===The Drums of War (4,500 years ago)=== | ===The Drums of War (4,500 years ago)=== | ||
The Kalean people braced for war as their rulers massed armies and weapons to use against one another. Feudal terror continued as the nobles were allowed to do as they pleased and the people still suffered unimaginably. | |||
When war finally did come the result was four hundred and thirty years of ceaseless conflict. Secular, religious, wars of all kinds sprung up in this period and due to regimes constantly being formed, dissolved, restored and toppled again, very little in the way of official documentation has survived from this period. | |||
However in the darks of the Hollows a secret group of scholars from every corner of Lazow convened to pursue their research free of the constant warfare and interference from their respective rulers. This group would later be known as The Court, and while it's existence would not be known to the greater populace for over four thousand years, The Court advanced Kalean domestic and civil technology instead of building new weapons. Their inventions would then be attributed to an intermediary of the order who would introduce them into wider society. | |||
Eventually as science began to take hold of the wider populace, the Kalean commoners started to question the legitimacy of their ruler's oppression and the seeds of dissent started to be planted within the minds of Kaleans, though it would take a few hundred more years for lasting change to come about. | |||
