Lori-el, named after the 'mortals' from the ɖɨʋɨռɛ ʀǟƈɛ's who descended onto the small realm. After everything settled they once again broke up into groups and spread throughout the planet. It didn't take long for kingdoms and empires to form, and shortly after disputes and war.
Not many of them remember the elemental realms, only few do and they keep it to themselves. The cultivators spread their knowledge throughout the world giving rise to cultivation civilizations.
Sects rule the land, whether it's a sect who forms an empire or the empire that forms a sect. Cultivation is just a tool for them to use against their enemies, they take for granted this power and use it for their own gains.
Most of the ɖɨʋɨռɛ ʀǟƈɛ that descended has long since past, but few family lines still exists. These families are known as hidden factions, choosing to spend their time researching the laws of their world then to fight meaningless battles.
After some generations the races of the Mortal Realm adapted for better suit their realm, the Ahi turned into humans and humanoid races, the Mer spilt into three races, fae, elven, and merfolk. The Terran became giants, trolls, and titans. Titans had a hard time producing offspring so out of all the descendants of the terran, they were the smallest. The Koja seemed to stay true to themselves, becoming nephilim, like humans but with angelic wings that allow them to fly high and build great cities on mountain tops.
The Ina and the Hjin seemed to follow the same evolutionary path, both races start off from the weakest type of their race and evolve into stronger versions. The Ina became Angels while the Hjin became devels.
"They've truly did good, their desendents are perfect for this realm..."(Gaia)
"But its not enought, already many realm wurms are on their last days, we need more races..."(Gold)
After a while brainstorming ideas one idea stuck out the most...
"Time, why don't you speed up the mortal realm even more, make it so that by the time the realm wurms die and their realms stabilize we can spread out the races instead of having them all in one realm."
"...Yes, that could work, especially if I set it to my limit, a day in the elemental realms would be at least around a couple thousand years..."
"Well then we should all also prepare, when the realm wurms died they will give the realm tree enough energy to grow rapidly, also the mortal realm will definitely absorb the surrounding realms..."
As they spoke already one realm wurm reached its end and exploded in a burst of chaotic energy, smaller realm wurms quickly swam out of the chaotic energy and started making their way towards clumps of energy.
