| - | A new age was heralded when the magi opened the [[Black Gates]] which flooded the world with power. Those touched by the power were forever changed. The creatures of this world now contained power that could challenge the gods. This power was used it to shape the world in their vision. This was a time when the sky was filled with [[creatures:dragon|Dragons]] and [[creatures:Griffon|Griffons]], great [[creatures:Leviathan|Leviathans]] and [[creatures:Kraken]] fought in the seas, and the land was contested by [[creatures:Minotaur|Minotaurs]], [[creatures:Jinn]], [[creatures:Redcap|Redcaps]], and [[creatures:Gorgon|Gorgons]]. | + | A new age was heralded when the magi opened the [[Black Gates]] which flooded the world with power.

| The world would have been lost into the chaos forever but for the actions of a single man who raised an army of those not corrupted by the power. They marched upon each of the gates and either destroyed or closed them, except for the seventh (|| || || |) gate, which they were never able to fully seal. Denied the power that sustained their life the various creatures either left this world (Jinn), hibernated (Leviathans), or fed on other creatures of power (Dragons) until none remained. | The world would have been lost into the chaos forever but for the actions of a single man who raised an army of those not corrupted by the power.

| Before the magi left this world they planted the seeds of new life. The magi used the last of the power of The Ancients to create life in their own image. The magi then extracted a promise from the elves to teach their greatest creation, humans, how to use power from the Shadow Realms safely. With that done, the magi left the world and a new Age of Men dawned upon the world. | Before the magi left this world they planted the seeds of new life.

With the exodus of the Magi from this world they set a comet into the sky. This comet is called the [[lore:Eye of the Magi]] and returns to this world around every two-thousand (2000) years. The appearance of the comet has always brought great change to the world. |

| + | The age arrives with the appearance of [[people:Feuledalyre]] among the human settlements. Him and his followers were undertaking the task of teaching humanity how to control magic. Literature, theater, and the arts all flourished as Feuledalyre taught humanity. This age saw the rise of the [[atlas:Sorcerers Kingdom]], the largest human empire in existence. Ruled by scholar-magicians those unable to control their legacy found solace in the gods. The first religions rose up in forms far different than the experiences of the elder races. | ||
| + | The Eye of the Magi arrived in 1883 CA and soon humanity was stuck with a deep malaise. Those that managed to survive the first few years had wandered far from the sanctuaries created by the elves. Humanity had taken steps into the larger world as thousands of new tribes fought to survive in the new world. | ||

| - | Humans have asserted their dominance over the world of Miranda. Great human nations now span across the world driving other races to much smaller territories. As has occurred so many times in the past these human nations now go to war. Entire cultures are created, grow, and destroyed within the span of a few human generations. Some of these nations, like the [[atlas:Sorcerers Kingdom]] spanned several [[atlas:continents]], but even that mighty kingdom fell and its people killed or enslaved by rising nations. | + | Humans have asserted their dominance over the world of Miranda.

| The end of the Age of Heroes occurs when the members of [[orgs:phoenix_force]] travel to the [[Tower of Ashari]] to confront their destiny. Driven there by forces beyond their control and attacked by enemies who do not wish the current age to end - they reach the heart where they find a madwoman chained between two pillars. In an act of mercy they take up the [[Sword of Shadows]] and release the madwoman from her prison. This women is the last of the Sha’rek’ta (The Ancients) still alive. The Magi across the dominion know that she has been freed and their compact with the gods broken - they begin to return home. | The end of the Age of Heroes occurs when the members of [[orgs:phoenix_force]] travel to the [[Tower of Ashari]] to confront their destiny.
