Gods, Men and Everything in Between

Turn 5 (2/2)

The City-State of Solas is long considered, by modern human historians, to be not only the first attempt to civilization but the first collectivized effort for a race of the world to come together and exist peacefully. Founded in approximately 2,125 F.A., the City-State was a coastal establishment of an estimated 30,000 humans and a permanent habitat along a long strip of coast. To the East, long strands of farmland went in every direction and life continued on. Life remained harsh, short and brutish. The City-State maintained order by continuation of the idea of a chiefdom, materialized by the human Thelias, who ruled through charismatic oratory and a sense of justice that was black and white with little room for interpretation.

The remainder of the world continued to be shaped by the Gods, and it was evident that with every addition to the world they felt the energy they handed out was not returned, and slowly but surely the Gods felt that energy sapped. Gods formulated Orders sympathetic to their cause, and these Orders worshiped the material--for they knew not of their Creators yet, it would set the stage for a future where the Gods could materialize in a much more real way for their creations.

In Edenia, the Elves were bestowed with the wisdom of Writing, depicting their Creation with majestic calligraphy. The first writing of the world allowed the scattered tribes of Elves to depict their past, and perhaps even pen their future. In centuries that passed, the Elves doubled their population.

On the main continent, the Arachnids were given the tool of Animal Husbandry, learning that the creatures of the forest could be tamed and bred instead of simply hunted outright. This led to an outright explosion of their population, as the once nomadic hunter-gatherer Arachnids begin to spin massive and entangling webs to co-exist along side one another high in the tree tops. By the end of the 2,500 F.A., the Arachnids were dwarfed in number only by their still unmet humanoid cousins.
