  The Fourth world, finally, was dedicated to predation and to survival of the fittest. It was populated with fierce creatures and predators. Two of Her children believed this was the best way to live and decided to live in this world.
  
  After the worlds were created, only four children of Gaea still preferred to live in the Void: two because they weren't interested in any of those worlds, and two because they liked all of them and preferred to visit them whenever they wished.

  ====Age of Awakening====
  
  And for a few million years Gaea delighted in observing the differences between the worlds. But still the creatures were not self-aware, and still SHE was lonely. So when Her children came and said they were lonely and wanted to create more interesting creatures, SHE understood them and quickly allowed them and gave them the power to do it.
  
- So on the First world, one of the Gods who lived there created a race of beings that loved peace and wildlife, and called them [[races:Elves]]. The other God in that world didn't choose to create followers, but she teached language to the Elves of her brother, and when the Elves larned the art of naming, they named their creator [[gods:Lythander]], and in exchange for his name he gifted them with luck.

  On the Second world, one of the Gods created a race of builders and named them [[races:Dwarves]]. His children, in turn, named him [[gods:Mostrai]]. His sister, in turn, decided not to create, but teach some of the dwarves (the ones willing to learn) about magic and the powers of the gods. The other dwarves, however, didn't accept their changed siblings, so they went off to live by themselves and became known as [[races:gnomes]].
  
  On the Third world, of course, none of the resident Gods wanted to cooperate with the other. Both created their own races: the God who fought for darkness created many kinds of fierce, brutal monsters he named "Demons", while the God who fought for light created many kinds of skillful, swift warriors he named "Angels". Befittingly, these Gods were named by their enemies, and not their followers: the demons gave the light god the name of "[[gods:Valriel]]", and the angels gave their enemy god the name "[[gods:Gorokh]]".
  
  And on the Fourth world, the patron Gods kept true to their philosophy and created not one, but innumerable races, in the hope that one of these would prove the strongest and most worth. So they created goblins, trolls, ogres, and not least, [[races:dragons]]. The Gods became known as [[gods:Gnarg|Gnarg, the Patron of Assassins]], [[gods:Ruggilli|Ruggilli, the Consuming Worm]], and [[gods:Ixalovh]].
  
  The races in the four worlds lived on for millenia, and developed, and grew, and all worlds flourished. The eight patron gods believed this was proof that they were right, and the way they lived was the best one, while the two traveling gods rather believed that the success of all the worlds was instead proof of the wisdom and power of their Mother.

  ====Age of Death====
  
  But at some point things started to go wrong. Angels and demons would start to become priests or scholars or merchants and preach against the war. Dwarves and gnomes would start go grow sedentary and admire the crafts of the past instead of building new ones. Goblinoids would suddenly develop a taste for vegetables and become farmers, while dragons would decide that developing their magics was more important than finding food. But what was wrong was a mistery that would only begin to unfold when the High King of the elves, one day, was devoured by a dragon.
