End of the First Aeon

Χαος removes his cloak of darkness from the world, and blasts a large forested area of the planet with concentrated chaos and uncertainty, anchoring his enchantment to the very fabric of reality.

Within this area, nothing is constant. Even the laws that govern nature itself find themselves twisted and random. Creatures that venture in wander around in a fugue, and leave the area changed... sometimes in subtle ways, other times not so subtle. Some enter and are never seen again.


And there was much rejoicing as the sun returned. The Forest of Chaos arises, and as wonderous as it is, most avoid it for they fear the effects it has upon them. Some creatures adapt to the chaotic environment and are wonderous and terrible indeed.

Far below in the subterranean tunnels carved by the Dragons, down one of the deepest branches, an earthquake opens a small passageway into a hidden grotto. Χαος touches the mind of a lone Alexandrian known for his love of exploring caves, and leads him to the passageway.

Inside he finds the remains of an ancient Elemental, and a most disturbing prophecy etched onto the cavern walls.

Four shall ride out
Three shall return
The icons of power
Shall they yield
When Titans sleep
And Gods have Gone
Then Only Shall Mortals Rule
But the Might of the Titans
Shall remain
Wielded in Object and Ire
To Ultimately Destroy the World
Unless A Path of Perfect Balance Is Found.

Menrva, Tinia and Uni split the Alexandrans into 3 groups and each god adopts one of the groups as their own. Menrva gives her people the gifts of the warrior. Tinia gives her people the gifts of the scientist and Uni gives her people the gifts of the mage. Alexandra retires to the heavens to watch what will unfold.

And so it is that the Farshoom and the Pathi sleep, for the Pathi are nearly wiped out and without the Pathi, the Farshoom have no purpose. As they sleep, so do all gods but Xyrear and the Three Sisters. The Shardi retreat to the tunnels, and the Dragons enter a long sleep but shall return in due time. The Elementals are eternal, but keep to themselves, so for a while the Alexandrians have the world to themselves and there is much peace, but the efforts and will of the titans begins to fade, as the Aeon passes. Word of the prophesy is recorded, and the Alexandrians prepare for the coming of the Gods, living in harmony with the world.

An obelisk arises with 10 gems set to preserve the world in its direst need.

Banio's efforts to create the Nothing is destroyed, a single action chosen by the Void, by right of Decree to revoke.

Finally, just as the last efforts and influences of the titans fade, echoes and emblems of the power, and a single item of great power is taken and hidden, captured until the Third Aeon, representing the power of each Titan (save Banio who was never a true Titan to begin with.)

And so ends the Aeon.
