Year 1, First Hero Time
The Age of Ice had come to an end with a great upheaval of fire. A distant mountain that had once borne life all around it through the endless cold erupted into a furious display of flame and death. For fifty long years the skies were darkened by ash, only glimmerings of light piercing the cloud cover - barely enough for the world's plants to scrape a living. Only in the last ten years have the skies begun to clear enough for one to truly see the stars again.
That was far far in the distance. The only indication these people had of such events was the Dark Cloud. A vast cloud of ash and dust crawled across the horizon and plunged the world into the Long Dark. Now the Dark Cloud is thinning and the age of New Light is upon the people of this land.
The continent that they live on has no set name, as the people on it know nothing of any other lands. Each tribe likely calls it something else, but It is simply their land. The gods shall call it Vertoil.
The land held seven tribes:
The Majang tribe lives on the southwest plains of Vertoil.
The Byjang tribe lives on the northern plains of Vertoil.
The Zyroon tribe lives among the lakes in central Vertoil.
The Rejail tribe lives along a river in southeast Vertoil.
The Jix live on the eastern segment of Vertoil.
The Krix live amongst the hills of north Vertoil.
The Nyrail live in the swamps of south Vertoil
The Magone are a small tribe of centaurs from a distant land. (I really liked them so I'm going to make them NPC in this one) Too many gods for this.
As the Green Star shown down upon the world, many looked up at this new sight. But alas, the light was still dim here and none were filled with a deep sense of wonder. Each individual who bore the potential to hear your worlds had no faith or knowledge of any god.
"The world is young, and tools are still bone and stone. How will you shape it?"
