According to the Guardians, mankind were created in the hidden city of Syrn. (Note, this conflicts with the Dark Elves story of creation which places dark elves as the first species, though also in Syrn.) In the Guardian narrative, magic was given as a gift to these first beings. Due to the violence and selfishness, mankind was expelled out of Syrn in order to populate the world under the guidance of the Guardians. But at some point, a threat arrived that was so serious that the Guardians had to leave Mundus behind. They left to face the threat, which many have called “The Watchers.”

Syrn When the First Ones wanted to create peace, they needed a place for it to grow. They created the First City for the first race to be born. The race of dark elves lived in Syrn. The development was great, it covered our world. Then the war for magic began. The dark elves fought to the death. For several generations, Syrn remained deserted. The Portals The dark elves were at war for dominance of magic. The First Ones were worried that their children would die. They created a portal in the First City. The dark elves could use it to go to the surface of the world. The portal of the First City opens with the Book of Uskhena Gadah Gos. The elves could now move between the First City and the surface. They could survive the war. Other ways to create these portals were developed. The waudit can be summoned with certain centers. The portal of the First City allows one to move between worlds Asthena Gadah Sos the First Ones created the portals of our world. With them, the dark elves could move between the First City and the surface of the world. The grand portal could also be used to travel among the stars. When the dark elves went to live on the surface, the First Ones closed the portals. The war among the dark elves ceased. The First Ones gave a Book to the dark elves. It can be used to open the portals again. Orapal Camas When the dark elves were at peace, the Book was there. When the dark elves discovered the magic of Orapal Camas, the book was there. When the dark elves fought for the magic, the book was there. When the elves dark left Syrn, the Book was there. The history of this race is in this book. The Book was closed when the elves dark came to the surface. The Telluric Zones of the dark elves were fighting for magic, the First Ones created portals to send the dark elves to the surface. The dark elves could not live on the surface. The First Ones created large magic zones. In these zones, the dark elves changed to become something different. The mortal races were born. In these zones, the races mortals created Gods. The First Ones took back the magic of these zones after the creation of the Gods. The Guardians were First Ones. They lived in another world in the stars. They created several worlds because they wanted to learn from others entities. They created a first race and waited until it became mortal. They learned from our actions. When one of them left his original world because he wanted to dominate, they followed him. They wanted to stop him. The Prophets When the First Ones left the world to to pursue their brother, they left us a way to lead our world while they were gone. Darkness spoke to his brothers in the pleasure of war. The five first ones could not prevent it in time, and the Council ordered that the world would be tested. Great calamities fell on our world and we must survive or the Darkness will exercise its right to rule the world. May the Prophets help us.

While battles for land raged across the central land, the powerful necromancer of Teratos, Uskuada, plotted in secret. Inviting representatives from Garganesh (now a province of Auquese), Nasgaroth, the Forgotten Territories (Territoire de L’Oubli) as well as the Misty Lands (Territoire des Brumes) to the secret city of Syrn where they hatched a plot. Uskuada wanted to take control of the central lands in to capture the magical energy needed to open a portal to Gadar-Hos, the realm of chaos, and therefore pull the whole world into darkness.

In the year 1009, the departure of the guardians of knowledge left people seeking answers. Religious preachers seize the opportunity to convert followers, leading to chaotic conflicts among seven religions. The Circle and Teratos gain the most advantage in these clashes, with no respite from the recurring calamities affecting the world. Fears of the end of an era prompt a futile exodus, and amidst the chaos, voices from various belief systems emerge, claiming to guide people through turbulent times. However, a total war between different faiths looms as they blame each other for the calamities. Leaders of major religions mobilize their followers for an impending battle. The Holy See rallies the faithful, Teratos prepares in Syrn, Iliaca's priestesses call believers, and the Circle religion directs followers to Toirac. Solara's and Gorghor Baey's followers are also warned to prepare for the worst. Amidst this turmoil, a lone pilgrim preaches that only one belief among the seven will prevail, and the chosen one will receive the powers of the Great Book. In Loren's tournament qualifiers, armies representing different beliefs gather for the Great Battle. The Sun God Gorghor Baey, self-sufficient, remains above the conflict. A coalition forms against the true faith, which denies the existence of other gods. In the third chapter, Gorghor Baey gives a staff of power to Teratos. Ultimately, Gorghor Baey's forces achieve 11 objectives with 30 men, while the true faith achieves 14 with 450 men. The main objective of the Great Battle is to gather Tablets of Knowledge, revealing Bicolline's history and future clues. A coalition of right-thinking people aims to share knowledge, but conscientious objectors, including Gorghor Baey's men, thwart their plans. Gorghor's horde acquires the crucial Tablet of the Unspeakable, and Mage Glahul deciphers its content. The Great Battle also witnesses the incarnation of the Sun God Gorghor Baey, marking his first appearance since Transubstantiation. However, this event remains private and fails to convince his detractors.

The powerful voice of the Holy See was the first to call upon all the faithful of the true faith to gather their armies. On the outskirts of Zoleth, thousands of disciples have already joined the druids of the Sacred Althing. The followers of the Great Dark One have, for their part, predicted that the City of Syrn will be the epicenter of the new world that is coming, the apostles and priestesses of Teratos have begun to gather their faithful.

Morcius comes from the hidden city of Syrn. Before becoming Khan, his mission was to return the Hunda In 1006, Morcius left Syrn to walk once again under the stars. It was then revealed to him that his ancestors were a race descended from the First Men, the Hundars. He was henceforth tasked with bringing them back into the world of the living so that the perpetual hunt could resume.
