The world was finally advanced enough that they could travel easily through space. Scientists and astronomers had charted and planned routes to other, livable planets in fear that anything was to happen, but surely nothing would happen! They were wrong. Deep within the earth stirred a beast of magic and wonder and evil, a creation of the lost elements of the humans. It rampaged throughout the mantle, speeding up the currents of the magma and breaking through to the surface of the earth. Within days the place had been rampaged, and in their haste, the people managed to get away on prepared ships chock full of every book, report, document-- everything that could be put on a document had been put on a document in a little microchip and stored in boxes. And so the people left.

The nearest planet they found was a large and beautiful one where the sky was in an eternal shimmer of blue, green, violet, and orange and the sunsets vibrant red. The grass was teal and all over glimmered cities of gold and silver. At first they were punished for being there, chastised by the local species with skin the color of the grass and three fingers and many pairs of eyes on their elongated faces. The leaders of the human race were confused and then the real trouble came; the dragons. After fighting and fighting with the Alpha of the dragons, their goddess, the humans were granted permission to stay on their world so long as they stayed away from the dragon cities.

And so they did. Nearly two thousand years passed without much technological growth. When the Alpha offered to check on the status of their old planet-- having wanting them gone-- she found that it was safe to return to. Three new continents covered the earth with an overabundance of islands. Those two thousand years were nearly two million years on earth!

A portal was created and they were given passage home. As a leaving present, the humans were given a large colony of wild dragons (small, dumb dragon slaves) and a thousand intelligent dragons willing-- and wanting-- to leave their home.

Created in a large circle was the land of Zurraith. It was split into four sections, so defined it was like someone had built walls between them. In the south the section of land had broken away like a slice taken from a piece of pie; in the east was a vast desert with mountains so tall that they were lush and snowy; in the north was a jungle; and in the west was a beautiful green grassland. The humans and dragons settled in the grasslands and let their wild dragons walk free.

Three groups emerged from those settlers;

• Zurraithans, a medley of different people who kept up traditions from old earth. 
• Illdians, a group of people who thought that the French had the superior race. 
• Willkians, a group of people who were hesitant to stray from the German language.

In Zurraith were 15 provinces. Each was led by a king and queen and often they were at war with each other. Illdians have 10 states, but they prefer to stay out of each other's business. Willkians have 5 territories ruled by a dictatorship. It was not for thousands of years that an actual Government was set in place! And when the Government and Prison were created, so was Zurraith Mountain, a pyramid built by the dragons in the heart of Zurraith. The dragons then retired from being leaders of the human race and let them work on their own.

Around the same time the Government was created, a man named Aeloz caused problems. His king wanted to be the best king and to be the best king, he thought it best to send his personal assistant out to collect a dragon soul. There was only one resting place of the dragons, a seemingly endless pool of water in the jungle. But he and his dragon partner found it. They were so close to their goal and the dragon died when all of the souls in the pool broke loose. Aeloz became what was later called a 'host', the most common species on Zurrwak.
