Long ago, the Ancient races and the humans lived together as one. They shared the land and it was a time of glorious peace. But one day, a Mage by the name of Elderic grew envious of the power of the Ancient one's. He began to study magic forbidden by nature, gaining power no mortal was meant to hold, but even so it was not enough for him. It wasn't long before he found another who held his greed. The leader of the Veldic clan.
He wanted no power, mealy the greed of riches and glory. Forming an alliance, they began to work to get the other the clans on there side. Using a mix of forbidden magic and bribery, Elderic and the leader took control of the clans. It was shortly after that Elderic slew his partner, having no intention of sharing this power with anyone. With all the clans under his control, Elderic took control of the human race, and began plotting against the Ancients.
~~
For years, Elderic built his army. Gather a mass unseen at the time. He knew he had no hope to outmatch the Ancients, but he would use sheer force of number to slay them. Over the years, he sent assassins to make silent strikes against the Ancients, never being suspected. The Ancients believed Elderic to be a wise and loving Mage, how wrong they were.
Over the years, he kept the pretense of peace and friendliness. Though he used the Veldic clans wealth to train and arm his massive army.
After eleven long years.... he struck the first blow.
~~~
Sending a group of Veldic Saba tours and Reku Mages to the great Gi' Eld mountains, he struck against the dragons. During their mating season, he had his men use a mix of explosives and magic to bring the grand mountain down, bringing with it most of the Dragonkin.
The Ancient Races were enraged, but Elderic convenience them the men acted alone in this. He slew his own men before the Elvin king in retribution. Though now wary, The Ancients did not hold the human race accountable for the actions of these men.
Eldrics plan was working without fail.
~~
Elderic had many of the Dwarven mines collapsed, he turned the orcs against one another, and poisoned the water of the elves.
But after one more year of these silent attacks, Elderic brought forth his army to the Lunario forest, holy ground to the elven race. King Arato intercepted the great force and held back the army as they tried to set fire to the forest, but he tried in vein. The Elves outmatched the humans, by number overwhelmed them. The king was forced to flee. The holy site was lost to the world forever.

Centuries later
The Ancient race still continue the war against the humans. The Mage Elderic vanished soon after the war was started. Most count him among the dead, but not all.
The humans have taken a king to rule their land. King Palan, direct descendent of the great Mage Elderic. He hold the same ambition of his Ancestor.
The Fighting has continued for the centuries with nether side weaning.
The Dragons refuse to fight for fear of extinction. The Dwarves are starting to talk of retreating into their mines and the Elves continue the fight.
The Vakgar- A Kingdom full of Ancient Races. Elves, Dragons, Dwarves, and Orcs hold this land. It is located near the great eastern ocean of the world. The land is covered by deep lush forest, and mountains that reach far past the clouds. The rich lands or filled with magic, that seems to hang in the very air of the Ancient Kingdom.
The Elven King Arato has ruled over the land since time immortal. Though each of the ancient races have their own leaders, he governs them all.
