Together, these Primordials created the world and coexisted with their offspring for millions of years. In those early times, the world flourished in peace. However, that peace was not to last. Initially, the different species quarreled over minor disputes, but soon these conflicts escalated into full-scale wars. Bloodshed, screams of agony, and despair spread across the land.
Witnessing the devastation wrought by their creations, the Primordials were disheartened and enraged. Blame was cast among them, and a new era of strife—the Primordial Blood Era—was born. For centuries, every 100 years, the Primordials engaged in battles that caused mass destruction and untold death.
This cycle of conflict persisted for eons until one day, the Primordials vanished without a trace. The world, unable to comprehend their disappearance, assumed they had simply withdrawn in disappointment from the actions of their descendants.
In the absence of the Primordials, the world began to heal. The bloodstained lands and air heavy with the stench of death gradually turned green, and life began to flourish once more. People moved forward, freed from the terror of ceaseless wars, and the true cause of the Primordials' disappearance faded into myth.
Yet, the truth lies hidden in an unexpected place.

Long ago, the stars did not grace the night sky. It was during the turbulent Primordial Blood Era that the desperate desires of the people gave birth to the stars—lifeless, distant, and cold—except for one: the first star, which shone brighter than all the rest.
This star, unlike its brethren, listened to the heartfelt wishes and desperate desires of the world's inhabitants. Though it could only grant some of these wishes, it observed that all beings, regardless of their nature, longed for an end to the endless wars.
Determined to help, the star made a fateful decision. Unable to reason with the warring Primordials, it resolved to end their eternal conflict. Drawing upon every ounce of its power, the star removed the souls of the Primordials and destroyed their physical forms. This act, though successful, nearly depleted the star's energy. With its remaining power, the star revived the world and some of its inhabitants, offering them a fresh start. In its final act, it created a vast island crowned by a towering mountain, where the star itself came to rest as it fell to the ground.
Even today, no one truly knows why the Primordials disappeared. Countless theories exist, yet none have uncovered the true reason. Unbeknownst to most, the answer lies atop that mysterious mountain, where the star—its soul flickering with its last sparks of life—has slept for millennia, indifferent to the passage of time.
