“You see,” the voice spoke in a quietly, a great contrast to my scream of terror, “There are many things that I want, but only a few of them are within reach at this moment. Before I tell you what these things are, I must tell you everything. There is much in this world that you commonfolk do not know of. You are not alone in this world.” I had no idea what this strange voice was talking about, but I had a feeling that I was going to find out, and I wasn’t going to enjoy what would come afterwards.

“Before humans inhabited the world, it was a golden age of prosperity. There were elves, dwarves, orcs, and even what
you would now call mythical creatures, like dragons and griffin.
It was a wonderful time, full of magic and wonder. All these races lived peacefully, under the protection of the goddess of the Earth, Gaia. Alas, nothing good can last forever, and one day, all of that changed. Something horrible happened. Something that shook the foundations of the world. Something that could never be undone.”
