Galbuus The Weave of Fates

Galbuus is a world far older and more enigmatic than known History would suggest. Many times more information has faded from the lexicon of common knowledge, for what little that means, than is currently present. As the world shifts and molds into the future, the past resounds repetitively with greater thundering force until its call can be ignored or forgotten no longer.   History within Galbuus is conventionally split into three ages; The First Age, The Second Age, and The Current Age.   The First Age, this is the age of the gods and the grand designers. In this age, the world was created and shaped into the form it exists as today. Almost nothing factual exists of this period that went on for an indeterminate period of time. What little is known is passed down through the word of divine messengers, sometimes obfuscated by the intermittent pretender, but always laying within the edifice of the church. The skeptics in society would mark all of these to conjectural stories crafted to establish a position of authority. Whether these exists as divine truths or educated, or possible uneducated, guesses is for no one but the gods to know. Ancient texts in unintelligible language lead credence to the fact that something existed, but what that precisely looks like is mere speculation. Ancient artifacts have been found in cataclysmic sites but their function escapes the grasp of the minds at the time. Those artifacts are thus mystically revered for their form over function, leading the the generation of fantastic tales and stories. Mythology bends this era to the wills of charismatic storytellers and their perfected fables. It is almost impossible to separate the realities of this time from the fantasies that have been constructed.   The Second Age, this was a period of over 1000 years that created the foundation for the current age. Cultures developed asynchronous from each other and fledgling empires and power structures expanded unchecked until reaching the borders of another. These cultural and border frictions eventually began to spawn contention among the parties involved. Bloody wars frequently dotted the landscape and this period is marked by the bloody ascension of a few noteworthy empires and nations rising to power that successfully bulwark themselves against internal and external threats. Blasted ruins and battle sites   The Current Age, is the current period in which the world is experiencing. In this age, much of History is meticulously recorded although access to this information is asymmetrically granted. These great empires have reduced the amount of conflict present in the world but increased its scale. Wars, however infrequent, are now massive endeavors fought by thousands upon thousands of soldiers who now give their lives for a construct they don't understand or benefit from.
