After The Great Hatching, the Realms were a Utopia, filled with Light magic. Only Elves, High Bears, Beenu, Dragon Aspects, wild unintelligent Kobolds, and Divine Beings lived in the lands. Elves and High Bears could not be physically harmed, and were immortal. However, due to the choices of the old gods, the Dragon Aspect Phanto died crystallizing and becoming the Moon. This upset the balance of the Light magic, which caused it to split into other magics, in the event known as The Birth of Magic. These varied from the lighter magics, such as Earth and Fire, down to the darkest magics, such as Ice, Arcane, and Dark magic itself. After the Birth of Magic, not only were the old races no longer immortal, but many new races were created (Most by Thor), such as Dwarves, non-wild Kobolds, Porcs, Forn, and Shellmind. Gnomes also appeared after The Birth of Magic, but is is unknown who they were created by.
