Great Treaty
TLC 01/15, 17
Treaty created by Oricerans after the Great War that destroyed much of every realm, except Atlantiis
“Thousands of years ago, all the different kingdoms of Oriceran were at each other’s throat over as many different disputes, some of them even forgotten. Still, the fighting continued and everyone lost people they loved.”The war raged on for hundreds of years, across generations and over many lands.
Eventually, a treaty was proposed. Not the first time that had happened, but this one came from the prophets., like your Supreme Court. A ruling body that serves for life with a member from every society. They oversee everything on Oriceran, across our world. Everyone was weary of hating their neighbor by then, and there was almost unanimous acceptance.
However, one tribe, the Atlanteans, refused to even listen. They were a privileged race who did their best to forestall the treaty. They were suspected of using their dark magic to plant seeds of jealousy and hatred in the different kingdomsThe Atlanteans saw that the treaty was gaining ground and they did the unthinkable. They used a kind of dark magic that has only been used once before and was forbidden, even during the wars. They tried to send the prophets to the world in between. A nether world that is full of the living and the dead where nothing ever happens and no one ages. The kings from all the realms, all across Oriceran, finally came together and in a battle that raged for days, weeks even, they managed to kill the Atlanteans and Rhazdon. After that, lasting peace came to Oriceran. Their magic, their books, their potions, all of it was taken and locked away by the prophets. Gnomes protect it to this day.
The three most important points of the treaty concern the sectioning of the lands between the different kingdoms, the respect for life and property, equally for everyone, and the ban on opening portals between Oriceran and Earth before the next Gold Age. They were all put into place for the security and well-being of everyone on Oriceran.
