Some elves and dwarves alive in the setting now probably lived to see the end of it.Similar to Greek myth, there are titans and gods, gods being younger beings. The titans are primordial creatures with an innate connection to the world. The titans were capricious and aloof creators who were responsible for the creation of many (most?) races, but endangered all lesser lifeforms as well. The gods united (good and evil) and took down all titans but one, Denev, who sided with their cause. But the titans are immortal and cannot be truly slain, but are imprisoned in some manner.This struggle left its mark on the lands. Landscape features and phenomena show the marks of this struggle. Races have been altered because of this struggle (the elven deity was slain and the creatures known as high elves became "forsaken elves", cursed to be unable to bear children), and races remain that were faithful children of the titans, and actively struggle to restore their masters and undermine the children of the gods.</blockquote>
