Wenderia's Exodus

Paradise, however, was not enough for some. As time passed and new generations began to grow, they also began to resent their god and what he offered. It was believed that they could prosper even without the Divine One's guidance. As more and more turned their back on his word, his fury grew. They had forgotten that all of their lives had been given to them by the Divine One.

"And so, from that day forth, fire and ice rained down from the heavens. Crops wilted and happiness turned to terror." In the Divine One's wrath, he left nothing of the old world. Lush gardens and forests became dead swamps, and any attempts to plant within them were met with futility as those plants withered and decayed. Lakes and rivers dried up, leaving only saltwater to live by.

Only a small handful of devotees escaped the Divine One's wrath. They would become known as the first Elders, guided to a small, new land - Wenderia. Casting off the mantle of their past, they dubbed themselves and their future progeny 'Wenderians' and began to remake their world. This would be a world of careful interaction, as the Divine One had no intention of giving freely - knowing now that such freedoms would eventually be received the same way as they had.

This period - dubbed W.E. or Wenderia Eternium - began the shaping of the world as it exists today.
