The Oblivion War

"War. War never changes. Except for this war, it changed a lot of Paru."

-High Wikimancer Rhia

In a century not far past, a mortal by the name of Zal the White rose to challenge for a place among the gods. The gods protested and began a centuries-long war with the mortal. He brought ferocious and devious weapons to bear; divination, wishes, and most horrible of all, necromancy. At the end of the war, Zal was destroyed and all memory of him, his power and his legacy were stricken from the minds of mortals and immortals alike, any evidence of their existence as artifacts made obscure, now known as cryptic items.

Only after years of wandering, the survivors on all sides who had lost all knowledge of who they were having lived only in this ancient war bound together in the first Iron Inquisition. The Iron March, as they soon became known, sought to seal and destroy any remnants of the war for the better of the people, their ideal being that if they were denied their lives, they would stand between anything that would deny peaceful lives to others as a penance for a crime they are unsure that they committed.
