The wastelands was the field of battle between all seven of the lesser gods in the age of the new gods. In the age of the new gods they originally showed no emotions or feelings but over time were influenced by their worshippers. Overtime this gave them progressively more mortal aspects in terms of persona. Overtime this created competition between the gods has their newly formed egos and personalities clashed, has this progressed it became more and more volatile and dangerous until eventually leading to war.  In this scenario the gods decided on a time and place to hold this great war that would decide who was the greatest of the new gods with their worshippers sent to die for their beliefs. In the ensuing battle great many heroes legends engaged in mass warfare that would strip the land bare of resources and living energy. One of the factions decided to use the large gathering of dark energy from the war and deaths it created to open a demon gate, an open door for demon kind too invade. Which they very eagerly did so. Has masses of demons erupted from this gate began to spill out into the mortal plane, the gods realized the severity of the issue.  The invading demons spread out onto the field of battle and engaged all sides in warfare. In the onslaught the demons feasted upon the amassed dark energy from the dead, dying and the the negative emotions of the living. The gods would send their angels to engaged and help the mortal beings in the ensuing battle. An with all sides finally setting aside their differences to engage this new and far more dangerous foe they would eventually succeed in routing the demons and closing the gate. It was in the aftermath that the Elder God returned and grieved at the destruction wrought by his children, and so he would take the seven and vanish for a time. Though the mortals would suffer greatly even more so in the aftermath, due too the unknown at the time side effects of dead demons on the mortal, has their bodies are composed of ' @Corruption '. A black matter that makes of their very being that when it decays can permeate the area around it. This corruption would feed of the negative energy around it, spreading although in a limited area from where it started. This corruption made the area unlivable has anyone who came into contact with the corruption could be turned into a demon and repeat the cycle and create more corruption.  Has such most mortal races avoid areas with open sources of corruption to prevent it spreading further.
