[hider=EVENT][h3][u][b]The Age of Empires[/b][/u][/h3]

Following the end of the Age of Chaos and the use of the Spirit Weapons, the first kingdoms of mortal races emerged on the scarred planet, forging empires and bringing vast tracts of lands under their control. These first kingdoms included the human empire of the Sundown Sea, the Dun Gramor mountain kingdoms, and the Arachnid hordes of the Children of Rom. These empires eventually came into conflict, leading to a series of massive wars that lead to dissent in the people of these empires (except for the Children of Rom, they did just fine), causing massive civil wars that lead to the end of the era.

A main point of this era was the use of magic, pretty much all of the races made use of some form of magic, and alchemical studies were at an all-time high. This overuse of magic lead to a drought of alchemical supplies that continues to this day, and since this era, magic has only gotten weaker and weaker.

Of the beings involved in this era, the Elder Arthropods were the largest among them, despite many of them dying at the end of the Age of Chaos, there was still a large amount. Despite this, some of the kingdoms began assaulting the massive and powerful beings, actually finding success.[/hider]
