does this storyline need any changes??? PLZ TELL ME
Once there were three races, and they all lived peacefully. An utterly evil mage by the name of Gehannus decided to take advantage of the time of peace and enslave the 3 races. He summoned an army of the darkest demons from the Underworld to do battle with the races. Worst of all were the Succubi, for they would weave illusion around the entire army (thereby confusing the races). The exposition to the forces of evil ate away at their purity, eventually maddening them.
Finally, the three races destroyed Gehannus, but they were still veiled in illusion. The Dwarves thought the Elves and Humans were to blame, the Humans thought the Elves and Dwarves were to blame, so on and so forth. The hatred between the races was so great that the very earth split, creating 3 islands; one for each race.
This was a time of chaos for the deities as well. One goddess saw what was happening to the mortals and knew She needed to try to stop this evil. Only 2 groups saw that the other races weren't to blame for the cataclysm (a small group of Humans and a small group of Elves). The Humans shunned the faction of their race that thought the Elves and Dwarves were not to blame for the times of troubles. This goddess imbued the small group of Humans with holy power from her very essence; from there rose the Paladins. Now, She knew the Paladins alone could not stop the segregation, so She tried to contain it, to at least partially weaken the grasp of the evil upon the races.
The goddess tried repeatedly to no avail. She knew there was only one thing to do: sacrifice herself and force the evil into a single artifact, the Hefiah Forge.
Foreseeing that the forge should not be placed even on the same spiritual plane as the mortals, the goddess created a new plane, naming it the Overworld. Before destroying herself, the goddess began to cry. Her tears fell to the Overworld, and where they landed, a temple sprang forth from the ground.
The Paladins had to find some way to destroy the races hate for each other and return the world to its former self. The group of elves (who hadn’t received power from the goddess like the humans) grew jealous and tried to stop the evil on their own. These Elves, hoping to reduce the hostility, forced the larger population of Elves underground, not with magic, but with their subtlety and fighting prowess. These Elves that were driven underground became the Drow, eternally angry at all the races for what their cousins had done. They became reclusive, severing all contact to the outside world. As a result of their reduced numbers, the good faction of Elves eventually died off.
Unfortunately, some evil seeped out of the Hefiah Forge over time and corrupted the Overworld. So that none could approach the Forge, the Paladins erected a magical barrier; vowing that neither mortal nor immortal should enter.
It is your task to destroy the evil by collecting all the tears and bringing them to the Forge, for then and only then shall the evil contained in the Forge be destroyed... |
