Terra
Wulrei, The 21st Day of Mask, 1403AC
It started with an experiment. Bahamut wanted a chance to explore to spread his wings and make something new. Terra was his chance. Finally shedding the old skin of his sister, Tiamat, he created a council. Gods that had issues with the same thing he did. The constant infighting, the no interference rules. And so Terra was created as was the council of Eight.
They started with Ziril. A volcano erupting violently until they tamed it. And they have since spread, building cities and empires.
But then came Arathias, and his will to destroy everything they had worked so hard to build. An epic battle took place
