Editing Isle of Lumen (section)

== History ==

The Isle of Lumen's past is shrouded in mystery, and there is very little anyone knows about how it came to be or the lifestyles the first people that lived there had.  What we do know is contained within this section.

=== Religion ===

Though religion is hardly the focus of the Isle of Lumen - to this day there are no acts of worship - most people believe that the Isle was created thousands of years ago by the Great Six Divine:

*Bardagh - The Warrior

*Laekna - The Healer

*Túran - The Elemental

*Galdur - The Mage

*Blóem - The Herbalist

*Sagth - The Lorekeeper

These beliefs have held true to this day, though no faith or religion has ever been created in reverence to these six creators.

=== Early Stages ===

Throughout the early years of civilization, sentient beings were the least powerful of the land, usually cast aside by dragons or the like, who were much larger and therefore were feared by all beings.  It was not until several hundred years later when sentient people were nearly extinct did six young children, all the same age, step forward.  They possessed amazing gifts: one of amazing Warrior skill, one of Healing, another of mixing Herbs, another still of Elemental control, one of Magic, and one of Lorekeeping.  When they came of age, they were elected the very first Council, a group of six people, each of a different Class, to maintain peace on the Isle of Lumen.

=== Start of Civilization ===

This was the start of civilization on the Isle of Lumen.  Villages were built and populated, and little by little the Elves, Humans, Angels, Demons, Vampires, and Werewolves left their hiding places from the outside world and began to create a civilization for themselves.  Bonds were made almost at once, though all of the races remained close as they began to build up this new world of theirs. Very few fights ever broke out and war was never declared between any of the races.

=== Tensions Mount ===

After a while of being friendly amongst each other the different races began to break away from their tight bonds.  They spread themselves to the far ends of the Isle, and even traveled across to Bárn Island, where many races set up villages.  Fights began breaking out, and bonds were broken.  This was especially true for the High and Dark Elves, once inseparable, and the Vampires and Werewolves.  While one would think that the Angels and Demons would soon part from one another, they remained inseparable.  During this time, Humans remained, for the most part, neutral.

=== Life Today ===

Not much has changed since that time, though fights are more frequently coming up and a war may be looming in the near future.
