A terrible war that led to the demise of the Ageroth Ancients as they were known and began their fall into myth and legend. It also founded most of the races that now rule and populate the Ageroth Mountains. The war was divided into two sides: Avians Led by the Roc's and the legend of a Phoenix who was known as a Prophet. Other lesser Ancients such as Perytons, Pegasi, and Hippogrifs aided the Roc's. Their goal was to push the Dragons away from the Ageroth Mountains for their callousness to the needs of the other Ancients in the mountains. Dragons Led by the dominant Gold Metallic Dragons albeit the war was caused by the predominantly evil Chromatic Dragons as their inherent evil nature caused much strife amongst the Avians. However the Metallic Dragons considered them family and still came to their aide once the war began.
