Pre-Zero

Pre-Zero was a period of time before the founding of Tyrrus, and as such Tyrranean historians know very little about this time. This era is shrouded in myth and legend and there are many tales that tell of the times before Tyrrus, but it is difficult to separate the truth from fiction. It is very difficult to put these events in some kind of chronological order, but this is the order they are most commonly known in.

Age of Elements
Also known as "The First Age", this was a period of time where elemental beings ruled the world. In this time there was no life, only magical beings constantly at war for control over the world. In legend the world was ruled by five Elemental Monarchs. This age culminated in the success of the Storm elementals and much of the world was frozen over.

The Frozen Age
With the world covered in ice and the world in a relative lull of chaos due to the success of the Storm elementals, life was given a chance to bloom. Creatures rose up from the ice, eventually a race of frozen creatures arose, creatures known only in legend as "The Frozen Ones". With the rise of life also came gods and quickly these telepathic manifestations began to gain power. The Frozen Ones rules the world for thousands of years, until the age of the Storm Elementals began to wane

The Age of Harmony
As the ice began to thaw and the elementals became more equally balanced, the Frozen Ones began to lose their territory as most of them simply could not survive in the warm environments. Many attempted to use Frost magic to hold onto their land. Within the new lands of warmth new life arose, and after a long time humans came around. The Frozen Ones looked down upon these newcomers with disdain and hated how humans were taking Frozen territory, this began centuries of war between the two races. In the end the Frozen Ones simply could not take back their territory and retreated to the frozen north and the deep underground. Humans began to build great civilisations, and started to bring harmony to the elements.
