Ancient Times & the Creation of the World

The very ancient history of Auberean is unclear. There are very few sources of information, which have been filtered down through the various Empyrean cultures, and do not always fit together into one cohesive story. A Yalaini legend, told to Asaina al-Arqis by Elysa Strathelar (who presumably heard it from Asheron) states that primordial gods struggled with evil shadow creatures and after a long contest that exhausted their powers, the gods banished the shadows into the earth by creating the sun and stars. A legend from the Light Falatacot states that the Deru Trees were created by the Light and they drove the Living Dark below, allowing life to spread across the world.

The Empyrean

The Isparian scholar Alatar Locke theorizes that long before the Millennium War and far before even the first stirrings of Falatacot malice in the swamps of the world the Empyreans willingly came to Auberean via portal magic with a singular purpose. What that purpose is remains a mystery. Alatar claims even the Empyrean forgot this purpose over the long ages.
