This world was still young. Even in it's infancy the world possessed many wonders.. numerous creatures inhabited it's vast oceans and forests.. it's towering mountains rising high into the sky and sometimes even belching fire. Damp marshes, dry deserts and huge oceans with distances beyond comprehension just a few of the amazing features that this world had to offer. It was rich in minerals, fertile in vegetation but most impressive of all were the many races of intelligent beings that called this world their home. They were young as well but even so were ambitious, like wild fire they spread out across the worlds surface, exploiting natural wonders for their own means in many different fascinating ways. They became a web of interconnected settlements, mines, outposts and forts. Thousands of these beings fought and died for honor, for country or for their own greed. Others profited in many noble (and not-so-noble) ways while others still desired adventure. These races created ships to sail the oceans, contraptions of all sort to attain their aspirations and slowly but surely this young world grew older and these races began to shape it to their own will..
