Man believes in gods, powerful beings that created life, existence, and the universe as we know it. Some believe it was one god who created everything, others believe it was multiple gods that created or controlled specific aspects of our world, but our true creators, where just as mortal as we are, and their demise acts as a looming warning of our extinction.

 

Back when magic flowed threw the land like water in a stream, many creatures unfathomable to us now, ones believed to be incapable of ever existing existed, but one of these creatures where that of great power and greed, not only taking more than they needed even if it meant stealing, but always ensuring that everything that lived or breathed knew that they where the most powerful, and that everything else only existed to aid them. These creatures called themselves cazernats in the old tongue, or as we call them today, giants, for their size was unmatched, their voices boomed across the lands, and they were taller than even the mountains that existed in their time. Giants where either feared or respected by the others, there was not an in between, for anything that didn’t see them as higher beings would surely be killed.

 

After the giants had ravaged and conquered every bit of land on the planet and built it in their image, they decided that it was time to truly prove their superiority, by creating a brand new life from, something no creature had ever managed to do, even with the aid of magic. The giants started to create this species in their image using the life of other, lesser creatures, because everything below them only existed to serve them and do as they wanted in their eyes. But then something strange happened, something unexpected even to the wisest of mages, a war broke among the giants, for some believed that stealing the life of other creatures for their own gain was wrong, even if those creatures where lesser beings than the giants. This war lasted many years and killed most of the giant population, causing them to become more equal or even below some of the other creatures that had evolved during this time, and even making  giants a bit of a rare sight unless you were on their battle grounds.

 

Finally, the war ended, with the giants who wanted to created life by taking others winning and getting ready to continue their conquest. This started a new war, for by the time the giant’s war had ended, the other creatures where done with the giants acting like they where better, and like they could do what they wanted with the other living beings, so the creatures banded together and fought back against the giants. It was a horrible battle, killing many a creature and even causing some to go extinct, but the giants pushed on, and every being they killed was just another life to use for their little “experiment”. In the end, the giants finally destroyed everything, the world was no more than a barren wasteland, devoid of life, creatures, magic, and beauty. Only 8 giants remained in the end, and they finally go to make their creatures, small, ape-like versions of themselves, but without food and very little water, they slowly died out, their skeletons lying across the land, left to slowly disintegrate and become part of the land they thought was beneath them. These skeletal remains eventually became the tall mountains that stand proud today, their swords and mountains being the cliffs that jut out from what was once a body. Therefore, those who have heard this tale call giants, the mountain’s skeletons.
