Humanity's knowledge of this damned place

at the beginning of time this plane of existence was there, silent, devoid of life. an calm and dark place.

for some reason life came to be, it formed two entities. simply known as gods by us mortals. these two entities, which names are long forgotten created the earth a place where we can wander on, aimlessly.

While the immortal beings where enjoying their age of radiance, some horrid creature from deep down below, beyond the earth, perhaps even beyond this very plane of existence, laughed. his laughter destroyed kingdoms, burned down forests and brought forth creatures from the deep. Immortality became a curse, nobody wanted to coexist with these creatures from beyond.
