  The Stewards Arrive. To banish the Dark Gods it took Gaea to bring forth the elven race. They banished the old gods and then helped populate Dierde with all types of animals. There were events that caused some animals to be corrupted. Some would become Beasts and monsters.   Gaea felt for the planet and out of the forests in many regions she brought forth, from the Fey the Elves. Gaea and Geskiedenis sought only the best elves to be monks in the new order that would catalogue all of history. As the elves began to settle and the dragons found their niches the presence of them allowed some of their gods from other planes to enter the Dierde (as the planet would become to be called). They showed the dragons and elves how to shape the magic around them and they both began to create much of the flora and fauna on the Dierde. In the north the monastery grew strong with new elves and even shape-shifting dragons who helped build a great temple underground and a flying monastery above it. Due to the bond Geskiedenis had formed with Gaea she became an immortal who was in charge of noting down the history and she now was able to have different monks write the history of different times simultaneously.   The First Flowering. With the discovery of magic by the creator races, talented individuals began experimenting with Planar Travel, contacting and visiting other worlds. Through these early portals came natives of these other worlds - dwarves, treants, elites, and mind flayers, in that order. Other races appeared, either through crossbreeding, planar immigration, or transformation by magic. Shams and phaerimms are believed to have appeared during this time, and may have been birthed by the primal energies of The Weave.   To banish the Dark Gods it took Gaea to bring forth the elven race. They banished the old gods and then helped populate Dierde with all types of animals. There were events that caused some animals to be corrupted. Some would become Beasts and monsters.   Near the end of this era there was The Corruption and many Beasts began to change, the world became dark, and it turned out many of the Dark Gods had done the same as the elves with an alternative plane -- a plane of Shadows and Nightmares. As the world grew dark and cold, and while many animals became corrupt the first of "Man" -- a more paleolithic version -- began to spread.
