In an age long since passed the Heart of the Underworld, a living magical artifact from which all life in the underworld springs, brought into being 3 brothers - and imbued them with the power and magic needed to steward the world it had created.

The first of these was Dreor; who became king of beasts and keeper of knowledge, the second was Auriel.
Less beasitial than his elder sibling, but no less the striking figure; Auriel was granted the gift of leadership and strength.

He was always stoic, but kind, and took very seriously the role given to him by the Heart. It was with a gentle hand he aided and guided the newborn people of the underworld alongside his brothers as the heart had intended.

But differences between them began the strain the brothers relationship, particularly between the caring righteous Auriel, and Urlac, the youngest brother, who had developed a taste for power and selfish cruelty.

The third brother turned completely to darkest depths of magic and fled with his court to Nowhere; where he established his own kingdom, and set his sights on War with the second brother.

It was ultimately Auriel who killed Urlac and ended the long and exhaustive war between them. The death, that many had thought to be impossible, fractured the Heart of the Underworld, and life nor magic have been quiet the same since.
