After the calamity of the Floodbath, Incontinence was devastated. The lesser gods had done their best to protect their followers, saving many beasts and beastkin from a watery fate. The elemental armies were not so lucky. Forsaken by their gods, the few that remained were forced to retreat to distant lands, unable to return to their realm. The land began to recover as new and exciting people arrived, the emotionals, whose only intent was to survive so they avoided the beastkin anyway. New life sprang from the mountains as well, sturdy creatures with creative ingenuity. The gods who remained settled down with their people, teaching them all they knew and giving them gifts of knowledge and supernatural ability. After nearly three centuries, the people of Incontinence were getting back on their feet, and societies began to interact and expand. The gods, pleased with their work chose to enter dormancy, so that their presences could no longer plague their people with unusual side effects and dangers.

The First Humans
Life, BirthTowards the end of Ganagar, after the arrival of all the warring oroks, a new species wholly unlike the rest arose, The Humans. At first they were kind, loving, caring creatures, seeking only to care for the other people and animals as they developed their own society. But something dark was planted in the hearts of men, and a few began to feel overwhelmed in the face of a world thousands of years older than them.

The Human Invasions
Military actionSometime after a supposedly weak species had made its appearance, a young man from their culture started growing in popularity. He was a vicious advocate of human life and superiority and hated that his people were seen as weak (although the world merely saw them as a fledgling species, newly blossomed and gaining its footing), and began leading larger and larger groups of people to join together and prove to the other races how strong they could be. This resulted in a human faction the size of an impressive army full of violent murderers who had learned the art of swift or overwhelming death in order to overcome their "weakness". That individual, named Astor, led his people in many battles across the land, spreading his ideology to other humans, and conquering other peoples with extreme prejudice. These included in order, the Oroks, The Elzari, The Dwarves, The Gnomes, The Goliaths, and finally the Drackonis, an attempt that cost the human army dearly. The human armies retreated to their kingdom of Astorel, where they mysteriously went dormant, until they were raided by an organization of all the peoples they had pillaged.

The Scouring
Disaster / DestructionThe different kingdoms of the world finally have the chance to express their suffering and get their revenge. They set upon the kingdom of Astorel, and all the land experiences its darkest year as many give into their most animalistic and violent impulses in hunting down the remnants of the Astorians. Gods are awakened, beasts created, ancient secrets disturbed to take on the human armies. Much of the land was rent asunder, and many areas warped beyond prior recognition. Storms, created by the chaotic energies of the awoken gods plague the land in such severity and frequency that they make life for the average citizen hard.

Modern Day
MiscellaneousThe kingdoms of the land have begun healing, but they have withdrawn further into themselves, hiding and sheltering, cowering from danger. The world gets darker as storms grow worse, and the primal influence spreads, making going outside synonymous with death. Every settlement is designed around shelter, protection, hiding, as if holding their breaths waiting for the storm to pass. Meanwhile chaos creeps at the edges of society, and it wishes to push its way to the core.
