It was a world like any other with the same echoes as the rest. Keep the original idea of the halfling history from the Dark Sun lore, but include dragons in the way back times. But one dragon gets jealous and starts hoarding power. It starts killing off the other dragons and taking their power. It keeps going and going. Destroying the other dragons of Athas. Wiping them out. All of them. It gets so powerful it challenges the gods. And to keep this dragon from slaughtering the gods and all the other dragons on all the other worlds the gods and dragons seal off Athas. The dragon flips and starts rampaging across Athas. The halflings have to create arcane magic and defiling to stop the dragon. They finally defeat it, but the land is ravaged. Not as bad as “present day” Athas, but it’s the start. Eons later, Rajaat’s Champions learn of the dragon and try to emulate its power. But they are only pale shadows in comparison.</p></blockquote><p></p>
