 The **Classic Age** starts with the appearance of [[people:​Feuledalyre]] among the humans. The humans knew of the elves and dwarves, but both races had very little to do with them. Feuledalyre served as an ambassador from the elves to hundreds of human civilizations. Literature, theater, and the arts flourished in the rebuilt city-states. Unlike many of the other races the humans rebuilt within the first century and once again trade began to flow between civilizations that rose from the ashes. Before he left the guidance of humans to other elves he passed on the knowledge of magic. The **Classic Age** starts with the appearance of [[people:​Feuledalyre]] among the humans.

-After several more centuries of expansion the first seeds of religion began to take root. Much of the history of the previous millennia was lost with the destruction of the great civilizations ([[atlas:​Mesinite]],​ [[atlas:​Yu-an]],​ [[altas:Grippa]], and [[atlas:​Khall]]).

 The arrival of the [[lore:Eye of the Magi]] was preordained by many scholars and priests, but the length of its influence still wrought great changes upon the world. The arrival of the [[lore:Eye of the Magi]] was preordained by many scholars and priests, but the length of its influence still wrought great changes upon the world.

 Human magic was that of great rituals involving incantations,​ formula, and trappings. The magi had blessed their creations with a unique ability to understand complex ideas by first breaking them into a series of simple understandings.

-With the ability to harness the magic of the world the elder races welcomed the humans to a new level of understanding. Only the [[creature:​dwarf|dwarves]] still refused to meet with the youngest race. It is believed that the strongest dwarves clan leaders put a death bounty on any dwarf caught trading with the humans. Even speaking to a human was a sign of moral weakness.+With the ability to harness the magic of the world the elder races welcomed the humans to a new level of understanding.
