Category:The Third Age

The Age after Orien's release from his prison, where the Blight returned to the land. Without the knowledge of the archmages from the Age of Erudition, it was not able to be contained, and in a last ditch effort, the remaining mages sacrificed their lives to create a series of underground caverns, enough to sustain life for as long as necessary. However, the magic used was powerful and uncontrollable, and the caves themselves retained trace magic: as a result, the flora and fauna within have evolved at a much more rapid pace than expected.
