《Ethereal Creator of Realms》BK 1: Chapter 19 Iron Age
Advertisement
I watched as Jor recruited his first general, and built his forces as years became decades and decades became centuries.
Kingdom’s crumbled as new ones rose in their wake, the dwarves increased trade with the humans, as the human’s increased in numbers along with their wars.
Nation’s became empires, as the Trones Empire slowly encroached upon the rest of human territory now only a few small nations, and coastal city-states left just outside their reach.
The human coastal city-states beginning to send voyages further and further across the massive river they call a sea, not quite yet discovering the western continent.
They trade of marine products and resources from a few islands here or there.
The wildes national population slowly growing back to normal as they settle further and further west and south away from their regal neighbors.
A few settlements even making their way north getting closer and closer to human territory.
The regals having gotten the message, never cross back over into unconquered wilde territory, however, they do not leave the wildes lands they conquered nor do they free their wilde slaves.
The human’s finally working up the nerve to venture further into the southern jungles, with the regals and wildes grown closer to human territory, humans begin to comes across the wildes and regals more and more frequently.
First frightened by the legends of beastlike men and women being spotted dashing behind trees, they soon find them more than just legends.
More and more human expeditions get sent into the southern jungles, sometimes sending back wildes or young regals back home in cages for study, out of sheer curiosity.
Soon coming across the first wildes and regals settlements some human expeditions offer genuine friendly greetings, while others offer a guise of friendliness their own twisted desires underneath.
There are………. Varied reactions.

Overall though humanity temporally turns their eyes toward the south curiosity, greed, and rumors having gotten the better of them.
A few skirmishes break out with the wildes, but nothing more the wildes still not being able to afford all-out war.
The regals respond to all attacks in kind eliminating all hostiles, and sending troops into enemy territory.
Intense fighting breaks out but the human's reliance on magic due to their weaker bodies compared to races they’ve encountered so far, is what saves them.
Able to repel more magic attacks of the regal’s due to having higher magic resistance than the wildes, and strategic group spells, along with a few of their powerful magic users manage to defend their territory.
Not to mention humanity's sense of strategy.
They manage to fend off the regals before they can lay claim to their territory.
Slowly but surely trade routes are established lines are drawn and relations pick up on a more positive note, as equals.
The wildes due to their similarities to the regals are respected by humans as well, although the humans still don’t quite fully understand the reasons the regals and wildes don’t really get along.
That is until the humans see the slaves, wildes serving regals while bound in magic chains or collars like animals.
They frown and look down on it inwardly but don’t say anything, hiding their feelings about it until they go back home.
At home, their masks fall and they openly criticize the regal's view of slavery behind closed doors, denouncing slavery while among their fellow humans, but none the wiser in front of regals.
Nevertheless, time marches forward the dwarf trades iron with the humans who trade iron with everyone else on the eastern continent and everyone starts developing their own ways to smelt iron, albeit poorer than the dwarves.

The elves on the western continent even come up with iron smithing a few centuries prior to other races, besides the dwarves.
Thus as the dragon kin’s numbers grow among the races, primarily humans and elves, more and more dragonkin find themselves without nations or a purpose, most find refuge on the northern continent with their dragon parents and ancestors.
Slowly but surely they even form towns on the northern continent primarily outside the edge of dragon territory, more towns scattered throughout Origin.
A few even managing to make their way to southern continents were monsters have been left to thrive.
Entering the Iron Age I notice that the miasma near the edge of dwarven lands has grown larger mixing with the ambient mana/aether.
The purple Miasma a mix of my own diluted Mystic in the form of Mana and Orcrox’s red malicious angry energy, seems to be mutating even normal animals into malicious, insane, sometimes just plan angry monsters.
The miasma even strengthens existing monsters in the area turning them into more demented versions of what I originally created.
Noticing how it spreads further into human territory, dwarven territory and uninhabited territory in all directions, I decided I should finally do something about it.
In the long term, it may strengthen my creations resistance to Orcrox and the races through the battle against such forces, but if left unchecked it could corrupt my entire creation.
Staring at Origin I realize something.
Their awfully fragile aren’t they.

Midthalion Saga
+++Working on new chapters. Share what I've posted with your friends and family! Be sure to build strong bonds with those who are important to you. We only have each other in this world for so long!+++ Can Roderick XXIII gather together and train a party of adventurers to clear out Madeon Caves and bring peace to the wildmarches of Midthalion? Sent from his home monastery in the west to the wildmarches of Midthalion, Roderick the Holy Avenger is devoted to living out his oath to bring the Holy Light to the dark corners of the world. He enlists the help of an old friend, Ulrich Vogelbrandt the dwarf druid, to train and prepare a fighting force capable of defending the west from the evil they both see gathering and growing in the east. Eoroth is an ode to Tolkienesque epic fantasy, Robert E Howard and H.P. Lovecraft's pulp fiction, and Gygaxian Dungeons & Dragons. I like to write about serious topics because I think it's fun. I hope it makes for a fun read. Place: Eoroth, a vast, flat world with many continents set in oceans that reach out and mingle with the Celestial Sea. Our story takes place on the continent of Thalion in the middle, unsettled region called Midthalion. Peoples: Races in Eoroth aren't different species; the species of man is just incredibly diverse, consisting of many known races (and perhaps some unknown). There are no humans in Thalion. Thalion's races include variations of elves, dwarves, halflings (billowits), pierros (clownish men), bergeracs (long-nosed and swarthy men of honour), orcs, trolls, goblins, and hobgobs. The Church: There's one dominant religion in Westhalion. The faith of the elves is an analogue to Roman Catholicism while the dwarves practice an Eastern Orthodox analogue. (Forgive me for not having figured out names yet.) The practitioners worship a triune god (the All-Father, Son-of-All, and Holy Light). There are many powers in heaven, all created by God. These include the Twelve High Thrones, individual, created beings who take on the role of guiding mankind in different aspects, drawing them closer and closer to God. (That should be the essentials. I could write pages on the theology. Comment where something's unclear in the story.) Natural World: There are plants and animals in Eoroth, but the world is also inhabited by spirits called aeons. Aeons are transformative beings; in the wild, they'll change based on whatever is happening nearby. Pollute a pond? Expect to see toxic toad-men running around. Leave a bunch of dead bodies strewn across a battlefield? Expect the place to become haunted with ghouls and ghasts. Druids are important for making sure that the aeons are pacified; that their needs are met so that they don't become rampaging monsters. Where the wilderness becomes overgrown, so too do the aeons. Aeons and People: Long ago, men learned how to trap aeons in stone tablets and use them for war. Now, anyone can capture an aeon into a special staff made by a druid. Men train, raise, and bond with these aeons. Druids often build entire ranches devoted to raising healthy aeons as allies and companions. Aeons are divided into twelve known families, and the church sees these as corresponding with the Twelve Thrones in Heaven. Direction: My goal is to get the story to one million words by June next year. I have tons of content in mind for the world. I want to release novels set in different ages of the world depicting different historical events. I hope to expand the setting into a tabletop role-playing game as well as a series of old-school JRPGs. But, it all begins with writing some stories and publishing my novels.
