Thousands of years ago, on an Island in the middle of the sea between two countries, an Island where the sun always shines, and no shadow touches, the Four Great Races came into being. The Elves were first, immortal, wisest and fairest of all. Then came the Kairachai, great Elves of the air, with wings like angels. Then, the Dwarf Lords awoke, the great miners and delvers. Finally, came the Humans, mortal, and still fair and wise, but not as wise as elves, and more battle-willing.
All lived in years of peace, as the first major cities came into being, and civilisations built slowly up. The two countries were named Laurelond and Retanyai, and the Island Taragar. The peoples were prosperous and united. All lived in the blessed light of the Gods. But then, the darkness was first seen, and the sun set for the first time, as Valune, Goddess of Darkness came into being. She brought forth plagues and monsters, mighty Dragons, cold Wraithes, wild Werewolves, and blood-thirsty Vampires.
The peoples slowly broke apart, and made war upon each other. The elves committed the Kinslayings, a brother slaying the other, the King, and many of his people, passing into the shadow, and becoming the first of the Drow. The Kairachai too, slew each other, splitting into two races, the Light and the Fallen. All was chaos and bloodshed, cities fell, and dragons slaughtered all they could find, as a Dark Lord rose to power.
But hope remained, and the Darkness was eventually destroyed, the land cleaned and healed, and the followers of Darkness headed deep into the caverns of the world, waiting for their time to come again...
Now, in the Age of Syros, monsters are appearing once more, and secrets of the past are being revealed. And in the Holy City of St Meriam...something awakes.....

The Weird and Wonderful things about School As this is a teenager-dominated site, I thought I'd drop in some school discussion. Feel free to have a laugh over the weird and wonderful ways of your teachers, classmates, worst enemies, and lessons. No naming names, though!
