V. The Fall of Sharath

(30,000 - 25,000 years ago)

Over time, the Dhe'nar fell victim to the same circumstances that drove them away from the elves so many years ago. The Temple, the Magi, and the Warrior castes began to vie for power internally and the political treachery that ensued was devastating. In a bold political move, the Priests of the Temple proclaimed that they themselves were "gods" and that their wishes were to be followed over all others. Though there were many opposed to this, anyone disagreeing with the temple was brutally sacrificed to set an example for the others, and over time most of the Temple's opponents were either slain or went into hiding. The Temple sealed Shialos du S'karli and the entrance was hidden. To go anywhere near the library would mean certain death at a priest's hands.
