Lore

The world of Atreia has a long and war-torn past, a past that may be lost somewhat to conflicting records of bitter rivals. Take what you hear wisely.

Pre-Cataclysm
The world that the god Aion created was a paradise. His best creations, the Drakan, ruled over the other races justly. The god's power flowed through and sustained Atreia through the Tower of Eternity, the brilliant pillar that served as the planet's lifebood and axis.

Drakan Era
Tasked with sovereignty over the Humans and Sapiens, the Drakan were created as intelligent and powerful entities. Dragon-like in appearance, they carried out their duties and honored Aion as proper for many ages.

Millennium War
The peace of the Drakan's rule was crushed by these leaders themselves.

After Cataclysm
This is where the records split, as two very different stories come from two very different places. As the planet's crust crumbled and the Tower shattered, Atreia's light and energy came from a nearby star instead of Aion's influence.

Elyos Account
The Elyos found themselves blinded with light from the nearby star after the Tower split. As they adjusted to the brightness, they realized they had been left in a beautiful world, luscious and warm.

Asmodian Account
Meanwhile, the Asmodians were cast into immediate coldness and dark.

That brings us to the modern day, the year of 7__.
