The rest of the memory went on as aspected. Soon the humans began extracting minerals from the ground, odd-looking gems similar to azure, but Lucius could tell at a glance that they were magical in nature.
They also sucked the mana lakes dry and chopped down the trees that were lined all along the city. From what Lucius could tell, they were all marked, however, they seemed way larger, and seemingly more radiant than the one he had.
Of course, this was not done without retaliation from the Fae. Eventually, they realized that the humans were only acting in self-interest, but it was too late. The once god-like creatures were powerless... for what reason they could no longer wield their powers, Lucius could not tell, but he was certain the humans were at fault.
What ensued was a slaughter. Powerless, the Fae tried to run, but were hunted down... their greater creations sent back to the earth with them... and their lower ones thrown out into the forest.
