curse them. They stripped the Erathiel of their immortality and made their wings fragile, causing them to fall from the sky and eventually die. The Erathiel, however, did not give up easily. They adapted to their new reality, and despite the curse, they continued to explore the world. But their society was not as prosperous as before, and they were persecuted by other races out of superstition, which led to the near extinction of the Erathiel. Now, the Erathiel are a scattered and dwindling race, struggling to survive and keep their culture and traditions alive. The once-proud flying city of Overcloud is now in ruins, a reminder of their hubris and the cause of their downfall.
