[spoiler=Eldion]When the world was young, and we had yet to walk its surface, there were only Four. They sculpted Eldion, and the places they held took to them, the land adapted their distinctions . Khain, Vel, and Sarlas went to Knowledge, Everon; he helped to bestow his knowledge upon the sentients who would live there. The Black Peaks and the northlands went to Death, Bane; he who is exiled here does not suffer long. Taredril and the easternmost of the explored continent went to Nature, Drua; the lands under her command flourished to be the most beautiful in the world. And beyond that went to Riddles, Strangeness, Mischief, and Chaos, one of the Four whose name was lost to his strange land; few mortals who ventured there have ever returned.

These places were commanded by the Four. Each crafted their homes to their likeness, but they were not content. The Jester had no one to joke with, Everon had no one to teach, Drua had no one to show the beauty of nature to, and Bane could only observe his barren lands from his castle. And so they created sentients. The Four would all take places in our lives. Bane took birth and death, the beginning and the end. He became the patron god of the dead and the death-giving. The Jester took joy, the base emotion that all intelligent life strives for. Everon was charged with the education and advancement of sentients, and Drua took it upon herself to form the natural beauty of the world.

And so they worked, and so it was done.
