Planning: History of Fabulae

Unlike the wandering history of the Nathorites in Dishon 9 and Dishon 10, I wanted the history of Fabulae to make sense. So, before I began the history of Fabulae in The New Era 15 and The New Era 16, I sketched out notes beforehand. Unlike a lot of my other notes, you'll notice I stay pretty close to this.

*
Beginning--Reign of Deities--Human like beings with super-powers--lasted thousands of years

*Great War--Many killed--cursed ground to ice and snow. Because of pain the ground caused them, the gods left to build a city in the clouds (Invisible to all. location unknown)

*the gods created beings to live in cold to honor past life and comrades (for example, the Icelers)

*after 10 thousand years, dieties neglected to keep world cold--thawed in most spots

*melting snow revealed dead deities--dying Icler who touched it transformed into non-ice life forms, depending on which deity they touched.

*among new races created--Lizard men, Nathors, Humans, etc. All humanoid races

*60 thousand years later--races had developed astounding technology

*Discovered dwelling place of gods

*gods became frightened, wrecked havoc, Killed many--wiped out all technology

*small group escaped into space--gods power is limited to Fabulae, so not able to pursue into space

*gods vow never again to let Fabulae out of control

*animals and non-humanoid life forms created to cause dissent

*Deka appointed chief of Fabulae affairs

*frequently reappears to stir violence--Keeps technology in check

* Deka reveals himself--founds empire of Calet and helps it conquer 3/4th of Fabulae

*Deka ends deep involvement with Calet

*Deka appears only from time to time

*Deka religion once covered all of Fabulae, now dies out

* Calet empire slowly falls apart
