History of the Savage Isles

The rising of the savage Isles believed to be the results of all the gods working together to create new land where there before were shallow waters. Indeed many scriptures tell of this event although each god has a different version.   Here the gods created many different species. Some in their own image, some to grow strong and dominate the Isles. Common for all is that the gods used this to get more followers which they hoped would result in more power.

Although it was unknown to the species of the Savage Isles, the creation of the Holy Order of Druids, soon became known as druids began killing whoever would kill the forest on the southern area of the Savage Isles.

As the war with the Holy Order of Druids died down the different races of the Savage Isles began consolodating their power. The humans were the quickest to do this as they took control of Mil'el, already a large city at this point. Quickly the other races followed suit and disputes over territory and resources soon resurfaced.

With the rise of Li'sin Ar and the great evil that rose with it the Savage Isles were quick to take action. Despite the war initially taking place on territory controlled by the Holy Order of Druids the many races of the Savage Isles were quick to unify once again and send out forces to stop it, although thise did not go well.

It did not take long for the short-lived races on the Savage Isles to once again start warring against each other. This started missionaries spreading different faiths, but when they were met with violent ends it quickly escalated and before long the entire Savage Isles were embroiled in war.

After almost 50 years of trying to settle the conflicts, the gods had to stop their efforts. The 50 years had been trying for them and many factions, even among the gods, had emerged and fragmented the collective power of the gods.   This only got more urgent after the Prophecy of the Release of the Great Evil. The gods suddenly had a united goal once more and had no power to spare on a conflict they had been unable to diminish for 50 years.

As the people of the Savage Isles flourished, the population rose and attracted people from all over E'ath. With the increase in population a plague, however, also followed.

As tensions grew between the north and south of the Savage Isles eventually the plague infected the southern areas. Many politicians accused the northern Isles of using magic to create a curse and further fueled the will for war.

With the plague slowly spreading and no stopping in sight some of the aristocrats of the Savage Isles began looking for a cure through magic. Eventually, a group of kitsune successfully discovered a spell capable of curing the plague.

Although the alliance had long been accepted it was not before the year 874 AoW that the help from the northern territories arrived in full force. With the new force the Savage Isles slowly but surely began pressing the Holy Order of Druids back.

After the death of Zemos, many in the Savage Isles were rallied to the war against the Holy Order of Druids. Meanwhile, the druids were quickly losing control, and as such the battle progressed quickly against them. In the end, a border was established which gave a considerable amount of forest under the world trees protection to the residents of the Savage Isles.
