...upon entering the library, the knight was approached by a grizzled old man, dressed in volumnous robes, and spectacles on the end of his nose. The man looked into his eyes and spoke "The knowledge you seek is found within. Whether you know what it is you seek is the mystery."
The Legend of Yrt.
Yrt was a flourishing planet ruled solely by high technology. The gods were no longer worshipped. The humans in their lust for power had long before slain nearly all other races. The secrets of magic were long forgotton. Technology reigned, technology too advanced for the civilization. Long wars broke out and the planet shook with battle. Eventually the ignorant humans set off a catastrophic explosion, which led to the destruction of all.
There were few who survived the apocalypse, who then struggled to survive on the barren, wartorn world. They attempted to pray to the gods who they had abandoned long ago, and hence were abandoned themselves, left to the consequences of their own malice. There was none to heed their call.
When suddenly, as if to answer their prayers, the great god Jaxxen Silverblade Dalsar Stumbled upon this ruined world. With the blessing of Ao himself, Val Silvera nourished the ravaged planet with part of his own life energy, giving the survivors a chance at life. He then split the humans to create the other races: the elves, gnomes, halflings, dwarves, and zlagtog. He also, seeing a need for balance in everything, created the beasts, and evil creatures of darkness.
