The rise and fall of Ty'Loren
Complete nothingness is what was before. There was no darkness, no light dragging us into life or death. We simply did not exist.
So when Antana came and granted Ty'Loren life, everyone and everything was eternally grateful and in her debt. She had created a paradise that we would never want to leave. And why would we. The air was clean, Ty'Loren was teeming with life, and we had not a care in the world.
She was our creator. Antana; our Goddess of Life.
This was how the first Age began. Un-docmented at first, the First Age, Age Life had officially began.
Antana created many different species in the days that followed. She began with the Elves, a dextrous, silent race. They were well known for their power of influence over people and most notably their appearance and long life. Apart from the Elder Elves that had been created amongst the younger of the litter, every Elf across all of Ty'Loren had long, blonde hair and a look that melted the hearts of most other cultures of both the male and female groups.
After many months had gone by, she created the Humans. Primarily a warrior race, the males of the race were feared amongst other races very quickly. The humans tended to have a fear of change and a fear of difference. If you did not look human, you were made to look human. At least that's the idea I got when I was younger, watching many a Elf come home after late nights out and them having their faces beaten beyond repair, or even parts of their face mutilated.
The females however were created to mainly bare the children of the new world, and submit to every whim wished upon them by their male counterparts.
The final race Antana introduced was the Collo. A band of thieves who took to the world very quickly. They were a race similar to that of humans except they were four feet tall, there bodies were covered in fur, and they never made a sound when they moved, so unless you were talking to one, you would not even know they were near.
Of course Antana also created many a beast for hunters to gather food and she also created much plant life that was also edible. Every creature had to learn about all the different sorts of plants, and Fungi growing pretty quickly because we soon had people dying of starvation because some plants were not edible or nutritious enough to keep us alive. Some were even poisonous to certain races, or creatures. The Exidibel Plant was a prime example. Although edible to the Elves and Collo, Humans who consumed the smallest amount of the Exidible Plant were found to stiffen up on the spot, stop breathing, and die. A form of Paralysis we later learned.
The first year of Age Life passed so rapidly. It was within this time I was conceived. I was to be one of the first inhabitants conceived on Ty'Loren.
...before the story continues, what race is the man?
