The history of Anttelius is long and mysterious, but signs of its passage can still be seen today, and the chroniclers of the order speculate on what really happened in the eons that have gone by.
The Wars of Many Stars
As many alien beings came to this world, each for their own reasons, conflict didn’t take long to emerge. Signs and early records of the most primitive human languages indicate that a great war devastated many civilizations of these ancient times.
What caused this all out war is unknown but its consequences were catastrophic to the races who rules out world of yore. Their population seems to have disappeared suddenly and violently. This conflict don’t seem to have lasted much time, as the records and depictions found in the ruins of this early age rarely mention or depict these conflicts.
What is almost certain is that the first civilizations of men began to appear as the early races dwindled.
