In the ancient past, when Falyimoar had a much colder and inhospitable temperament, a race of giant humanoids lived across all of Falyimoar. Lead by their gods and fueled by frequents wars with one another, these giants took to building massive fortresses all across Falyimoar to protect their cities. In their fight for conquest, a group of the southern giants tamed massive flying beasts, giving them rule over the skies.

The remnants of these giants societies and the scares of their battle can be found all around the continent. Accompanying the disappearance of the giants can the rise of the smaller humanoid races. They came across the sea, having out grown the resources of their old homes, they journeyed in search of a new place to call home. Finding a war torn but plentiful land these new peoples sought to end the conflict between the giants, by any means possible.

After a few generations in this new land, a human warrior arose amongst the people, bent on bringing peace, by killing the gods that ruled over Falyimoar

After years of being denied access to the world outside the forest, Vander's mother was fed up with being stuck inside all her life, came up with plan to sneak out of the forest. She would sneak out the night of the full moon, during a ritual her clan performs when the moon is at its brightest. Almost all of the clan will gather for ritual, leading to a decrease of moon elves in the forest who might recognize her.

When the day of the full moon came she put her plan into action, she volunteered to join the guard on evening watch and snuck out after the changing of the guard just after nightfall. She headed east, toward the exit of the valley, passing though the ancient valley, scared by wars fought long ago. After about a months travel she had made it to the mouth of the valley, slowed by avoiding those sent after her and by letting her curiosity about the ancient ruins keep her from her travels. By the time she had made it to the mouth the next full moon was about to rise.
