Chapter 251 The First Men [2]
"In the beginning, no race possessed special talents, nor could we control the elements. All we relied on were our archaic weapons, brute strength and natural racial traits to fend off beasts, farm and survive. That was the First Age."
Lord Winter sighed, his gaze lifting toward the altar. Asher followed his line of sight, curious, as if Lord Winter could see the era he spoke of.
"In that peaceful age, all races knew the Creator, whose name was I Am. They built temples to please him. But I Am did not want to conflict with his creations, so he left us to our own devices. One fateful day, however, he was pleased by four brothers playing near a temple—a temple nestled in the heart of the Dragon Lair Mountains, where the dragons once dwelt. Out of love, I Am blessed them."
"Humans lived alongside dragons?" Asher raised an eyebrow in disbelief.
Lord Winter glanced at him with a faint smile. "No. At that time, those mountains were called the Endless Mountain Range. Dragons had not yet been created."
Asher's eyes widened, his pupils trembling. He couldn't believe the idea that humans were older than dragons!
