 When the gods left this world those races they gave birth to faced a dangerous world with none to shield and guide them. The exception to this was the elves because [[people:​Ellowyn]] was not a god, but a [[creatures:​faerie queen]]. While the devils and their [[creatures:​demon]] army had been forced to leave this world, the horrors of [[un-life]] they left behind still plagued this world. The elves worked tirelessly for many centuries to heal the land and restore its natural order, but the damage was far too great. When the gods left this world those races they gave birth to faced a dangerous world with none to shield and guide them.

-In an attempt to use what the [[creatures:​Sha’rek’ta]] left behind to aid them the elves found the [[Bronze Door]]. They already had studied the [[Black Gates]] and understood that they drew power from deep inside this world to the surface (see [[Mir]]). The elves opened its massive doors hoping to find the power to destroy the last of the un-life; instead the [[creatures:​demon#Demon Lord]] [[people:​Un'​gothar]] stepped out and slew all of the elves near the gate.+In an attempt to use what the [[creatures:​Sha’rek’ta]] left behind to aid them the elves found the [[Bronze Door]].

 Through the Bronze Door came a demonic host intent upon claiming this world for their own. The elves fell before the seemingly endless chaotic host. While the gods could only look upon the world for fear of destroying all of the realms, the fae were beings of the [[Shadow Realms]]. [[people:​Mardac]] and a few of his followers were away, so [[people:​Ellowyn]] led her [[orgs:​celestial_court|court]] into battle along with all of the creatures of this realm. To aid them she called her strongest warriors before the [[Elder Tree#Great Tree]] and from their sacrifice she crafted powerful bow staves. Through the Bronze Door came a demonic host intent upon claiming this world for their own.

-Together with these new [[lore:Maiden Archers]], the elves battled the demon host for several years, even driving them back towards the Bronze Gate. Although Ellowyn slew Un'​gothar at the door she knew the war was not over until the door was destroyed from the other side. She knew that many of her elves would never return, trapped forever in the infernal realms, but still the entire elven host voluntarily followed Ellowyn through the door with no hesitation.+Together with these new [[orgs:Maiden Archers]], the elves battled the demon host for several years, even driving them back towards the Bronze Gate.

 When Mardac returned he found his love had traveled from this land to a place he could not follow as the Bronze Door was now closed. The elves were still being harried by demons that roamed the land and Mardac was not powerful enough to stop them all. It was then that he was visited by cloaked figure who claimed that he could help protect the elves, with no other options Mardac accepted. The stranger brought to Mardac a vast host of [[creatures:​orc|orcs]],​ changed from what they were like when first given life. Originally the orcs were agrarian and peaceful, these orcs had been changed by a dark spirit into powerful warriors. These orcs not only protected the elves, but guarded their surviving cities and hunted down the demons still left upon the world. When Mardac returned he found his love had traveled from this land to a place he could not follow as the Bronze Door was now closed.

-Unbeknownst to Mardac the stranger was [[Reik'​tunra]],​ one of the [[creatures:Sha’rek’ta]], who was sleeping deep within ​the world until he was awakened by the presence ​of the gods. He was angered that these "​gods"​ stole the treasures of his people ​and drove off the [[creatures:​magi]] that they left as caretakers upon this world. As much as he hated the gods and their creations he hated the demons and their un-life more, so he worked to turn the gods own creations against all of them. Reik'​tunra used one of the [[great machines]] to draw forth the power of [[Miranda]] and change the orcs. The elves only saw the orcs as simple-minded warriors whose only duty was to protect them - they never saw the orcs as a poisoned dagger meant to kill them.+Unbeknownst to Mardac the stranger was [[lore:Danshi]] the goddess ​of destruction ​and rage.
